Name someone you want to appear in Peace Talks

<< < (2/10) > >>

Kindler:
A couple years back I was pushing pretty hard for Tilly's return. I'd still like it if it turned out he's become a kind of FBI equivalent to Murphy after Changes, and showed up at the Peace Talk summit to speak up for vanilla mortals. Double fun points if his attendance was sponsored by Baron Marcone, because it'd be wonderful to see Tilly gritting his teeth to cooperate with "villain, scum" for the greater good.

I think we're also due for an Elaine visit (overdue? I can't remember anymore. I'm getting old.)

Cowl is also a reasonable bet, I believe. Whether or not he'll be wearing his namesake is a different question, but I'm sure Cowl, disguised or not, will be at the summit.

I also think Listens-to-Wind will be there. We haven't seen him since he extended his offer to teach Harry about Anger Management, which is a lesson Harry could really use right now.

Dollars to doughnuts that Vaderrung will be there (not Kringle, though). He's a Signatory with a vested interest in negotiating peace.

Cristos will probably be there too. I'm willing to bet money that he'll be trying to maneuver and wheel and deal behind the scenes. I hope a Trickster god drops a piano on him. Or Harry just lights him on fire. Boy oh boy, do I hate smugness.

Haven't seen Billy since Ghost Story and Georgia since Turn Coat, so it wouldn't surprise me if there was an Alpha presence. I can picture Harry calling them up to act as a secret backup plan. On the other hand, this is exactly the kind of attention Harry was trying to keep them away from, so... maybe not. Though I think Peace Talks may devolve into an All Hands on Deck situation.

As others have pointed out, Mavra is a possibility. Especially since the Black Court is a signatory.

Nobody else comes to mind about whom I have a strong opinion.

RobReece:
I think Jim let something slip a little at the ConnectIcon panel this last weekend.  He made a comment about Rivershoulders representing the Forest People at the Peace Talks... So there will be at least one powerful participant who will have Harry's back.

If the he comes right out and says that in Peace Talks, what do you want to bet that the issue will still be hotly contested here? I can see it now: "he was just taking credit for the plan."

123Chikadee:
A lot of people already said which characters I would like to see too. Hm, I think I'd like to see as well would be the Paranet in general, but other than say Abbey, I don't know who would act as representative. I would like to see the Paranet try to get a seat at the big kids table as it were.
Yeah, I'm gaining more or an appreciation of Langtry as a character. Huh.

No bet. That would be an ongoing debate among fans for several books. I mean, we still have debates about whether or not everyone Lily claimed were actually Infected, and that was also spoken about as plainly as possible. The Merlin is a politician, and I can see him taking credit for something he had no part in, because he's done similar things before. Dude's a weasel. Just... a weasel with access to orbital nukes and carrying a BFG-9000. Meanwhile, Harry's got the number to Pizza 'Spress.

I'd like that a lot, too. It would be pretty cool to see the Have Nots try to speak up at something like this. There's precedent for their representation too, with Harry challenging the White Court vamps to a duel on their behalf in White Night (something about how they fall under the White Council's "legitimate interests" or some such legalese).

That would be really cool, especially after the Genoskwa situation in Skin Game. I'd love to see Harry and River Shoulders have a conversation about the different factions within the Forest People.
