Partially, blindness due to not wanting to be bored again. Friendship is magic and alicorn princesses :p.
Partially, because he's not sure that he can kill Harry.
Is there any legitimate reason why a gun wouldn't work? I mean, I now strongly suspect it wasn't loaded, but in theory it should do.
I admit the uncertainty as to how the horcrux system works could mean that killing Tom R. Jr is a bad idea.
This chapter made me suspect that Harry would be brought back by Voldie's horcrux network.
General prophecy shenanigans. There are now two different prophecies orbiting Harry James Potter-Evans-Verres, one of which certainly seems to imply that he's going to survive to destroy the world. Obvious, predictable solutions are likely to fail.
Do we have a source for prophecies coming true reliably? Back in ch 108 Quirrell seemed to think it possible to avert a prophecy.
ch 108
Sadly, I don't think that HPMOR is ever going to have a ch 208!

Why? The gun that Voldemort was using to deter Harry was not the one shot at the end of the chapter; that gun came from his pouch.
