Discworld AU where Agnes Nitt joins the City Watch instead of the opera house.
Is immediately taken under the wing of Angua and Cheery, both of whom find themselves relating to her (Angua because of the dual-mind thing, Cheery because of the physicality thing).
Carrot, of course, knew her family already, and they catch up on how things are back in the Ramtops. Carrot mainly asks about shaft four in Copperhead reopening, but Agnes appreciates the thought nonetheless.
Agnes gets on surprisingly well with Nobby Nobbs. Even gives him pointers of make-up.
Sybil takes a personal interest in Agnes's career, and mentions this to Vimes.
Of course, Vimes unintentionally adds her to his rapidly-expanding mental list of adoptive children. Someone makes a fat joke, and Vimes sees the Look on Agnes's face. He immediately recognises it as the same Look that Sybil has whenever a joke like that is made about her. Vimes takes the perpuator aside for a quiet word; within a few hours, the entire city population knows that they Will Not Ever Make That Sort Of Joke Again.
When Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg arrive in the city and head for Pseudopolis Yard, Granny refuses to step into the Watch House. She quietly states that this territory is Someone Else's. Nanny is about to object but sees the look on Granny's face and quietly agrees. Agnes Nitt is left alone to make her own path, whatever that may be.

One just has to love a woman who tells a massive murderous dragon to "Sit!".
Lady Sybil, I love you so

We talk about how quickly Vimes had it down bad for Sybil, but can we also appreciate that five foot nothing of scrawny alcoholic turned up at Sybil's door and she was immediately like "help me with my dragons. let's have tea. did you know my ancestors fucked severely? gosh you're a captain, how dashing." When Vimes was injured she could have had him put in her spare bed but nope, she put him in her bedroom. And then she slapped his arse. Lady Sybil knew what she wanted.

Every step I choose to take begins to set the world aflame!
And the soldiers march behind me,
I can hear them beat their spears!
And for the first time in all my life,
I know I'm more than what I fear!
Happy Glorious 25th of May!

If there's one thing about Terry Pratchett, he sure knows how to write a romance between World's Lamest Dude and Woman With Autism

Vimes needs some rest.
I am Carrot. Is the exhibit on a different continent? I'll still be excited about a good museum exhibit.

"I have to tell you, sir, that Lady Sybil has found out about the bacon sandwich arrangement. She said to tell you the game was up, sir."
"I am the commander around here, you know," said Vimes, with as much hauteur as he could muster on an empty stomach.
"Yes, sir. But Lady Sybil has a very quiet way of being firm, sir."
"She has, hasn't she," said Vimes as they strolled toward the building. "I'm a very lucky man, you know," he added, just in case Carrot may have got the wrong impression.
"Yes, sir. You are indeed."
Terry Pratchett, Thud!

More Cheery Littlebottom, talking to Vimes (her commanding officer, hence the "sir"):
"Is that what you'll be wearing, Cheery?" "Yes, sir." "But it's just... ordinary dwarf clothes. Trousers and everything." "Yes, sir." "But Sybil said you'd got a fetching little green number and a helmet with a feather in it." "Yes, sir." "You're free to wear whatever you want, you know that." "Yes, sir. And then I thought about Dee. And I watched the king when he was talking to you, and... well, I can wear what I like, sir. That's the point. I don't have to wear that dress. I can wear what I like. I don't have to wear something just because other people don't want me to. Anyway, it made me look a rather stupid lettuce." -- Terry Pratchett,The Fifth Elephant (emphasis on "don't" added by me because I think it's important)
One of the many things that Sir Terry was excellent at is writing characters that start out as caricatures, and end up being the realest people ever. Cheery Littlebottom, who by the name is obviously a throwaway ridiculous character. And dwarfs in general (on Discworld, dwarfs and humans are two of many intelligent species) are absurd. Dwarfs sing songs about gold, they make inedible bread that's mostly used as weapons, they all have beards and wear helmets and carry axes. And yet. By the time you finish the book, real.
Now about Discworld dwarfs and gender. In dwarf society, gender is largely ignored and almost irrelevant; all dwarfs use the same pronouns, dress the same, do the same jobs. Gender-based discrimination can't even exist! I mean. Women in the real world have been fighting for this sort of equality for decades, right?
But it's not quite right. There's "equal," and then there's "being exactly the same as everyone else." So there are dwarfs who rebel against the homogeneous status quo by choosing to use different pronouns (she/her), and wear dresses and makeup.
Gender expression! It's a battle against the old ways, but dwarfs are good at fighting.
