What are some interesting plotlines in Snape and baby Harry fanfiction?

Well, a popular plotline is the redemption of Snape through his relationship with Harry. In these fanfictions, Harry gradually discovers the sacrifices Snape has made for him and the wizarding world. This leads to a new - found understanding and even a form of friendship between them. There are also fanfictions that explore what would happen if Snape adopted Harry, which is a very different take on their relationship.

One interesting plotline could be Snape realizing that Harry is not like the 'Boy Who Lived' (WBWL) as everyone expected. Maybe Harry has a different approach to magic that Snape initially scoffs at but later comes to respect. For example, Harry might be more interested in the darker arts in a way that challenges Snape's views.

In some 'Snape Adopts Harry' fanfictions, there is a plotline where Snape and Harry have to work together to uncover a mystery at Hogwarts. This mystery could be related to the Dark Arts or some hidden secrets of the school. Along the way, their relationship evolves from a reluctant guardian - ward relationship to a more loving father - son bond. Harry might start to understand Snape's past actions and Snape, in turn, learns to open up and be more affectionate towards Harry.

One interesting story could be where baby Harry is found by Snape instead of Hagrid. Snape, initially reluctant, starts to develop a soft spot for the baby as he realizes Harry is just an innocent child. Another might be a story where baby Harry shows some early magical abilities that Snape is the first to notice, leading to a strange bond between them. And there could also be a fanfiction where in an alternate universe, Snape takes on the role of Harry's protector from a very young age, teaching him magic in secret.

Well, in some fanfictions, Snape might be trapped in a magical trap set by Death Eaters who are still loyal to Voldemort's ideals. Harry, with his natural sense of justice and his loyalty to Hogwarts (where Snape also has a complex connection), figures out the trap's mechanism and manages to free Snape. Or perhaps Snape is on the verge of being attacked by a magical creature, and Harry, using his experience with magical creatures from Hagrid's teachings, scares the creature away and saves Snape.

A great plotline might be that Snape adopts Harry secretly at first. Harry starts to notice some changes in his life, like getting better study materials and more personal attention in his magical education. As time goes on, Snape has to face his own demons while raising Harry. He might struggle with his past hatred for James Potter while seeing James in Harry. At the same time, Harry could be trying to figure out why Snape is being so nice to him all of a sudden, which could lead to a journey of self - discovery for both of them.

Another plot could involve the child having special powers or a unique connection to the magical world because of Snape as their father. For example, they might have an extraordinary talent for potions, like Snape, and this draws the attention of both good and bad wizards. It could create a story full of adventure as the child is caught in the middle of different factions vying for their loyalty.

One possible plotline could be that the kidnappers are actually working for a powerful dark wizard who wants to raise Harry to be his minion. Another could be that the kidnappers take Harry to a far - off land where he grows up without knowledge of the wizarding world until he discovers his true identity in a very unexpected way.

One interesting plotline could be Harry showing early signs of magic that the Dursleys try to suppress. For example, he might accidentally make Dudley's toys float when he's angry or frustrated.

Another plotline is when they are sent back in time together. In these fanfics like 'Back to the Beginning', they have to navigate the past and deal with their past selves. It often leads to some self - discovery for both of them and a chance to rewrite some of their history.
