Christmas Eve from JB's Twitter (no news, just fun)

Because obviously the idea that he was a normal guy is just too lame.

Well, I've only ever said he was a KotC. So this would only be the second thing I've suggested he was. :P
But no, I don't really think Kringle is Malcolm. I just think it was an interesting choice, from both Kringle's and Butcher's pov. Maybe it's just what it appears to be. An item that invokes a pleasant memory for Harry, to help lift his spirits at Christmas.
After all, Harry's dad is the one thing in the series that we're not supposed to think twice about.
Maybe Kringle was just being nice to a friend.
Maybe he's just a good man, a spirit unlike any other, who's acts are kind enough to make you weep. ;D
(For the record, I don't really think Malcolm was a KotC either, but I like the idea and the possibility)
Arjan:
Michael actually got a message from upstairs to leave Harry alone for his Christmas visitors. Just another sign of cooperation between the white god and fairy. The interaction between Mab and Mouse was also interesting.

* Molly's concern about Harry still being himself may just be due to the Knight mantle, but that's already been hashed a bit. But Eb dying and Harry getting the Blackstaff would give him someone to grieve over, it'd give Molly a reason to be concerned about him still being him, and it'd certainly make others think twice when Harry started yelling in their faces.

I had the feeling that Molly realizes the Winter Lady's mantle is changing her too. No one else besides Molly (and the other Queens of Fairie) knows the pressure the Winter Knight's mantel has placed on Harry, because Molly has felt a similar and perhaps a greater pressure from the Winter Lady's mantle. With the possible exception of Sarissa, the other Queens of Faerie might have the knowledge of how the Knight's mantel can twist its human host, but they are far beyond being able to empathize with that person. Apparently, Molly still can.

Sarissa knows, she was quite clear about that in cold days. And I am not sure about lack of empathy either, Mother summer was not without it.

On a completely different note...
Is it just my warped Dutch senses, or is Maggie crazy old to be getting what appears to be her first bike?
