'Course, we wouldn't have even tried if it hadn't fallen over
For the "Running Screaming at People While Drunk and Trying to Cut Their Knees off (charge no. 23)" challenge at the discworld100 community on LJ. Yes. Really. That's a challenge :D
Colon stared at the prisoner. He wasn't sure which question to ask first.
"What exactly had it done wrong?" he asked, finally.
"We arrested it on a twenny-free, sarge."
"A twenty-three?"
"Yeah."
He stared some more.
The constable tried to fill the silence.
"I know it ent quite right, but we don't 'ave a number for Jumpin' In A Barrel Of Beer then Runnin' Around, Kickin' People Wiv Ten Legs At A Time, Swallowin' Whole Five Of The Buggers Too Stunned To Get Up an' then Fallin' Over Itself."
In the cell, the Luggage opened its lid and grinned, drunkenly.
