<snip> To me, triumph gleamed because LV had foolishly made himself 
vulnerable to HP; depression replaced it when DD recalled that the 
method of LV's vulnerability is that LV and HP will die only at the 
same time, i.e. death of this child for whom he feels parental 
affection. 

Bren now:

Hmm. I agree with Phil on this, actually. Harry always felt his scar 
burning when VM was near (PS/SS, CoS), and I think the dream Harry 
had about Frank Bryce in the beginning of GoF was the first more 
obvious sign of Harry-Voldemort connection. They always shared this 
connection, since the night of GH, but Voldemort was too weak for 
Harry to detect him before. Voldemort starts gaining strength after 
PoA, and Harry could feel the connection getting stronger as well. VM 
coming back made the connection more complete, IMO.

Although I must wonder, why wasn't VM aware of this connection 
sooner? Surely VM could see Harry when he was mad, just like Harry 
could VM??

>>> Catlady: My book 7 prediction is that HP shows his heroism by 
continuing to fight LV despite knowing that it means his own death. I 
imagine them burning up in a fireball together, or falling deep into 
the lake under Hogwarts... this was somehow made possible only 
Neville, who fought his way through LV's guards and leapt into the 
fight so it was two against one ... and died, too, of course.

Bren: Hee, I like this idea. I vote for fireball since VM was reborn 
in cauldron, perhaps that's where he can "re-die".

But I want Neville to live, with his parents back to normal. On that 
note, I wonder just how one can be "tortured" into insanity 
permanently?!?!

>>> I took it for granted that "settle for my old body back again, 
and my old strength" meant he would settle for two out three, body & 
strength <<<

Oh right, that makes sense. Thanks for clearing it up for me!!
