Alphabetical list of Havelock Vetinari/Rufus Drumknott fanfiction
Last update: 2nd September 2018.
I will return to this someday. But I'm pretty positive that all new fics will only be posted to AO3, and I've done my best to compile all old fics that were posted elsewhere, so hopefully with this list + AO3, you're well-equipped to read every (complete) V/D fanfiction out there.
~
My life doesn't revolve around Havelock Vetinari, but he's a pretty big feature in it, just saying.
I want to compile every (English*) V/D fanfiction in this post, so if there's anything I've missed, please comment below! Anon is on, screening is off (if you need to leave me a private comment, PM me or comment on my intro post). 'Tags' are not necessarily what the author tagged the fics, and I just tagged the ones I didn't read as 'unread'. Incomplete fics have not been included, as well as fics that don't end with the main ship still as the main ship because I'm not about that life.
Since this is not a fic rec, remarks are only present on my own fics, usually to grumble about how much I hate my own writing.
If a link doesn't work, tell me which one!. There are a lot of links here, but I checked each one before posting so unless something is flocked, it should work.
Total number of fics: 71

Only The Best
Author: spes_unica
Tags: sfw,
Summary: If Vetinari has "no vice that anyone could discover" (Guards!

Canon leaves it at that (apart from his fondness for little dogs), but there are distinct ... possibilities in his relationship with his faithful clerk and secretary Rufus Drumknott. Even though they never so much as touch.

The Young Assassins: stories from another trouserleg of time
Author: Veul_McLannon
Tags: sfw, established relationship, AU,
Summary: A series of ficlets based in a universe where Drumknott was born thirty-odd years earlier, and became the scholarship student at the Assassins’ Academy. Predictably, he and Vetinari are the black sheep (har har) of the academy. (I'm taking it as read that this is more like a college/university type of deal, rather than a School per se.)
These are all snippets of daily life, are a blatant excuse to write marginally OOC fluff, and will be added to as I think of other ideas. Each can be read in isolation.
Length: Varies

Oh Balls!
Author: Dicentra
Tags: unread, nsfw
Summary: The Sunrise Awakening Ball was almost upon the good upstanding citizens of Ankh-Morpok (yes, alright, and the many not so-good and the downright crooked). The populace was excited.
The Palace organisers - getting to be not so keen; in fact, a good word to describe them would be stressed.
Will it happen? Will our two gentlemen attend? Will they want to?

Only The Best
Author: spes_unica
Tags: sfw,
Summary: If Vetinari has "no vice that anyone could discover" (Guards! Guards!), at least it could be deduced from the nature of the "cerebral" pleasures (Making Money) he likes to indulge in (not to mention from the nature of his 24/8 preoccupations) that he has a decided interest in control and power relationships. Canon leaves it at that (apart from his fondness for little dogs), but there are distinct ... possibilities in his relationship with his faithful clerk and secretary Rufus Drumknott. Even though they never so much as touch.

The Young Assassins: stories from another trouserleg of time
Author: Veul_McLannon
Tags: sfw, established relationship, AU,
Summary: A series of ficlets based in a universe where Drumknott was born thirty-odd years earlier, and became the scholarship student at the Assassins’ Academy. Predictably, he and Vetinari are the black sheep (har har) of the academy. (I'm taking it as read that this is more like a college/university type of deal, rather than a School per se.)
These are all snippets of daily life, are a blatant excuse to write marginally OOC fluff, and will be added to as I think of other ideas. Each can be read in isolation.

(Anonymous) 2021-07-22 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)I just wish it was a more popular pairing as there aren’t anywhere near enough.
Even worse for me is that almost all of them are very tame 😏 I would love more smutty ones (can’t write it myself unfortunately)
I’m trying to write my own right V/D fic now but I’m never satisfied with my writing so it may never be added to any fanfic site
