Ideal First Date: A drive-in movie, dinner at a restaurant where none of the food was prepared by Fairies, driving her home in a car with actual upholstery and never once diving out of it while it's still moving, walking her to the door without getting hit with a Louisville Slugger or jumped by a toad demon, and a good night kiss which neither drugs me, poisons me, nor enslaves me to an ancient nickel.

Molly, a question for you, that Will and Butters could help with as well; Have you thought of setting up an online dating profile for Harry between the three of you, and then watching with a gleeful, yet innocent expression?

Meteorite-smoked salmon. I need it. It's important to me.

We want all our food prepared with space knives.

Watch Anthony Bourdain and master blacksmith Bob Kramer melt down a meteorite into a beautiful blade.

Sorry, Oracle. It IS pretty damn entertaining sometimes. I applaud your restraint and Georgia requests you tell her privately in exchange for beer.

Cosplay, Fan-Created Media, and Asshattery

A few members of Team Dresden have let me know some people have been kind of jerky about what readers have created or dressed up as from the casefiles.

I’ve said this before here and will say it again: don’t make fun of what other people do to show their affection for a fandom. If you do and I find out about it - don’t care if it’s my casefiles or something else - I will unleash hellfire on you, at least in print.

The world is an ugly place. Make it better instead of making it worse.

......mea culpa. You have a more charitable spirit than I.

Harry, what have we told you about engaging Nicodemus? Ignore him and you don't feed his need to seem important and relevant.

I know this is without sound in the second half, but I really want to add a bubble-pop sound to Marci. Because it would annoy her. -grin-

MY FRIENDS MADE A THING LOOK AT IT LOOK AT IT!!!!!

On the other end of that spectrum, thank you to everyone who buried the Web in Dragon*Con stuff, I feel like I was there.   Speaking of things that were there, this is an awesome thing that was there. It includes the existence and apparent participation of one Will Borden, so naturally I approve. https://youtu.be/LDSnm4pT9Ao

Hey, ordooracle. Murphy says she has no problem with you declassifying some of her old police reports. In her own... inimitable fashion.

And with just 140 shopping days til Christmas.

Werewolf dad with a hint of a floral pattern, bam!

[willborden]

Fine. I, Will Borden, do hereby acknowledge that Oracle, and the Paranet, put the Butters and Macklin thing together before I did, despite them being two of my closest friends, and the latter being the least subtle person I know.

I am aware that the 'Net scoops me often, and am graciously grateful.

Except that cotton candy incident. I totally called that one.

Like the Scoobies on Buffy, we’re hot on the trail of another mystery! I’ve got folks following up.

willborden - any thoughts?

[willborden]

Not It.  We mostly suck at the bipedal thing.  Like, hilariously suck. But given the power vacuum in that particular location of the world, it’s definitely Just Cause for a vacation if any ‘Netters are itching for a reason to take a trip.

Werewolf Caught Roaming the Streets of Brazil?

This past Friday (July 31st, 2015), countless people around the world turned their attention towards the heavens to marvel at the spectacle that was the Blue moon. Numerous photos were taken of the wondrous natural phenomenon. However, one photo taken that night shows that something far more astonishing may also have been out that night.

The above image, which was reportedly captured by a CCTV camera in Brazil, shows what appears to be a Werewolf roaming down a deserted street in the dead of night. The image has since gone viral on social media, and many people are convinced this is undeniable proof that the shape-shifting creatures of legend are indeed real.

But where there are believers, there are also skeptics, and there a many who doubt the validity of this image. Those who are skeptical believe this is nothing more than a poor Photoshop job.

According to DiarioOnline.com.br, this is but one of many versions of this photo. Each version claims the image was captured a different Brazilian city. One suggests it was captured in Ponta Grossa, another claims Ceilândia. One version even suggests the picture originated from France. 

The fact that no one seems to know where exactly this image originated from is the main reason behind people’s staunch skepticism. Personally, while I too believe this is most-likely a hoax, I’m still very much interested in hearing you thoughts on this image. Do you think it shows a real Werewolf? Or is this just a poorly executed hoax?

http://www.worldbuilders.org/ An artist donated their work, on short notice, to benefit that charity, at Rothfuss’ behest and with Butcher’s permission. It is NOT for sale.  Dick move, TeeSpring person.

Do not BUY that shirt. I want to see someone in that freaking Super Butters shirt and KNOW they gave to Worldbuilders and got it as a reward.  I don’t want to wonder whether they got scammed.

Ripping off a charity is cool, right?

http://teespring.com/new-never-die

That shirt is EXCLUSIVELY for the WorldBuilders charity but this TeeFury clown (or others from the same circus) keeps trying to sell it for his, her, their profit.

Need Team Dresden to spread the word: if you want one of these shirts, check the WorldBuilders webpage. Anyone else selling it needs to be called on it.

This charity helps feed impoverished families around the world. Stealing from them - that’s what this is - is so wrong I’m surprised the Knights haven’t hunted them down. It’s some Denarian-level crap.

I’d appreciate some help, guys.

Harry

[willborden]

Yeah, one: that you’re never going to let me live down how long it took me to put two and two together a couple years ago.

Like the Scoobies on Buffy, we’re hot on the trail of another mystery! I’ve got folks following up.

I usually sign "Will" if I'm posting on Harry's account.

Unless I'm adding pink glitter hearts and kitten banners Molly found to Harry's Twitter.

Then Georgia grounds us both.

Hey Harry, big fan...I'm just wondering, why do you sign your Tumblr posts with your name like my mom (still) signs her texts? You know we know it's you by your little picture in the corner, right? Just a fan trying to be helpful. ;)

Sometimes - especially after I’ve destroyed one of Will’s devices or something from the Nevernever’s tried to destroy me - Will or Georgia speaks up for me. So I got in the habit of making sure people know it’s me.

That was a long way to go to call me a mother, man. Just saying.

I'm gonna need Marci to draw this, DC-versus-Marvel style.

Now I’m envisioning Aliens over Chicago and Harry just looking up at them and going “Hexus” 

And suddenly ALL the spaceships going in to shut down mode as everything breaks and they’re coming down.

Which is kind of like the avengers too.

[willborden]

I keep having nightmares about trying to close Pandora's box.

It’s official - Paranet: Declassified is a Thing. Our first case? Somewhat less than auspicious, but clearly willborden needs our help. Paranetizens to the rescue!

[willborden]

This keeps up and we're going to have to start warding the Speak'n'Spell.

I asked the others and none of them answered yet, so I'll ask the sensible one. How hard would you laugh if it turned out Mab's interested in Harry because she's his Grandmother, and/or has a crush on him? xD

As the sensible one, I lived such a happy life without ever having contemplated either of these possibilities, let alone both of them with a slash between them. Thank god Mac’s is still open.
