Mab/Murphy Ironies
peregrine:
--- Quote from: raidem on October 25, 2017, 01:48:00 PM ---Nope peregrine, it just requires jim, a English major major with master's degree and several references to Shakespeare in woj, references to mab not being always so tall to conclude he knows where tiny but fierce comes from...Shakespeare.
And he liberally uses it to describe Murphy, which in my mind at the least further connects in a circumstantial way Murphy with stories about faeries.

But when he uses "There you are" in which case it's all about everyone saying it knowing that Harry is a time traveling dimension hopper, and literally everyone but Harry knows that. Then it's all in character stuff and nothing to do with Jim as an author?
raidem:
There would be an overlay. One reading without a time travel cycle, one with a cycle with that meaning yes. These are future Harry's journals we are reading. Both have already happened.

Yea.. his Doyalist and Watsonian often overlap in purposes.
wardenferry419:
There is something to wrap your head around. We are reading books written in the future in first person, present-tense.
raidem:
Yeah, I think we need a thread delving into what all that entails. Particularly given he would have already written the time travel book. And, he may or may not have already written the BAT.
