During the duel, they could accidentally swap bodies due to a malfunctioning spell. This would force them to see life from each other's perspective. Harry would understand Snape's bitterness towards his father, and Snape would see Harry's insecurities and the heavy burden he has to carry. This experience could lead to a complete transformation of their relationship, from enemies to something more like reluctant allies.
Their relationship could change if Harry realizes during the duel that Snape has been protecting him all along. This newfound knowledge could turn Harry's hatred or suspicion into respect.
One possible reason could be that in the fanfic, Harry discovers Snape's deeper motives earlier. Maybe he stumbles upon Snape's memories or has a series of interactions that show Snape's true loyalty to Dumbledore and his complex role in protecting Harry all along. This new understanding makes Harry admire Snape.
In this fanfiction concept, the story would be turned on its head. The whole mystery around Harry's parents and his connection to Snape would be reimagined. Their shared heritage as twins could lead to new magical abilities that they discover together. The Hogwarts houses might even treat them differently. For instance, Snape being a Slytherin and Harry being a Gryffindor in the original, but as twins, there could be a whole new dynamic within the houses. And the final battle with Voldemort could be fought in a completely different way with their combined strength and new - found relationship.
Snape's relationship with Harry could become more complex. He might start to see Harry as more than just Lily's son. As headmaster, he has to ensure Harry's safety and development. This could lead to some awkward but necessary conversations between them. Snape may also use Harry as an example to show the other students what it means to be brave and stand up against evil, which in turn makes Harry see Snape in a different light.
In the fanfiction, Snape's impression might make him more protective of Harry. He could start to subtly look out for Harry's well - being, whether it's in the face of other students' bullying or more dangerous threats from the dark side. This would be a significant change from their usually strained relationship in the original story.
It can lead to a completely different dynamic. Harry might have a new perspective on Snape and the magical world.
At first, Snape would be extremely suspicious of Harry. But as Harry proves his intentions by actually helping him, Snape would gradually start to trust him. Their relationship would become less antagonistic. Snape might even start to see Harry as an ally rather than just James Potter's son.
Well, in some fanfictions, their relationship becomes almost like a father - son bond. Snape, having lost Lily, starts to see Harry as someone he can protect and guide. Harry, on the other hand, who has always lacked a proper father figure, starts to look up to Snape. This change is really heartwarming in stories where it's well - written. They start to trust each other more, share secrets, and work towards common goals, like fighting against the dark forces in the wizarding world.
It changes their relationship drastically. Initially, they were at odds. But with Snape taking Harry in, they start to see each other in a new light. Harry might see Snape's more vulnerable side and Snape might see Harry as more than just James Potter's son.
If Snape loses his memory, initially Harry might be very confused. He's used to Snape being his enemy. But without his memories, Snape might not show the same animosity towards Harry. Harry could even feel a sense of pity and try to help Snape regain his memories. Their relationship could shift from one of hatred to a more complex one of trying to understand and help each other.
On the other hand, it could also lead to a strange kind of understanding. Maybe Harry realizes that Snape is under a great deal of pressure and that the punch was a momentary lapse. This could make Harry more empathetic towards Snape, although he might still be angry about being punched.
