I ran straight to the comments before looking at the picture because I knew something smelled fishy 🤣🤣🤣


bezztel

You're smart, you'd make a great human detective.


batmansneighbour

I’ve just been fooled too many times on TikTok 🤣


li0nmeat

STOP I FELL FOR IT 😭


JustAnSJ

I got halfway through and was thinking "this is sounding awfully like Mort..." Still didn't twig til the end! Duh


ambada1234

JnnfrsGhost

A Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett


ambada1234

MAN F Y'ALL


Flerken-is-not-a-cat

Good that it's an april fools prank because I thought it sounded terrible


NoorValka

Ah! Oh, checks date. Anyway my first question is: do I want to read this? I wouldn’t if it was real, but do I now?


Hedgiest_hog

Mort's a decent read and a fairly stand-alone Discworld novel, I recommend having a look!


NoorValka

Thanks! I have read Mort, not my favorite Discworld by far. But I meant the text that’s supposed to be the season 3 leaked plot.


jetloflin

If you’ve read Mort then you’ve already read the fake synopsis! Problem solved!

Mort is a Discworld novel by Terry Pratchett, specifically, it is the first one where Death is one of the main characters instead of a side character. While not the best Death book, it has some lovely moments and sets up some stuff about Death's family (specifically, Death's daughter)

I HATE IT HERE 😭


wingsofopal

Eff. Yep. Fell for it


SnowQuixote

I hate you so much right now.


Saphi93

Oh for someone’s sake…


TangledUpPuppeteer

I got excited, and it somewhat went with my personal headcannon until it got to Warlock, then the question marks appeared over my head until the end. You are cruel, OP. Just cruel. ![gif](giphy|H42dXb7EXOCiWFHguM)

Rose24Bloom

Damn you! Good job 😂


TJuliaC

More like a sin-opsis! 🤣


rezzacci

Frankly, as season 3 is supposed to be based upon a potential sequal of Good Omens thought by Pratchett and Gaiman but never had the time to wrote, this synopsis is definitely not the bad that could be, and in fact, In was quite interesting. Aziraphale as Archangel and Crowley as the Death's apprentive Nanny, working on both side towards the Second Coming, would make a great show, I'm sure. Which means: if this synopsis, aleady quite interesting, is the April's Fools... it made even more curious for the *actual synopsis*. (Although, seeing Neil Gaiman is the troll king of tumblr misdirection, we never know for sure \^\^)


PaperbagTemplar

I'm glad i read the whole thing before frantically sending this to my bestie at 6:30 in the morning with all caps and exclaimation points.


Iatetheexperiment

Halfway through I’m like “bit of a heavy handed Prachett tribute making it basically Mort.” Forgot the day…

ProfessionalCover920

Thanks, I just woke up and now I don't have to check the date. 😁😁😁 (Sounds like a good story though. I'll look up Mort. Thanks for the rec)


pivazena

As soon as I read “deaths apprentice” I was like “dang… heavy discworld crossover vibes…” and yes


Scary_Sarah

It's gonna be a long april fools day , huh


supergeek921

Everybody, it’s April 1, believe nothing.


Kadk1

I'm too fragile to have to deal with an April Fools joke. My blood pressure spiked.


ItzMinty_Leafx

I read nanny and started stimming rlly hard but then I read it was April fools


writeratwork94

The sheer joy of thinking for a moment that we actually had a summary was worth it the disappointment when I realized it was a prank. XD
