As we know by now (DH read.gif ), Nagini's snake venom kills within minutes. Why did Arthur Weasley survive? As far as I know, snakes can decide whether to put venom into a bite or not, but Nagini's mission would have been easier if Arthur was killed ohmy.gif , wouldn't it?

Did Nagini get second thoughts?
Was it Voldemort's decision - if so, why?
Or was it a side effect of Harry "being there", too? And was it the unusual behaviour of Nagini when biting that showed Voldemort that he was not the only one on the ride inside Nagini's head/body?

In short, was what Harry did to Nagini what we usually know as "possession" - making someone "do things"?
