The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Anyone else... disappointed? [PT/BG spoilers]

--- Quote ---Also, Harry could live somewhere isolated and work in the city. He'd just have to have a quick/reliable way of traveling to the city.

I totally agree. I watched a map and really he could totally find place somewhere in Illinois/Wisconsin province and have access to whole Chicago-Milwaukee metropolitan areas for job.
--- Quote ---I totally agree, so I came up with a head canon mechanism that fixes that problem. Every alternate universe creating choice creates multiple universes because in the moment of decision, the person makes multiple choices that are all against that person's nature. So Harry's "natural" decision in GP was to do X. But the Harry we've followed did Y. The Harry(s) we haven't followed did not X and not Y.

But why we assume Mirror!Harry is natural Harry, and our Harry splited history by acting against himself?
Or should we assume each decision creates sort of fake universes that are copies of original one - with fake starting decisions or something?
Or do you mean all decisions were against nature - and all Dresdens are fake or smth? But then why not NATURAL decision?
--- Quote ---Jim's big on physical descriptions. I remember someone going over descriptions of Michael, Sanya, and Bradley. It was kind of similar to how Jim describes all the super attractive women. Thomas's shirtless descriptions are a lot like that too. And as Dina said, it's not just people. Mac's place, Harry's apartment, and the Beetle. At least Harry's apartment and the Beetle change frequently enough.

Yeah, how many times can one listen to Dresden mentions about Butters height dammit.
Arjan:
From what we know of Dresden multiverse you can split of a new universe by making an important free willed choice. There will be universes were you made a different choice.
The mirror universe is about Harry kaping a bad choice at the end of grave peril and ending up evil.

Yes. That's exactly my problem - it's cheapening the free will.

Or it is making it more important if your purpose is to create as many universes as you can. Promoting free will becomes suspicious. Uriel!

It makes free will important for Creator and protection of Multiverse against OUTSIDE - so Creation grows even when external forces chews on it - but it cheapens importance of choice - because always all choices are made and then consequences separated in separated universes.
Of course subjective passenger Dresden is feels only one - and it matter to him and us in his head, but from external non-subjective point of view - all possible Dresdens exists.
Now the question is whether in finale our Harry will have to gather team of Vampire Harry, Hexenwulf Harry, Denarian Harry and Knight of the Cross Harry to fight against Outsiders multiverse invasion - or maybe he will have to kill all other Harry's like Jet Li to become supreme Harry Dresden - sum of all possible Dresdens - with certain knowledge of all possible outcomes of being Dresden.
