He Couldn't Lose [SG Spoilers]
namkcas:
There are plenty of examples many of them small. For example, Michael's sudden ability to be a combat medic in SG when he told Harry earlier that Charity was the one with the medical training.
Let me use a classic. Harry and Lea have a conversation in Changes about her garden that guards his other side. She notes she was always able to find him because they are so close together. However, multiple times Harry says that distance in the NN is not like that in the real world. That being 10 steps away in the Real World could be 1/2 the size of the NN. So which is it?
All I was trying to imply is that I take the word of later novels over the earlier ones. A claim in SF is less likely to be true than one in SG. Not an absolute, but a weight.

That's not really an inconsistency. Faeries are pretty fast in general, and Lea had Maggie Sr.'s NN notes. Lea has the stamina to not worry much about whatever NN environment she's going into next, so no slowing down there. Not to mention whatever option Odin came up with post-Chichen Itza is probably available to her in a pinch. Shadowing Harry shouldn't be all that difficult for Lea. Basically, "close" is relative to the ability to travel quickly.
Mith:
Not to mention that Lea can probably speed herself up when trying to reach Harry, since he is her Godson.

There's also the fact that in Turn Coat, naagloshii don't procreate but in Skin Game we meet the scion of a naagloshii.
I'll... I'll show myself out.
