So what was the source of the resonance between Harry and Q?
Did I miss it?
I always assumed it was ritual magic, as arranged by Dumbledore and Lily, and performed by Lily.
But:
Which seems to imply that they hadn't known.
But it seems just way too convenient for Lily to just happen to fulfill the terms of a ritual, and it's unclear that V would have violated the terms by imposing his horcrux on Harry anyway.
At one time, I wondered if Harry was a time turned version of V, and that was the source of the resonance.
So what was the source of the resonance between Harry and Q? I went back to read the "while potion making" talk, but the source of the resonance seems to have been glossed over.
Presumably that they're equal but opposite.
They're not numbers, they're people. They're neither "equal" nor "opposite". What they are is very similar, with some differences.
I guess if Magic Land recognizes them as two versions of the "same" person, as in labeling them both as Tom Riddle, you can play that game. I've seen some comments here or on reddit to that effect, but they seemed snide comments about confusing the Atlantean operating system. The snideness would be appropriate, IMO.
