New Drop Chapter Two

Yuillegan:
Thanks for the heads up G33k, hit the wrong button.

(click to show/hide)It would be hilarious if Dresden had just caught the magical equivalent of a child's flu. Although it is weird to only introduce it now.
Also, there is one being in the place who could do something like that. Bonea. Half Wizard/Starborn, half Fallen Angel shadow.
The really weird thing is it used a lot of Harry's magic. Enough that even his mantle struggled. Seems pretty dangerous.

Dina:
First, a comment about this forum protocol- Even when this IS the spoiler section, traditionally we spoiler-tag all new info, specially in this case, as many people won't want to read this until they have the full book. But there was also a generally accepted convention: if we plan to use many spoilers in a thread, we clearly indicate it in the name of the thread. Like: [SPOILERS] New Drop chapter two. So, if the name of the thread says something like that, it is kosher to speak normally in every post. Instead, if the name of the thread has not marked as containing spoilers it is a very bad form to post anything spoilerific at all.

So, I will spoiler-tag  :)

(click to show/hide)I was  touch sad about the comment about Mister's age but I was glad to see him so soon in the book.
(click to show/hide)I feel so bad for Harry about Marcone buying his home. I really hope Harry has a chance to make him regret that.
(click to show/hide)I am worried for the "receptionist", because of the heavy foreshadowing about how lack of protocol can be the dead of him.
(click to show/hide)All of my base are belong to me ;D ;D ;D ;D
(click to show/hide)The sneeze is something very out of place for a WINTER knight, so the mantle abandoned Harry for a while? But not so much that he is crippled? Perhaps it's something Summer related, as if that could negate the winter effect? If not for the sneeze I would have thought Harry summoning things from the NN is a dangerous sign of him becoming a faerie himself, but the sneeze makes me think all the contrary, that the mantle is leaving him. Perhaps...the mantle is reacting to something that happened to any of the Queens? Like they are the source of its power so if something happens to them, the mantle weakens?
(click to show/hide)I wish Harry thought of Bonea as her daughter too. I was disappointed that is not the case.

cleoslemonade:
(click to show/hide)I think we're seeing more than just the beginnings of a wizard flu. Harry probably would have been able to sense of there were some kind of never-never mites feeding on him? This could be some other infestation that's harder to sense, but I feel like it's more like Harry unlocking a new ability.
Maybe it's connected to his pregnancy with Bonnie. He does have practice there making spiritual constructs. Perhaps this is like his postpartum recovery. His spiritual muscles are spasming.
I remember in Storm front he made a tracking spell with his nose and that made him sneeze too. Not the same situation here, but it is a precedent for magical energy moving through your head region making you sneeze.
Maybe with time he'll be able to control it better and create constructs out of ectoplasm.

Dina:
I loved it, Cleo!

g33k:
(click to show/hide) Who's knocking at the door?  I too went with Eb as my default guess, but I kind of think that's too predictable... how about Arthur Langtry?
What if Harry's cold/flu/whatever isn't any "ordinary" Nevernever "infection," but came specifically from standing in the footsteps of a Titan?

Also:  just imagine the potential for ruffled feathers at a high-protocol event like these Peace Talks.  "Something-something-something-else-something," said the Merlin to the Fomor Cantrev-Lord.  What a complete pile of stinking bullcrap, I thoug*KERCHOO!*SPLAT*
