Description From the same line of art prompts that resulted in the X-Over with Doctor Who.
When someone prompted a modern day AU I couldn't miss out on the chance of having Rincewind do parkour.
(Hell if I could find the reference pic again )

Modern Day Rincewind looks a lot younger than book Rincewind to me, like late teens to early twenties.

Rincewind does parkour. Holy Jesus, I think I feel some tears coming on.

Because of the beautifulness!

(Sorry for leaving that comment on your profile... I meant to put it on the picture itself, I think my computer spazzed out.)

The modern day version of a wizard (Rincewind himself) was done in the Color of Magic - he's suddenly on a jet with
Twoflower for a few minutes. Twoflower's a tourist in a loud Hawaiian shirt (of course) and Rincewind (or Doctor Rjinswaand, PhD) is a nuclear engineer specializing in fission breeder reactors.

Recently, I read somewhere that parkour is the French martial art of running away

why are you so cruel with frenchies ? Why us ?

Wirrer In reply to krikr2 [2013-09-02 12:19:34 +0000 UTC]

I didn't mean to be cruel, it was just a joke. I have nothing against the French - actually, part of my family is French, and they are really amazing people.
Sorry if it offended you - it was definately not my intention.

Acutally it doesn't offend me very much but it still question my minds.

Well, I don't know what to tell you then. It was just a little joke, it didn't mean anything. I like the French, I think parkour is cool and I thought it was funny to describe it as the martial art of running away. That's all.
