Mac is also official neutral territory. That does not matter for the outsiders but it has some meaning for most other powers.

Enenezer doesn’t know. Every time someone tries to explain him something about the white court he explodes and starts throwing fireballs.

« on: October 05, 2020, 07:04:04 PM »I'm not sure if that's accurate. I seem to recall Luccio make a comment to Lara about the White King obviously still being in charge...She obviously knows but she is a wizard....

« on: October 05, 2020, 05:57:35 PM »Heh. I don't actually want Harry to get out of it. Because the insane number of shenanigans that could spring up for Harry Dresden, Winter Knight, Wizard of Chicago, and Husband of the White Queen (because honestly, at this point, it's an open secret that she's in charge and not her dad) due to the marriage are too glorious to imagine.The only ones who do not know are in the white council

« on: October 05, 2020, 03:34:37 PM »I still wonder if Mab engineered it.No. But Uriel and Vadderung saw it coming and made a deal because Uriel had a claim too. But looking back she made some choices in Vadderung direction.

Though maybe Mab owns a company like this. https://www.instantmarriagela.com/
That is only a civil ceremony so not strictly speaking a Christian wedding.

Part of it is that it was so unexpected. I know a lot of people expected her to die but at that moment it was quiet and the giant was just killed. No enemy around and everyone underestimated how dangerous a police officer with bad trigger discipline was.

« on: October 05, 2020, 01:20:42 PM »tell me something I don't know? The Sidhe are not pagan... They're Celtic iirc. customs and rules WILL be upheld, so says the Mab.Sure but who's customs and rules? Harry and Lara are not christian either.
And doing everything immediately is not exactly according to rules and customs either. Expect a few surprises about the exact nature of this wedding.

« on: October 05, 2020, 01:18:36 PM »I would add to that list two more things.Impossible to say but I think Bob is borrowed.
1] Is Bob back with Harry now? I know Butters handed him off during the battle, but if he scanned the castle as well that would imply that he is.
Quote
The same way she gets all those other illigal weapons. She probably has the number of Kincaids arms dealer. We know Harry has.
2] Why is it that Murphy had a hold of a rocket launcher and Marcone's men didn't?
Quote
Actually it was smart, it was all about sending a public warning to Marcone. Marcone always was dangerous, but now with a coin and wizard powers you can multiply that many,many times. Dominance is the only thing gentleman Marcone understands. By not revealing that he has the Eye, when everyone else is pretty sure he does, keeps them guessing and also gives Harry some ability to protect Chicago. It was really the only peaceful way he could contain Marcone/Namshiel.

« on: October 05, 2020, 11:49:59 AM »Please, Lara knew exactly what she was asking for:Yes but it still surprised her how fast and without a proper negotiation of the wedding contract. Who knows what kind of contract Mab thinks is normal and right.
Taking that, Freydis telling Harry outright that 'dude, Lara's totally into you', Molly being super frosty with Lara when she arrives in Battle Ground... yeah, I feel like she knew what was going on.
She just expected Mab to give her some more time to swing Harry around on it, instead of going "I'm Mab and I declare you two shall be wed"
you /assume/ it won't be a christian wedding. And mab pays lip service anyway. Hell being a supernatural she might not want to infringe on something that's specifically a religious ceremony. I'd quite imagine one mask of a supernatural being or another has that aspect as their own. That'd make it their domain, like Hera for instance, Goddess of marriage... Poor lass... Married to the God of adultery lolBut the Sidhe are basically pagans and Harry is sworn to her. I think she won’t give anyone the opportunity to object. Marriage is older than Christianity and can take a lot of forms.
Maybe the let him do it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hymen_(god)
He is currently busy with his wrestling career so you now know the plot of Harry’s next book.

« on: October 05, 2020, 10:55:44 AM »I wag, when the priest says if anyone has any objections speak now, Molly is going to stand up and before she can utter a word the Archive is going to blow the door in lol. The only real shame is this will probably have to wait til after MM to find out.You assume a Christian wedding. Mab is not a Christian. Your individual wishes don’t count, only those of your families, courts etc.
@icecream I shudder to think of what will happen to the child if Nemesis raises it. The story doesn't go far enough for them to grow up... But *gulp* long enough for them to be sacrificed...
Though in this case Lara discovered that you have to be very careful with your favors.
