1. Not all the residents of Chicagotory are without scars. Carmichael and Amitiel are, but Captain Jack is described as being pretty battered. From chapter
--- Quote ---...he looked like a professional boxer. There was scar tissue here and there around his eyes, and his nose had been frequently broken.

Okay, everyone, please continue with the nearly unfounded but vastly entertaining speculation! *grabs a bowl of popcorn*

Oh, and even though I said it in the baby thread already; Congratulations, Serack! Happy soon-to-be-fatherhood to you!

Nice catch, will do, and thanks!
Interesting info about the cars.

* Although Harry has no magic, he is still able to use his Sight, at least in Chicagatory
* He bleeds ectoplasm
* He can feel pain
* Despite the snow, there are potted plants with leaves in Morty's garden and hedges
* Sir Stu is familiar, apparently, with Harry Dresden's name and reputation. I think he saw Harry in DM and DB.
* If a wraith devoured Harry, it would become so powerful that it could threaten the living
A little bit off-topic: when I read about Stu spending 5 years listening to Pink Floyd, I immediately thought of this.

I really like some of these.
Mordite:
Memory (or whatever) glitches aside, I think Harry's seeing everyone (and, by extension, everything) as they themselves picture themselves. Or at least, as they would like to be. (cf: slimmer Mort's bald-patedness, the folks in Chicagotory)
As to the snow, didn't someone suggest that Mab would be a little... annoyed at losing her Knight?

I still stand by my theory that Titania didn't regain the control over the Stone Table in December. Mab is too rational to cause snowfall just because. Either the snow is an effect of Winter being dominant, or it's a tool that Mab uses to slow down Summer agents (like she did in SmF).
Durwen:
Well, if Harry is indeed DED dead and the Knight mantle has gone back to Winter, Mab is now more powerful than Titania by one athame.
However, I think that if the balance of the Faerie Courts had gone so far out of whack as to prevent Summer to regain control of the Table, we'd be looking at something a tad more cataclysmic than a foot and a half of snow in May.

That's only the case if Mab has bestowed the mantle on a new Knight, though. Otherwise, Winter is stuck without a mortal agent-- and from what we've seen in the books so far, the Courts tend to find their Knights very useful.
I think this is one of the more important questions about what's been happening since Harry's death: did Mab choose a new Winter Knight or not? If not, Winter is at a disadvantage similar to the one it had while Slate was being tortured. If so, then how would Mab manage to wrangle Harry back into the Winter Knight job?
