Summer Court's NN

[wardenferry419]

Have we ever seen any of Titania's areas of the NeverNever?

[Rasins]

Not that I'm aware of.  The closest I think we've seen was in Summer Kinght, Aurora's court.

I hope we get a look at Summer's domain. I would love to see how it contrasts to Winter (beyond the obvious hot/cold aspect).

[wardenferry419]

I expect something like Lea's garden linked to Harry's apartment or a rain forest.

[Talby16]

I really think that Winter gets a bad rap for being cruel, mean, evil. Summer is also about survival of the fittest (IMO) and the dominance of the strong, just in a brighter, sunshiney way. I would like Harry to visit the Summer portion of the NN and first see the beauty and life of it, but realize there is an undercurrent of menace.

[Rasins]

And don't forget what Harry was told about the rampant growth that Summer aids.  If it's not checked Other things can grow too, like Ebola and the like.

[Talby16]

Its honestly one of the more frustrating things in the series for me. All the characters jump on the evil winter train and think Summer is all rainbows and unicorns. We saw Titania almost lose herself to her passion in an emotional outburst and burn Harry to ash. Like Rasins said we've had the rampant growth aspect of Summer mentioned in the series. There is the fact that in nature it is about the strongest surviving at the expense of the weaker. I'm just waiting for the characters to realize that maybe Winter is not all bad and Summer is not all good. I prefer Winter's logic personally. They won't stab you in the back until it is warranted.

Gotta remember that it's all from Harry's perspective and he's only had interaction with Winter (mostly).  He's never been at odds with Summer, until Cold Days that is.

I'm not counting Summer Knight as he was just learning about the courts at that point so wasn't really paying attention to those kinds of things.

Warm and passionate or cold and calculating, both can be a problem with the wrong frame of mind.

I agree. I'm just waiting for the characters in the Dresdenverse to realize it.

[Rasins]

I agree. I'm just waiting for the characters in the Dresdenverse to realize it.

I think part of the reason they don't seem to realize it is because it's from Harry's POV.  I think many do already realize that ALL of the Fae are dangerous.

[wardenferry419]

The Fae have a lawyer mentality and speak in legalese. That will always be a problem for those that can't translate.

Or are too rushed to take care.

Can't cover all the variables that could be used to gain advantage.

You never can.  Especially with the Fae.
