got to do really is give Harry a reason to * want* to retain his 
immortality. Verily put him in temptation, place him on the horns of 
dilemma, haul him to the throngs of larruping, corrupting, 
inexpungible * desire*. Make Harry want to do Wrong. After all he's a 
mighty wizard isn't he? Powerfully magical. Like Dumbledore he must 
be capable of both great Evil as well as great Good. Let's see that. 
Let Harry the Seriously Evil Wizard emerge. And let the reader * 
sympathise* with him."

Ok, ok. I know. I know! Enough religious iconography already, but, 
here's one more I plucked from nowhere when reading cj's post. 
Temptation? Like in the last temptation of Christ? In the wilderness, 
before the betrayal and his crucifixion? 

Need to let this stew. Will add more later.
