One thing that puzzles me is that if neither can live while the
other survives, how long a period is referred to? Obviously, LV was
alive for over a year after Harry was born; again, since the end of
GoF, a year has passed with both HP and LV co-existing in the
magical community. How does the presence of one character interfere
with the survival of the other? I wonder if JKR will spell that out
in books six or seven.
Sarah responded:
My shot at answering the enigma: we're already seeing it when Harry
gets his dreams/visions of being Voldemort. In OotP, at one point
Harry collapsed on the stairs to the boys dorms and started laughing
manically because Voldemort was laughing. Harry sees through
Voldemort's eyes. He doesn't have a sense of being Harry at these
times. He believes himself to be Voldemort. (Ever see Being John
Malkovich? I think it's like that.)
Marcela here:
And don't forget that Voldemort was able to feel Harry's presence
when he was attacking Mr. Weasley. Evidently, when Harry is under a
lot of stress or caring for a loved one (Mr. Weasley's attack,
Sirius' death) Voldemort can't stand it. Unfortunately for Harry,
he did not experience intense feelings of love in fifth year (they
were mainly feelings of rejection, neglect, hatred,
missunderstanding). I wonder what would Voldemort feel now that
Harry is mourning a very close loved one, I guess we will have to
wait for Snape's report on that.
