Got blank nesting/matryoshka dolls for Christmas and decided to Pratchett them! Then Granny Weatherwax looked weird without a hat, so I had to make that too 😆

Granny Weatherwax / Nanny Ogg & Greebo / Tiffany Aching / Nac Mac Feegle / Horace the Cheese

I think the Internet would be a funnier place if the fantasy text that defined our generation was "The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents" or "The Wee Free Men" instead of "Harry Potter". If the hero of a generation was Tiffany Aching and not Harry Potter. If the mentor of a generation was Granny Weatherwax.

We'd certainly be better read and more knowledgeable, since not only is there a lot more Discworld than HP, but Discworld also makes you want to learn more about our world to understand the jokes in Discworld.

Also, there'd be actually good adaptations of Discworld (not looking at you, Sky1 Hogfather).

Shoutout to Terry Prachett character Tiffany Aching who defeated a fairy queen with the powers of autism, overstimulation and dissociation

Wee Free Men - An Unprofessional Diagnosis Of The Characters

alright, this is likely going to be a long post and likely going to be an unfinished post, but I’m a firm believer that Terry Pratchett was neurodivergent and has projected his neurodivergency onto every character in discworld, so I’m going to be making headcanon diagnosises for every character, starting with Wee Free Men because I’ve been reading Tiffany Aching and fuck chronological order.

Note- I’m only doing the neurodivergent traits from THIS BOOK because I’m not combing through the whole mini series, I’m may be stupid but I’m not an idiot.

Tiffany Aching

starting off strong with our main character. I believe she’s definitely autistic and I’m going to just list autistic traits she shows with quotes to support them.

Not knowing what was socially acceptable, the unspoken rules. ‘she’d read the dictionary all the way through. No one told her you weren’t supposed to’ ‘I buried her cat […] someone had to’

word association that based on sensations ‘sussurus […] Tiffany liked the taste of the word. It made her think of mysterious people in long cloaks whispering important secrets behind a door’

not having the “correct” emotional reactions to things ‘I ought to be scared, but I’m just angry’

Being ignored or left out of things ‘People tended to leave Tiffany alone’

taking things literally (~measuring a soup plate after being told Jenny had eyes as big as soup plates~), ‘a girl was as beautiful as the day is long. Well, which day? In midwinter it hardly ever got light’

Lacking a proper understanding of danger ‘she used her brother as bait’

being very blunt in her speech ‘are you a witch?’

noticing things that others don’t, being observant (~do I really need examples? It happens so often~)

questioning things generally accepted because they didn’t make sense to her ‘The wicked old witch. And Tiffany had thought: where’s the evidence?’

I’ve come to the horrible realisation that I’ve gotten 9 autistic traits from only 2 chapters of this 14 chapter book, and only one character too. This may be a much larger task than I initially thought.

I'm reading The Wee Free Men and thinking of my own grandmother. She was nothing like Granny Aching. She was loud, and rambunctious, and loved gluing rhinestones on denim jackets. But there's something about Granny Aching that makes me think of her anyway. They were both hardworking and possessed old knowledge. People came to them for things, and deferred to them. I guess there's something about the way the community revolves around a matriarch that all matriarchs have in common.

Plus, one time my grandma tried to make my dad gargle with turpentine for his strep throat. Tell me that ain't a Granny Aching move.

The Nac Mac Feegle are the most dangerous of the fairy races, particularly when drunk. They love drinking, fighting, and stealing, and will in fact steal anything that is not nailed down. If it is nailed down, they will steal the nails as well.

I think that Smurfs actually have a lot of rage and they're so good so that when they die they can go to heaven and be Wee Free Men.

I would LOVE to see Terry Pratchett's Tiffany Aching Series brought to life on screen. They could have so much fun!

David Tennant, Graham McTavish, and every other Scot at the BBC as The Wee Free Men!

Nae laird! Nae quin! We willna be fooled again!

according to google the wee free men are blue, but the first few pages of the first tiffany aching book describe them as heavily bluely tattooed. so are they humanoid-pink with lots of blue tattoos, blue with bluer tattoos, or are they tattooed from toe to eyelid with a block of solid blue color? because i think ive been picturing them wrong all this time and i need an outside source. actually fuck it poll time
