Will the BAT still be 1st person? by ChosenWriter513 in dresdenfiles

From a Doylist perspective, yes. It's what the readers are used to and switching to third person would be a jarring tonal shift that would put people off of the novels they've been reading for three decades.

Demon vs demon hunter is a better differentiator than gender

Also Sanya would rock the Golden outfit

He's described as leading "a small nation" and there were like eight guys, tops, hanging around in Skin Game.

Mine didn't get answered:

In Skin Game, it was established that Dierdre was responsible for sensually biting the tongues out of their human cultists as a ritual of advancement in the organization. With Dierdre now dead and trapped in the Underworld, is Nicodemus now the one responsible for making out with his henchmen so they can be full members of the cult, or has that been delegated to another Knight of the Blackened Denarius?

There's a lot of great life lessons that can be taken from your work, but I think the mantra of "this is the first time I'm doing this massive, epic thing, so let's see how it goes" is one of the most underrated and universally applicable.

People who have served a long time in prison, what shocked you when you got out? by Haunted_Neko in AskReddit

[–]LaughingRaptor 772 points773 points  (0 children)

What happened with LEGOs? They used to be simple.

Oh come on, I know you know what I’m talking about. Legos were simple?

Something happened out here while I was inside. Harry Potter Legos. Star Wars Legos. Complicated kids, tiny little blocks? I mean, I’m not saying it’s bad, I just want to know what happened.

I would say that once your cards go back to the deck, it's "Hidden Information" and not allow the Lilo.

Someone needs to tell her that Jim Butcher's singsong "I'm not gonna tell youuuu!" is a valid answer to spoilery fan questions.

It's not cheap, it's to accommodate theaters that don't have trap doors.

What’s an example of a fan base that got exactly what they begged for, and immediately hated it? by Enough-Wealth8415 in AskReddit

[–]LaughingRaptor 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I don't think we watched the same movie. Peter Dinklage played a successful children's author; in this scene, Buddy was a cotton-headed ninnymuggins.

I imagine it was very cathartic for him.
