Just a guess about Peace Talks

<< < (2/12) > >>

Rasins:
I'm wondering WHERE they'll hold the talks?  All those supernaturals and you can't just rent out a conference center.

Since it's in Chicago, do you think Marcone will host it at his place?  That would totally ruin his threshold.

I kind of doubt they'll want to have it at the BFS location.

DemonReach is out.

Any ideas?

Kindler:
Undertown?

I doubt it.  There's no real difference between them until they hit puberty as near as we can tell.  They've got to get that first kill before it happens.  Otherwise you get into some really messed up parts, like a toddler who eats sex, basically.  I can't imagine Jim wanting to go down that route.

Erm, why not, exactly?

Griffyn612:
I said this a few years back, but since it's been a while, I'll rehash it.

My prediction/hope was that the Talks would be held in a hotel in Chicago (maybe the one from Skin Game, maybe the Rothchild from Summer Knight).  Harry would be there as the Winter Knight (escorting the Winter Lady).  It would be hosted by Marcone, with the hotel closed off to the general public, and a bunch of wards protecting the place.

It'd start with the attendees being introduced, and one of the reveals would be the Eebs arriving with a small retinue of Ramps (either as the inheritors of the Red Court, or as Fomor members).

Things would really snap off when one of the Eebs ended up dead, which would trigger wards that would lock down the hotel, preventing anyone from coming or going.  A bunch of powerful beings would be trapped together, none of them trusting each other, and believing the others are trying something.

Harry will be accused of the murder (something on the nose, like the Eeb being found frozen and shattered, a known method of execution for Harry now) and he'll have to solve the murder to clear his name, find the real killer, uncover the plot, and release the wards.

The sealed-off hotel would allow for that Shining-feel of isolated desperation. 

And of course, despite Harry's efforts, the Talks will be a disaster, people and things will die, the war will continue, and everyone will blame him.
