The Childrens Crusade

by evilphrog

I set out to make a brief crackfic based on this tumblr post about how Nobby and Vetinari probably knew each other as children. It ended up being far more sincere than anything with that premise has any right to be.

Like Tigers

by CorrineWrites

It has been noted that the importance of Unseen University relies not on the institution's teaching of young wizards how to use magic, but rather on it's teaching old wizards not to. Nobby and Colon, with help and instruction from Commander Vimes, are well versed in how to not fight.

A Long Walk To The

by CorrineWrites

Nobby Nobbs saw Death as a reassuring figure as the years passed; if Death was here, then there mustn't be any of Nobby's friends in need of his shepherding to the afterlife, right? But what happens when Death isn't where Nobby expects him to be?

Balancing Act

by Zakalwe

Nobby slowed as he approached the cell.“Morning, sir!” he said brightly.“Morning, Nobby,” said Vimes, as if he hadn’t killed someone last night..........................................................................................................................................................................................His Grace, the Duke of Ankh has had better weeks, and old feelings are making everything...confusing. Just how far will his loyalty stretch when he's pushed to his limit...?

Personal Advice

Nobby’s been worrying about his romantic potential when he and Sergeant Colon join Lord Vetinari and Leonard of Quirm on the journey to Klatch. Nobody’s been very understanding so far, but Leonard seems nice enough (and a much safer option than Vetinari).
