Imo, the person who takes Goyle!Harry's hair and uses
it in Polyjuice
Potion will turn into Goyle. My reason for this is
because Harry has
literally turned into Goyle. The body that Harry
turned into has
Goyle's DNA. If you take a hair for Goyle!Harry, it
will have Goyle's
DNA. Now that I've started thinking about it, what
about Goyle!
Harry's brain? I mean, Harry still thinks with his own
mind - even
when he's inside the replicated body of Goyle. But is
he using
Goyle's replicated brain or his own? Maybe I should
put it this way:
did Harry's spirit enter Goyle's brain, or did their
brains switch
completely?
Hmm, maybe I'm thinking a little too hard.
"Dysis"
Hmm an intriguing question and debate. I have to feel
after forcing myself to read Aristotle's On The Soul
that we need to differentiate between the mind and the
brain.. I mean the soul versus the physical DNA
structured brain. Are they necessarily tied to one
another? Thinking Freaky Friday (shudders a bit at
this reference) bodies may change in appearance but
the soul remains the same.
A friend just suggested Inuyasha for anyone familiar
with the anime..of his blood suppression with his
youkai side. Perhaps the spell works as a
suppression..not a total DNA change.
anyway my first little contribution
