Kincaid microfiction "Goodbye"
Mira:
--- Quote from: Regenbogen on March 12, 2020, 06:30:01 AM ---He might still be ashamed about the whole Winter Knight business and his failed suicide. Most other friends he didn't really contact by choice but more out of necessity or they contacted him. He didn't call Ebenezar either, for example.
--- End quote ---
He was ashamed, still is to a degree, though I wouldn't say ashamed so much as tainted morally in his mind.
Con:
I mean Dresden discusses his estrangement with Butters, Murphy and Michael. It was a key feature of Skin Game. Uriel was fighting for Harry's soul as much as Nicky and the Squires.
Dina:
It is different. I am not discussing "keeping in touch", but "letting them know I am not dead after all". Not telling Ivy and Kinkaid and perhaps not even Eb is bad.
noblehunter:
I think it'd be in character for Harry to avoid talking to them and justifying it because they almost certainly knew by the time he had the time to call. His return in Cold Days wasn't exactly low-key.

I get the feeling that the Archive knew all along what was going down, and it and Mab, perhaps with some help from Uriel set it all up. That is why Ivy insisted on a chest shot knowing that Mab would be waiting in the icy water to catch Harry and wisk him away to the island before he expired beyond retrieval.. Uriel may have made the wind blow just enough to throw the bullet off a couple of critical millimeters so the shot didn't cause instant death, perhaps even giving Harry a bit of a push so he'd land in the water as opposed to on the deck where he would have bled out in seconds and became all dead.
So no doubt, Ivy knew he wasn't dead.. Kincaid may not know, nor Eb, but think of the events of Cold Days, Harry was pretty busy at the time with more important things than letting his friends know that he was alive.
