Kneasy snipped:
One possible answer is that Voldy can see through Harry's eyes,
he knows what Harry's doing. He can affect Harry's behaviour, we
know that (the urge to attack DD). But once you're in somebody's
mind, not only can you rummage through memories, influence
actions, you must know what they're doing - you're viewing it in
real-time. He saw Harry coming.
Kneasy pinched not snipped:
Harry's had a visitor.
Has he gone yet?
Snow:
I suppose you could look at this way, but I really don't think that
possession of the mind was involved, at least not from outside
interference, at this point. IMO
The part of Riddle/Voldemort that
had lied dormant inside Harry since the attack at Godric's Hollow,
that grew greater and more powerful with Harry's age and knowledge
and had peaked at the bodily return of its counterpart; Voldemort,
can often be seen by Dumbledore inside Harry.
In COS Dumbledore sees the same exact traits that he had previously
seen in Riddle when he asked each of them "Is there anything you want
to tell me". Harry harbors an unknown visitor; that part of
Riddle/Voldemort inside Harry that can be seen only by the superior
legilemence Dumbledore.
In COS again, Dumbledore had told Harry that Riddle unwillingly
transferred powers to him but I think, no I'm sure, he neglected to
tell Harry that that was not all that Voldemort had transferred.
The snake part of Harry that wanted to attack Dumbledore was the part
of Riddle/Voldemort that had been transferred to Harry (that's why
there is a significant connection between Voldemort's emotions and
Harry's harbored visitor) `not' Voldemort possessing Harry's vision.
Dumbledore in OOP said to Harry that Voldemort imagined himself, in
his own mind, to be in the Ministry and therefore that is what Harry
had seen. The Lost Prophesy U.S. pg. 829 "Professor Snape discovered,
Dumbledore resumed, "that you had been dreaming about the door to the
Department of Mysteries for months. Voldemort, of course, had been
obsessed with the possibility of hearing the prophecy ever since he
regained his body, and as he dwelled on the door, so did you, though
you did not know what it meant.
This statement from Dumbledore that Voldemort dwelled on the door so
therefore so did Harry is why I feel that Voldemort does not have
anymore than a projection to give Harry's mind, if Voldemort thinks
or dwells on a subject so does Harry. Voldemort did not enter Harry
and make Harry see the Ministry, Voldemort dwelled on the Ministry to
such extent that Harry could see where Voldemort's thoughts were.
Hermione had reiterated a similar response initially when Harry first
told her of what he had seen when Sirius was supposedly held captive
at the Ministry. Harry and Hermione fought over the fact that it was
or wasn't just a dream
as it turned out
it was just a fabricated
dream that was, as Dumbledore had put it, something Voldemort had
dwelled on...so did Harry.
Harry is becoming more acute to his inner, if you will, Voldemort
side or presence but his mother's presence is also present. In real
life it is representative of feeling pulled in either direction. The
voice from within that saves the soul, so to speak. Harry has been
cursed and counter-cursed with his mother's protection and
Riddle/Voldemort's uncalculated invasion.
