In a future fanfiction where Draco and Hermione have a child, the story could explore the challenges of their child growing up in a wizarding world still divided by old prejudices. The child might struggle with being a product of two former rival houses. It could also show how Draco and Hermione's relationship evolved over time, from enemies to lovers, and how they are now co - parenting. Maybe the child discovers a new form of magic that could bridge the gap between Slytherin and Gryffindor once and for all.
Their relationship might become more trusting. In the future, they could have overcome their past differences and rivalries completely. They might rely on each other more for support and decision - making, becoming true friends or even something more.
Perhaps their child would be a key figure in bringing about more positive relations between the wizarding world and the Muggle world. Given Hermione's Muggle - born background and Draco's pure - blood status, the child could use their unique position to advocate for better understanding and cooperation. They might even start a new organization at Hogwarts dedicated to this cause, which would be an exciting plot point in the fanfiction.
Well, they could stumble upon a world where the wizarding and Muggle worlds have merged in unexpected ways. Maybe there are flying cars everywhere that are powered by a combination of magic and Muggle technology. And they could get involved in a battle to preserve the balance between the two worlds, as there might be some who oppose this new form of coexistence. Also, they might discover new magical creatures that have evolved in the future.
One possibility is that it could show Draco having a change of heart. Maybe he realizes the error of his ways and sees a future where he and Hermione work together for the greater good of the wizarding world. They could be fighting against dark forces side by side, with Hermione's intelligence and Draco's knowledge of the inner workings of some dark families proving useful.
Well, in the canon, Draco and Hermione are on opposite sides for a long time. So, this fanfiction challenges that by showing a future together. It goes against the expected animosity between them.
One popular theme could be the idea of redemption for Draco. In many fanfictions, he is shown to overcome his family's dark past and prejudice. Another theme might be the power of friendship or love that develops between Hermione and Draco, despite their initial differences. It could also explore how they navigate the complex wizarding world together, facing challenges from their respective houses and the general wizarding society.
Well, one possible plot could be that their son travels back in time to prevent a great disaster that threatens the wizarding world. Maybe he has some special powers inherited from both Draco and Hermione that are crucial in averting this catastrophe. He might face challenges in getting his parents to believe him and work together, as they come from different backgrounds and had a somewhat antagonistic relationship in the past.
In a fanfiction with this theme, it could be set post - war. Draco and Hermione find themselves in a situation where they are on the run from some dark wizards who are after them for different reasons. During their escape, Hermione gets wet and cold. Draco, having a change of heart after the war, gives her his warm cloak. This act of kindness begins to break down the barriers between them, and they start to have deeper conversations, realizing they have more in common than they thought.
Perhaps there's a fanfiction where a powerful and dark wizard from outside the school is targeting Muggle - borns. Hermione, being a Muggle - born, is understandably afraid. Draco, who has always had a complex relationship with Hermione, is conflicted. He doesn't want to see her hurt because, deep down, he has feelings for her. He ends up using his Slytherin cunning to outwit the dark wizard and keep Hermione safe.
