Seeing as HPMoR is in large part about pointing out how narrative logic doesn’t work in reality, it seems plausible to me that even if Q == V, that doesn’t necessarily imply that he’s evil. (Well, I mean, he is pretty evil, but I’m not sure he’s going to end up being the Big Bad of the story.)
Following up on the idea of breaking narrative logic, might there not really be a Big Bad at all. Like, Voldemort has sobered up over the years and really just wants to be immortal. He’ll go to great lengths to get there, but doesn’t plan to destroy the world or anything. Just an idea.
I’m feeling somewhat reassured that my theory that Quirrell is evil is confirmed, but is there still room left for him to turn out to be benevolent?
