15 Fics: Stifling Expending by ~TMOH:iconTMOH:



He went off to his first proper job in a suit from Mr. Soon Shine Sun’s shonky shop, his eyes full of stars and his head full of…not dreams, exactly.  He didn’t expect to make the world a better place, or even the city.  It took a lot more than a bell and a truncheon to do that.  What he had were plans, for a little money now and more later on, enough for decent food and good boots and a big house upwind of the river.
It would be years before he realized that he’d got his priorities wrong.

For Roruna's request in the Fifteen Ficlets Challenge. She gave me Young Vimes and I randomly generated the phrase "stifling expending" and wrote the first idea I got from that.

Considering that I've never written any version of Vimes before, I quite like this.

Very good. I wish I could think of something insightful to say. This totally made me smile, not quite sure why. I suppose it has something to do with how when a person is young, they're sure their life will turn out a certain way and then when they get older they look back and realize how dumb they were.

Really? :O Awesome! I was really worried about getting this one correct and in-character and everything, but you got exactly what I wanted out of it. :D
