The Slytherins' care could make Harry more open - minded. For example, if they help him with a difficult potion in Potions class, he'll start to respect their skills and knowledge. This could lead to him thinking that Slytherins have good qualities too, not just the negative ones he's been told about.
At first, Harry might be suspicious. But as the Slytherins keep showing kindness, he starts to see them in a new light. He realizes that not all Slytherins are like the ones he initially thought were mean.
Well, they might become more empathetic. Usually, Slytherins are seen as cunning and self - serving, but taking care of Hermione could soften them. For example, they might start to consider the well - being of others more often.
One heartwarming moment could be when the Slytherins protect Harry from a bully in Hogwarts. They might use their cunning to outwit the bully without using magic, showing that they care about Harry's well - being even in non - magical ways.
The Slytherin house's reputation would likely improve. In the original story, Slytherin is often associated with dark magic and evil intentions. But if they take care of baby Harry, it shows that they are capable of kindness and selflessness. People would start to see that not all Slytherins are bad, and there are good - hearted individuals within the house who can look past the enmity between houses and do the right thing.
One possible plot twist could be that the Slytherins, who are often seen as the 'bad guys' in the Harry Potter universe, discover a prophecy related to Harry while taking care of him. This prophecy might not be the same as the one in the original story and could lead them to protect Harry in a way that goes against their traditional Slytherin values. For example, they might have to form alliances with Gryffindors or other houses they usually oppose.
One plot idea could be that the Slytherins secretly protect Harry from the more dangerous Death Eaters within their own families. They use their knowledge of the Slytherin common room's hidden passages to hide Harry when there's a threat. Another could be that a group of Slytherins form a sort of 'underground' protection squad for Harry after they realize he's the key to defeating Voldemort and they don't want Slytherin to be on the losing side. Maybe they start by leaving him helpful potions and anonymous notes with useful information.
Definitely Draco Malfoy. His internal struggle between his family's Death Eater ties and his own sense of right and wrong could be a central theme in the fanfic as he decides to take care of Harry. Then there's Theo Nott. He's a bit of an underrated Slytherin character in the original series, but in this fanfic, he could be the one with a lot of knowledge about dark magic and use that knowledge to protect Harry from any dark spells. And don't forget about Daphne Greengrass. She could be the voice of reason among the Slytherins, convincing them that taking care of Harry is the right thing to do.
In some fanfics, Slytherins might learn of Harry's abuse through rumors that spread within Hogwarts. For example, students could overhear conversations among the Gryffindors who know about Harry's difficult past with the Dursleys. Another way could be if there are certain events that expose Harry's past abuse, like a confrontation where Harry's secrets are accidentally revealed in front of Slytherins.
In Harry Potter fanfic, beautiful Slytherins can be portrayed in various ways. Some may be the antagonists, using their beauty as a weapon to deceive others. Others could be the protagonists or anti - heroes, with their Slytherin beauty being a part of their overall charisma. They could have unique relationships with other house members. For example, a beautiful Slytherin might form an unlikely friendship with a Gryffindor, and through this relationship, both characters grow and learn from each other. This shows that Slytherins, even the beautiful ones, are not one - dimensional in fanfic.
Well, at first, there would be disbelief among many Slytherins. But once they realize it's true, a few of the more empathetic ones might actually feel sorry for Harry. They could start to see him as more than just the 'Boy Who Lived' but as a fellow student who has been through a great deal of pain. They might even try to befriend him secretly, away from the prying eyes of their housemates who might not be so accepting.
One reason could be that they see Harry as a powerful ally. They know his skills and abilities, and they want to be on his side.
