The truth about Fitz

Carlos' family has a restaurant and the White Court don't have many operations in LA. Morgan had his love for Luccio. Ebenezar has a truck load of stories mentioned in passing attributed to him. Hell, half of the Alphas left to go do their own thing rather than stay in Chicago to play protector to the city.

Jim has said he has "a whole stable" of support characters, many of which may never get into the books. Hell, Klaus the Toymaker was only mentioned in passing back in SK, but he apparently has a whole backstory from WWII.

Yes, Fitz means bastard, but people have names like Fitzgerald and they are not bastards, an ancestor was. Surely Fitz knows what is coming if he is indeed her son, yet how long is he going to stick around those kids? I mean can you see Zero leaving him?

Some interesting conjecture. Indeed, Fitz's name may have significance or it may just be someone naming him that because it sounded nice to them. Hopefully we will learn something in the next book. I have no idea what form a baby from a human and non human comes out. I think it may vary, some human looking and some the non human parent looking and some somewhere in between. I think Fix may be a scion of a human and non human. He seemed to be more mind magic resistant than normal besides the being able to hear Harry and the unusual eyes. Hopefully Zero wasn't named that because he is worthless. ;)

Yeah, we have no evidence that either Tara West or MacFadden could hear or see ghosts, but that doesn't mean that they couldn't. I got the impression that Tara West was much more inclined to the wolf side than her "human side," so if Fitz is a son, he may have several bothers and sisters also under the curse.
Dina:
I think the curse is only for one person and if McFinn died wirhout a child, his closer relative will inherit it.
Mira, we discussed the idea of why Tera would abandon his child or something like that in the fist pages of this thread. I agree that Tera would have done a good job, but we don't know the circumstances. Perhaps McFinn didn't want a child (because of the curse) so she never told him she was pregnant and she left the baby with her lupine family. Then, remember she said she has lost many of her family. Perhaps she thought her puppy had died, but he was playing Mowgli in the forest. Who knows?
I always found very rare the WoJ about not planning to use Fitz. He has been too well described and he was left so open (we still don't know why he heard ghosts) that when I was reading GS, I was sure Fitz will be in the next books. I still hope he come back.

I agree. Many of us singled him out as a great new character addition because of the way he was introduced and the relative unnecessary nature of his part of the GS storyline. The whole point of that storyline seemed to be to introduce Fitz as a relevant character for future books (I know there was a Harry epiphany involved, but it still feels like a tangent if that's all it was for). I was very disappointed when I saw that WoJ about Fitz being a one-shot. :(
I hope he comes back, too.
