You know, technically it would only be Horcruces if the guy who invented them called them that. He obviously got it wrong, but he invented them, so he can call them whatever he wants.

Interesting start! How on earth is Harry going to deal with having his mother LITERALLY in his head? And how will SHE deal with being in her son's head? She knew it would happen ... but I bet she wasn't prepared! LOL

Excellent chapter. The idea of Harry being Lily's Horcrux has been in my head for a long time but I don't know how to write well so...
I liked what you did and will be waiting for what comes next.
Great work.

Interesting start, John, but I fear I must correct your A/N on Las Cruces, NM.
Cruz is singular, Cruces is plural. Las Cruces is Spanish, not Latin...

Lilly with the Horcrux? Interesting premise - it appears you are heading down an alternate path.

Thanks for sharing the story.

This is interesting and has a lot of potential. Keep up the great writing!

Heh, what makes Hermione (or you, I suppose) think that "Horcrux" is a latin word? After all, in Rowling's universe, the Egyptians, at least, had a magical tradition that went back to well before the founding of Rome. There could well be other non-latin traditions she hasn't told us about. "Episkey" for example appears to derive from the Greek "episkeyazo".

Interesting premise, and a story that deserves more comment than this side note. I hope to write more once I've given it a little thought.

"It’s the issue that first got me in trouble at PhoenixSong.net" -- really? I mean, if it's a confirmed *rule* of Latin grammar, then there really should be no discussion required, should there? Was it a "JKR can do no wrong" or "we will follow canon (regardless of its actual correctness)" sort of thing?

Nice 'best of chums' talk between Harry and Hermione, viz the chat on reproducing Weasleys and the like. I'm with Harry, though, on the matter of asking for his permission first. It would have taken a few hours, maybe a day, to speak to both him and Lily ... would the delay have made such a difference?

I continue to ponder the reality that is JKR's world, in that 'souls' can be measured, quantified, detected, like you have here. It would be so nice to *know* that one's essential being will persevere beyond death! That being the definition of a 'soul', I believe. I'm surprised I've never come across a fic which deals with wizards' reactions - particularly muggleborns - once they find this out. A couple of Dr. T's stories addressed the issue (the Dursleys asking Harry about life-after-death, him replying that there was *something*, given the existence of ghosts) but I haven't come across anything that discusses the connotations of the existence of *souls*. Imagine ... in the muggle world one of the biggest questions there is deals with life after death, and souls ... then you get a letter, go to Hogwarts and discover ghosts and spells that can measure 'souls'. As simple as that the question is answered!

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Now we are even. I posted H/M first, and you've posted a Lily>>Harry ahead of me.

Of course this is very different from mine, but fundamentally...

Good work on the horcruces/horcruxes conflict.

I greatly look forward to future chapters.

(This is in no way to be interpreted as a request for future chapters in any advanced timetable beyond your existing plans. I will enjoy them when they come.)

Cheers!

a really interesting idea... will harry ever get to know lily? ps will it be harry/ginny in the end?

Wolfric posted a comment on Saturday 9th June 2007 3:26am for Chapter the First

Interesting, I've been following a story where Harry is host to his father's conciousness but being host to his mother's adds the gender issue to the mix. I like it. Please continue and thanks for writing. W.

Interesting concept. I look forward to seeing what you do with it.

interesting take on the 'harry is a horcrux' plot. for some reason i couldn't stop laughing at the 'expecting the easter bunny line'- something about the pose that harry/lily struck, i dunno. thanks for writing this. it was highly enjoyable.

My favourite line:

'Resistance is futile. You will reproduce."

Harry's had the chance to see enough Star Trek to misquote the Borg? Mind you, the Dursleys would rather Dudley watched science fiction than anything to do with magic, I guess...

Very interesting. So Lily effectively made Harry her own horcrux? In order to protect him? Interesting.

Keep up the good work, I look forward to more.

Lol, Tanydwr

Ooh - interesting.

I look forward to seeing where this goes. And I'm totally on your side in the cruxes/cruces debate :)

clever, clever. This is great. I am really looking forward to more of this very unique story line. I love the Remus/Lily interaction. My only nitpick is why haven't we seen her before??

ta,

Deathly amusing =)

I love the nickname "RJ" for Lupin. Very creative.

*snicker* *guffaw* Oh, now that's an original take on his protection. If this keeps up, the final confrontation with Tom could prove more than a little interesting. I have to feel sorry for Harry, though, sharing a body with his mother is going to feel more than passing strange.
