...and obviously i want to continue in my Grindeldore stanning...i am not sorry:D
“They say he showed remorse in later years, alone in his cell at Nurmengard. I hope that it is true. I would like to think he did feel the horror and shame of what he had done. Perhaps that lie to Voldemort was his attempt to make amends . . . to prevent Voldemort from taking the Hallow . . .” “. . . or maybe from breaking into your tomb?” suggested Harry, and Dumbledore dabbed his eyes.
Maybe they didn't want to show someone who killed lots of people having a humanity moment. Probably feared people would draw parallels with real life figures and be outraged. *shrug*
How do we think the wizard community would have continued without The Boy Who Lived, if he'd stayed dead? Do you think they'd still have defeated Voldemort? I'm pretty sure someone would have finished him off, after all the Horcruxes had been destroyed, but I'd imagine there would have been a serious lack of morale. I mean, Harry's just another person and all, but at this point he's their figurehead, so I suppose it would be like losing Dumbledore all over again.

Harry wakes to find himself in a room of red mist. There is a sword here. And a really ugly baby that's been flensed of its skin and is screaming.
Harry: Whut?
Dumbledore: Ah, Harry, so nice of you to join me.
Harry: I'm dead.
Dumbledore: Mostly.
Harry: What do you mean?
Dumbledore: See, Voldemort's curse killed the part of his soul attached to your body, but because of the linkages between you and him, you are still anchored to the Earth. It's all very complicated -- you and he are linked in so many ways I can't keep track. But that's why your wand acted funny at the start of the book. And why his wand, even once he's given up his original, is giving him trouble against you -- all the wands a person owns take on the same properties. I think. The metaphysics of the whole thing is fuzzy even to me. But I think I've told you enough for you to survive the climax, so you can return to life.

- EVEN DEATH WILL NOT STOP DUMBLEDORE TO GIVE AN END OF THE BOOK EXPOSITION LESSON!
- So Voldy fucked himself over the minute he took Harry's blood, tethering them both to life.
- So Harry's wand copy and pasted some of Voldy's power and shot it back when he attacked even with another wand?
- Harry is related to the Peverall brothers, who probably were experimenting and powerful wizards!
- Dumbledore was an Insufferable Genius in his youth.
- Now I suddenly imagine Grindelwald Hannibal Lecturing Dumbledore in the middle of the duel over who killed Ariana.
- Want to see the scene of Dumbledore trying to use the Resurrection Stone.
- Pity the living, not the dead.
- So Dumbledore just paid a house visit into Harry's brain.
