I wrote this Discworld fic when I was fourteen. I fixed up the punctuation a little, but it's otherwise unchanged. I also started out trying to write in Terry Pratchett's style, but changed my mind early on. It contradicts Lords and Ladies, which says that Ponder was born and raised in Ankh-Morpork, but The Last Continent was written after that, so I'll go with that.

Title: Kids Can Be So Cruel
Fandom: Discworld
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1,361
Summary: In The Last Continent, Ponder mentions that when he was a kid, he would get bullied frequently, and was once pushed into a lake. So I wrote about this incident. I think he's about ten here. Maybe younger.

I hadn't read this for a while. I think it might be better than my later works. Crap.
