#magrat

Terry Pratchett is amazing at writing women, this isn't a new thing to say. But I was having a think about how he wrote women, and tried to think up what common thread there was between his woman characters (especially because with most authors, especially male authors, you tend to be able to tell the author's 'type' by the way they write woman love interests).

Magrat being a Tumblr Fangirl for loving a pathetic (affectionate) Fool (job title, former) who sleeps on the floor, even when he's the King (job title, current)

The clusters of amulets, magical jewellery, and occult bangles on various parts of her body jingled together; any enemy wouldn't only have to be blind to fail to notice that a witch was approaching, he'd have to be deaf as well.

Magrat bought occult jewellery as a sort of distraction from being Magrat. She had three large boxes of the stuff and was still exactly the same person.

Me: Can I get Fullmetal Alchemist?
