And because the Good Omens brain rot spilled over into Terry Pratchett’s other books, here’s a couple little “Mort” Ysabell and Mort inspired sketches

…

(It spilled over into Neil Gaiman’s other works too, so now I’m reading Sandman and Reaper Man simultaneously)

"I wouldn't marry you if you were the last man on the Disc," she said sweetly.

Mort was hurt by this. It was one thing not to want to marry someone, but quite another to be told they didn't want to marry you.

Terry Pratchett, Mort

I was thinking about Discworld couples for a Discworld group chats Valentine's ship fest, and I've noticed a sort of running theme among the couples Terry Pratchett writes. Much to think about....

Bonus times ot3 because they technically aren't canon but also I couldn't NOT include them

[ID: 6 variations on the "me and the bad bitch I pulled by being autistic" meme with Discworld couples cuddling or holding hands. The featured couples are: Carrot and Angua, Sybil and Vimes, Tiffany and Preston (caption changed to plural pronouns to reflect their autism 4 autism power couple status). Then Mort and Ysabell, Death and miss Flitworth, and finally Otto Sacharissa and William (caption changed to pluralize bitches) end ID]

“I'VE NOTICED THE WAY YOU TWO ALWAYS AVOID EACH OTHER. He gave Mort a conspiratorial nudge – it was like being poked with a stick – and added, ALBERT'S TOLD ME WHAT THAT MEANS.”

[ID: Five rough pencil sketches on a lined notebook page, all of characters from Mort by Terry Pratchett. Starting from the top left, the first sketch is of Mort. He is standing in a stuff neutral position with a worried expression on his face. He has slightly shaggy, curly hair and is wearing a sleeveless tunic with a shirt underneath, rolled up to his sleeves, and trousers stuffed into knee-high boots. He is also wearing a cape with the hood down, which is obscuring one of his arms. The second sketch is of Ysabell, who is standing with her arms on her hips with an annoyed expression. She has long wavy hair, and is wearing a long empire-style dress with a square neckline, slippers, and elbow length gloves. The third drawing is of Keli, who is standing with her arms crossed looking affronted. She is wearing a long corseted dress, with long bell sleeves with a sharp puff at the shoulder. She has straight hair in layers, with some hair flicking out at her ears while some goes down past her shoulders. She is wearing a tiara. The last two images only show the characters from the waist up. The fourth is of Cutwell, who is has slumped shoulders and a vaguely confused expression. He has short black hair and is wearing a wizard hat and gown with stars on it. The last sketch is of Albert, who is hunched over with an annoyed expression. He has thin hair tied up in a bun and is wearing a plain shirt and sweater and trousers. Each character has an arrow with writing pointing to them. For Mort, it reads ‘gradually losing his humanity’. For Ysabell; ‘Been 16 for 35 years’. For Keli; ‘The universe thinks she’s dead’. For Cutwell; ‘Literally just wants some food’. And for Albert; ‘Has enemies waiting for him in hell’. /End ID]

Thank you so much @verdigrispatina!

It's practically Hogswatch so lets ramble about the Sto Helit family!!!

Despite how dormant my Discworld writing is atm Im always full of Thoughts, and much like with Moist von Lipwig, if I sit and think too long about the Sto Helits and Death family I just find myself emotionally compromised

They're so needlessly wacky and dysfunctional I swear!!

Anyways one of these days within the ♬ﾟThe Sto Helit Family ♪♪♪♪ [snap snap] series I'm going to write several 'little' fics exploring Ysabell and Lady Sybil's friendship - I'm convinced they were at least penpals (and that they met during Ysabell and Mort's wedding) And with that leads to so many IMPLICATIONS and juicy tidbits to discover

Like...were they at Sybil and Vimes's wedding? Were they there?!?! Was it them that suggested to Death to try and be more approachable (causing him to try doing knock knock jokes of all things??)

Textually we don't know, obviously, there is only one small throw away line in Men at Arms that hints to Lady Sybil's friendship with the Duke and Duchess of Sto Helit (when she's telling Sam she knows a nice young couple in search of a new captain of the guard)

But in my little sand box world we are taking that line and Firmly Grasping It haha

Also, because I think it would be absolutely uncomfortably hilarious, I would LOVE to find the time to write Dinner Party Fic - in which Ysabell and Mort attend a fancy dinner party (either hosted by them, or at the Ramkin estate) where there's a death at the party which turns into a very quirky Who Done It. Cue Vimes considering Mort as suspect number 1, much to Sybil's chagrin, and Death finding this very interesting indeed. Spoiler, it wasn't Mort lol I don't know still who the real perpetrator will be...tempted to make it natural causes hahaha

Anyways here's a little snippet:

Vimes observed this so called Duke, he had been to many of his wife’s dinner parties and felt that he Knew The Type - yet this Duke didn’t seem very, well, Duke-y. That is to say, the Duke of Sto Helit didn’t fill out the first imagined picture that would pop into his head when he thought Duke. Instead the picture was more ‘flying by the seat of my pants’-esque. Vimes grinned. This was interesting. Sure the Duke of Sto Helit occasionally looked around like he was searching for a handbook on how to be a nob, but ever so often he would give a Look. Not like the sort Assasins would give which was calculating how much it would cost to get you killed, but something all together different. The cost didn’t matter it was bound to happen eventually.

