Anyone Else Surprised or Disappointed That Harry
Dina:
So, I've just reread the scene in PT when Harry first sees Ivy after a long time. I was wrong. He explicitly wonders where Kinkaid is and he tries to catch Ivy's gaze, but with no luck (he says that she did not see him or ignored him, I bet is the latter). So, all makes more sense. Harry is normal, and oblivious of all the pain he brought Ivy and Kinkaid. Ivy is probably avoiding him, probably because she is angry.

I wouldn't call it oblivious to the pain if he doesn't know about it, and who'd have told him? Ivy was in full Archive mode, as such, she would ignore Harry, you will notice she showed no emotion when she was a "lawn mower" against the Fomor when she mowed them down.
Dina:
I agree about Ivy, but that is not explicitly stated in the books. My post was about what I just read in the test. And yes, in BG is textual (literal) that she shows no emotion. But why? Everybody can have an opinion.
And forgive my English, I meant Harry was unaware of the problems his suicide caused between Ivy and Kinkaid. I think he had guessed Ivy did not know about what happened. Still, I said before that Harry is a lousy friend, specially with Ivy. He only needed to write her a not every month or so and things would have been completely different.

Your English is better than mine and English is my first language! Suicides are unaware of the pain they cause others, just their own pain. Harry was isolated from Chicago for a year when Mab would not let him contact anyone, and he was pretty busy the rest of the time, Ivy isn't someone he saw every day, nor Kincaid, so how would he know?

He could guess but he was too busy with himself. It is one of his problems.
