If you think being under the eye of a deity of Luck means nothing but good luck, then Wizzard Rincewind would like a word with you.

Well, Odin himself said that powerful beings had taken notice of Harry's existance after his return from the dead.

lol Him surviving things he should not have survived, and defeated things he should not have defeated?  Seems pretty lucky to me!  Harry has had plenty of chances to get with beautiful women, he made decisions that kept him from those women.  He could have been rich by working for Marcone, he chose not to do that.  Luck has been there, Harry has chosen not to go after those materialistic or lustful things.
He's an idiot. -.- I actually banged my head on the wall, several times, and NOT gently when he turned down Jenny AND Maeve..
Hell, just say yes, and wear a freaking condom. Would be nice to sucker punch the faeries on their own word play. Among other things.

Well we did find out what would have happened if he'd had sex with Maeve.....  Jenny on the other hand should have been fun! lol
Stole this from Reginald because it was so well put, and is true for me as well.

Maeve was probably nemfected by then and free to do whatever she wants.
Still, he could've had sex with Maeve, just not intercourse. Plenty of ways to get creative there :D

OK, actually getting one of them pregnant is really not the only thing wrong with the scenario.

It's a way for them to get him into a deal, first and foremost. You know the saying, "Don't stick it in crazy"? Well, that goes triple for Fae. A few minutes' pleasure is not worth the hell they'll make your life once they get their hooks into you.

Winter seals deals with kisses and sex. Just putting on a condom would've done nothing to stop them from using the deal with Harry in all kinds of ways.

Odin found a way to have his cake, and eat it to.....  Dresden needs to get his advice lol.

an enquiry on that though... what if it had been as part of a deal like that, would the lady's mantle allow itself to be unbalanced by debt from a different mechanism in the mantle? It would be pitting it's own instincts against it's design.

After Cold Case, we know what a bad idea it would have been for Harry to indulge with Maeve, but what makes you think that he would have survived tumbling with Jenny either... wasn't she most like the sirens that take their lovers beneath the water and drown them as part of the festivities? 

as for the OP, I agree with peregrine, many of these Deities and deities are watching Harry, even Hades, but like Uriel, they are just setting the opportunities in place for Harry to take advantage of, it's still up to him to make the right decisions.  Well, so much for that idea...lol

Uriel, at least, doesn't interfere directly with Harry because he can't.

Well, except for that one time that Lasciel cheated in Ghost Story. And that one time that Michael volunteered to help Harry in Skin Game.

It probably comes down to the fact that those who have greater power have greater limitations on how and when they can use that power. (e.g. Don't interfere with the free will of vanilla mortals.)

That does not mean he can not influence things. He clearly does otherwise Mab wouldn’t have liked his style.

Of course he can interfere indirectly (i.e. influence things), and he takes advantage of every opportunity he gets to do so.

My point is that Uriel couldn't have taken such an active role in Harry's life without TWG's approval, so clearly TWG is watching over Harry too.
