[BG spoilers!!] Minor thing about the Blackstaff
« on: October 05, 2020, 10:27:57 PM »
I liked how angry was Ethniu at Eb for wearing the blackstaff (we know it's Mother Winter cane, but I don't think Harry knows that)

There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be. Someone has stolen a book (Terry Pratchett)

He might begin to guess after observing the shadow in BT.

Bath Time

It's a recently released short story, detailing Mister's thwarting of the big monkey(how Mister refers to Harry)'s attempts to dunk him under the soapy smelly water. Oh, and for some reason Eb goes all Black Staff during the tale. Supposedly, even more nuts than what we got in Battle Ground. Haven't read it myself, though...

Oh...it was a comic-strip right? Thank you. I've read it and...forgot all about it. Thank you!!!

Edited: Nope, I've read one called "Everything the light touches", not Eb involved, so I had not heard about BT.

Yeah, that tends to happen. I wish Jim would stop messing with the timeline. I tell you, remembering which stories exist in the here and now(and more importantly which don't ;)) gets exhausting when the list changes every couple days.

(Yeah, Everything the Light Touches was fun.)

Everything the light touches is sweet and nothing relevant happens. I couldn't find a reference to BT in the JB site.

Bath Time doesn't exist. It was a joke. (thus the comment about stories not existing with a winky face)

:D

Your welcome. Sorry for derailing your thread.

As far as your original topic goes: I think we've reached a point where Harry is almost about to realize what the Black Staff is. But, not quite there. Given his lack of talent when it comes to asking the "big" questions, he might even need to be told... again :( .

I would not be surprised but be lenient with him. After all, he has not access to a forum where hundreds of people discuss every detail of his life  :). He has to figure it all, all by himself.

I like that he basically turned into the wicked witch. It seems to support the baba yaga mask theory.
