The kid looked up. There was a girl watching them. People were passing up and down the street, and some of them walked between the kid and the girl, but she stood stock still and just stared at him. And at Maurice. She had the same nail-you-to-the-wall look that he associated with Peaches. She looked like the kind of person who asked questions. And her hair was too red and her nose was too long. And she wore a long black dress with black lace fringing. No good comes of that sort of thing.

Prompts time! Had a couple requests for Lady Sybil! And then I added Vimes! And then it got rather romantic <3
I like to think this is just after they get back home, after some sort of official to-do (I imagine the helmet with plumes and the wig are discarded somewhere in a corner XD)
@stuffbyshelby2 and @koncussionkat, thanks for the Sybil prompts!

"It went by the name of the Luggage. Why it consented to be owned by Rincewind was something only the Luggage knew, and it wasn't telling, but no other item in the entire chronicle of travel accessories had quite such a history of mystery and grievous bodily harm."
My right wrist hurt like Buggery today, so please enjoy A left-handed Luggage to mark what would have been Terry Pratchett's 75th birthday
Can we hear some love for my favorite cringe-fail wiz(z)ard RINCEWIND in the chat!!! He’s been my role model for going on 7 years now and I don’t know how I’d have gotten here without him (bonus The Luggage doodle for my fellow discheads)
