Discworld: When Chidder Met Teppic by Celestina
When Chidder Met Teppic (Chidder/Teppic | PG13 | 2,662 words) is Pyramids told through Chidder's point of view. This is nicely fluffy and makes me want to reread Pyramids. Plus, footnotes are always fun.
Excerpt:
When they heard the news about what had transpired in the kingdom of Djelibeybi from fellow traders, Chidder had quite frankly found it incredulous and suspected that it was a tale of pure fiction. Ptraci seemed to believe it, though, and it was her country, so Chidder decided to just go with the flow. When she came up with the crazy plan of being delivered to Teppic in a carpet carried by him, he found it ridiculous. He agreed to go along with it, though, just on the off-chance that he'd get to see Teppic one more time6.
Seeing Teppic again, somehow more mature in the months since they'd seen him, Chidder felt his heart skip a beat. Shock, he told himself. Shock that things had changed. Chidder didn't believe in stupid romantic notions. He hadn't expected anything this time, and was surprised to find himself upset when Teppic and Ptraci left to talk in private.
6 The thought of asking Tepp to choose between them never crossed his mind. Mainly because it was too scared of incurring the wrath of his conscious self.
