"If I'm wrong, then nothing happens! We go to jail; peacefully, quietly. We'll enjoy it! But if I'm right, and we can stop this thing... Harry, you will have saved the lives of millions of registered voters."
Harry Dresden gave me a flat look that didn't completely hide the way hips lips wanted to pull upwards at the corners. "You know I'm not the Mayor of NYC, right? Or Chicago?" The grin started to slip loose. "Because if you were, I'd have to tell these Wardens 'get him outta here.'"
For a long-naturalized Chicagoan, Harry does a surprisingly good New Yawk accent....
Problem is, the quotage kinda breaks the crossover. But imagine if GhostBusters II had been a Harry Dresden crossover (Darkhallow 2.0 in the Big Apple, anyone?) rather than the... dreck... we got (although I will always treasure the entire Statue of Liberty bit, because damn).
Murphy (flat voice): "What, the T-Rex wasn't big enough for you, Harry? Are you compensating for something?"
Dresden: "Okay, two things: first, you know what I'm not compensating for, and second, I'm using the most appropriate local landmarks! See, I've got plans if we ever have to do this in Rio..."
Edit:
Aaaand, because I'm suffering from shift change-induced sleep deprivation, and apparently on a Dresden kick today:
"Maybe she's born with it?"
"Maybe it's Mab-elline."
