I thought it was pretty clear that the Svartelves were mad because:

A) they found the implication that their own security measures were insufficient to be insulting and

B) Dresden's security measures were preventing them from grabbing Maggie as a hostage while they determined whether or not Harry was involved in the Assassination attempt to save her from the fire, and the inconvenience of this disgruntled them.

I think it's to do with the fact that Thomas thought Lara has gotten "real scary" in the last couple of years.

So even if she's big sis, she's becoming that big of a problem/threat.

She could be a great great gran something or other... Wow, if that were true can you imagine Harry's reaction?

Probably dry retching, all things considered.

Maybe Bob did, but didn’t say anything because he wasn’t asked.

Bob: "C'mon Harry, how could you not notice you were Pregnant?" (Yes I know that there are cases of that happening irl)

Maybe the smell was unrelated and Rudolph had made a mess...

I mean on the one hand we have a WoJ saying that Harry mostly got out from under that the first time he died, on the other hand iirc we have a different WoJ saying he's still suffering because of the effects of the curse.

Personally I think that if Snake boy didn't have the Juice to kill Dresden in the Museum, it makes little sense that he'd have enough juice to Ice everyone Harry gets close to years later, but who can say.

Yeah, it's an old school noble wedding.  Either don't forget to invite Maleficent or else burn all the spinning wheels.

Not to worry, the closest equivalent to Maleficent is the one ordering the ceremony, pretty sure she's automatically invited.

You have to remember that to the average Joe Wizard, Harry Dresden is a nightmare.

Indisputable Facts

• Harry is the son of an expelled wizard that had a death sentence with the Council and was known to hang out with monsters.
• Harry was adopted by a Warden in good standing with the Council, a war hero no less that helped bring down Kemmler, but Harry killed him with magic in unknown circumstances.
• Harry openly flaunted tradition by practicing openly.
• Harry started a war that could have been avoided, which got a lot of wizards killed.
• Harry committed genocide against a supernatural nation that was actively pursuing peace.
• Harry abandoned his duties after committing genocide, leaving his Council-sworn duty of protecting Chicago to a rogue apprentice wanted for murder.
• Harry became the Winter Knight, the murderous assassin for the evil Sidhe Court.
• Harry is a close associate and suspected lover of White Court royalty.
• Harry performed necromantic magic and was not punished.

• Harry's apprentice performed mind magic and was not punished.
• Harry worked with Nicodemus Archleon.
• Harry worked with Mab numerous times before becoming her assassin.
• Harry killed a Summer Lady.

It's no wonder he lost the popular vote, and you don't even have to bring speculation into it.

I mean I'd dispute the claim that the Red Court was 'actively pursuing peace' given the fact that they released a bio-weapon attack on the White Council's headquarters less than 24 hours before, but the rest is true.
