The YLC (Why Little Chicago) thread
Quaras:
You could bring in every small creature that Harry has ever annoyed/ignored. There are quite a few out there that would be thrilled to have a teeny Harry to chase after. Serack -- very glad you like the idea. I am not sure it fits into the great sequence that is being written, but you never know!
15: Heist
16: Time Travel
17: Lewis Carroll riff
18: Asgard/Interplanetary Travel
Ok now, I am getting a little off topic, but still the fact that book #15 is a heist really opens up the possibilities. And the great thing is Harry fixes LC but in a completely unexpected (and urgent) way. The ticking time bomb of old Harry getting ready to cast the spell while little Harry tries to scale small buildings and fix the city is pretty fun as a premise.

It was in the subbasement, which might be a bit sturdier and the whole lab might have survived. But that isn't the biggest clue to it. The biggest clue is, that Marcone built a friggin' castle on top of it. If Gard has figured out how to use LC, or if he has found other gifted individuals, he might use it to track down the Fomor's movements, or any other supernatural actions in Chicago. Or whatever the hell he can figure out to do with it. He is pretty intelligent in that regard, I think.

Eh...there's a WoJ somewhere stating that LC is probably toast, since Changes is all about taking all of Harry's stuff away from him. His lab is pretty well gone, and, well, if you're building a castle on a piece of land, you're probably having to lay a new foundation, which would include a sub-basement. That's all speculation mind you, but, unless Jim decides to resurrect it, and, like you say, there's some wiggle room there if he wants it, all signs indicate it's gone.

You know... I dislike time travel in fiction because its rarely done interestingly enough. Star Trek abused and misused that well way too often.
If Harry had to go back and use LC only to be trapped and that was the ticking clock (fix it before blowing both his selves up....) That could be done right.

svb1972:
I firmly believe that the person who fixed Little Chicago is Harry.
So, this is one of my more outrageous theories.
Harry is Merlin.
Merlin is Harry.
Harry is going to need to greatly improve his time travel skills in order to pull of creating DemonReach.
One of his first Steps into time travel is going to be going back to repair LC in order to use it to find something so much more important than what's going on with Past Harry. We have been told time and time again that Harry is /spectacularly good/ at Thaumaturgy. He's better at Thaumaturgy than Molly is at Illussions.