Also ALSO imagine after Ysabell and Mort's death, in which Sybil tries to reach out to Susan OOF I don't think that would be easy.

Yet through it all, I think it would be funny if Vimes doesn't fully Get that the Sto Helits have a literal connection to Death, like yeah there's rumors and a little blurb in Twerps Peerage we know textually exists due to Hogfather - but would Vimes even want to know? Or care?? Despite Vimes and Death's continuous 'near Vimes experiences'?? I haven't decided yet! We'll figure that out together I suppose haha

in OTHER news... here's a The Runaway's Gamble spoiler presented with little to no context!

«You know in my previous incarnation I was once a rain god?» "What does that have to do with messages?" asked Susan. «Not too much I suppose. Not a lot of writing on rain drops.» The joke fell flat before Susan's deadpan. The deity pressed on, unfazed: «There is of course, some sort of symbology in it. A message of well, crops growing, life continuing etc etc…then an explosion happened and, well, old god new tricks, turned into the moisture of caves, promise of running water - lot of life symbology in water.» "And?" «Well things certainly get quite chthonic in a cave - one thing led to another, and BAM part of the chthonic subsection B under paragraph 34-7 depicting the chthonic agreement.» "I'm starting to loose my patience here," said Susan quite levelly, "what does this have to do with you having a letter from my mother?" Once Rain God now Messenger, among a load of other things, Fedecks beamed and spaked thusly: «Psychopomp. Messenger and Psychopomp.» "Oh."

AaAAaAaAaaAnd tada! I'm sorry for always teasing things with this fic, I promise I'm working on it!! It's one of my 2024 goals to actually finish it haha

˗ˋˏ ♡ ˎˊ˗Thank you so much for your question!! Happy Hogswatch! ˗ˋˏ ♡ ˎˊ˗

I'm proud to say I've finished reading my first Discworld book, Mort, and I rather liked it. I was on the fence about jumping into the series; I started reading The Colour of Magic a few years ago, but the sheer amount of Proper Nouns and Fantasy Gibberish were too much to keep me invested beyond the first chapter. I guess that was the point of the early series, more trope parody than plot.

I'm gonna focus on the Death subseries for now rather than start the witches or Rincewind or the city watch. I'm not sure I want to read a book about a man named Moist, though I've gathered he's a fan favorite (at least a favorite of the fans I happen to follow), whoever he is. Spoilers, but I've picked up some things through osmosis and I think it's a damn shame Mort and Ysabell don't make any other appearances. That feels like missed potential on Pterry's part. I'm sure their daughter will be very interesting to read about when I get to Soul Music, but to me this feels like if Douglas Adams had killed off Arthur Dent between Hitchhiker's Guide and Restaurant at the End of the Universe. Sorry, the main character's not a character any more.

Ysabell was heavily into frills. Even the dressing table seemed to be wearing a petticoat. The whole room wasn’t so much furnished as lingeried.

Finished reading Mort for the first time and was surprised to see a cameo of Rincewind, who I haven't read the Wizard collection yet of Discworld. But the way Terry Pratchett describes him as "the man had a desperate scuffed look, like something out for laundry" (pg 241). So that means my man Rincewind is supposed to look a sad wet man barely hanging onto the clothesline. I can't wait to read The Color of Magic than to see this sad pathetic man in action.

'At least I walk as if my legs only had one knee each,' she said.

'My eyes aren't two juugly poached eggs.'

Ysabell nodded. 'On the other hand, my ears don't look like something growing on a dead tree. What does juugly mean?'

'You know, eggs like Albert does them.'

'With the white all sticky and runny and full of slimy bits?'

'Yes.'

"Ah, your highness!" The small figure of Ysabell pitter-pattered into Sakura's paror, a board smile to the gentle maiden's face. "Apologies for the delay this morning, I passed Sir Michael on the way, & he bid me give this to you."

From her hands, the maiden held out what appeared to be a golden-brown pair of flowers, their likeness of that of lilies, but with the color & how short their stems were, this flowers were not quite that.

"They are flowers from our homeland, Erdleaf flowers. Plentiful in the Lands Between, but nearly impossible to find anywhere else, I'm not sure how he got his hands on them, the sir must have pulled some elaborate strings." Ysabell explained, with wondering thought. "Shall we get them a vase, your highness?"

@vixlenxe

What strange lillies... golden brown and slightly wilted, but he could feel just how special they are. Perhaps because he had never seen anything like it. "Erdleaf flowers? They are... they are beautiful..." he murmured. And a gift from Sir Michael... it made the princess blush gently.

"Ah, yes a vase would be a good idea..." he smiled after a moment staring at them, as if trying to reach out with his heart to speak with them. He did not know much about them, or the homeland of Ysabel and Michael, but the Lands Between was quite a strange... and oddly beautiful place.

"...I will need to repay him for such a lovely gift... I have never seen a flower like this in all my life... I look forward to learning more about it.
