  In Lea's case what remained of her sanity due to the infection knew she couldn't be trusted.  It is a creepy scene because at first Harry didn't believe her, then crazy infected Lea appeared and begged him to release her.

The unnamed prisoner says that "He belongs to be here" (paraphrasing). I wonder if Thomas will adopt this same attitude after talking with him or once he gets off the Island that he will feel that he belongs back in prison.

He might, he was troubled before, that is why when he went to live with Harry he starved himself because he knows on some level it is wrong to feed on other people.  Then he found some peace in nibbling on people, bringing them pleasure while feeding his needs.  Then after the Skinwalker got done with him, he once again saw humans as kine.  Not saying that he fed until death more people since Turn Coat, but he now he has to face the harm that he has done.  If he cannot rid himself of his Hunger Demon, he may also come to believe that he belongs where he is at.

Father Forthill is another vanilla mortal, no powers no special status but he is so good at being mortal it almost hurts, he is the vanilla ice cream milkshake of mortals.

I agree that Father Forthill is good, so good that he might be strawberry..  ;)

Listen is of course Phish Food after failing to kill the Carpenters.

 No, since he failed, he is more fertilizer than ice cream at this point.. ::)

By any measure outside of fiction time travel is impossible because it violates causality. Which means that cause and effect gets broken. The only way to get around it is to cheat or just flat out ignore it. Butcher is trying to cheat in my opinion.

He creates a character that has been around since the White God said let there be light. Then he puts restrictions on what those characters can do.  He then creates a new character that is no longer bound by those restrictions. That's the cheat. It may not be his intent but it's what he wrote.

Only if the prisoner is Harry, which I doubt.

It's like Schrödinger's Cat.  Until you look into the box you don't know. The idea comes from Vadderung's dialog in Cold Days when in an exchange where Harry asks if he can do it, ie save the island, Vadderung responds that perhaps he already has. This prose would normally indicate that the protagonist had done this before.

Or it hints that at some point Harry was Merlin.. Or Vadderung already knew about what Harry could do if he wanted with the jewel he inherited from his mother.  It also fits with Harry's feeling that he had been on the island before in Small Favor.  Only problem with your theory that the "British Prisoner" is Harry that I can see is I think there are "rules" about about that cannot be gotten around, or bad things happen.

A freaking square 5 gallon tub of vanilla.

Bradley was definitely set up to be the new competent Vanilla mortal now that Marcone had gone all mint chocolate chip and Hendricks and Murphy went honey mead.

No, Marcone has gone pistachio/almond on us...

I gave my answer in my first post on this subject. I think it's Harry. Butcher says not. It's his book.

Then it is Merlin..

Carlos was massively impressed with Harry’s Zombie Dinosaur.
Well then Bradly must be plain old vanilla..

Then I stand corrected, say instead,If you ran across this in SF the prisoner would be a sleeper in suspended animation or in an area where time is suspended.

Which makes him unique from the others, the question is why is he unique?

Bradley,

Well a little tuttie futtie is a great change of pace!  Fowler is diffidently durian... What's odd is even though durian fruit smells like toe fungus, if you go to an Asian market you will not only find the fruit, but several candies flavored with it and chips as well.. So maybe it shouldn't be judged on it's smell?
Which would be very Fowler.. ::)

In and of itself you are correct, however dark gods and monsters don't need sleep.

I'm not so sure of that..

What seems obvious to me is that all mortals are now off the playing field. Hendricks is gone. Murphy is gone. Justine is the face of Nemesis. The Cops are now the Men in Black, Chicago PD is now a farm team. Bring the Supernatural or go home seems to be the new mantra.

Not quite, Harry is still here, Butters, Sanya, Michael, Rashid, Listens to Wind, Rivershoulders, the ladies and gentlemen of the Paranet, and I'm sure some other mortals will pop out of the woodwork..
