--- Quote from: Avernite on April 12, 2020, 10:03:52 PM ---The only solid things we have on black magic are:
1) the Laws
2) the Laws are incomplete
--- End quote ---
My understanding is that the Council's Laws of Magic are meant to be 1:1 for the Universe's Laws of Magic and the Laws of Magic cover black magic. I think the Universe's Laws of Magic are black magic, but the Council's Laws of Magic are both over and under inclusive.
Also the prohibition on time travel and messing around with Outsiders may not be black magic per se, but are considered too dangerous because they can too easily destroy the universe.
--- Quote from: Mira on April 13, 2020, 11:42:37 AM --- Actually I had forgotten the part about the steel, however I also doubt that Susan believed it or
that it made any difference once she knew the truth about Martin.

I agree in that I don't think it made a difference in what Susan would have done. I do think it makes a difference in the morality of Harry's actions.
@g33k: Jim has said that Mab would leave Harry to deal with the White Council if Harry violated the Laws of Magic and came after him.

The morality of Harry's actions? Good grief!
Bad Alias:
Yes. Harry clearly was trying to manipulate Susan.

Was not that exactly what she signed up for? Everything to save Maggie?
Bad Alias:
--- Quote ---I knew how angry she was. I knew how afraid she was. Her child was about to die only inches beyond her reach, and what I did to her was as good as murder.
I focused my thoughts and sent them to Susan. Susan! Think! Who knew who the baby's father was? Who could have told them?
Her lips peeled away from her teeth.
His knife can't hurt you, I thought, though I knew damned well that no faerie magic could lithely ignore the touch of steel.
--- End quote ---
Harry lied when Susan didn't immediately do what Harry wanted her to do. It was a d*ck move. I would have done the same thing in his shoes.
