One possibility is that Harry would grow up in a loving family environment. He would be trained by his father, James, and mother, Lily, in magic from a young age. The wizarding world would be a much different place as Voldemort might not have been as bold in his attacks without the Potters' deaths fueling his fear among his enemies. Harry might also have a normal Hogwarts experience without the burden of being 'The Boy Who Lived' and avenging his parents.
Harry would likely enter Hogwarts with a more confident and carefree attitude. His parents could have given him valuable advice about the school, like which professors to befriend and which ones to be cautious of. He might also have some family - related advantages, such as access to special magical items passed down from the Potter family. And without the shadow of his parents' death, he could fully enjoy his time at Hogwarts, participate in more school activities, and not be as isolated as he was in the original story.
One possibility is that James could play a significant role in Harry's growth as a wizard. He might teach Harry advanced magic that Dumbledore or other professors didn't cover. For example, he could pass on family - specific spells or magical techniques. This would change the whole dynamic of Harry's adventures at Hogwarts. He would also be there to protect Harry more directly from Voldemort and his Death Eaters, which would likely lead to different battles and outcomes compared to the original story.
One common storyline is Harry becoming a super - powerful wizard and teaching at Hogwarts. He passes on his knowledge and skills to the new students.
Well, if Harry Potter's parents survived in fanfiction, it would mean that Voldemort's attack on them failed. This could have many implications. First, the wizarding world might not be as on - edge as it was in the original story. The Order of the Phoenix might not have been formed in the same way. Second, Harry's personality would likely be more carefree and less marked by the trauma of losing his parents. He could have grown up with a proper family structure, which would have influenced his values and how he views the world. And third, the story could focus more on the family's adventures together rather than Harry's solitary battles against Voldemort.
Because Harry Potter is such an iconic character. Fans have grown so attached to him over the years that they can't bear the thought of his death. His story has inspired so many, and in fanfiction, it allows for more adventures and the continuation of his magic.
Well, it could be a very peaceful setting. They might be looking down on Harry and feeling proud of all he has accomplished. Maybe they're reunited with their friends who also passed away. They could be having long conversations about the wizarding world and how it has changed since their time.
Well, perhaps the fanfiction could start with Harry finding a way to bring his parents back temporarily. Then he begins to teach them about the modern wizarding world. He could teach them about magical creatures they never got to see, like hippogriffs. He'd also teach them about the political situation at Hogwarts and in the wizarding community, which has changed a great deal since their time. It would be a story full of discovery for his parents and a chance for Harry to have a proper family experience.
Maybe in the fanfiction, Harry discovers a magical artifact that has the power to bring back the dead for a short time. When he activates it, his parents appear. They are a bit disoriented at first. His father, James, is amazed at how much Harry has grown and is like him in many ways. Lily, his mother, is just so happy to hold him. They talk about the wizarding world as it is now compared to when they were alive. Harry also shares his experiences at Hogwarts and how he defeated Voldemort, and his parents are filled with pride for their son.
One possibility could be that Harry is the son of a powerful but mysterious wizard and a muggle - born witch who had to give him up for some reason. Maybe his real father was a dark wizard who was hunted down, and his mother was a brave witch who wanted to protect Harry from that dark legacy.
One possible reason could be that he might feel abandoned. Growing up without them, he could resent the fact that they left him an orphan. He might think that if they were really so great, they would have found a way to survive and be there for him.
