In this fanfiction scenario, Harry and Snape could form a sort of bond. Harry could look up to Snape in a way, seeing him as a powerful wizard. And Snape, instead of constantly berating Harry in class, might be a bit more lenient. This would change the whole dynamic in Hogwarts. The other students might be really confused as to why Snape treats Harry differently. And Snape might even secretly help Harry with some of his studies or magical problems before he gets to Hogwarts, which would make their relationship very different from the one in the original series.
Their relationship could be more complex. Harry might see Snape as a bit of an enigma. Snape could be torn between his loyalty to Voldemort at that time (if the meeting occurs early enough) and his growing sense of obligation towards Harry. This could lead to a lot of internal conflict for Snape. And for Harry, he might be more understanding of Snape's later actions in Hogwarts because he had this prior connection. He might think there's more to Snape than just the mean professor he seems to be.
Well, they might not have as much animosity from the start. In the original, Snape had a lot of pent - up hatred towards James Potter which he transferred onto Harry. But if they meet before Hogwarts, Snape could see Harry as just a young boy in need of guidance rather than the son of his enemy. So, their relationship could start off more as a mentor - mentee, at least on Snape's side.
The dynamic would be different. They might be more like co - conspirators in a magical adventure that starts before Hogwarts. They could be more secretive and have a special bond that the other students at Hogwarts might not fully understand. This could lead to them being more isolated as a duo, but also more reliant on each other.
In a fanfic where they meet before Hogwarts, they could have a different kind of bond. Maybe they end up having a little adventure together in their hometowns. This shared experience would make their relationship deeper. When they get to Hogwarts, they would already be best friends instead of just becoming friends on the train journey. They would also be more likely to support each other in different situations right from the start of their Hogwarts years.
Well, it would be a lot more complex. Instead of the animosity that exists in the original story, there could be an underlying bond. Snape might be more protective of Harry from the start, but still struggle to show it in a positive way. Harry, on the other hand, might be more curious about Snape and try to understand him better.
Well, in the original story, there is a lot of animosity between Harry and Snape. But if Harry's father was a Snape fan, it would change the whole backstory. Harry might grow up hearing good things about Snape from his father, which would make his own relationship with Snape much more complex. He might be more inclined to trust Snape from the start, and that would change the entire dynamic of their interactions at Hogwarts.
If Harry saves child Severus Snape, it could improve the relationship between Gryffindor and Slytherin houses. Since Harry is a Gryffindor and Snape is a Slytherin, this act of heroism would break the stereotype that Gryffindors and Slytherins can't get along. Other students might see that there can be cooperation and friendship across house lines.
If there was a rivalry before Hogwarts, it could carry over and make their interactions at Hogwarts more tense. However, this could also lead to them pushing each other to be better. For example, in Quidditch, if Fleur is also a good flyer, Harry might strive to outperform her, which could improve his skills as a Seeker. And over time, this rivalry might turn into mutual respect.
If they were friends before Hogwarts, it could create a lot of internal conflict at Hogwarts. Draco might be torn between his new Slytherin friends who dislike Harry and his long - standing friendship with Harry. He might try to keep their friendship a secret, which could lead to misunderstandings between them.
Well, they might already have a support system in place. When they arrive at Hogwarts, they could be more confident because they have a friend they already know. For instance, if they face bullying from other students, they can rely on each other.
If they meet before Hogwarts, they might already have a sense of loyalty towards each other. So when they get to Hogwarts, they could look out for one another. For example, in a dangerous situation like a run - in with a rogue magical creature, they would be more likely to help each other compared to if they were just acquaintances. This pre - Hogwarts meeting could also mean they have inside jokes or shared memories that make their Hogwarts years more enjoyable.
Well, in the original series, Percy has no relation to Athena like this. So in the fanfiction, their relationship would likely be more complex. They might have a sibling rivalry where they compete in different aspects, like in wisdom or leadership. For example, Percy might be more impulsive and Athena would try to rein him in with her rational thinking.
