I suddenly really hope Harry doesn't "Where did all you zombies come from" travel back to himself as an infant to destroy You-Know-Who for the second-first-only time as the end of the book, leading to his obliviated-adult-in-the-form-of-a-child brain as the cause of his "childhood" genius.

I'm in an unusual position I find hard to express!

  1. I never considered that possibility until your comment.

  2. The possibility is awesome and if the story had really ended that way I would've been totally satisfied, I think.

  3. Now that you've pointed it out and I've thought about it, I'm greedy and want a different awesome ending, so

  4. Now I agree with you and hope it doesn't end that way.
