The German subtitles revealed something that’s not in the original version!!!! Right at the end of the scene in the bar, just before the zoom in on the portrait of Terry Prachett, Asa Fell gets asked about the bookshop and he tells Anthony Crowley about Derek, the owner. The audio gets so quiet that you can’t make out the words Asa says after that.
In the English subtitle version, this is also it.
In the German version however, there is another line that continues the sentence. I’ll try to translate it:
"[Derek] persuaded me to help him when I stopped teaching."
He was a teacher! Asa Fell worked as a teacher before he worked in the bookshop!
"With you by my side, every night feels like a Christmas Eve."

Hello my dears!
Our Nice And Accurate Network Discord started an Advent Calendar this year, and I had the honor and the pleasure to be the Day 19's artist.
So, once upon a time...
Crowley is a freshly retired soldier, back to civilian life. Searching for quieter activities, he first works in security services for companies, exhibits or shows, then he finally settles in the countryside, as a night watchman in a municipal museum and its old library.
Books, pictures, statues and old items, everywhere. Alone and free of any colleague or disturbance, Crowley spends his night shifts looking at the surveillance screens while trying to learn guitar or enjoying some good audiobooks. Roaming around in the dark alleyways and enjoying the silence. Perfect job for such a solitary man.
Until one fateful night, when Crowley realises that the library already had a guardian, sneaking out of his own painting, trotting along the crumbling staircases and the dusted showcases.
An angel, graceful and luminous, tidying up books that weren’t in the right place, reading everything he could with a curious enthusiasm and a wonderful smile.
Time passes. It’s been a year now, and they are… colleagues? No. Friends? Probably even more. And for this new particular night, Crowley wants to gift his Angel with a little something.
To give him back just the smallest part of the awe he feels every night.
Because...
"With you by my side, every night feels like a Christmas Eve."

Does anyone want a ticket to The Magic of Terry Pratchett event in London tonight?
Not expecting any money for it or anything, I’d just hate to see it go to waste. There should be no empty seats when it comes to celebrating Terry!
I’m just having a really bad pain flare today, the tumours are not behaving, the little bastards, and my chest aches like hell, so I’m doing the annoying and sensible thing and staying at home. It’s such a shame as I was really hoping to get a chance to meet Rhianna and maybe Rob too if he’s there.
Happy Terry Pratchett Day, on what would have been his 77th birthday.
To mark the occasion, we are putting our focus on reading for all, so we invite you to pick up a book, celebrate those championing literacy and access, share the stories that impacted you most, and celebrate your local libraries, who make this accessible across the country.
Terry was a firm believer that reading should be for everyone, and we continue to champion this ethos. No matter the age, format, or genre, there's a power in words and stories to transport readers.
For those looking to bring a little bit of Discworld into your, or younger readers', lives, Gollancz have given us some free sample colouring pages from the Discworld colouring book to share and print at home: https://terrypratchett.com/free-to-download-discworld-colouring-pages/
A continued and hearty thanks to all who keep Terry's work and legacy alive, and mark days like today in his honour. And to those who continue to fight for access to reading, for the importance of libraries, and the worlds that await within the pages of books - we thank you.
Announcing the launch of the Discworld graphic novel universe, bringing the work of Sir Terry Pratchett's Discworld to new readers.
Announcing the Discworld graphic novel universe.
We are thrilled to announce that the work of Sir Terry Pratchett is being adapted into graphic novels, to be released by Penguin Books. But what one will we start with? How about three...
spent a lot of time finalising my thesis and not really drawing BUT i finally handed it in last week! can I hear a Wahoo! I still have an oral exam to complete but yo, I'm so ready to get back into comics (more on that soon), fan art and also, finally creating content on my Patreon again!
I'm reopening my page on the first of April (not a joke) with more tiers and new rewards! Look forward to new spicy art, sketch requests, and as a new bonus, colouring pages as well as an affordable support tier because damn, the economy is crazy right now Dx
I'm also looking to stretch my feelers into new fandoms and ships so let me know in the comments what other ships you would like to see me make art for! some that I'd like to explore are definitely Hannibal and Arcane :)
(I've never struggled so much before: multiple wings with crazy lighting effect? Yeah sure I can do that no problem. Smiling DT in light color outfit? Not even after seven attempts. What's wrong with me honestly)
