DF Spoilers / Re: Christmas Eve from JB's Twitter (no news, just fun)

Hm, well I'm terrible at math, but I think it's safe to say all the diamonds are top notch, illegality not withstanding. But yeah, the supernatural folks would have something set up. Maybe Harry will go to Molly instead of Marcone, or he'll be able to find someone else?
Yeah, I can't remember that first chapter well either. I imagine the basic outline is the same.
By the way, am I the only person who isn't wild about the supernatural school idea? Feels a little too Harry Potter to me. I dunno this concept just came outta nowhere for this series.

Oh, I don't mind the waiting that much, really, but I just get excited and build up scenarios for how things happen. It's a bit rare for me to get disappointed due to over-hype.
When we got the basic plot outline for Mirror Mirror, I was intrigued because diverging timelines and alternate realities can be so fun to explore.
I'm just glad he's got a less hectic time now, gotta be less stress for him. :)

Yeah, Murphy might not get a whole lot of page time. I remember doing a little research for a torn ACL, but I don't remember how severe it was in her case. So she'd be pre-occupied with her physical therapy but I bet she could afford a good surgery for it. She could be an out-patient. Though, I bet she'd still want Harry to keep her in the loop even if she can't do anything active.
Nope, it was Murphy's funeral. Pretty sure there was a mwahahaha in there too, lol.
That's a good catch, a definite possibility to me.

Hm, I think there might have been some line that Harry was staying at Molly's new place in Peace Talks. Since this takes place a little bit later, he might still be living there, unless things get so crazy he has to move again. Plus, the Carpenters do view him as family, so it makes sense to me. :)
As for Murphy, I bet she's spending Christmas with her own family. For all we know, Harry got to spend some time with her beforehand.

I think there is, kinda. I can't remember where, but I know I saw a WOJ about Mab that spoke about her power levels, so I think that could help somewhat.
I think it's been said Ivy is on par with the Fae ladies(Small Favor I think). Hm, Odin is tricksy because he's got multiple mantles but he should be on par with Mab. OG Merlin...hm, that's tough, I'd say he's in the top ten at least. As for Mouse, I think there's another WOJ that states that he was like The Thing when he was living with Harry, but when he started living with the Carpenters and got a power boost, so that he became like The Hulk. Not sure how helpful  that comparison is, but Archangel Uriel called Mouse "cousin", so I'd say he's a tough costumer.

Yeah, I think we might be just a tad. Hm, I don't think it'll be a stand alone, since we're getting into the sorta home stretch. Pretty sure the things we find out in Mirror Mirror will serve as info that Harry couldn't otherwise get in "his" prime universe. Peace Talks will have some set up for future events and some payoffs too, I think.

Do you think you'll be excited for Mirror Mirror when Peace Talks comes out, or are we just over-hyping ourselves?

True, I just felt like I had to get this off my chest. I need a new Dresden book, like, yesterday.

DF Spoilers / Mirror Mirror Mania

Hey everyone, figured I'd post instead of lurk, and I hope everyone's holidays are going well. While I want PT but MM is totally on my mind, and I think I just need to blah blah about it for a bit. Some of this might sounds familiar, but who knows-
So, I figured Mirror!Harry isn't gonna be a mustache-twirler. It just feels like this Mirror-verse shouldn't be totally awful, there should be some goodness in there to balance it out, and to prevent 'Darkness Induced Audience Apathy'. I heard about the divergence point in Grave Peril being near the end and the importance of the "I love you" line and that changes everything. My guess is is that instead of saying "I love you", it'll be "Take me instead". Because IIRC, Justine was in that scene with Harry and Susan. I'm not sure if I've seen this theory anywhere else, but I think that Susan will infect Harry with rampire-ness. That would make the dominoes fall in a completely different direction. Not sure how he'd survive if the first feeding is supposed to be fatal, but maybe his ghost-shenanigans had something to do with that. It could even effect his magic after he becomes infected. I don't want Mirror!Justine to be fridge'd.
Hm, I can see a few separate paths for Harry to take. Now, I'm not sure if the war would still be on, but Harry's relationship with the council would be different, maybe even to the point of breaking ties with. Which would put Eb in a tight spot and he'd still want to support Harry. Eb could introduce Harry to Simon Petrovitch, who was a stated vampire expert, to help Harry out. For those who think Simon is Cowl, this would be a great place for Harry to learn this. I keep picturing Harry in Russia. Course, that is pretty out there.
With the other characters, it's a bit easier to see where they could go. Guess I'll talk about Molly first. It'd be great if her life was more positive without Harry in it, ironically enough. I do like the idea of Warden Molly and I can't remember who posted it, but they thought that Morgan as Molly's mentor would make them an interesting pair of antagonists. It could work if Morgan met the Carpenter family through Harry, and Morgan would be the one to take an interest in Molly when she shows her wizard powers. This means Molly would never end up a warlock. This could be because Charity would never let an infected Harry in her house even as Michael would be doing his best to support Harry. Michael would try to set Harry up with the Fellowship of St. Giles via Father Forthill. I'm thinking another way to show that this could be different is with Michael's death. Not sure how it comes about, but should be different from the books.
So how Prime!Harry had a negative impact on Molly, he had a positive one for Thomas, but for Mirror!Harry it's the opposite. For the Mirror ones, Harry probably doesn't know that they are siblings, since Mirror!Thomas hasn't told Mirror!Harry due to how much Mirror!Harry hates vampires. A cool thing would be for Thomas to be the White King, he'd pick it so that he could protect an Inari who couldn't escape in time and becomes a full vampire. Not sure how Lara works into this, but this Thomas would be more confidant in himself and willing to play politics. Due to Harry not being emotionally available during SK, Murphy is in a rougher place, and won't get the chance to trust Harry. And we'll get to see a new side of Marcone, possibly because Mirror!Marcone and Mirror!Harry work together to keep Chicago running. It could be due to Harry finding a way to bring 'Persephone' out of her coma and this is what brings them to an agreement. This is another reason Mirror!Murphy doesn't trust Mirror!Harry. Mirror!Butters could still have a relationship with Mirror!Harry, but I like this idea of Butters being a bit of a mad scientist who learns about the supernatural through Harry.
As for eye patches, I don't think Harry will have one, but I think it'd be cool if it were Elaine instead. The plot of SK would still happen despite Harry not being there, so it's mostly Elaine as the hero of the day, and that she gets further entangled in the fae. It'd be fun if she were the new summer knight. I'm not sold on Harry being a baddie, but rather someone who had to become more pragmatic sooner. More comfortable in his skin. He's gotta be someone that Prime!Harry could see as having valid points and to see new/enhanced sides of himself so he can have some self reflection. So yeah, the two Harry's are gonna meet and talk. Hm, so I think that is the gist. Thoughts?
