Anonymous asked: Given the Nickelheads' reputation as one of the only major supernatural groups that regularly go back on their word, who on earth (or outside it) was dumb enough to sponsor them into the Unseelie Accords? And why hasn't Mab gone after them more for breaking those accords?
kylograms asked: Had Lash not killed herself for you, but you had survived, do you think you could have convinced her to become completely separated from the real Lasciel, if so, do you think you could ever get used to having a benevolent demon floating around in your thoughts?

Hey, Game Nerds, think you know me? Prove it!
Our pals at Evil Hat are updating my statblock for the upcoming PARANET PAPERS, and they’re looking for assistance from people like you. Details on the contest: http://www.evilhat.com/home/the-trouble-with-a-well-known-character-statblocking-contest/.
Pass it around, share it, and make me look good. I know, that’s not an easy job, but if it was easy, we wouldn’t need smart...
shiniba asked: If the Shroud of Turin and Swords of the Cross are floating around, are other divine artifacts like the Holy Grail and Spear of Destiny around too? Do any of them have mantles like the Knight tied to them?
fatcoyote01 asked: How do you know so many tv references? Don't electronics go Crazy Harry when they're around you, Not-Quite-So-Crazy-Harry?
girlfmkitty asked: Can you shed light on who the Queen fanatic is: Thomas or Molly? Because "We Will Rock You" was genius and it made me literally fistpump at the restaurant where I was having breakfast. Zero craps were given to the looks I got. Thanks!
Anonymous asked: Hypothetically speaking, if one was to break the seventh law, how would they go about it? Where would they start? And how would they avoid the Council's gaze for long enough to make use of the information, assuming they are currently a "vanilla" mortal and under the paranormal radar?
Anonymous asked: Have you ever heard about that witch, Rachel Morgan? She, too, has a vampire friend, issues with authority and a great deal of sass. Thoughts?
Anonymous asked: Harry, have you read any manga or watched any anime, as I am assuming that you would be in your geeky element with either of those things. Plus inspiration for creative uses of magic are abound within them.
iner22 asked: What the anon talking about your mother doesn't realize is that "le Fay" is just a title. Even though the leader of the White Council is called the Merlin, it doesn't make him Merlin's reincarnation, right?
Anonymous asked: How many on Will's electronics did you fry when you found out that he had published the DF RPG behing your back? Or did he accuqire a water cooled computer that is at least partially immune to you?
zeratul787 asked: So what was it like being reborn into the Winter Knight? Besides for Mab's crazy boot camp and the increase of power. Also do you you'll ever be able to learn how to actually communicate with mouse without Molly's aid?
equinox627 asked: Have you ever thought of doing more of a crossover type of thing? Such as helping Mercy Thompson with some of her problems up in Washington, perhaps? Letting Billy show Adam exactly how shifting is done? Maybe seeing how Lea (or Mab, or actually Molly if I think about it) and Zee would get along? Not that I haven't thought at all about this or anything...
Anonymous asked: Would you ever accept the mantle of Blackstaff if offered?
kylograms asked: Do you ever miss Lasciel? Or rather, her shadow? Because you did (almost) convert her to the good side, and she WAS quite helpful. Does the fact that she killed herself for you make you sad?
fogandfreckles asked: If you could get out of the business, miraculously, memory of magic events erased but still maintain the relationships with people close to you, would you?
kylograms asked: Between your duster, staff, blasting rod, shield bracelet, Blue Beetle, and pentacle amulet, which one do you miss the most?
sensiblearmsmistress asked: Hey Harry, who's your favorite Star Wars character?
Anonymous asked: Ever seen Star Trek of any sort? Who's your favorite character?
Anonymous asked: @legendgerry here, what happened to the water cooled computer idea?
Anonymous asked: Hello Harry, @DarronRanston here, a fellow Chicagoan and I just have to ask: Why me? WHY ME?! Every time you get into a supernatural rumble and it spills into the streets, I get stuck in the traffic back up... Hey, I just spent 4 hours traveling a total distance of 3 miles on Lake Shore Drive. Why? Because a wizard and a polka nerd were joy riding a dinosaur through down town Chicago! Oh how I...
thacojones asked: You last case file alluded to the possibility that the mantle of the Winter Knight can be removed without dying. If the mantle of the winter knight can be shed does that mean there's a chance to recover Molly before she changes?
Anonymous asked: So this is a question born out of paranoia. Do we know with all certainty that the original Merlin has passed away? I know wizards' extended lives aren't known go on that far, but he was apparently magnitudes above the power we know of... and a dabbler in time magic, which theoretically goes anywhere in the range of grey to dark black magic. I'm a bit worried about what someone so...
Anonymous asked: I've noticed you and some of your... Acquantences, on sites that shall remain nameless. I have to ask, are they fans of the casefiles, or does Jim have multiple personality disorder?
unoetrino asked: Hi Harry! Andrew from Italy, here. While reading Cold Days file I had to stop a lot of times and put the casefile down. It was too intense. I just could not go on because of that pure awesomeness. Am I just overreacting or what? Do you ever feel that way when you read your own casefiles?
Anonymous asked: Why do I get headaches at sunset everyday?
Anonymous asked: You said not so long ago on one of your questions that you couldn't play guitar worth a damn but in the casefile where Lash was killed you said you played beautifully. Why don't you like your playing anymore?
Anonymous asked: So Dres, what ya plannin' for May the 4th?
Anonymous asked: How are you even on Tumblr without blowing up the nearest computer, phone, tablet, ect? I mean, not that I'm complaining, you're pretty cool, but how?
emeralddragon229 asked: hey, Harry. this isn't really a question, but i think that reference you didnt get, the 'special hell', might be from the show Firefly. you should check it out sometime. it's like if Han Solo had a tv show to himself.

