Small Favor ... rantlet

[notevendarkyet]

Hmmmm. I've slept for about four hours on the book...

ONE aspect of all that's happened that I disagree with my muse on. ONE. And of course it's expanded on. OF all the places Jim could have taken her... upset that Kincaid is hurt?

On the other hand, I kinda agree with the relationship advice she gives Harry. Just in case someone was wondering.

Ah, and when I was speculating about her getting Shiro's sword, I had good reasons to think it would happen a lot later. She's the right kind of person. But she's far from ready for it yet. That job offer was... untimely.

Oy, and lots of love from my muses to Molly. Michael is going to be all right.

... and oich! Now not only the Fallen but the actual angels have Harry's number. I doubt Jim Butcher will manage to get Harry into as much intensity quite by the next book, it takes a bit of momentum for that, but the stakes went even higher...


and a couple of even more random comments.
- Jared. Anybody else think that is one more of his pop culture references and a nod to Jareth?
- This may only be relevant to me, but I love the even MORE Vorkosigan / Bujold references.

And a question - will the new canon be incorporated in the End of the World storyline, or that will be kept pre-Small Favor break?

*wry* No, Justin's the Jareth like one. "Just fear me, love me, do as I say and I will be your slave"?

I think... I'd have to go back and re-read with special attention to all the parts involving characters we have, but. Maggie can be shuffled out of the way shortly after the first few chapters, with Eb. Elaine doesn't have to enter into it at all. Harry and Thomas survive, albeit worse for the wear. Lara wasn't in it. Mostly it would affect, it seems like, Molly and Murphy, Harry and Thomas. So I'd say you guys need to figure out if you want to integrate it or not.

... do you think "you have no power over me" will work on Justin?

*nods* Molly Murph Harry and Thomas seem to be the ones who show up. WEll, and Mouse and Mister. Hmph. We'll work something out. Somehow.

Heh, I do find it interesting...
Right. I think that one more of the reasons for Harry/Luccio was the fact that everybody seems to be using Susan to tempt him... and he needed to make a statement - to the bad guys! That he's moved on. With somebody who can more or less take care of herself.
Now that makes a little more sense to me than COMPLETELY random stuff.
And on Luccio's part, possibly going for another way to control him.
