This is a formal announcement that I think the resurrection stone is A LYING LITTLE BITCH and does NOT BRING BACK THE DEAD! (Okay, this was in my last book but I'm really proud, okay? I never manage to think up theories)
I'm sorry but I cannot and will not believe that Lily, James, Sirius and Remus were encouraging him to die. Lily and James who died to save Harry would just casually be like "Yeah, go die, Harry, follow Harry's twisted little plans".
Okay, firstly they were like twenty one so there would probably be a lot of swearing, like so:
Lily
I'm sorry but what the fuck does Dumbledore think he is doing, no, you are my son, Harry, I will kill Dumbledore myself.James
He's already dead... and so are weLily
So? I'm still going to kill him again, raising Harry like - what was it - a Lamb for Slaughter? No, fuck that, he was willing to kill Harry so he should be willing to face the wrath of Lily Potter...James
Aw, you said Lily PotterLily
Yes... because we're marriedJames
Sometimes I forget you know?Sirius
You've been married for like twenty years now Prongs... and Lily, I will join you. Mess with my Godson, I think the fuck NOTLily
You're taking this Godfather business so seriously...Harry
Guys, my mind is made up. I have to die to save everyone, part of Voldemort lives inside me.Sirius
EwJames
Son, you have done so much and we are so proud of you, sacrificing yourself to save everyone? Very honourable, but you are wrong if you think we're going to just let you get yourself killed as part of Dumbledore's plan... the man who fucking STOLE MY INVISBILITY CLOAK, BY THE WAY, then you are wrong. Go back to the castle, we will take it from here...Sirius
We're still dead, mateJames
I AM AWARE OF THAT, PADFOOT!Remus
I think instead of rushing things, we should talk it out, discuss a plan of action here. Maybe deception of some sorts?James
Moony, you got ... oldSirius
You didn't, Prongs ... oh God, I meant that to be funny but it just came out sad... I'm sorry, that was too far...Lily
Sirius, are you crying?Sirius
OF COURSE I AM, I'M ONLY HUMAN AND THIS IS ALL TOO SAD, WE WERE MEANT TO GROW OLD TOGETHERJames
Don't say that, Padfoot... I never got to know my own son and now he's going to die... Damn you, Padfoot!Lily
James, if you start crying then I will start... Oh God, fuck it, Harry, I just want to give you a hug right nowHarry
... what just happened(Remus would probably say similar things about his son, it seems like quite a Remus thing to say)
I refuse to believe that Sirius Black would just be like 'Yeah, death is nice, like falling asleep' and that James would just be like 'You are nearly there. Go die, my son." Lily would not just say 'we're so brave' and then shut up other than some stupid 'always' THAT THE FILMS PUT IN BECAUSE J.K WOULD NEVER DO THAT, IT DIDN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE!
Also as Harry was dying, they were completely silent like NO? There would be a lot of yelling and "I will fuck him up, Harry, I will FUCK HIM UP!" followed by "WE'RE DEAD REMEMBER?". There would be a lot of crying from people, even Remus would kick up a fuss, they would not accept Harry dying lying down, I refuse to believe that.
But here is my theory...
Instead I believe that when Sirius said, "We are a part of you... Invisible to everyone else" that he meant that they were literally figments of their imaginations, if they were actually ghosts they would probably be seen. They were all based off of what Harry remembered of them or what he hoped they would say which is why they completely validate his decision and offer no challenge.
This is why Remus sounded the most like Remus, sort of calm and actually remorseful but Sirius was different and James and Lily were way off. He'd seen Remus very recently and could remember his mannerisms and speech well so he was quite accurate. He hadn't seen Sirius in so long, he'd kind of forgotten how he'd react and with James and Lily, he'd never met them which is why they simply offered hollow words of comfort "You've been so brave" and "You are nearly there... we are so proud of you." It's almost like they are just saying what Harry thinks parents should say and what he's always wanted to hear, that they were proud of him.
It also offers some comfort that the real Lily Potter didn't say always, it was just that Harry had just seen the memories and was like "Oh, she should say the same thing as Snape because he loved her" and it made sense in his mind, IT WASN'T THE REAL LILY!"
They were not the real Lily, James, Remus and Sirius and nothing will ever convince me that they were - E x
