The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
More foreshadowing?
LostInTime:
--- Quote ---1] Molly looking as though she were strung out on hard drugs with a "fey light" in her eyes.
2] Smiling, happy, older, a little plump surrounded by children..
3] Wearing a grey Warden's cloak, her face scared by battles yet to be fought.
4] Basically a happy young woman, but perhaps a bit more secure..
5] At a desk working...
6] The last one looked like Molly, but wasn't, but someone all together evil;

My crazy headcannon is that these are all future version of Molly that we have or will see.
1) Molly the Ragged Lady
2) Molly after Harry has destroyed the Fae Courts and freed her from the fae mantle.
3) Warden Molly in Mirror Mirror
4) We've already seen this one. It was Molly as Harry's apprentice.
5) When Harry summons Molly in PT, she's in business attire.
6) Queen Molly in vengeance mode.

1] Winter Lady Molly
2] Molly that set aside magic
3] Warden Molly
4] ? ? ?
5] ? ? ?
6] Denarian Molly

Warlock Molly. If it is about possibilities one of them must be that.

pretty much mine too. I think that these, plus the seventh current timeline make up the main portion of the TT shenanigans.
Griffyn612:
--- Quote --- One was an emaciated version of Molly, as
though she’d been starved or strung out on hard
drugs, her eyes aglow with an unpleasant, fey light.
One was her smiling and laughing, older and
comfortably heavier, children surrounding her. A
third faced me in a grey Warden’s cloak, though a
burn scar, almost a brand, marred the roundness
of her left cheek. Still another reflection was Molly
as she appeared now, though more secure, l
laughter dancing in her eyes. Another reflection
showed her at a desk, working. But the last…
The last reflection of Molly wasn’t the girl. Oh, it
looked like Molly, externally. But the eyes gave it
away. They were flat as a reptile’s, empty. She wore
all black, including a black collar, and her hair had
been dyed to match. Though she looked like Molly,
like a human being, she was neither. She had
become something else entirely, something very,
very bad.

I think it's like the book said. Possibilities. Not necessarily actual branch realities or all things from the prime reality.
I think option one was if didn't get tutored by Harry, and ended up a junkie on the streets with a modest power.
I think option two was her giving up her power line her mom did, and being a vanilla mortal.
I think option three was her getting tutored by someone other than Harry. Luccio or Morgan perhaps.
I agree that option four is the road taken, tutoring under Harry.
Option five is the most nebulous. This could be her walking away from all of it and going to school. Not giving up her power, but not being trained, not getting drawn in, just her doing her thing on her own.
Option six is either her going full dark side, either via black magic, outsider corruption, or maybe even Black Court.

I think option 1 is just what it appears to be, foreshadowing the events of Ghost Story. And the last the results had Harry not intervened.
Most of the other options have been foreclosed on. Molly can never be a Warden now. That ceased when Harry committed suicide. And unless Molly can get free of the mantle children aren't in the picture, or at least children in that context.
I would like to think that one of them was Molly after the events of the Dresden Files but personally I don't think her story has a happy ending. I seem to remember a WOJ on this. It's interesting to think that one of the possible options at the time of PG was Molly becoming the Lady.
