I theorize that the 'protection' was a one time thing... else before
that point DD would not have had to work for Harry's safety; after
the initial AK rebound, Harry is not just a better-dipped Achilles...
he is vunerable. However, as my earlier post tonight (ok, one of
them) reflected, Lily's love is metaphysically present in Harry's
skin, blood, etc. It is this physical love that burns Quirrel!Mort,
not the protection itself.
When LV takes the blood into himself, his is physically no longer a
being without love of any type... so now the love in Harry's flesh is
not longer a danger. This is not true of LV's mind, however, as we
discover at the end of OotP.
Am I making sense, or am I going downhill as I approach 2 am?
