In the 'Harry and Draco in Prison' fanfiction, it could be that the wizarding world has a new, strict regime. Harry, being the symbol of the resistance against dark forces, is imprisoned to silence him. Draco, who has always been on the fence between good and bad, is also thrown in prison for not fully conforming. Inside, they initially clash due to their long - standing rivalry. However, as time passes, they realize that the real enemy is the unjust system that put them there. They combine their skills, Harry's courage and Draco's cunning, to start a prison - wide revolt and try to bring about change in the wizarding world.
In the fanfiction, Draco's shackles could be a key part of his character development. He could start off hating them and feeling completely powerless. But as time goes on, he realizes that they are also a symbol of his strength. He endures the pain and discomfort, and through his experiences in prison, he becomes a stronger and more empathetic person. This transformation could be the central theme of the story.
At first, Harry and Draco would be at odds in prison. Harry, with his sense of justice, would be disgusted by Draco's past actions. Draco, on the other hand, would be resentful of Harry's 'holier - than - thou' attitude. But as they are forced to live in close quarters and face common threats, they might begin to communicate. They could share their fears and hopes. Slowly, this could lead to a grudging respect for each other. Maybe Draco would open up about his family's pressures, and Harry would understand his situation better. This could transform their relationship from enmity to a more amicable one.
Well, it could be a wizard's duel game. Harry and Draco, being rivals, might use their unique spells and skills. Harry could rely on his Gryffindor courage and spells like Expelliarmus, while Draco would use his Slytherin cunning and some dark - ish spells he's learned from his family. The game could be set in the Hogwarts grounds, with other students as spectators.
One possible plot could be that Harry and Draco, after years of rivalry and then gradually getting to know each other better, find themselves in an unexpected situation where they have a child together. Maybe it starts with a magical accident that binds their magic in a way that results in a baby. They then have to deal with the shock from their friends and family. Harry's friends like Ron might be initially very skeptical and angry, thinking Draco is up to something. But as time goes on, they see that Draco has changed and that he and Harry truly care for the baby and each other.
Well, perhaps Snape sets them to clean the potions classroom. Draco tries to boss Harry around at first, but Harry refuses to be pushed. As they clean, they accidentally knock over a vial that releases a magical mist. The mist makes them relive some of their worst memories involving each other. This forces them to understand each other's perspectives better and by the end of detention, there's a less hostile air between them.
Well, perhaps the plot could involve Harry and Draco putting aside their past differences to give Teddy a stable and loving home. They might struggle at first with co - parenting due to their long - standing rivalry. But as they get to know Teddy better and see how much he needs them, they start to work together more smoothly. Maybe they also have to protect Teddy from some dark forces that are after him because of his parents' history.
One possible plot is that Harry and Draco are forced by some unforeseen circumstances to raise Scorpius. Maybe there's a threat to Scorpius's life, and the only way to protect him is for these two former rivals to work together. They gradually learn to understand each other better through the process of taking care of Scorpius, and in turn, they pass on their combined wisdom to the young boy.
Perhaps in the fanfiction, Draco and Severus leave Harry because they are forced to by some external dark force. This could lead to Harry having to face new challenges alone, while Draco and Severus struggle against this force in their own way. They could end up being spies or trying to find a way to defeat the dark power from afar.
Perhaps they go to Forks to start a new life away from the wizarding world. They could find common ground with the outcast characters in Forks. Harry, with his experience of being an outsider in the wizarding world, and Draco, who has also had his own issues of fitting in, might bond with the misfits in Forks. They could end up helping the local community while also learning about themselves.
It could be about a moment of unexpected passion between Harry and Draco. Maybe they have a secret relationship and in a moment of intimacy, Harry gives Draco a hickey. This could cause all sorts of drama in the wizarding world as they try to keep it a secret from their friends and enemies alike.
