the Price to Mab on Christmas

<< < (3/5) > >>

RobReece:
Maybe Mab qualified as family, afterall she is Molly's "Mother" at the moment...

seriously though, it's the fae qualification that passed her through the threshold, but I'm sure she had clearance from Uriel to pass the Guard, two different barriers.  But it wasn't a surprise, they just didn't show the agreement on screen.

exartiem:
#1 Harry is Mab's Knight.

#2 did Mab do anything other than appear and talk?  I truly don't remember if she interacted physically with anything.  She could have been a projection into Harry's mind.

#3 perhaps she got permission from the Guardian Angels to mimic "A Christmas Carol".  (Kringle the ghost of Christmas past, Mab the present and Molly the future)

#2 she interacted with Mouse and she physically gave him the present for Maggie.
#3 that's what I said just above, except I'd put Mab as Future, the present was for Maggie and Harry has called her his future, Molly I'd put as the Present as she was dealing with current issues and i agreed with Kringle as the Past.

Arjan:
Being a skinwalker scion brings spiritual baggage. The power is not neutral or benevolent and Michael immediately had feelings about it. The angels will have that as well and Grey feels threatened by the angelic guard purely because of what they are. Uriel is glad Grey did not try. He was uncomfortable with the situation. I do not think Grey was a threat at that moment, it is purely about what he is.

The Sidhe are different. They are not evil as such and obey a strict set of rules that make them predictable in certain situations especially when they come as guests. There is still a group of cobblers living in Michaels house for example.

Adding to that Uriel and Mab and Uriel and Kringle have dealings with each other, they sometimes work together for common goals, they have a certain understanding of each other. That became very clear in changes but was already visible in small favor where Mab waited until Uriel was finished with Harry to give her speech. And she liked his style.

And so Uriel or another one from above told Michael a spoiler and told him to give Harry some space for his meeting with Kringle or something like that. They work together, they sometimes work a bit against each other when a Sidhe has a claim on a mortal maybe but they are certainly polite about it because as Jim once said they work for the same company only very different departments.

There are also strict rules in place for their interaction. In grave peril for example Michael told Harry that if Harry had a deal with Lea there was not much he could do about it. They have spheres of influence.

I want to say the cultists got onto the property at Michaels, and yet weren't immediately squashed, so obviously there's certain threats that the Angels will or will not engage.

--- End quote ---

Well, the cultists were mortals, and thus engaging in an excersice of Free Will. The Angels can't do anything about that.
