The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Molly Sending a Hidden Message?
LostInTime:
So, I was considering Molly's entrance in Battle Ground. She leads her Army of Children into battle with her One Woman Rave blasting Guns N Roses' Welcome to the Jungle. The song came on the radio during my commute to work this morning.
It's the first time I've paid attention to the song in a Dresden Files context. Plus, we've seen several examples of how her mantle forces her to behave in a very un-Molly way.
I think it's not only possible, but also very likely, that she may have picked that particular song not only as a battle anthem, but also as a way to avoid fae restrictions and sneak a message to Harry, directly in front of Mab.
I don't want to argue my point before you read the lyrics yourself. I want fresh eyes to see what I saw.
I think there's a lot going on there that's going to reveal a whole bunch about the fae courts.
Mira:
Can you print out the lyrics?
LostInTime:
Welcome to the jungle, we got fun and games
We got everything you want, honey, we know the names (What possible fae names has Harry missed? THE MOTHERS)
We are the people that can find whatever you may need
If you got the money, honey, we got your disease
It's a jungle, welcome to the jungle
Watch it bring it to your n-n-n-n-n-n-n-n knees, knees
Oh ah, I wanna see you bleed
Welcome to the jungle, we take it day by day
If you want you're gonna bleed but it's the price to pay
And you're a very sexy girl, and very hard to please
You can taste the bright lights but you won't get there for free (Sounds a bit like Molly here)
In the jungle welcome to the jungle
Feel my, my, my serpentine (Yeah, I know what Axl is singing about, but what was Molly's significant tattoo?)
I wanna, I wanna hear you scream
And when you're high, you never, never wanna come down
Down, down, down, down, yeah heh heh heh heh yeah
Welcome to the jungle, it gets worse here every day
You learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play (Could be a reference to Winter or of Molly afraid of losing herself in Winter)
If you got hunger for what you see, you'll take it eventually (A warning for Harry? The first interaction he had with Winter was bargaining for power with Lea)
You can have everything you want but you better not take it from me...
Mira:
Thank you for that, have to reread the chapter before I can comment.
LostInTime:
Welcome to the jungle, it gets worse here every day
You learn to live like an animal in the jungle where we play
On second consideration, this sounds like Molly telling Harry what it's like living inside the Winter Court.
