Their friendship would become deeper. Ron would be more protective and more attuned to Harry's emotions. There would be a new level of trust as Harry has shared such a difficult and personal experience with Ron.
The friendship would change in many ways. For starters, Ron would be more watchful over Harry. He'd be more likely to include Harry in everything he does, not wanting him to be alone. They might also have more serious conversations, and their bond would be strengthened by the shared knowledge of Harry's abuse. Ron would probably become more of a confidant for Harry, and their friendship would be based on a deeper understanding of each other's pain.
In the fanfiction, if Ron finds out Harry is abused, it's a complex situation. Ron's reaction would be multi - faceted. Emotionally, he'd be a mess. He loves Harry like a brother. He might feel guilty for not noticing earlier. Ron would also start to view Harry in a new light, with more compassion and understanding. He would use his Weasley family connections to find resources or help for Harry. Maybe he'd ask his mother for advice or even get his older brothers involved if the abuse was from a powerful source within the wizarding world.
Ron might be shocked at first. He could become very protective of Harry, standing up for him against any potential threats. Maybe he would also be a bit angry that he hadn't noticed earlier.
There are many possibilities. It could be a character from Slytherin who has a long - standing grudge against Harry. They might be using abuse as a means to undermine Harry's confidence and disrupt his relationship in the romance aspect of the fanfiction. Another option could be a dark wizard in hiding who has a personal vendetta against Harry and sees abuse as a way to torment him without attracting too much attention from the wizarding community.
After Snape discovers the abuse, the relationship undergoes a major transformation. Snape begins to protect Harry from not only the Dursleys but also from any potential threats at Hogwarts. Harry, who has been starved for positive adult attention, starts to trust Snape. Snape, in his own brooding and complex way, starts to care for Harry's well - being. He might even start to teach Harry some advanced magic that he wouldn't have taught him before, seeing Harry's need for strength and self - defense in the context of his abusive home life. This new relationship dynamic is a far cry from their initial animosity.
The discovery of the abuse would likely turn their relationship upside down. Draco may go from being indifferent or even mean to Hermione to being her secret defender. This could lead to a lot of internal conflict for him as he has to reconcile his new - found feelings of protectiveness with his old grudges. Over time, their relationship could evolve into a strange sort of partnership where they rely on each other in ways they never expected.
The consequences could be significant. Ron's jealousy and shock could lead to arguments between them. However, if they communicate well, their friendship could survive and even become stronger as Ron learns to accept Harry's relationship.
Well, Draco might initially be shocked. He could choose to confront Ron about it. Maybe he'd secretly help Harry by providing some kind of protection or resources. After all, Draco has his own sense of justice, even if it's different from the norm.
Harry's life would likely become more stable. He might get proper care and attention, which could improve his academic performance at Hogwarts. Also, he could start to make more friends as he is no longer burdened by the secrecy and pain of the abuse. Dumbledore might arrange for him to have some kind of therapy within the wizarding world to deal with the emotional scars.
The abuser might face the wrath of the champions. They could be reported to the authorities in the wizarding world.
Well, first of all, the students would probably be shocked. His friends, like Ron and Hermione, would be extremely angry at the Dursleys. They might try to comfort Harry more often. And the school itself could start providing special resources for Harry, such as counseling or extra protection spells. Also, there could be a big change in the way the wizarding community views Harry. Instead of just seeing him as the 'Boy Who Lived', they would see him as a victim who needs support.
