After watching a few of these panels that Jim Butcher happen to be on, he's really good at providing levity the with a joke our quick remark; but when he decides to take an answer seriously as he did with the Tropes question on this panel, he really knocks it out of the park.
Some of my favorite stories that use the orphan trope: A Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis and Butcher's Codex Alera, Star Wars, Harry Potter and a little fantasy movie called The Land of Faraway (I think). The main character is convinced he doesn't belong with his family and is whisked into another land.
Thank you, Priscilla, for sharing so much of Butcher's activities from this con! It almost makes the wait for Peace Talks bearable

Thank you for sharing all of these. They help while waiting for the next Butcher novel and introduce me to new authors.

I wish they hadn't ran out of time, really wanted to hear Larry's story at the end :)
Whoa wait.. I OWN That Spider-Man book. They're sold out in the country?
Yeah, subverting tropes will eventually become a trope.
I agree that they shouldn't even think about it..
