The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers

Non-plot moments you're most looking forward to

<< < (3/7) > >>

dspringer1:
Three Scenes that will be good to see
1) Harry introduces Molly to Ebenezzer

2) Harry, Murphy and the Cops at SI working together around Peace Talks.  Harry is presumed terrorist/dead, Murphy is presumed crooked/crazy/crippled and Stalling/Rallings at SI seeing them again when things get really weird/dangerous. 

3) The cops at SI seeing Butters as a Knight of the Cross for the first time -- knowing that this is Butters! 

As you can tell, I think it has been too long since the SI cops have had a part in a Dresden book.  :)

Kindler:

--- Quote from: Snark Knight on May 04, 2019, 01:09:55 AM ---Given Jim's affinity for torturing the reader via Harry, I can't really see that playing out many ways other than her seeing his memory of sacrificing Susan. Although I kind of wonder if it wouldn't strike Harry harder for her to actually understand - showing him she grasps how nasty the world can be at times - than to hate him for it.

--- End quote ---

I think she'll see Harry's guilt over it, and over a whole ton of other events over his life. I don't think that moment is the defining one for Harry; he's had too many other important ones during his life. He's not Helen Beckitt, you know? His soul isn't defined by killing Susan like hers was when her daughter was shot, but Harry's guilt over it (and over everything else that's happened when he failed, or thinks he failed) is. It's like when Harry soulgazed Molly; he didn't see her memory of using magic, he saw that she had potential. When Maggie soulgazes Harry, I think she'll see that he's done terrible things, but tries to do better things, too. Does that make sense?

If anything, Maggie is the one whose life-defining moment happened at Chichen Itza. So Harry might see himself killing Susan, because she's never been able to move past it (though apparently she doesn't remember it, trauma has a nasty habit of lingering despite blanks in your memory; she still has panic attacks, as I recall).

Regenbogen:
I would like to see Harry's first contact with the White Council (especially with the Merlin) as Winter Knight. This might result in them  asking why he has decided to become the WK and they will ask why he made such a big decicion for a mere clients child as he claimed. They will know the child must be special to him and why.
So I am also looking forward to seeing Maggie introduced to the Council.
And how her relationship with Harry and Ebenezar develops.

And I am curious how the Karrin-Harry relationship continues.

Regenbogen:
Me again ;D

... And it would be fun, if Mab ordered Harry to contact the Merlin and beg him to teach him how to be a better Warden for Demonreach by improving bis magical abilitys. Because there may be knowledge passed down from Merlin to Merlin since the original one createt the wards on the Island. And only he can teach Harry. That would be horrible for both of them. Muahaha.  ;D

ClintACK:
Lea taking Harry and Maggie to see Susan's grave

(She promises, at the end of Changes, to arrange Susan's burial and to take him to visit whenever he wishes.)
