But remember when Harry Saw the two Queens? They were huge beyond belief, literal forces of nature. So what we see of Mab is not even close to her true form it would seem.
peregrine:
I wouldn't say that we can call what Harry Sees their "true" form. Unless Murphy is actually an angel. The immense size is a metaphor for their power, rather than them being titanic creatures that wear people sized suits of meat to interact with people.

I think that's actually been unofficially confirmed, right? Someone got him to say that Lash was the parasite while he was signing their book. 'Course, he could have been using "Lash" and "Lasciel" interchangeably. He's done that before. Or the parasite could be the combined being of Lash and Lasciel, and the Whispering Fallen could have been someone other than Lasciel. Like Anduriel, for instance. He always seemed like a great suspect, since his physical form was just a shadow to begin with, and he did come very close to killing Nicodemus. Nic might have pressured Anduriel into getting rid of Harry, even if it broke a Rule.

Lash could appear to Harry however she liked; in whatever form she desired. She could make him see anything she wanted.
She knows Harry better than anyone at this point. She knows he always tries to do the "right thing." She knows he rejected her help no matter how useful it would have been, simply because he knew that she was a fallen angel. What's a girl to do? Put on an Archangel costume instead. Make him think he's working for The Good Guys™.
I'll post this in its own thread, I suspect that it might warrant some serious derailment.
Here's the thread I started.

--- End quote ---
Lash is the only logical candidate for the parasite. We have woj that both are back and mentioned not by name in Ghost Story. At the moment the remnants of Lash live of Harries soul. With just enough power to help keep the body alive, something Lasciel would not do.
