Perhaps a fanfic where Snape and Harry are accidentally trapped in a magical dimension together. In this dimension, they have to rely on each other to find a way out. During their time there, they are forced to communicate and understand each other better. This situation would strip away the pre - conceived notions they had about each other and create a new dynamic between them.
A possible fanfic idea is that Snape discovers that Harry has a hidden talent for potions, similar to his own. He then decides to take Harry under his wing privately, away from the prying eyes of the other students. This could lead to some interesting interactions as Snape tries to teach Harry advanced potions techniques while still maintaining his gruff exterior.
A Severus Snape pain fanfiction could show his pain through his relationship with Dumbledore. Snape had to follow Dumbledore's orders, even when they were difficult. For example, he had to kill Dumbledore in the end. This act must have caused him great pain and self - loathing. A fanfic could explore his inner thoughts during this time.
In some fanfictions, Snape's motivation to protect Harry Potter might be intertwined with his interactions with Bellatrix. Bellatrix, being Voldemort's most loyal follower, could unknowingly play a part in Snape's plans. For instance, Snape might manipulate Bellatrix's actions to further his own ends of protecting the wizarding world from Voldemort. He could use her over - eagerness to please Voldemort against her.
In some fanfics, Snape and Riddle are portrayed as having a mentor - mentee relationship in reverse. Riddle, being older and more powerful, could have influenced Snape in ways that are not obvious in the original books. For example, in 'The Influence of Riddle on Snape', we see how Snape's early interest in the Dark Arts might have been a result of Riddle's presence at Hogwarts, even if they never directly interacted much.
In some fanfictions, they could be allies in a way that goes beyond what we see in the original books. Maybe they are working together to undermine the more extreme elements of Voldemort's regime. Their combined knowledge and influence could be a powerful force in these fictional scenarios.
One great fanfic is 'The Prince's Tale Continued'. It delves deeper into Snape's life after the events of the original series. It shows his struggle to come to terms with his past and his role in the wizarding world. Another good one is 'Snape's Redemption'. This fanfic focuses on how Snape tries to make amends for his past actions towards Harry and the others. It gives a more in - depth look at his complex character.
Yes, in many fanfics about Harry Potter, Severus Snape is often given a familiar. It could be used to add more depth to his character. For example, if his familiar was a black cat, it could symbolize his mysterious and somewhat dark nature. Fanfic authors often use familiars as a way to explore the relationships between characters and the magical world around them. So it's not uncommon to see Severus with a familiar in these creative works.
In most of the official 'Harry Potter' lore, Harry is not Snape's familiar. However, in fanfic, the rules can be bent and rewritten. So it's possible in some very creative and non - canon fanfictions for this strange relationship to exist, but it goes against the general nature of their relationship in the original books.
A lot of Newt Scamander fanfics are centered around his suitcase full of magical creatures. Writers might come up with new and unique beasts that he discovers and tries to protect. This can make for really exciting reading as we get to explore the magic of these fictional animals.
The fanfic could also focus on the mystery of Harry's family. There might be some secrets about his parents that haven't been revealed yet. Maybe there was a special mission his parents were on before they died, and Harry starts to uncover clues about it in the 'Prodigy Harry Fanfic'. This would give him a new sense of purpose and also add a lot of intrigue to the story.
There could be a fanfic where Snape survives the Battle of Hogwarts. After the battle, he and Harry have to come to terms with their past relationship. Harry realizes how much Snape sacrificed for him and the wizarding world. They start to build a new relationship, with Snape helping Harry to understand some of the more complex and dangerous aspects of magic that were once only known to Snape and Voldemort.
