“Harry had refreshed the Transfigurations he was maintaining, both the tiny jewel in the ring on his hand and the other one.”
Hermione, probably.
The play on words with the title of the chapter (Riddles and Answers) and the final reveal was neat. Harry might be a copy of Quirrell!mort who’s had his memory erased (rememberall,) and good ol’ Quirrell!mort needs Harry to get the stone because...?
I’m still really curious how the Deathly Hallows are going to tie into this.
Also, where the hell is Cedric Diggory? Will it be another situation like what happened with the troll? The spare gets killed, or Harry is the spare, and is found defective?
Who says he need Harry to get the Stone? For all we know, he wants Harry to look into the Mirror of Desire in the hope that this will explain what the %&* Harry wants.

Okay. Hm. I think maybe you can’t transfigure Hermione into Hermione if you don’t have a true image of what Hermione was like. But if you had the Resurrection Stone, maybe you could use it to create a true image to work from?
Ahem. The current adventure will not go smoothly. Probably the best argument against my solution is that it also is not mass-producible without more work. And Harry could still do artisanal resurrections.
(We can expect the centaur back. Doubt he’ll be able to find the pieces of that beetle, though.)
Yes. But two minutes before that he was thinking of taking Cedric, and then we get a cut scene to him sneaking about in the hallway with Lesath. That implies that Cedric might still be in play, otherwise we probably would’ve gotten a short sentence or two on why he chose Lesath over Cedric.
Cedric, who may or may not have a time turner, could quite possibly show up.
He’s the Super Hufflepuff! He’s taking all the electives, which is physically impossible without a Time Turner! He was mentioned right before Harry started making thorough off-screen preparations, and then conspicuously forgotten for the rest of the chapter! Dramatic logic dictates that he’s got to show up at some point, probably in some way that involves time travel.
… Unless the whole thing was a throwaway joke about how useless Cedric was in Goblet of Fire, in which case yeah, I guess it was pretty funny.

No idea about the wand/cloak.

Maybe under Harry’s other invisibility cloak. He has two—a time-turned one and a non-time-turned on.
Isn’t the whole shtick with the Mirror that it will only give the stone to someone who doesn’t want to use it?
Doesn’t Harry want to defeat Death more than anyone? And is likely hauling around a transfigured Hermione to do just that?
Is Harry just the backup ritual in case they can’t find the Stone?
Or, is it all just a Harry and Hermione plot to get the Stone to mass produce immortality for all?
He went with Lesath, not Cedric.
