the Price to Mab on Christmas
peregrine:
My point is that it's not an issue of Threat or Not Threat. Actual threats (the cultists) were not stopped, while Grey, who was not a threat but may or may not have been considered one, didn't want to push his luck. That doesn't prove much re: Mab being a threat one way or another.

Only 2 should have been able to freely enter with out spoken permission. It is Mols family home she is good. The mantle of Kringle could freely on that night by his normal means (fire place, with a gift). Mab appeared magically, with out spoken permission. That would be not possible in a normal morals home. Let alone one protected by the Heavenly Host. Michael seams like he gets a message, smiles and walks away. He never invites Queen Mab in. She would have Had to Strike a deal with an agent of the WG (most likely Mr. Sunshine) to part the super threshold.
So what might it have cost her??? (or did Jim forget how well he created his worlds rules)

She made a reservation. She had Kringle call Uriel's people and clear the decks so her crew could visit Harry without interruption. She is also an family member by Mantle. Michael tricked Harry into suggesting his own gift. Uriel passed that datum to Kringle who was holding on the hot line waiting for the heads up, so he could bring the right present. And finally Uriel gave Malcolm a Christmas pass for a magic moment. And as usual Harry was the only entity not in the loop. And Michael's kids got cheated.
Otherwise the normal rules apply. Grey isn't human and isn't on the guest list and maybe has history. The cultists were mortals. The Angels are there to protect from supernatural threats.
