35. Murphy's mom is 100% dying, in my opinion (pretty sure this is what Jim meant by his "Murphy's funeral." tweet), and it'll be entirely unrelated to the main plot. It'll just be one more thing for Harry to juggle.

That is possible, didn't think of that. After reading the Christmas Story, I was no longer completely convinced that Karrin will die in Peace Talks, because Harry wasn't acting like that had happened. But I thought of Karrin's father. Maybe the Murphy's funeral comment refered to his funeral. Maybe something significant happened there. Writing about Murphy's funeral could mean, that Karrin tells Harry about it. And they realize, someone said something or did something that explains what happened later. She only now understands.

I think Cristos will live precisely because he is either Black Council or has a firm grasp on the idiot ball. I'd bet he'll be around to cause problems for a while now.

On Eb: the impact of his death would extend way past the way Harry feels about it, though. A Senior Council member and the Blackstaff snuffing it would have seriously significant consequences, and I don't see those consequences getting a chance to be explored in Mirror, Mirror.
Though I do agree that anyone who's dies in Peace Talks in Universe Prime could have their character and Harry's feelings very thoroughly explored in Mirror, Mirror, too. For instance, I expect Morgan to be an antagonist to Mirrorverse Harry, and Prime Harry's going to feel really weird about going up against him after Turn Coat.

Yep, it's either Murphy's Mom or a flashback to Jack's. I assume the flashback to Jack Murphy's funeral would get triggered by Mama Murphy's.

Murphy hasn't been mentioned at all since Skin Game... It could mean nothing, she is recovering Harry is preoccupied with Maggie... But then again, it is odd given the implied direction for them at the end of Skin Game... We've seen avoidance in Harry before when he is grieving, that could be why she isn't mentioned at all, nor was she a part of Christmas... Very odd given how close Harry and her are, I know lots of plausible reasons for her not being there have been mentioned, but you'd think that a gift from her would carry at least as much weight as one from Mab... But no gift from "Aunt Karrin" was mentioned..

Yes. This could mean, she has died before Christmas. Or they broke up... But it doesn't necessarily mean she will die in Peace Talks. There could be another book between. Peace Talks is in summer. A lot can happen in half a year.

Very true, but honestly if she is indeed the one who is doomed to die, do you really think it will happen off page? :o
