Formal questions for JKR

Lol .. I have a thread devoted to this topic titled, oddly enough, "Wrap your head around this if you can" in the "Deathly Hallows" section. Check it out if you like.

See if this explanation is satisfactory though. The horcruxes were locked in their respective compartments/chambers/things..whatever..diary, ring, locket, snake, tiara, Harry, cup/mug (drinking thingie). They were trapped there. No scope of combining with the host .. unless Voldemort chose to repent his ever making them so and so. I think they only acted as devices to hold the entity to this world. If the mist-like Voldemort had a soul within the mist .. I don't think so. I can't say for sure if the Voldy that died by his own hand in the final duel had a soul in him per se. But here again, I don't think he did. I think that Voldy was being kept alive only by the bits of soul he had turned into horcruxes. I do not think there was a soul in his new body.

When you say that a horcrux would have been activated upon Voldy's first death .. I'm actually thinking that all the horcruxes were already activated .. they were bits of his own soul after all. That's what kept him alive even after his body had died.

I don't know if this makes any sense. Hey, but I tried yeah..

colin creevy was a muggleborn. a mudblood according to the new regime, how come he was still at hogwarts?

so voldemort had 8 horcruxes without knowing?

No lol. He had 7 horcruxes..the diary, ring, locket, Nagini, Ravenclaw's tiara, Hufflepuff's cup, and Harry. Voldy's body didn't have a soul.

did sirius black reseved the "merlins first class" after they discovered peter?

WHAT? no way!!!

Sirius never came into the open while he was alive. Only JKR knows if he was decorated later lol.

think about the dementors kiss!!!!! you cant live without a soul

That's a bad example to give lol. The body continues to live even after the Dementor's kiss. A zombie like form I think.

The first time Voldemort died .. he lost his body. His soul was preserved in in 6 separate places he knew about and the 7th part was in Harry, as I have always said. He continued to live even without a body because his soul still existed in this world.

Wait..I take all that back. Voldy's body must have had a bit of his soul. Otherwise he wouldn't have been alive after all 7 horcrxes were destroyed. So I guess his soul was divided into 8 parts. Unless..his bit of soul in Harry is still there and it was only his body that died in the duel. I do recall Harry rubbing that scar in the so-called epilogue. Who knows, maybe JKR left herself a loophole to bring Voldy back for another book or two. I'm really grasping at straws here aren't I.
