Okay, so far as I can see, this is a relatively new avenue of attack, but I haven’t got a clear idea yet.
Firstly, assuming Harry can tell LV about some power he knows not (does simple knowledge count as a power? Harry could explain calculus or imaginary numbers real quick...), who do we save? One presumably banned option is to ask for Harry Potter (or Tom M. Riddle) to be saved. Who else is there? Obvious suggestions like Mad-Eye, McGonagall and others don’t actually help Harry in his present situation as far as I can tell. Dumbledore?
Secondly, is there any traction in playing the fact that Harry Potter is… well, not the character we’re calling Harry Potter? In Ch. 74 ‘Harry’ actually summons Harry Potter (the fake ritual). I suppose the fact that Dr. Seuss wrote some of it means that it was indeed a fake ritual, so we’ll call this this thread’s crackpot theory. A similar theme is whether by being Tom Riddle, Harry can enter the horcrux system. I put very low odds on him being able to defeat LV from there, but he might be able to reincarnate in a more powerful wizard at least.
Thirdly, we have powers LV knows not. Partial transfiguration… well a number of suggestions have already been suggested involving this so I’ll leave it. I will mention that the fact time-turners are safe seems to imply that anti-matter based ideas simply won’t work for some unknown reason, but diamond bullets seem reasonable if you can find transfiguration material such as your own skin / Hufflepuff bones.
Any thoughts on this? How much of this (other than the horcrux thing) has already been mentioned?
