Another great fanfic is 'Standing Tall with Harry'. Here, Hermione stays by Harry's side during his time in the Triwizard Tournament. She helps him with the tasks, from researching about the dragons to figuring out how to survive in the underwater task. Her loyalty and friendship are really highlighted in this story.
One popular one could be 'The Unbreakable Bond'. In this fanfiction, Hermione is always there for Harry during his toughest times at Hogwarts, like when he's facing the mystery of the Chamber of Secrets all over again. She uses her intelligence to help him solve the puzzles.
One great 'Harry stands up for Hermione fanfiction' is 'The Protector'. In this story, Harry defends Hermione against a group of Slytherins who are spreading false rumors about her. It shows their strong friendship and Harry's loyalty.
It's appealing because their friendship is iconic in the original series. Fanfiction that focuses on Hermione standing by Harry allows readers to see more of their bond in different situations. For example, in some fanfics, they face new threats together that were not in the books.
A really interesting fanfic is 'Hermione Against Draco'. In this one, Hermione stands up to Draco during a Potions class. He tries to undermine her skills, but she shows him that she's just as good if not better. There's also 'Facing Draco' where Hermione faces Draco's attempts to get her in trouble with Snape. And 'Hermione's Courage' shows her standing up to Draco's group of Slytherin cronies when they try to corner her in a corridor.
A great fanfic could be where Hermione stands up for Snape when some other characters are gossiping about his past as a Death Eater. She might argue that people should be judged by their present actions and not be condemned forever for past mistakes. She could point out how Snape has risked his life countless times to protect the students at Hogwarts, like when he tried to keep the Death Eaters at bay during the school's attacks. This shows that Hermione recognizes his true worth and is not afraid to go against the popular opinion to defend him.
One good example could be a fanfic where Hermione uses her intelligence to outwit the bullies in a magical duel of wits. She might use clever spells or potions knowledge to put them in their place.
One key moment could be in the potions class. Snape might be unfairly criticizing Hermione's potion - making skills, and she just refuses to take it silently and stands up to him, stating her case clearly. Another moment might be when Snape is being overly harsh on one of her friends, and Hermione steps in, protecting her friend and facing Snape's wrath head - on.
A really interesting 'Harry Potter Hermione and Harry fanfiction' is 'A Different Path'. In this story, the author takes a different turn on the events after the Battle of Hogwarts. Harry and Hermione's relationship becomes more of a partnership in rebuilding the wizarding world. 'The Lost Prophecy' is also good. It focuses on a new prophecy that involves only Harry and Hermione, leading them on a dangerous and exciting adventure. And 'Shared Secrets' where they discover a long - hidden secret that changes their understanding of their friendship and themselves.
One example could be when she uses her intelligence to outwit the bullies verbally. For instance, she might counter their mean remarks with clever comebacks that expose their ignorance. In some fanfictions, Hermione might use magic in a non - violent but effective way to stop the bullies, like creating a spell that makes them trip over their own feet every time they try to intimidate someone.
