Title: Questions And Answers
Post by: raidem on October 26, 2017, 01:27:28 PM
Do you know where I can find the following woj on Murphy, her job, and powerups?  The actual woj goes something like this:
"Murphy already has a job, and she won't get any more powerups." [my words recalling woj]
Hey Serack, I saw you on Reddit. Do you know where I can find it, and source video, etc.

 Not sure where it is, but as far as I know it has made the rounds for the last five years or so give or take...  Being a Knight of the Cross could be considered a power up I guess, but she rejected that and hasn't had one since.  She doesn't have and hasn't had a formal job in quite some time unless you count working for Marcone...  Justice League is more or less self employment/volunteer and doesn't pay the bills...

I found this, so it aligns with some of what you said particularly the timeline.

If it’s not a spoiler, what’s Murphy doing for a paycheck these days?
Well, if you stop and think about it, I’m sure it will occur to you. Of course, she didn’t talk about it with Dresden.
I believe there are more recent woj's in videos that were also transcribed that includes it.

Peregrine remembers a different woj about Murphy picking up a bigger gun. I too remember it. I want the actual woj and it's source too.
It's not about her job, it's that if she needs more power, she can always find a way to get a bigger gun.
And no, being Mab is not a gun.

 Well, I recall that Murphy is getting a partial pension from being a cop. I don't know where she is getting additional funds. Unless, she is doing bounty-hunter work.

Yeah, that might be the pension he was talking about in 2011.  There were more recent woj's that I'm interested in I think. I'll keep searching.

Oh, and this thread is for everyone to ask questions and get answers not just me.

wait so what is she doing for cash that she hasn't told dresden,

my guess would be getting money from Marcone for something.

 Maybe leading a team of Odin's warriors against supernatural threats to marcones barony.  That seems to fit,  she trains with them constantly, can call them into battle in cold days and it would definitely be awkward describing to Dresden that shes on Marcone's payroll. Might even make her hesitant to go visit Dresden on the island much.
or maybe skip odins guys and shes a troubleshooter but just for supernatural problems

On a side note, who let Raidem eat raw coffee grounds...again; because he is going full throttle. He seems to be riding the wave today!

I'm having to go through tons of posts, threads, woj's trying to find my stupid woj's i'm looking for. 
I found a link where I think i placed them into a Reference Collection Thread, but evidently that thread, it seems, was deleted. Because the link I have is dead.

I did a google search and there are several refences to no more powerups for murphy; but, unfortunately, the mentions are on reddit.

No, she is doing Harry's job of being a supernatural detective. That would be awkward.

Her pension should be enough for her to live on, especially with no mortgage/rent.

There was a job opening for security guard at a bank after the last book, too. She could send Marcone her CV.

I would love to see the conversation between Ms. Demeter and/or Marcone about Murphy wearing the "uniform" at Executive Priority.

Well, since she wouldn't be a "personal trainer;" I would say she gets a business suit, like secret service.
Title: Re: Questions And Answers

Business suit would work, but it may not stop some members from requesting her "help" with their workout.

I am sure that she would give them a "workout:" just not the one they meant.
