Listen, I hear what you’re saying, but Young Sam being the deadly combo of his mother’s powerful Ladies Who Organize tendencies, and his father’s stubborn anti-authority pragmatism makes him an ideal community organizer. He’s cheerful and unflagging and drinks coffee at a rate that would impress even Maladict; he has a dartsboard in his office with an iconograph of Lord Downey II pinned to it, and when asked his response is invariably a chilly, “he knows what he did.”

When you look deeply in his eyes you can see the abyss looking back.

(It wants to know if you’ve signed that petition yet.)

#discworld #………look mostly I want a discworld novel about young vimes grappling with his own kind of guarding dark #a guarding dark that protects against a more slippery kind of dark; a waiting dark #cool and patient and careless; as in it doesn’t care about the blood or the death or the cost—it only seeks to further its own darkness #the kind of darkness that lingers in locked bank vaults and unsafe mines and private clubs; places where the darkness is a feature #rather than something to be guarded against #yes exactly I want sam vimes the second Kicks Off The Labor Movement #the Vimes Boots Theory of Wealth Inequality deserves nothing less #also I couldn’t figure out how to turn it into a joke #but the reason you can’t call it “grassroots” politics is because there isn’t any grass in ankh-morpork #“cobblestone level” politics is the closest they get @notbecauseofvictories

cobblestone politics: you pick one up and throw it at the rich bastards keeping you down. then you pick up another one.

sam senior could find his way in the fog by the feel of the cobbles under his boots. sam junior is also an expert on cobbles; he’s just a bit more proactive about it.

(i would read the living hell out of a book about young sam the labor organizer, and the discworld equivalent of pinkertons trying to break a strike by trolls and dwarves. my god it would be magnificent.)
