    Summary

    'What is the current tally, Commander?' asked the Patrician coolly.

    'Casualties are coming close to four hundred, sir,' said Vimes. He hesitated. 'We won't know the full death count for some time.'

    'Of course,' he said. 'The sinking of the SS Wincanton has become firmly a recovery mission by this hour,'—and now Lord Vetinari turned away from the window to face the two men —'Or else the Commander and I would still be at the scene. Isn't that so, Mr. Slip?'

    Mr. Jack Slip, lead chairman of the Ankh-Morpork Steamship Company, was a smart man. That was after all how he had gotten to this point in his life. He nodded, said, 'Yes, my lord,' and said no more.

    'I would like to discuss today's events, Mr. Slip,' said Lord Vetinari, 'and what your options are, moving forward.'

    Summary

    Would you hide a part of yourself? You might do it if that part scared you. After a while, you might get good at hiding your secrets and past. Grian had experience with that sort of thing, and now he must do it once again — but it’s so much harder this time.

    Summary

    AU in which demons are from the Nether, humans are from the overworld, and angels hail from the End. Elytras don't exist; only angels can fly.

    But there are legends, tales of the very bravest of souls that have crossed the chasm between worlds, and come back with wings of their own, granted the power to be seen as an angel. Grian finds himself tempted, to find them for himself and no longer have to suffer the judgement of being a demon.
    What he doesn't know, though - there are no wings that do not already belong to another. And though he may have found what he was searching for, he may come to regret his decision when the angel whose wings he unintentionally stole turns out to be his new neighbor.
