Lefou could be an important character. He was Gaston's sidekick before, and now he has to deal with this changed Gaston. He might be confused at first but then could be one of the few people who stand by Gaston through the transformation, adding a layer of loyalty and friendship to the story.
If Gaston truly loved Belle, he would have to change his ways completely. He'd need to stop being so self - centered and brutish. He might start to appreciate Belle's love for books and learning instead of seeing it as something odd. Maybe he'd even learn to read himself and have deep conversations with her about the stories she loves. But it's hard to imagine him changing that much because his pride and his image in the village are so important to him.
The story would take a whole new turn if Gaston and Belle were in a relationship. Gaston, being the way he is, would likely try to mold Belle into the 'perfect wife' according to his standards at first. But Belle, with her strong will, would resist. This could lead to a lot of conflict between them. On the other hand, if Gaston truly changed for Belle, the village might see a different side of him too. However, the Beast would be left in despair, and the magical elements of the story would be disrupted. The story would no longer be about the Beauty and the Beast's journey of love and self - discovery, but rather about Gaston and Belle's struggle to understand each other and make their relationship work in a very different social context.
Perhaps 'y' is a relative of Harry's that was thought to be dead. This relative could have a unique magical heritage that they pass on to Harry, making him even more powerful. For example, if 'y' was a distant cousin from a line of powerful seers, Harry might develop some precognitive abilities.

Fanfiction often takes existing characters and gives them a new spin. In the case of 'belle and gaston 2017 fanfiction', it could explore what would have happened if Gaston had changed his ways, or if Belle had different interactions with Gaston that deviated from the original story. Maybe it delves into a world where they form an unlikely alliance or Gaston has a redemption arc.
Such a scenario in fanfiction would be quite a twist. It could explore themes of abuse, resilience, and the power of love. Belle might find inner strength she never knew she had and could potentially inspire others to stand up against violence.
