copperbadge:littlesmartart:DRAWTOBER #29 - The Patrician’s Papers by copperbadgeHavelock Vetinari and Margolotta von Uberwald rekindle an old flame, in several different ways.so even though I don’t really ship vetinari and margolotta romantically any more, I absolutely have to rec this fic 1. because it’s really really good holy shit, and 2. because of how vitally important it was to the tiny little pedalboat that was the havviemargo ship on ye olde dA back in like, 2012… batty @undeadtealeaves can attest to how we used to describe it as “the holy grail fic” because for a ship that has very little content it’s incredible to discover a 36k word fic with excellent characterisation, a really intriguing twisty-turny political plot, fantastic romantic development, and A SECRET SMUT CHAPTER which I did manage to find once (and there was much shrieking involved) but I think has since been lost to the mists of time. so here is margolotta in her terribly pink dress to burn your retinas, though I feel like my big goofy vampire fangs have ruined her elegance somewhat, and @copperbadge… thank you for giving me a liferaft in the deep waters of my early online shipping experience. this fic has been much loved and is looked back on with deep affection. Oh my goodness, I had no idea it was so well thought-of! I’m so glad it could be a delight to you.I wonder if I still have a copy of the super secret smut chapter. I’ll rummage around and see. I can definitely post it if so. Also I quite like the big goofy vampire fangs :D Gives her such a nice smile. And the pink dress is delightful, I love the lace accents and the little bats on the border. I had a ton of fun coming up with Looks for her to serve in that fic. -- source link
