Hm... apology to me is admitting of a wrongdoing, accepting the responsibility and making reparations.

That is why I only apologize if I actually did something wrong. Jonas misreading my post and instead of trying to debate it out just blocked me... well, I see no action of mine that was wrong. I even used a fairly mild language in the post he was reacting to.

If an apology is just words, then it has no meaning. I am aware that the current society thinks lightly of such things, but I do not.

Oh, there are many that have plenty; but, the more you add the less interesting the story.

You've got that right. I mean, if I want to read about bed scenes, I'll go and buy some harlequin books...

I think we all need to remember this is a polite and fun forum that allows all theories and speculation. Light-hearted snarkiness is great; but, texts that feel like personal attacks are nobody's friend. We shouldn't have to block people or throw pity parties. If something is said that cause anger then ignore it and move onto another thread; we have plenty that can be discussed. I am not a moderator or any kind of an authority figure; just a member wanting to discuss my favorite topic (me) and Butcher's work. Thank you.

That part with me throwing a pity party was just me being sarcastic

And I didn't mean to attack anyone and as far as I'm aware, I'm not formulating my posts like that. I simply enjoy a joke or some banter every once in a while. I would apologize, but in this case offense was taken, not given.

Wait, wait, wait... She's supposed to be the new Bob, only not so... lascivious. Hm... nevermind.

There is always hope it's what I keep telling to myself whenever I get turned down by a woman

Hm... I'm afraid I'm a bit more cynical than Dresden. But he's likable, for such a lippy bugger.

SInce you can't seem to make comments refuting others without adding in biting retorts, i'm going to block you now, thanks guy. I mean hell, I think it's silly to refute someones theory or idea without seeing the base points of why they have it, but that's just me.

Wow, someone reading Dresden Files doesn't like sarcasm in a discussion. Ah well. I think I'm going to throw a pity party that you blocked me

And I'm fairly certain that I wasn't refuting your theory. I was presenting my thoughts on said theory. And I said that I didn't like it, because it basically flattens the whole story. I like Dresden Files because it has it's complexity.

I'm guessing that it's not the whole Black Court. I'm guessing, that Mavra wanted the Word of Kemmler to protect her and hers from Outsiders.

As Mother Summer said:

“Winter and Summer are two opposing forces of our world,” she said. “But we are of our world. Here, that is all that matters. And showing respect to one’s elders is never unwise.”

I'm guessing that that's why we read fairy tales to at least read about the magic that is not happening as much in our lives. That and asskickings of epic properties
