This is supposed to take place many centuries in the future. Languages and spelling change over time. Spanish likely has changed some. I think it a minor issue. JB probably is not fluent in Spanish.

DF Spoilers / Re: True Teleportation

Teleportation may be risky and you could wind up in a wall or the earth even if you got the skill. Let's say a 1 percent failure rate for extremely skilled practitioner and a 20 percent failure rate for some one who can do it but lacks experience. Unless it is an emergency why risk dying?

Also don't the Svartelves say that they don't want to bother punishing the Tool, which is why that twit Listens the hypercompetent mook is still alive after Bombshells?

If Harry explained to them Thomas was being blackmailed then they might've just decided he wasn't the one ultimately responsible and let it drop.
I agree. Molly has good relations with the Svartelves and may have told them about Nemesis. Harry also did some serious smacking on the Fomor and is pretty scary.

DF Spoilers / Re: Mab's word play about the White Court

Mab also might want to punish Lara for taking some of the minor Fae captive in the past. Harry liberated them later. Don't know if she feels obligated toward them. Remember Mab had Harry really screw over over Nick / Andriel while paying back a favor. Molly loves Harry and does not want him to be married to a WCV who will want to warp his mind and feed on him. It could also give Harry more protection with Lara backing him up as stated by others. I think Lara respects, likes, desires and fears Harry. Mab seems very fond of Harry and protective. I think she needs a starborn wizard WK in the upcoming war with the Outsiders. Mab might also want to help Lara against the next threat that the Outsiders manipulate to weaken factions that can oppose them.

I doubt Cowl after the Darkhollow would be in Ethniu's weight class. Cowl is undoubtedly smarter and might win due to Ethniu being stupid. Ethniu also was stronger than normal due to the magic armor, the eye and the extra magic available due to the fear by the people of Chicago boosting her power. Just as Mab is a lot more powerful than the Erlking. As a human matador can bring down a bull in a bullfight. Cowl might be able to defeat Ethniu. Harry was able to do that with help. Cowl might in Mab's weight class though. I think it would be how big the Darkhollow was and how much Cowl was able to take in.

Mab definitely knows. Harry actually surprised her with the info at the end of Battleground at the meeting. He called Marcone,  Sir Baron. Mab's eyebrow went way up in surprise and understanding.

Mab wants Harry to be more compliant with Mab not having a second boss, Lara. I think part of Mab likes that Harry is a bit defiant.

I don't see the WC attempting to kill Harry unless he does something major to piss them off. I think they kicked him off the WC was to neutralize his growing influence/power on the WC. They see him as useful against common enemies. He has defeated many common enemies. He is still feared and that he could go to the dark side. He is considered a loose cannon.

DF Spoilers / Re: What should happen to Rudolph?

Harry could arrange a horrible fate for Rudolph without touching him. For example let Rudolph chase after Harry to arrest him. Harry opens a way to the Nevernever, Rudolph follows. Harry then eludes Rudolph and departs, and lets Rudolph deal with goblins, trolls, for example.

In universe, it is not ok to kill Rudolph. But as readers of a fiction work, we can suggest things that happen in tbe books that we wouldn't advocate IRL. For instance, killing Rudolph with extreme prejudice.
In universe, it shouldn't happen, for several reasons, one of those is Rudolph did not want to kill Karrin, it was an accident (or divine intervention).
But we are allowed to hate a character.  I see it a little like many years ago when a lot of Star Trek fans wanted to will Wesley Crusher

I never liked Westly. I just wanted him to go away. He eventually did by going to Starfleet Academy and making some poor choices. Rudolph, I would like to see him pay for all the bad he has done.

What's weird about him is that he appears to think the supernatural is totally fake, to the point of total denial even when it's right in front of him, but was working for the Eebs.  So there may be more to it like his mind has been destroyed by having his mind invaded. 

On one hand you want to see him suffer badly for what he did.  On the other hand, he genuinely thought that Murphy and Dresden were doing crazy stuff.  he couldn't accept what was happening, and basically was detached from reality.  He wasn't trying to do something bad, he was just totally losing his shit.

So I really don't know what I want to see happen lol.
  I think Murphys  family will find out what Rudolph did. They are cops. She has police friends who are cops. I think Rudolph will have bad things happen to him if he is not charged and convicted of killing Murphy.

Unless Leah played Mab.....  Think about it..  Who could possibly replace Mab if Molly isn't ready?  Leah....  She's #2 to Mab in power level.  She's the next option behind Molly.
I don't think Lea is a virgin. I think you have to be a virgin to be a lady.

DF Spoilers / Re: Why Ethniu was so powerful in BG
« on: March 03, 2021, 05:03:26 PM »
Ok obviously as a Titan, Ethniu wields a lot of power.  An incredible amount of power.  Still I belive there is another reason she was able to take on Titania, Odin, and Erlking at the same time.  A reason she could compell Ferovax, the most powerful Dragon, and celestial Being.

Ferro stated that his true form would crush houses, and warp reality.  So to be in the mortal world he has to leave a lot of his power at the door so to speak.  It's the same reason why I think Mother Winter needs her walking stick.  It allows her to be on Earth without destroying reality. 

I suspect that the Titan armor made by the hundred handers acts much like Mother Winters walking stick.  It allowed Ethniu to bring much more, or maybe all over her power onto Earth without destroying reality.  It meant she could hit with everything she had while the ones she was fighting could not use all their power.
 
She feeds on fear. She got a lot of beings afraid and most of Chicago. Remember Harry was able to do more due to so much magic being around during the battle. She got pumped up I think partially due to that and gaining power from terrified mortals. She is very powerful to begin with.

DF Spoilers / Re: Put On Your Tin Foil Hats, New Rudolph Theory
« on: February 21, 2021, 12:09:46 AM »
I think someone did some mind bending to Rudolf years ago to make him against Harry and Murphy. It could have been a White or Red Court Vamp or someone else. Perhaps also to deny supernatural things. It makes no sense for example for him to think Murphy is committing murder with the rocket launcher against the giant. It was like he saw her killing a normal person and not a monster.

It makes no sense for Marcone to have Rudolph harass Harry or Murphy. I think it is the Fomor or one of their allies. It may be the WC Vamps. A rival faction of Lara's. Rudolph may be mind wammied by a WC vamp like the female lawyer was earlier.
