There could be a fanfiction where Severus and Hermione have a child in a world where the war has ended and they find an unexpected connection. Maybe they were brought together during the rebuilding of Hogwarts. Hermione's intelligence and Severus's deep knowledge of magic could combine in interesting ways as they raise their child, teaching them both academic knowledge and the importance of loyalty.
It could be a story where a magical accident causes Severus and Hermione to be linked in a way that leads to them having a child. For example, a spell gone wrong during an experiment. Their journey would be about learning to co - exist and care for the new life. They might face judgment from others like Harry and Ron at first, but over time, their friends come to accept their relationship as they see how much they love each other and their child.
In this kind of fanfiction, it might be a way to shock the readers. Hermione is a beloved character, and her death at the hands of Bellatrix would be a very unexpected and tragic event. It could also be used to create a new plotline where her friends, like Harry and Ron, have to deal with her loss and seek revenge.
The wizarding media would likely have a field day. Tabloids might spread rumors and speculations. But there would also be positive voices. The relationship could become a symbol of breaking down barriers between different magical groups. Their child could inspire a new generation to look beyond blood status and house differences. For example, younger witches and wizards might see the child's story and be more open - minded in their own relationships and interactions within the wizarding world.
Well, a plotline might involve Snape initially being in denial about the pregnancy. As it progresses, he could start to form an unexpected bond with the unborn child. There could also be a plot where other characters find out and either support him or try to use it against him. Maybe Voldemort discovers it and tries to manipulate Snape in a new way because of this situation.
Ron is often involved. He's Hermione's husband in many fanfictions, so he'd be there to support her during the birth. Harry might also be present, as he's their close friend. He could be the one to ensure their safety during this vulnerable time. Ginny could be another character, perhaps helping Hermione through the labor process, offering her the kind of female support that's important in such a situation.
One possibility is that in the fanfiction, she might be in a situation where she has cut herself off from her friends for some noble reason. Maybe she wants to protect them from some dark magic that she believes will target her during childbirth. Another reason could be that she's on a secret mission and has no choice but to be alone when she gives birth.
A common storyline in such fanfiction is Hermione giving birth in a time when there are new threats emerging in the wizarding world. It could be a new dark wizard or a powerful and dangerous magical creature. The birth of her child then sets off a chain of events that lead to the discovery of new spells or magical artifacts that can help combat these threats. Additionally, some fanfictions focus on how Hermione manages her career as a brilliant witch while also being a new mother, showing her strength and determination in both aspects of her life.
Some students at Hogwarts might be disappointed. They could have been secretly enjoying his fanfiction works and were looking forward to new stories.
Some in the wizarding community might be shocked and disapproving. Given Severus's past and the age difference between him and Hermione, there could be a lot of gossip and judgment. However, their close friends would probably be more accepting and supportive.
It's clearly not ethical. In the wizarding society, just as in our own, there are boundaries for relationships. Teachers are meant to be mentors and guides, not romantic interests for their students. Snape, being a strict and often intimidating teacher, has a professional role to play. Fanfiction might explore this idea, but in the real - life - like moral framework of the wizarding world, it's unacceptable.
