    Summary

    Throughout a multiverse of opportunities, there is a certain level of stability that one needs, in order to form a discrete identity within that soup.

    In which the Patrician has... a time, several times in a row, and Samuel Vimes is an incredibly convenient form of stability.

    Sam and Havelock or Lady Sybil the Patrician by

    Summary

    In an infinite number of universes everything is possible and in one of them the city of Ankh-Morpork is ruled by Lady Sybil the Patrician, while Samuel Vimes finds himself marrying an assassin named Havelock Vetinari.
    I sort of cheated and assumed that the main events in the Discworld series still happen (like the promotion, the crimes Vimes has to deal with, etc), and wrote a bunch of scenes that - in my mind - happen throughout. I tried to put them in chronological order.

    Summary

    Against the dark, Vetinari saw the Commander’s outline writhe in place, and the red symbol partially disappeared as Vimes obscured its glow beneath his hand.

    “Sir—” Vimes spoke through gritted teeth, though his voice was returned to normal, “—please stop baiting the godsdamned thing!”

    “I was only making conversation,” Vetinari replied.

    Summary

    When they realise they're the only two people in the city who know a certain secret about their bosses, Angua and Drumknott form an unlikely alliance.

    A support group, if you will.

    Alright, this started as a bit of a joke, but now it exists and it is also now - finally - complete.

    It runs alongside canon so there's spoilers for Fifth Elephant, Jingo and The Truth.
