Summary
William de Worde was not a romantic by nature, in either sense of the word.
Sprawling, verdant grasslands blanketed with daisies, enclosed by majestic pines, standing tall against the barrage of time, while a brook babbled softly in the background, did about as much for him revelation-wise as a half-eaten day-old curry from the Klatchian takeaway next door. He also wasn't one for dating.
Which was why Sacharissa’s insistence on the Times promoting the new fad of a holiday based entirely around mushy feelings and romantic gestures came much to his dismay.
(William, Sacharissa and Otto interview Ankh-Morpork’s couples about their relationships, and try their very hardest not to think about their own.)

“My mother told me the tale of Erebor once when I was young."
Thorin startles slightly.
“I did not realize it was so famous among hobbits,” he says after several seconds.
“Oh, it isn’t. My mother was...a story collector, of sorts. I don’t think any hobbit would even know the story now, save for me. I remember thinking when I first heard it how awful it must have been for the dwarves who lost everything that day.” Bilbo finally looks over at Thorin. “I am sorry for what you’ve gone through.”
Thorin holds his eye, expression unreadable, before he ducks his head in acknowledgment.

Growing up, Bilbo never thought his penchant for storytelling would have such far-reaching consequences.

Summary
A platter of ham sandwiches and assorted snacks tested gravity on Vetinari’s forearm. He was wearing - ye gods, he was wearing sandals and sunglasses. Black sandals and black sunglasses.
Vimes’s mouth dropped open. “Respectfully, sir,” he said, gesturing vaguely at Vetinari’s entire being, “what the fuck.”
(Vimes and Vetinari spend a day at the beach.)

Summary
KIM KITSURAGI – He moves his hand as if to touch his side but stops just shy of nylon. “Do not let me bleed out. Please.”
EMPATHY [Easy: Success] – Even though he has long since accepted that he will ultimately die doing this job, something in Kim is desperate. It’s hurting him just to keep breathing, hurting him more to express the desperation. You know because you were here too, at the opposite end of the year, in the opposite end of winter, with the roles reversed.
INLAND EMPIRE [Heroic: Failure] – Both of you getting shot in ‘51 must be a bad omen.
