In the story, this concept could completely transform their relationship. Initially, they were rivals, but the act of tickling could introduce an element of intimacy (not in a romantic sense necessarily, but a closer, more personal connection). It could make them more curious about each other. Harry might wonder why Draco did it, and Draco might be surprised at Harry's reaction. This newfound curiosity could lead to more interactions, and they could gradually build a relationship based on mutual respect and a new - found sense of camaraderie.
One possible plotline could be that it's a moment of unexpected playfulness between Draco and Harry. Maybe they are in a truce situation, and Draco, in a moment of light - heartedness, decides to tickle Harry as a form of friendly teasing. It could be a way to show a new side of their relationship, moving away from their usual rivalry.
In these fanfictions, their relationship often becomes more positive. Instead of being rivals, they become supportive brothers. For example, they might help each other with schoolwork or protect each other from danger.
It changes it a great deal. They go from being bitter enemies to having a much more complex relationship. There's an immediate connection that they can't ignore.
In such a fanfic concept, Draco can be seen in a more dominant role compared to his usual portrayal. This challenges the traditional view of Draco as a more subservient or secondary character. For Harry, it shows his ability to be in a more submissive position, which is a contrast to his heroic, leading - role nature in the original series. It allows for a new exploration of their personalities and how they interact when the power dynamic is shifted.
For Harry, his relationship with Dumbledore could take an interesting turn. Dumbledore might see this new family connection as a way to bring more harmony to Hogwarts. He could give Harry and Draco special tasks together to help them bond. As for Draco, his relationship with his parents would be in turmoil. Lucius and Narcissa might not be happy about having Harry as part of the family, but they also might see some benefits in the long run. This could lead to a lot of family drama and internal conflict for Draco.
Fanfics change their relationship by creating situations where they have to rely on each other. For example, they might be trapped in a magical maze together and need to cooperate to get out. This forces them to see each other in a new light.
In this scenario, their relationship would take a 180 - degree turn. Draco would probably feel guilty about what he's done, and this guilt could drive him to be nicer to Harry. Harry, now a girl, would have to navigate a world that treats her differently. Draco could become her unexpected ally in this new situation. They might start to share secrets and confide in each other more than they ever did before. This new relationship would be full of challenges as they both have to come to terms with their new roles in each other's lives and also deal with the reactions of their friends and the rest of the wizarding community.
Their relationship would likely become less antagonistic. Draco's help would make Harry see him in a new light, not just as a bully. Harry might start to question his previous assumptions about Draco.
It often changes for the better. After Harry apologizes, Draco might be initially skeptical. But as they start to interact more, they could become friends or at least develop a mutual respect. For instance, they might start sharing their experiences during the war, which helps them understand each other better.
One popular 'Draco Tickles Hermione' fanfic is 'A Different Sort of Interaction'. It shows a rather unique take on their relationship where Draco's tickling Hermione is part of a more light - hearted and unexpected bonding moment. Another good one might be 'Ticklish Encounters' which delves deeper into how this strange interaction affects their views of each other within the Hogwarts setting.
