I don't understand why showing the thinking of the DM/Author is important for this problem. To me it feels sufficient to show the thinking of the characters alone?
I'm too obsessed with antimatter
A one-atom wide line of antimatter along his skin, down through his shoes, through the ground, and into Voldemort's brain, where you make a microgram lump. Still doesn't kill him, precisely, but it should at least make him mad
If I were Snape, I would use a gas. Something which becomes hazardous after a certain time. Or merely change the nitrogen/oxygen balance after a certain time.
There are two prophecies at work here that I don't understand, which even now have to be vital to the ending
I really don't get why Quirrel is doing this knowing the prophecy of the stars.
Also, the transfiguration Harry is doing is an obvious hint as to the antimatter weapon ending.
Assuming that the Mirror of Erised works the same, Bellatrix is the obvious wielder
Weather's looking good
Who is Sirius? Fudge!
Seriously? Same location again?
I'm beginning to think the/a final enemy might be Dumbledore after all.
(1) Wouldn't Dumbledore, when he was invisibly following HP to the graveyard, have seen the millennia-old stone alight with prophecy?
(2) What if it was Dumbledore's troll, and Quirrel can prove it or, Dumbledore has had a troll guard and he can make it seem like this was it?
Does Bellatrix have a horcrux backup, and if not, why not? You'd think that if Voldemort thought enough of her importance to remove her from Azkaban, he'd have made sure to back her up beforehand?
What steps has Harry taken to investigate the characters of those killed by Voldemort? You'd think that he'd kill/order killed, in particular, people that he did not care to have around in his future realm, once he took power. I'm assuming that the Dark Mark comes with its own self-destruct switch, so he does not have make sure any Death Eater dies. People killed by Death Eaters in self defence do not count.
This might explain why, for example, he did not kill Dumbledore, or any of the truly awesome people in the OOTP (Moody, et al), because he knew that they would be reasonable subjects.
But not in a particularly interesting way
Two points:
"Rule 8: Any technique which is good enough to defeat me once is good enough to learn myself"
Voldemort has been defeated once. What would he do, if he wanted to learn how?
This does not imply that prophecies have intended recipients, though.
I'm not sure that's the way of it in the HPMOR universe. Consider the final chapter- who were those aborted prophecies for?
Feels like we could escape the risk of coordination with many patients distributed over many doctors, and patient and doctor allocation is always random.
