Harry might initially be shocked and angry. He'd try to reason with Riddle, knowing that there must be some underlying reason for his kidnapping. He'd draw on his experiences and the values taught to him by his friends and mentors at Hogwarts to stay strong and not give in to Riddle's demands.
Harry would likely be defiant. He has faced Voldemort (Tom Riddle) before and he's not one to cower easily. So, he'd probably start looking for ways to escape right away, using his wits and any small magical items he might have on him.
Harry would probably be very defiant at first. He has faced Voldemort (Tom Riddle) before and he won't go down without a fight. He would likely try to use his magic skills to escape or at least hold Tom Riddle off until he can find a way out.
One possible plot twist could be that Tom Riddle discovers Harry has a hidden power that he didn't expect. Maybe Harry has the ability to resist Riddle's mind - control spells in a unique way. This could lead to a battle of wills between them where Harry tries to outwit Riddle while being held captive.
Tom Riddle might be very suspicious at first. He is a very intelligent and cautious person. He would likely view time travelers as a threat to his plans or as a strange new phenomenon that he wants to control. So, he could start by trying to figure out their motives and how they managed to travel through time.
One great 'Harry Potter' Tom Riddle slash fanfiction is 'The Heir of Slytherin's Heart'. It delves deep into the complex relationship between Harry and Tom Riddle. The author does an amazing job of exploring their characters in a new light, with a plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
No, it's not common. Tom Riddle is a very complex and dark character. His main focus in the original story is on power, domination, and his own dark magic. Fanfiction is usually a creation of fans for fun and exploration, and it's hard to imagine the cold - hearted Tom Riddle having an affinity for it. However, in some very creative fanfictions, this could be a really different and thought - provoking take.
One popular idea in such fanfiction could be that Harry, through some magical time - turning or alternate reality scenario, discovers Tom Riddle before he fully becomes Voldemort. Harry might see the good in Tom that was lost over time and tries to prevent his fall to the dark side. Their soulmate connection could be a powerful force that draws them together, even as their destinies seem so opposed.
An old Harry Potter fanfiction about Tom Riddle could be about his time as a young wizard trying to gain followers. He was a very intelligent and manipulative character. Fanfictions might explore how he used his charm and intelligence to persuade other students to his way of thinking. Maybe he starts a secret club where they study dark magic together, which is a precursor to his later Death Eaters.
Maybe Harry would teach Tom about the consequences of dark magic. Since Harry has faced Voldemort multiple times and seen the destruction caused by dark spells. He could use these real - life (well, in the wizarding world) examples to make Tom understand that there are other paths in magic that are more positive and life - affirming.
I'm not sure if it's popular. It's a rather niche and unusual concept, so it might not have a wide following. But in the world of fanfiction, there are always small groups of people interested in unique and out - of - the - ordinary ideas.
One great 'Harry Potter Tom Riddle Fanfiction' is 'The Heir of Slytherin's Redemption'. It shows a different side of Tom Riddle, exploring what could have happened if he had been given a chance at a different path. It has a really interesting plot that keeps you hooked from start to finish.
