OH DAMN that's good. I didn't even think about that and you've just made my posts INVALID. Well not entirely like the shit I theorized he could've done still could've happened but ANYWAY damn you're good.
Like it makes perfect sense. Dumbly hearing through Sev that Voldy didn't expect to die or had some vaguely-asserted assurances that he could even come back from death. Dumbly'd know about horcruxes, being Dumbly. Not sure how much I buy into him hoping the prophesy would turn out a certain way (though it's plausible, yes,) but spreading specific rumours for a certain intent is VERY plausible in my mind. He wouldn't have to figure out that Harry's the Harrycrux (but could easily figure that one out later, yeah, and perhaps more readily sure) and there's basic stuff about how he knew about the blood sacrifice ('cause Lily wouldn't have been able to give him that protection if Voldy hadn't actually given her the choice to be spared, but again even just a description of the house and shit, or perhaps a chance to use legilimancy on Harry before Petunia's, could seal that deal. Could've decided on Petunia's beforehand anyway. Both 'cause she's family and 'cause of the DELIBERATE fame shit Dumbly was spreading to have a certain effect, like you said, haha wow that's good.)
