Kincaid microfiction "Goodbye"

Addendum:
That means Ivy is /alone/. That's got to be problematic just from her mental/social/emotional state...

Lots of people have been anticipating her reappearance in Peace Talks after Ghost Story's revelation about Kincaid. Most of the context of those posts have been "Boy, what happens when Ivy finds out what Kincaid did? Does she know? It's going to be mighty awkward when the two of them show up!"
But... she's parted with Kincaid. That means we may see both of them apart from one another, in totally separate circumstances. As in, Ivy is a mediator during the Talks. Kincaid is a mercenary sent by *insert X-faction here* to eliminate *insert Y-target here*.
I feel like this really does free up Kincaid as a character to go from tentative ally/colleague/guy-who-owed-you-one-so-you-asked-him-to-kill-you to possible full-on antagonist.
I'm also going to say it here: Ivy contacted Mab and told her what was going to happen, but waited until Kincaid's flight landed or something. That's how Mab knew to save him, and that's why Ivy insisted on a center-mass shot instead of a headshot.

True, but Ivy seems to know what's going down. She *asks* for a chest shot. She knows what's going down and wants to ensure Harry can be recovered. Which means she was intentionally or unintentionally clued in by conversations with Mab and DR. And if she knows this, she (present day) knows Harry lives. Sure it was rough on her, but not nearly as traumatic as Molly had to deal with.
Silentbrick:
Considering that the Gatekeeper said he'd help Harry with the paperwork for the Council to show he's alive, Ivy would certainly know Harry is up and about and probably that he's the Winter Knight. I'm still really curious how the Merlin reacted to finding out that not is Harry alive and now WK, but Molly is the Winter Lady. I'm sure it'd make the Anti-Harry faction of the Council dislike him more, claiming, "SEE SEE, he's always been Mab's creature!"

He used the phone which meant that the conversation with Kincaid went digital. So she owns it, unless the Archive is obsolete. And since she can model the future she knows Harry's best chance was for a chest shot. Which explains something. It's possible that she knew during Ghost Story what was going on. Also Harry is a d**k if he didn't write a note to her after he woke up.
