Celia:

Good point! I have always been of the mind that Snape (among others) 
is assigned to follow and protect Harry as much as possible, 
explaining his various appearances at opportune and non-opportune 
times throughout the books, but that is hardly a foolproof 
protection, and certainly Snape was not lurking about in the back of 
the Chamber of Secrets to pop out and save Harry. 

I assume that the protection that Harry had through GoF was LVs 
inability to touch him, and LVs incorporeal form. Do you agree or is 
there more that I am forgetting? Do you think Diary!Tom could have 
touched Harry if he had become completely real?

In terms of his ability to see what happens in CoS, or spy on Harry, 
could DD have a direct connection to Fawkes that allows him to 
follow Harry's progress in the Chamber? I think of the DD:Fawkes 
relationship as a mirror to the LV:Nagini relationship, and we know 
LV can possess and see through Nagini's eyes. Might DD have a 
similar, less sinister ability with Fawkes?

-Celia, still unsure about why LV would trust any of his horcruxes 
to his followers for any reason.
