WAG.... Murphy has moved on
groinkick:
Here is just a guess, but I think Murphy will have moved on from Harry. She hasn't told him because the time wasn't right. I'm thinking Harry's "death" resulted in her finding the comfort from another man who was there for her in her time of sadness. Then his extended time on Demon Reach after his return gave more time for this relationship to unfold. When she told Harry they would "talk about it later" when she found Harry fantasizing about her, I think it's going to be she tells him that she's engaged. She will explain how she's getting older, and he's not going to. That his life is too important to be risking on her, and that she just doesn't have any fight left. That she wants to settle down, and live a semi normal life. Not sure who this man will be but I just think (hope) this is how it's going to unfold. She cannot possibly keep up with the dangerous path he's on. Thomas at full strength would barely keep up let alone a middle aged woman with no powers. Unless she takes up a Mantle....

I've long realized that :). I've even ventured a guess, but I guess there are other options to consider other than Mab. I don't know but a series that begins with Harry and Murphy working cases together then ending together working together to save the Universe (Mab and her knight) screams symmetric to me. And, I like it. (There actually is a WOJ that Mab and Harry will save or attempt to save the Universe Mab style. So that is what Mab is up to; she is working with Harry to save it her way.)
Others don't but who cares.
There is a WOJL that says people have figured things out, and the internet is working against him :) I just don't know what the 'things' are. IF Mab=Murphy at some point, (which I've not had the greatest track record but if so, I'd count myself as working hard to propagate that theory). That said, Jim mentions there are like some far out theories but then they have nuggets of truth or in some small part touch too close to what is actually going on. (Paraphrasing lots)
In the same WOJL, he mentions some far out theories that he joshes like:
Harry is Merlin living his life backwards in time.
a few others, can't think of them right now; none were specific to my theories though. He didn't get to finish his thought though before he was asked about the Prisoner in Demonreach being Merlin to which he responded: No.
Mr. Death:
They hooked up, enthusiastically, at the end of the last book. There's no way that Jim is going to spend the prior three books setting it up only to can the whole thing before the next book even comes out.
Haven't we had enough of these "Murphy can't keep up" threads? Haven't we had this argument enough times already? Haven't we all seen that the kind of nonsense that it brings out is one of the reasons Iago is shutting the whole place down?
Let it go.

I haven't read the book in a while. I remember Harry having a dream about hooking up, not that they actually did. At the end of the book she was in a hospital bed with a horribly injured leg.

For people being rude to each other.

Making out with Harry. Very, very happily. After professing her love to him. After risking her life for him explicitly out of her love for him. After promising to walk through hell with him.
Murphy, throughout Skin Game, makes it abundantly, absolutely clear that she is definitely into Harry and reciprocates his affections and love.
Cold Days and Ghost Story, her arcs were very specifically about how she very much did not move on from Harry.

None of the starting posts on any of the now-locked Murphy threads were rude. They all led to the same place.
This whole "Murphy can't keep up" discussion has happened dozens of times. None of them end well. Seeing another thread start up on the exact same discussion point that's led to flaming and locked threads dozens of times before is frustrating. You've been in some of those threads, so I can't imagine you don't see where this is going to go.
