"A fey mood struck me"
Thank goodness you got the materials you needed! :D

"[/size=.75em][1]: Yes, I know that grammatical construct grinds your gears, Zippy. : P"
You appear to have a problem with the size tagging here.

Excellent. :D

(And trolls have rock farms?)

Tagging problem? What problem? I can quit anytime I like! (Fixed)

And yes, it is rather convenient that the proper materials were on-hand. I might have gone mad if I didn't have a working phone and internet connection available. :derpytongue2:

Glad you liked it.

And the rock farms are run by whichever enterprising sophonts care to go into the business.

Bit surprised Gabby didn't actually appear, but this was a short piece.

And I'm definitely favouriting this. :)

Hm, interesting. I wonder how exactly they work on the Disc?

8622149
Thanks for the fave! Don't let me detain you.

Oh, this is going to be a most fun collection. Are you accepting submissions?

Not really a fan of Discworld series but I give this a read.

That was funny.

Glad you enjoyed yourself, despite not being a fan of the source material.

This seems like a fun dive into the Disc. :twilightsmile:

Heh, "hitting copy/paste on another realm" is actually a fairly good explanation for "Type B" crossovers. It means the characters were not "displaced", as such, merely duplicated and integrated into the new setting. Which means...

- Celestia's and Luna's jobs are a whole lot more interesting here.

- Rainbow Dash can easily outfly the speed of light, which is pretty slow in DiscWorld. Makes me wonder how an outside observer would perceive a Sonic Rainboom, versus what Dash herself would see.

- Books bend spacetime. ...I can't help but imagine Twilight is actually at least 100 years removed from her original time (in either direction), when she got lost in the science-section of the library as a filly. :derpyderp2:

- Books = Knowledge = Power = (Force x Distance ÷ Time). We all know that books bend spacetime. But books only do so because of the knowledge they contain. Knowledge bends spacetime. Twilight reads books with a passion, absorbing all that knowledge, concentrating it in one single place. ...And that's how Twilight Sparkle almost became known as "Black Hole", instead. :twilightoops:

- The Elements of Harmony, the Tree of Harmony... are, if present here, only one among a plethora of powerful magicks. So... would they even be on the top of the food chain, here? Just wondering if "we will use the Elements of Harmony on the villain" would be the 100%-works-all-the-time McGuffin it'd be in Equestria. ...And in the end, the day is saved by the town guard instead. :derpytongue2:

- Do the town guard accept ponies? :raritywink:

...So yeah, I am hoping to see more eventually. :twilightsmile:

A lot of excellent ideas I'll have to file away for later. I'd already had plans for somepony to join the Guard, much to Vimes's dismay. Well, at least until his assumptions hit the fan.

Please write more of this, is hilarious and oh so close to the source material :twilightsmile:

9365036
That is high praise, indeed. Here's hoping my muse kicks me hard enough to drop some more stuff here. Might need to read more Discworld first, though... Oh well.

9039562
Sounds about right. And the ankh morpork guard has saved the disc on a couple occasions without some powerful magic mcguffin like the elements of harmony lol. Though I dont think twilight would like commander vimes once she finds out he's been marked by the darkness lol

Laughing my Ass off already. Looking forward to more lol

Glad to have been of service. :twilightsmile:

See you once the next idea for this beans me in the noggin.

9545126
Here's one: rainbow dash vs Rincewind. If like to see if she can catch up to him once he starts running xD. Twilight and the archchancellor of Unseen University. Pinkie pie and nanny ogg lol
