That depends... are we talking sensitive impregnating Dirty Dancing Swayze, cheesy extranomal bi-curious Ghost Swayze, or ass kicking Roadhouse bouncer Swayze?

Three classics right there for sure. I can't help but think of Ghost every time I imagine Harry walking around Chicago minus body. Whoopi could be in it, and that guy in the subway.

Isn't it the "Za Lord"?

One of the odd things about Toot that I just noticed in a re-read of Small Favors is that Toot has been growing. Perhaps being the Generalissimo of the Za Lord Army or associated with Dresden is increasing his magical powers or standing in the Fae world.

So... is it possible that Toot will be a full grown character by the end of the series? I would think that he'd feature somewhat in this - as he's a Fae and can probably see ghosts.

Bob too!

Personally I am looking forward to that psychic ghost whisperer guy returning. He has to. It is such an obvious connection.

I was always partial to Next of Kin Swayze.

Toot will probably end up being one bad mofo.
I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

It's been implied that via hislink with Harry Toot was gaining status and followers among the wild fae, which equates to power, which is expressed in size. He DID wound the Skinwalker, after all.

As for Bob, logically yes, but it would almost seem too trite. Plus we've never seen Bob communicate with the dead, his necromancer background notwithstanding.

Yep.
Plus cats are known to see the dead, so Mister would be logical as well.

But mostly i just want to see Toot cry havoc and unleash the fae of 'za!

Information comes from a Youtube link of Butcher reading at a charity event that has now been taking offline and Dresden Forums.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Abyss dude, that is sick. What's wrong with asking for good ol' fashioned extra T'n'A?? Dude's a ghost now, he should get some perks!

Where's the respect for post-apocalyptic Patrick Swayze :(
