Maybe. It'd be an interesting sacrifice, but somehow...I dunno. I keep having these mental images of, like, Fawkes crying a bit on Harry's forehead, and then a magical sort of BOOM and everything's suddenly all right again. *facepalm*
You know, I was wondering about the whole idea of them killing each other off... because if Harry dies, is Voldemort's "soul" split again, thus sorta defeating the whole purpose?
Incidentally, in that dream I had, Tom Riddle was none other than Mr. J. Putnam. Humorously enough.
If Harry dies, presumably the bit of Voldie!soul in him is destroyed, and provided all the other Horcruxes have already been disposed of, Voldemort would then be mortal and someone like Hermione could take him out. I think.
Ouch, that's a tough one. I'm with you, in that I don't think there's any possible ending other than Harry's death. I mean, even if he did survive, what do you do after you've fulfilled your destiny? And he has to be the last Horcrux. I mean, too many clues! "Part of him passed into you" and such. Nothing else could be the last Horcrux. And I bet Dumbledore knew it.
Really, the only way I could conceive a post-war Harry would be through some wild deus ex machina. The most gruesome of which would only lead to dark fic. Perhaps it isn't Harry that must be destroyed, but Harry's soul?
Or perhaps you could write it that Harry isn't the last horcrux, and Harry could survive and be happy and shag Draco and other such cotton candy thing. I like those better. *sticks fingers in ears and hums*
I mean, even if he did survive, what do you do after you've fulfilled your destiny? That's kinda what I'm interested in exploring in this dratted fic, but yeah. First he'd need to survive. And you SO know that JKR won't kill him off. He's going to marry Ginny and have lots of little magical babies. *sighs*