Anonymous asked: While listening (again) to your latest casefile on a long car ride, I came to wonder - how did the 'Za Lord army ever learn to operate a car? (Notice I didn't say 'drive'.)
Anonymous asked: So early on in Cold Days you mentioned hating missing the reference humor. Did you ever get around to getting the reference?
trekcelt asked: End of GS, the Archangel of Ambiguity took you to see Maggie. I knew Charity would insist on having her. You saved Molly; Charity told you "families stay" when Michael was in surgery; you're part of her family, so's Maggie. You told Mouse you were saying bye. Uriel said "What has begun must finish, little brother. Your task here is not yet over." Gotta wonder: which...
Anonymous asked: Would you kiss Karrin again if you could?
Anonymous asked: Dresden: I am trying to set odds for a death match between you and Mouse. Currently, I have the odds for you to win at 4500:1. Many of my constituents disagree and say it should be more like 45000:1. How can I convince them otherwise? Or, can I?
Anonymous asked: What's the grossest thing you've eaten or drunk?
Anonymous asked: Do you ever actually listen to Big Brother Thomas when he tries to give you advice? Or does it just go in one ear and out the other?
Anonymous asked: If you had actually stayed dead, do you think that Ebenezer would have sought out a relationship with little Maggie?
dispotterwhovian asked: Hey Harry. How do you feel about how the graphic novel versions of the case files portrayed you? Does it look anything like you?
Anonymous asked: Harry, I, and a lot of your viewers want to know; Are you planning to go to any conventions? I think your fans would build a shrine in geeky honor to you.

Atlanta, heads up: Jim Butcher heading your way.
He’s confirmed for DragonCon this year. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. His laugh’s an evil laugh.

Anonymous asked: So if the mantles of the Faerie Courts shape their bearers to be like their predecessors... does that mean that eventually we can expect Molly to celebrate birthdays in her "birthday suit" a la Maeve? He asked, out of PURELY ACADEMIC INTEREST (if I shout it, that means it's true!).
Anonymous asked: So since being a wizard you can heal better/faster over time, ie your hand, any chance that spot in your brain that got fried might be healing? Or could it have been fixed when your new boss fixed your back? It'd sure be nice to see Lash again.
Anonymous asked: Harry, if a bunch of burglers turned up to rob your place and got turned into piles of ash by your wards, would that count as a violation of the first law? (Lets say you werent at home at the time and didnt know it was coming)
