Crazy HWWB theory revisited [CD SPOILERS]
Serack:
I have to read your entire post, but I want to point out that in one of the book signing Q&A's one of the guys asked about the headaches and said that they had been happening throught the books. Jim deliberately corrected him and said they started after a specific point.
The specific point is important.
So If the headaches are due to the parasite, and the parasite is from Harry's encounter with HHWB, then something later must have trigered it's... rambunciousness.
Or there is another explenation that doesn't involve the HHWB encounter.

I doublechecked what the ThreeEye junkie said to Harry at the police station in SF: '...I see you wizard! I see the things that follow, those who walk before and He Who Walks Behind! They come, they come for you!' So the junkie saw BOTH walkers just by looking at Harry???

That's a sobering thought. And if Jim put it up in the first book, that is simply amazing.
Though it opens up another question: If the 3Eye junkie saw it, wouldn't other wizards who examined him have seen it as well? Or for that matter, anyone who soulgazed him. Maybe there was a special ingredient in 3Eye, that not only opens the sight but also makes you more aware of outsider presences. Would come in handy in the war, even if it is a double edged blade.
Cenphx:
Serack--yeah, both this OP and the earlier one are long winded, sorry! I did theorize a bit about the timing of the headaches coinciding with Lash tighter, logically speaking, than with HWWB, but gave some possibilties for why the headaches started recently. The best of my stuff is the idea that the walker is ramping up because the outsider's plan is hitting critical mass and HWWW is fighting for control. I like the ideas by some of the other posters about potentially Lash and HWWW fighting.

In White Night, Harry gets some major recurring headaches after Cowl sends him a mental whammy via Little Chicago. He doesn't seem to have any particular headaches after Lash's death. He doesn't have any headaches in Small Favor, but Turn Coat opens with one.
Maybe Cowl gave him Nemesis via LC, and the headaches are due to that. Alternatively, maybe the Headaches in TC (and Butters mentions they've been happening for a while) were due to Uriel restoring that part of his brain that contained Lash as his "second intervention."
Cenphx:
Haru-interesting stuff about the possible effects of ThreeEye. But Sells made it and he was infected with Nemesis, right? Why would the outsiders want people to be able to have wizard's sight and/or be able to see outsiders better?? Everything leads to more questions!
