'''Detritus:''' You know, if it's gonna be a problem, I don't mind-
'''Vimes:''' Shut up, Detritus. You are a free citizen of Anhk-Morpork. That is an order. }}
*** There's nothing hypocritical about that. Detritus is a free citizen, but he's also a member of the City Watch. Vimes ordering him to shut up has nothing to do with Detritus' species or citizenship status, and everything to do with the fact that Vimes is Detritus' commanding officer.

* The book series "Cut & Run" has main characters Ty and Zane insult and annoy each other and, as a trigger for beginning a romantic (but dysfunctional) relationship, attack each other in a full-blown physical brawl, Ty even attempting to break Zane's nose. The rest of the series involves the two defending each other from various antagonists while consistently pissing each other off.
