Line 2:
* Lord Vetinari seems to respond to practically everything Sam Vimes says or does with a weird mix of pride and amusement. It's also worthy of note that Vimes is apparently the only person that Vetinari trusts in the conventional sense, rather than the "[[Crazy Prepared|so aware of exactly what they'll do in any situation that there's no cause for concern]]" sense in which he 'trusts' everyone else.
** Totally out of context, but at the end of ''Night Watch'' there's an exchange. Looks like it's [[All Love Is Unrequited|one-sided]].
{{quote| '''Vetinari''': And if you care to come along to my office tomorrow, we can settle the-<br />
'''Vimes''': There's a trial tomorrow. [...] I want this bastard to hang, after all.<br />
'''Vetinari''': Well then, afterward we could-<br />
'''Vimes''': Afterward I'm going home to my family for a while. }}
** Similarly out of context but even this troper, who is fairly critical of most Vetinari/Vimes fanworks or theories, had to raise her eyebrows at this snippet of dialogue from ''Jingo'':
{{quote| '''Vetinari''': You're not going to handcuff me?<br />
'''Vimes''': Why should I do that?<br />
'''Vetinari''': Treason is very nearly the ultimate crime, Sir Samuel. I think I should ''demand'' handcuffs.<br />
'''Vimes''': All right, if you insist.<br />
'''Vetinari''': You haven't any shackles, by any chance? }}
** There's also Leonard of Quirm, drawing men with careful attention to their muscles, measuring Colon's "saddlery regions". Given that he's an [[Affectionate Parody]] of Leonardo da Vinci, who himself was a bit... iffy, this isn't completely surprising.
