Peace Talks character death wag
Maz:
While I whole-heartedly agree that this is prime time for McCoy to die, Susan wasn't the only emotional death and for me was probably the 3rd or 4th so... I'd say Morgan made me 10x misty-eyed compared to Susan. But maybe I'm just weird.
My only contra to the McCoy dying argument is that I'm not sure Harry is entirely ready to step up into McCoy's shoes and giving the staff to him in particular has complications... I'm presuming if McCoy dies, the staff either goes to the new Blackstaff or else reverts to its owner... To keep it under control of the council but give it to Dresden, McCoy would have to circumvent the council in delivering it and somehow geas Dresden to only use it for Council purposes. Absent the geas, the staff would possibly be considered reverting to Winter which would cause an imbalance of power... If McCoy didn't deliver the staff to Dresden, then I imagine the Council itself would determine the recipient and there is no way Dresden is on the list of primary recipients... which could also lend itself to an interim holder from McCoy's death until the time Dresden takes it up.
Mira:
I seem to recall a "Tweet" from Jim maybe a year ago give or take that he was emotional after writing Murphy's funeral... It created a bit of stir here of course. The question is, was he really or just pulling our legs?
wardenferry419:
Hopefully we will find out around November. That is my rare optimism talking.
Mira:
Some would say that it is Murphy's time to die.... Harry loves her, that alone is the kiss of death... Also since she left the police force and refused to become a Holy Knight, there isn't a real place for her that is meaningful, that is why she appears so hollow in the last couple of books.
raidem:
We now have Jim responding yes that there will be a cost for Murphy to standby Harry. And yes, smirk, he thinks he knows what it will be.
