Not the same topic, but back to the LC topic. This made me muse that maybe LC was broken by a foe and that no one actually fixed it, per se. If a time trazel foe arrived and broke it (I remember Bob saying the flaw was previously unseen despite prior scrutiny), then Dresden could have also time travelled and stopped the foe through interference. The overlapping timelines would all still require cause and effect It’s all a bit fuzzy, but maybe LC was never fixed because it was never broken in the final version of that timeline.  :o

To illustrate.
Timeline 1 (TL1)- LC is fine, not broken
TL2- foe or foes time travel and, through some method, cause flaw in LC which Bob notes
TL3- timeline now contains ramifications from TL2. Future Dresden goes back and defeats foe or foes and, in so doing, negates flaw from occurring with LC and whatever else foe or foes achieved to a greater or lesser extent
TL4- this is the timeline we are viewing when LC is “fixed”. Many other things from future Dresden’s TL3 will also have changed, but this is not TL1

The text of the books could have contained a bit of all the above timelines without alerting the reader.

Where’s raidem? Look, I’m talking about time travel!

I've been going to they gym, swimming, and walking.  After they finally/recently diagnosed low B12 and sleep apnea for me and treated me for it, I've gotten lots better.

That had cost her something. Murphy has more pride than is good for her. And yes, I am aware of the proverb about glass houses and stones. So I didn’t give her any more of a hard time than I already had. “Don’t go all romantic on me now, Murph.”
She smiled a little and rolled her eyes. “If we ever did get together, I’d kill you inside a week. Now, go get some rest. You’re useless to me like this.”

What did Mab try to do to Harry when she brought back Harry to Arctis Tor for training, try to kill him daily.  Just wanted to throw that in.  :)
It doesn't necessarily pertain to this topic but I was listening to the audiobook while walking at the park and heard that and tied it into Cold Days beginning where Mab puts him through rehab training.

Now as to the timeline, I like what you did with it.  It's plausible, understandable.  I like the idea that there are multiple timelines and team bad and team good, or at least multiple players, are doing things in the background that we won't find out about until later.

Nice! Congrats. I’m about to rejoin my gym. I used to go 4-5 days a week, but stopped for a few years after a bad running injury. I really miss it. Have you seen Primer yet?  You gotta see it if you haven’t! It’s the best time travel film, ever.

raidem:
Yeah, I've watched it.  I got a bit confused toward the end, but got the gist of it.
