My question is : why didn't that happen in the MoM Battle at the end 
of OotP? It should have happened then. I feel, the thing that Harry 
has so much of that the Dark Lord knows not of it INTUITION more than 
Love. It was intuition that told him what to do with the dairy in 
CoS. It was again intuition that made him hold on to his wand and 
will the beads to go towards LV. 

So, if LV were to possess Harry and the pieces of souls were to merge 
again, why didn't it happen when there was an opportunity before? 

Point also is, if there is a piece of Harry in LV, why did he also 
suffer mortal agony? He should have felt more comfortable there. 

Can't say - is my vote on this matter. (And I am still a Harry-is-NOT-
a-horcrux believer). I don't think JKR would make it that gross even 
for the drama and hype it could create.

Just my opinion,
Brady.
