Should HP tell LV the whole deal now? Set it up, I guess, think 
it "to" LV or whatever? And is the secret really useful, this 
prophecy thing, is withholding it useful? Wouldn't HP likely say to 
himself - "well, if LV knows the prophecy, then others will be 
somewhat safer. Bring the thing to a point. And, now I think of it, 
they all came to the damn train station cause now they all think i'm 
the one. They think now that I need to be watched even closer, since 
i'm apparently the only one who can can the snake. . it's canon now." 
(lol). "I felt paranoid and powerless knowing I was being so-called 
guarded so tightly. Is this knowing the prophecy thing a substitute 
for knowing what the hell is going on in the OOP? Am I supposed to be 
satisfied with this? Look at them standing there. I cannot put into 
words what it means to me. But I have a way out. Yes, happily I can 
take this whole destiny thing upon myself. I can inhabit this 
destiny, make it mine, and not someone else's scheme. All I've been 
told is an attempt to keep me from doing this. But I will leave all 
their plans. I will just go."

Also, I assume when HP does tell LV the unedited prophecy, it will be 
part of an attempt to lure LV to the place where he is weakest.

Also, on a side note, if Riddle had succeeded in returning, in CoS, 
would LV have killed him by now? or recruited him? Or would Riddle 
have just given himself a second time? Was it a sure thing? (lol) 
(The old past present and future thing)

okay, off to TBAY
