How would Snape's personality change in a 'Snape adopts abused Hermione' fanfiction?

Snape would likely become more nurturing. Instead of just being the strict and often cold Potions master, he would have to show a softer side to take care of Harry. He might be more patient as he guides Harry through his magical education and daily life.

Snape would become more nurturing. He's used to being cold and distant, but with a baby to care for, he'd have to soften. For example, he'd learn to comfort Hermione when she cries.

Snape's personality would likely soften. He'd have to be more patient and understanding. Instead of just being the strict and often sarcastic Potions master, he'd become more nurturing. He'd still have his sharp edges, but around Harry, he'd show more kindness and care as he takes on the role of a guardian.

At first, it would be really rocky. Harry has a history of distrusting Snape, and Hermione might be a bit cautious too. But as time passes, Snape's care for them in his own strict way would start to show. He'd probably be tough on them about their studies, but they'd see it's because he wants them to succeed.

In this type of fanfiction, perhaps Snape initially stumbles upon Hermione being abused by some other students or even adults in the wizarding world. Feeling a sense of responsibility, he adopts her. Snape would introduce her to his world of potions and dark arts knowledge. Hermione's inquisitive nature would blend well with Snape's expertise. They might face challenges from the wizarding community who don't understand their relationship, but they stand strong together, with Hermione gradually learning to trust again and Snape becoming more open and caring.

Snape's deaged personality could also be more impulsive. Without the restraint of his adult self, he might act on his emotions more quickly. For example, if he felt wronged, he might lash out immediately instead of plotting a long - term revenge like his older self would do. Also, he could be more curious about the world around him, eager to explore magic in a new way that his older self had forgotten due to years of being jaded.

Snape might become more confident. As a king, he would have to take charge and make decisions without hesitation. His usual brooding and self - doubting nature might be replaced by a more assertive and commanding personality. He would also likely be more protective of his 'kingdom' or those under his rule, which could show a more noble side of his character.

Snape's character could become more calculating and cold - hearted. Tom Riddle is not exactly a nurturing figure, and being raised by him would expose Snape to a world of power - seeking and self - interest. Snape may lose some of his capacity for love and affection that he had for Lily in the original story. He would be more focused on achieving power and status within Riddle's regime. His relationships with other characters would be more transactional. For instance, he would not form the same kind of complex relationship with Narcissa Malfoy as he did in the original story because his priorities would be different, being centered around Riddle's goals rather than his own personal loyalties and emotions.

Well, it often starts with a lot of misunderstandings. Snape has his own preconceived notions about Hermione as a Gryffindor student, and Hermione has her own view of Snape as a strict and often unfair teacher. However, as they live together, small moments start to change their relationship. For example, when Hermione is having trouble with a particularly difficult spell, Snape doesn't scold her but instead patiently guides her. This gradually builds trust between them, and they form a unique bond that is different from the typical student - teacher relationship or even a normal father - daughter relationship.

Snape becomes more empathetic. He starts to see Harry not just as James Potter's son but as an individual with his own struggles. For instance, he might notice how Harry is affected by the loss of his parents more deeply than he thought.
