Funny thing is that Harry knows that he could use his talents to be fantastically wealthy.

123Chikadee:
@Mira: The WOJ that Harry would find out something that Lea was involved with and that they would fight over it. I'm just guessing at the context of the fight.
For me I'm just going on the fact that she was beginning to regret how her life turned out b/c it keeps her a tad more sympathetic than if she just got in too deep and had to run. That way she's already on that path when she meets Malcolm and that convinces her to stick with it.

@morriswalters: Oh, ok so instead of WCV trying to mind whammy Malcolm after he and Margaret are already in love, they tried to do so beforehand just as a preventive measure?
Ok, that makes sense. It makes me wonder if Margaret realized, even after she changed her ways, and got together w/ Malcolm, that she'd still create a starborn. Since she felt guilt over what happened to Harry, I don't think the irony was lost on her.

@Bad Alias: Right bt its much more fun to tease him about it. :)

I wasn't aware of that WOJ.  For me either way Margaret is a sympathetic character, it makes no difference whether she began to repent on her own or did after she meets Malcolm.  The point is she changed.

morriswalters:
Stalin could have changed.  It wouldn't have unfilled the graves he created with his victims.  For the purpose of the story I accept that she loved her son, but to quote Goodman Grey, she evidently was a piece of work.

The deal was done.  Lash calls it in White Knight.
--- Quote ---"It is relevant," Lasciel said, "because of the circumstances of your birth—because of why you were born, Harry. Your mother found the strength to escape Lord Raith for a reason."
What the hell was she talking about?
Thud-thump: 1:26.
"There was a complex confluence of events, of energies, of circumstances that would have given a child born under them the potential to wield power over Outsiders."
--- End quote ---
Nothing about his birth was random. Not the when or the why.  Malcolm may or may not be a scion.  But she was moving to a point.  She may have regretted doing to Harry whatever she did.  But the operative phrase is "she did".  So Harry was meant to be born on Halloween.  Margaret couldn't control conception but she could control time.  She could lay up in the Nevernever and come out when the time was at hand.

123Chikadee:
Oh that's a neat idea for her to wait/alter time in the Nevernever.
