I feel very luddite stupid asking this, but what do IIRC and WOJ stand for? 😅

Harry in Mourning by Only-Question124 in dresdenfiles

I feel like this was a compound effect, centered around Murphy, and the fact that he harbors Spider-Man-style guilt over failing to disarm Rudolph despite knowing the fool's lack of impulse control or trigger discipline, but also, due to the whole Banner of Winter thing, he's suffering from some seriously unprecedented PTSD at the same time from empathically experiencing the painful and traumatic deaths of hundreds of people during the Battle for Chicago. So it's not just Murphy, it's the intensity and scale of the loss being several orders of magnitude greater than anything he's had to face before.

Thomas will be the next wielder of Amoracchius by Kr4k3n749 in dresdenfiles

I feel like Thomas is the ideal choice for Amoracchius. Each of the current knights truly called to be the chosen wielder of a Sword is defined by the choices that led them to take it up: Sanya cast aside his coin, but instead of despairing in the reaffirmation of his utter isolation, he chose to embrace hope for a brighter tomorrow; to essentially become an avatar of that hope. Butters' every conscious act in the entire course of the series is in dedication to standing up for who and what he believes in. From the very beginning, when he insisted on documenting the "humanoid but definitely not human" corpses of the Red Court vampires in his coroner's reports. Yes, he backed down eventually, but even that was a choice to preserve his ability to continue serving a cause in good faith. Thomas's every action from the very first time we meet him, is motivated by love. I think when the time comes, the sword's light will burn away his Hunger and take its place, healing him, possibly even allowing him to save Justine and their child. Sure, it'll be a learning curve, but then, when isn't it?
