I predict that it will be revealed that Quirrell or a closely related entity has been abusing Harry on and off throughout his life, to try and make him into a Dark Lord.
I don’t think so. He’s not supposed to use magic on Harry, and his attempts to influence him through their link fail as well.
The Defense Professor had tried to send an impulse to retreat, to don the Cloak of Invisibility and flee; but he’d never been able to influence the boy through the resonance, and hadn’t succeeded that time either.
His inability to influence Harry through the link does not reflect an inability to influence him at all. His influencing the everloving fuck out of Harry in Defense Class.
The part where he can’t use magic on Harry is more of a poked hole in this theory, though. I can answer it, of course, but not without raising more questions. I’ll think about that one.
