First of all, there would be a change in the way Slytherins are perceived by the rest of the school. They are often seen as the sneaky and self - centered house. But if they take a stand for Harry, this stereotype could start to break down. In terms of the overall Hogwarts dynamic, there could be more cooperation between houses. Slytherins might start to work with Gryffindors and other houses to ensure Harry's safety. This could lead to new friendships and alliances being formed. There could also be more tension within Slytherin house itself, as not all Slytherins would agree on how to handle the situation. Some might want to use it for their own gain, while others truly want to help Harry. This internal conflict could spill over and affect the relationships between Slytherins and students from other houses as well.
The relationship between Slytherin and Gryffindor houses could shift. Slytherins might become more protective of Harry, which would be a huge change from the usual rivalry. This could lead to some Gryffindors being suspicious of Slytherin motives.
Well, the power balance within Hogwarts would be affected. If Slytherins start to side with Harry because of his abuse situation, it could change how different groups interact. For example, some students from other houses might see Slytherin in a new light. Also, the teachers might have to re - evaluate how they handle the relationships between students, especially if Slytherins start to demand justice for Harry. This could lead to a more united front among students against abuse in general.
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.
Well, some Slytherins might initially be skeptical. They are known for their cunning and might think it's a ploy. But if the evidence in the fanfic is convincing, some could feel a strange sense of sympathy. After all, they are not all bad. They might start to see Harry in a new light, not just as the Gryffindor hero but as a victim too.
The relationship becomes more protective. The Weasleys will be more cautious about Harry's well - being.
Well, first of all, the students would probably be shocked. His friends, like Ron and Hermione, would be extremely angry at the Dursleys. They might try to comfort Harry more often. And the school itself could start providing special resources for Harry, such as counseling or extra protection spells. Also, there could be a big change in the way the wizarding community views Harry. Instead of just seeing him as the 'Boy Who Lived', they would see him as a victim who needs support.
Their friendship would become deeper. Ron would be more protective and more attuned to Harry's emotions. There would be a new level of trust as Harry has shared such a difficult and personal experience with Ron.
Harry might start to receive more protection at Hogwarts. Snape could put in place some measures to keep him safe from further harm. For example, he might assign some students to keep an eye on Harry when he's in vulnerable situations.
In some versions of this fanfiction, it could be Neville. He also had a difficult family situation, so he might be more attuned to signs of distress in Harry. Maybe he notices Harry's worn - out clothes that are too big for him, which could be a sign of neglect, and then starts to piece together that something is wrong at the Dursleys'.
The Weasleys are likely to be horrified. They are a warm - hearted family. Mrs. Weasley might immediately take on a motherly role towards Harry, perhaps making him his favorite foods and fussing over him. Mr. Weasley could become very protective, ensuring that Harry is safe from any further harm. The siblings, like Ron, might be angry that Harry had to endure such abuse and vow to always have his back.
Well, it would definitely shock a lot of students. The Gryffindors might be confused at first, seeing Harry be friendly with Snape, who has always been so hard on them. The Slytherins might also be taken aback as Snape has always seemed to favor his own house. But over time, it could lead to more unity in the school. With Harry and Snape being friends, students might be more likely to cross house boundaries and interact more positively.
The battle against dark wizards would be exciting. Imagine the Slytherins using their unique spells and tactics to fight off the dark forces. They might use their cunning to set traps and ambushes. Another exciting battle could be against some ancient magical creatures that are attacking Hogwarts and the Slytherins have to find a way to defeat them using their knowledge of magic and the school's secrets.
