Okay, stay calm. We have ideas about this and they are pretty good.
At least I can help you with the reason DD can finally talk to Harry.
The feelings Harry felt as LV possessed him, the desire to be with
Sirius rather than live, that represents a feeling LV can never
possess. LV could never care for any other human being more than
himself. This feeling, this overwhelming feeling drove LV out of
Harry's body and in essence, gave Harry protection against LV. If you
will notice, DD never addressed Harry directly or looked at him until
after LV was driven out. That is one bit of proof that now Harry
is "safe." I can't say what will happen to the occlumency lessons.
Anyone else have an idea?
