Well, perhaps in this fanfiction, Harry adopts Tom Riddle Jr after a time - travel incident. Harry realizes that by changing Tom's upbringing, he can prevent the rise of Voldemort. He takes Tom under his wing and shows him the value of family. Tom, growing up with Harry, starts to develop different values. He becomes interested in protecting the wizarding world rather than ruling it. This could lead to a completely different wizarding world where the threat of Voldemort never really existed.
In this fanfiction, Harry might adopt Tom Riddle Jr because he feels a sense of responsibility. Harry, having defeated Voldemort, discovers that there's a way to go back in time and change things. He decides to adopt Tom when he's just a young boy. Harry gives Tom a loving home, but it's not easy. Tom has some of his old tendencies. However, with the help of Harry and his friends like Hermione and Ron, they slowly start to change Tom. They introduce him to Muggle culture, which fascinates him, and through that, he begins to understand that there's more to life than just power and magic.
One possible plotline could be that Harry, having seen the destruction Tom Riddle caused as Voldemort, decides to take young Tom under his wing to prevent him from going down that dark path. He could introduce Tom to the love and friendship he never had, like the friendships Harry formed at Hogwarts. This new environment and positive influence might change Tom's view of the world.
One possible plotline could be that Harry, with his knowledge of the Dark Arts from his own experiences, tries to show Tom the true nature of defensive magic. He might start by teaching basic spells like the Shield Charm. Harry could also share his insights on how to resist the allure of the Dark Arts, which is something Tom struggles with in his later years as Voldemort.
Another plot could be that as Harry raises Tom, he discovers some hidden good in Tom that was overshadowed by his later actions as Voldemort. Harry might then use this discovery to try and rewrite the future, preventing all the destruction that Voldemort caused. He could encourage Tom's magical abilities in a positive way, like getting him involved in helping others with magic instead of using it for domination.
A plotline could involve them going on adventures outside of the wizarding world. They could travel to different magical realms, encountering strange creatures and magic systems. Along the way, they learn more about each other's strengths and weaknesses. Harry might learn from Tom how to be more strategic, and Tom could learn from Harry about the importance of loyalty and friendship. Their friendship could be tested in these new and dangerous situations, but ultimately it could grow stronger.
The theme of trust is likely present. Fem Harry has to trust that she can influence Tom in a positive way. And for Tom, he has to learn to trust Fem Harry as his new family. There may also be a theme of identity. Tom has his own identity that is slowly being shaped into something dark, and Fem Harry is trying to reshape it. This fanfiction could also touch on the theme of sacrifice. Fem Harry may have to sacrifice some of her own peace or safety in order to take care of Tom and ensure he doesn't go down the wrong path.
Perhaps in the fanfiction, Harry adopts Tom Riddle when he's still a young boy at the orphanage. Harry then uses his own experiences of growing up without parents to bond with Tom. He teaches Tom about magic in a different way than Dumbledore did, focusing on the positive aspects of magic for good. This could lead to Tom not becoming the evil Voldemort we know.
Well, one possibility is that they try to change Tom's fate. Since they know the dark path he'll take in the future, they might use their knowledge of magic and friendship to guide him towards the light. Maybe they introduce him to a different kind of magic, one that focuses on helping others rather than power for its own sake.
One possible plotline could be that they meet in their school days at Hogwarts. Tom, being the ambitious and sly student he is, notices Eileen's quiet strength. Maybe he tries to use her for some of his dark plans initially, but as time goes on, he starts to develop unexpected feelings for her. Their relationship could be filled with secrecy and internal conflict as Eileen might be torn between her own moral compass and her growing attraction to Tom.
A theme that is often explored is the exploration of the characters' pasts. Since Tom Riddle jr has a very troubled past, fanfictions might dig into it more deeply. And for Harry, his connection to Tom through the Horcruxes also plays a role. By exploring their pasts, the fanfictions try to show how they could have a different relationship than what was shown in the original books.
One interesting fanfiction could be one where Barty Crouch Jr is forced to team up with Harry Potter against Tom Riddle's resurging threat. Maybe in a scenario where Voldemort (Tom Riddle) has found a new way to gain power and Barty Crouch Jr, who has a complex history with the Death Eaters, has to side with Harry to save the wizarding world.
