Peace Talks chapter 32 :

--- Quote ---   “Oh, lad,” he said, tears in his eyes. “Oh, lad. Didn’t think you were going to come at me again. Didn’t think it would trigger.”  
--- End quote ---
What would trigger? The loaded staff? He misjudged his control once the staff was loaded. He didn't aim at Harry first, but turned and the staff triggered accidentally.


--- Quote ---  This pain, though. This hurt him. This broke him. He bowed his head. His tears fell to the dock. Then he paused. Then his expression changed. He looked up at me. His eyes widened, and then his face twisted into rage and disbelief. “Why, you sneaky—” “Good talk,” I said, “Wizard McCoy.” And I let go of the Winter glamour Lady Molly had crafted for me.
--- End quote ---
I'm not sure what will come next. Is he just pissed at the moment? Will he have had time to cool off? We will know soon.
I think for Eb this is the final revelation that he has to find someone else to take over the Blackstaff. And I don't think he will choose Harry. But who else could he give it to, if he can give it away at all. Maybe the former holder has to die.

Conspiracy Theorist:
Eb has transitioned from “Sir”, to “Wizard McCoy”, Harry doesn’t believe he now needs to show Eb any deference, either as a former Master or as his grandfather. That is twisting the Athame, it indicates a permanent break between the two.

Margaret was being trained as his replacement, she rebelled, Harry wouldn’t accept it other than pass it to Mother Winter, which would get him a favour, just when he needs one for Thomas.

I don't think Harry knows about the Blackstaff being MW's Walking Stick, does he? I don't think that's actually been confirmed in the books (though it seems to be a pretty unavoidable conclusion).

And Harry wouldn't *want* to pick up the Blackstaff, but it would depend on the situation and his other options. He's drawn on other dark sources when it seemed necessary to avoid something worse (using the hexenwolf belt in FM, accepting Lash's help and using "gray" necromancy in DB, becoming Winter Knight, etc.)

Conspiracy Theorist:
Harry won’t kill Warlocks, he won’t accept the Blackstaff.

ClintACK:
Harry would be okay with killing warlocks in battle if they can't be captured. It's executing them he has a problem with. And he's got the solution: Demonreach.
