Do you perchance have any vetinari/drumknott fic recs

What a great question! I have so many recs and it does depend on what you like in your Vetinari/Drumknott fics. If you haven't found it already Badass Tiger made a Dreamwidth with links to V/D fics from all over. Some links are dead (blog was last updated 2018) but there are some great links to fanfiction.net, LiveJournal, their own drabbles they didn't post else where, but most links are to A03. BadassTiger has one written called Colour that is very short and sweet.

As they haven't updated since 2018 they do not have links to any of DictionaryWrites who is an exceedingly talented writer who now post their own original works. Their Drumknott/Vetinari works are a masterclass and look towards a more mature take on the relationship. Drumknott is more than the rosy clerk and is given a cutting edge that makes sense for the personal clerk to Vetinari, who is more machiavellian. There are very tender moments and though their largest fic about this pair, In Duty, is not completed it is at a good stopping point and is supplemented by the the others stories in their Patrician and Clerk series.

Youtomyme and Ololon, on A03, have my favorite takes on Vetinari/Drumknott. Youtomyme does some great soul mark ones that allow Vetinari and Drumknott to face their feelings due to outside sources that fits them very well as they are both such dedicated professionals in the books. 'All's Fair' is my current favorite in this trope. Ololon is so talented as well and is one of the highest kudos authors on this pair for a reason. 'Three mistakes Drumknott made' is a fic I read over and over again. When I need a nice long fic the 'Seamstresses' Guild Ball' is my go to. I love that one and have commented on it several times. The way they write Vetinari is very believable.

I am not sure if you want explicit some of the ones mentioned above are. Everything has a tag! Even in BadassTigers they include a summary and SFW or NSFW tag next to the link for the most part. Last one I am going to recommend because I really could go all day with these is 'The Self-Publishing Subculture' by Aunt_Zelda. It really scratches my discworld need. It is hilarious, heartwarming and practical. Plus it acknowledges how fanfiction written on Disc might be taken from an administrative POV. I feel I am not selling this well but it is such a good fic.

I hope I didn't recommend to many you may have already read and if you are looking for non romantic Drumknott & Vetinari that still has them very close @cirrus-grey writes several excellent ones.

Thank you for the ask! It is flattering to be asked my favorite recs and there are so many good ones I didn't mention that are very much worth the read. These were top of mind. Let me know which ones you enjoy!!!

Hello!! I love what you're doing, your blog has helped me find so many great fics!! I was wondering if you have any recommendations for good Crowley & Warlock stories... thank you!!!

I hope these are what you’re looking for, dear!

A Nanny? In MY Summoning Circle? by pukner

(it's more likely than you think)

Warlock "Lockie" Dowling summons a demon.

Or, he buys a book off a suspiciously familiar bookseller and is convinced into demon summoning.

It goes about as well as you'd expect.

Difficult Questions by DictionaryWrites

This is the problem with children, of course.

They ask difficult questions.

Crowned by DictionaryWrites

“No, Nanny, that’s not how you do it."

“Isn’t it, my dear one?” Crowley replied. “Then do show me, Warlock, how do you do it?”

Fic rec! 17K Good Omens fic

Summary: Being a nanny, that should be simple. Simple. Easy as pie. Crowley wished that were true.

Comments: I pretty much went straight from this fic to the rest of the series to seeing what else @patricianandclerk might have written in other fandoms I hang in.

There’s no big plot here - we know how it ends anyway - but this was a fascinating read on several levels. We learn so much from some of the subtle things that happen, and see what Warlock learns from them too is sobering.

In the author’s own words “This fic is all coming from a lot of thoughts about how Ashtoreth is repeatedly described in BDSM terms and so on, and the way she's repeatedly boiled into a sexy figure rather than someone who's here to look after Warlock. A lot of this fic centers on Crowley's feelings as being a figure of objectification and sexualisation.” He writes it really well - there’s all the subtle nuances of behavior and tone that as a woman I could immediately spot, made worse by how at times Aziraphale isn’t Crowley’s best ally - it’s Warlock.

It’s also very bittersweet watching Crowley love Warlock more and more, even while the knowledge that he’ll have to leave creeps closer.

This is an excellent Nanny fic, a read for us all.

Due to personal reasons, Vetinari has become head of the Seamstresses’ Guild instead of Patrician

I’M SCREAMING

HIS FACE AT 2:52-2:53

THAT IS THE FACE OF A MAN WHO KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE JUST FUCKIN DID

[frostmaster-is-lit]

I actually love the idea of the Grandmaster spending time decorating Loki - especially with stuff like make-up and body paint, which can be so subtly sensual in the right environment. Just the idea of Loki on his back or laid on his belly and acting as a canvas for the Grandmaster? - DictionaryWrites

// I can see this “Draw me like one of your French Girls” image clearly in my mind and I love it!! ♥

[aziraphales-library]

Could you recommend a few good Warlock-related fics? Can be set during the show or afterwards.

I found a few for you, dear!

Nanny Comes Back by DictionaryWrites

After the Apocalypse, Crowley reevaluates his priorities, and Nanny returns to Warlock.

human childcare for the occult (and ethereal) by suzukiblu

The Dowlings miraculously need a nanny and a gardener at the same time, and Aziraphale suggests they flip for it. Crowley takes one moment to picture Aziraphale nannying anyone and calls dibs. It’s not that Aziraphale’s terrible with humans, he’s just, well. Terrible with humans. Truly, truly terrible.

He doesn’t want to deal with Aziraphale getting metaphorically guillotined or kicking up security’s paranoia, basically. A gardener can be a little odd, and no one will notice or care. Except Warlock, perhaps, as the only other person with any real reason to spend much time out on the lawn, but Warlock’s the one they want noticing so that’ll be fine, Crowley’s sure.

Even if it does make him cringe a little, leaving Aziraphale in charge of the plants.

Chosen and Unchosen by Bookwormgal

Adam Young was meant to be the Anti-Christ. His entire purpose was to cause the end of the world. In many ways, he was the Chosen One, albeit for a rather dark path. But he was raised completely human and normal, without any unusual expectations of him beyond being a regular boy. He remained unaware of his heritage or destiny until the very end. And though he was chosen, he did not accept his role and rejected it and his connection to Lucifer.

Warlock Dowling was not chosen. He was born as an ordinary child, with no special skills or powers. He should have lived an average life. But he was raised with certain Expectations. Occult and ethereal entities Expected him to be the Anti-Christ. He was not chosen or fated for such a role, but reality tends to bend a little when angels and demons have Expectations.

The apocalypse may have been averted, but not everyone is relieved. Heaven and Hell may not believe that they can execute the traitors, but they also cannot let Aziraphale and Crowley go unpunished. Unfortunately for them, two not-quite-so-normal boys have some rather strong opinions on the topic.
