Basic Trope: A shopkeeper is The Stoic, and doesn't take any funny business.
- Straight: Sam is the shopkeeper of a liquor store, and Wolfgang the werewolf comes in trying to buy some alcohol. Sam doesn't care that he's seen a werewolf, and just asks him to give his ID and actually pay for the drinks.
- Exaggerated: Crazy antics happen to Sam every day, and all he cares about is that the customers don't steal.
- Downplayed: Sam does comment very briefly on Wolfgang being a werewolf, but it's not really his priority.
- Justified:
- Sam has Seen It All.
- Sam thinks it'd be rude for him to comment on someone being a werewolf, and sees no reason why he has to single Wolfgang out as an unusual customer if he's not harming anyone.
- Inverted: Sam makes a huge deal out of a customer doing something completely normal.
- Subverted: ???
- Double Subverted: ???
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: ???
- Averted:
- Wolfgang is never seen entering a store in his wolf form.
- Sam finds it highly unusual that a werewolf is in his store.
- Enforced: "Wouldn't it be funny if Wolfgang went into a liquor store in his wolf form, but the cashier said nothing about it other than asking for his ID?"
- Lampshaded: ???
- Invoked: ???
- Exploited: ???
- Defied: ???
- Discussed: ???
- Conversed: "Some shopkeepers in fiction just really don't care what goes on around them."
Listen, the Super-Stoic Shopkeeper doesn't care what you're doing here, just as long as it's not illegal.
