I'm gonna' call these '
Dresden Files Snippits' when I post them from now on. These are from
Death Masks!
Quote:
...a woman’s voice said, “Hello?”
This was my nightmare. “Oh. Uh, hello, Charity. It’s Harry Dresden.”
“Hi!” the voice said brightly. “This isn’t Charity though.”
So maybe it wasn’t my nightmare. It was my nightmare’s oldest daughter. “Molly?” I asked. “Wow, you sound all grown-up now.”
She laughed. “Yeah, the breast fairy came to visit and everything.

“Mister Dresden,” he said. “And Miss Rodriguez, I believe. I didn’t realize you were an art collector.”
“I am the foremost collector of velvet Elvii in the city of Chicago,” I said at once.
“Elvii?” Marcone inquired.
“The plural could be Elvises, I guess,” I said. “But if I say that too often, I start muttering to myself and calling things ‘my precious,’ so I usually go with the Latin plural.”
