In a more complex scenario, Lillian Moon Lemon could be initially involved with a group that Harry Potter suspects of having dark intentions. Harry has to keep an eye on her. However, as he gets closer to her, he realizes that she is being manipulated by the group. Harry then helps her break free from their influence. This shared experience of betrayal and rescue could lead to a deep and trusting relationship between them.
The relationship could start with mutual distrust. Harry has been taught certain things about goblins, and they have their own reservations about wizards. But as they are forced to work together on a task, like protecting a powerful magical artifact from dark wizards, they begin to see each other's strengths. Harry realizes the goblins' knowledge of magic items is invaluable, and the goblins see Harry's courage and loyalty.
In the fanfiction, they could be forced to work together on a project related to lemons. Maybe there's a local fair that requires everyone to contribute something lemon - themed. Through this shared task, they begin to understand each other better. Harry realizes that Aunt Marge has her own insecurities and Aunt Marge sees that Harry is not the troublemaker she thought he was. For instance, Harry could show his creativity and intelligence during the project, impressing Aunt Marge.
One idea could be that Lillian Moon Lemon is a new student at Hogwarts who has a special power related to the moon. She could team up with Harry Potter to solve a mystery that involves dark magic and lunar cycles. For example, there might be a series of strange events that occur only during the full moon, and their combined skills are needed to figure out what's going on.
Through shared secrets. For instance, if Harry discovers something about his family that he doesn't want others to know, and he confides in Aunt Lemon. This would create a bond of trust between them.
It can start with simple acts of kindness. For example, Harry could save Gabrielle from a minor accident during a wizarding event. This would make Gabrielle look up to Harry, and from there, they could start having conversations and getting to know each other better.
Perhaps Harry discovers a hidden room in Hogwarts that was Ariana's. As he explores it, he starts to feel a strange bond with her. He then uses magic to try and bring out her memories or essence. As he gets to know more about her, he starts to see her as a friend and someone he wants to protect, much like he does with his own friends.
It could start with Harry being forced to work with Umbridge on a special project at Hogwarts. At first, they're at odds, but as they work together, they gradually find common ground. For example, they might both be interested in a particular area of magic that is relevant to the project.
By focusing on their shared past traumas. For example, both have had experiences related to Lily's death in different ways. Harry lost his mother, and Petunia lost her sister. They could start to bond over this common pain and gradually move towards a more positive relationship.
One way to develop their relationship is through a magical accident. Suppose a spell backfires and links their minds in some way. Now they can experience each other's memories and emotions. Harry experiences Tom's difficult childhood, which makes him more sympathetic. Tom, on the other hand, gets a glimpse of Harry's future and the destruction he causes as Voldemort. This shared experience could be the starting point for a complex relationship where they both try to change the future and the past. They might argue, they might cooperate, but through it all, they are constantly learning about each other and themselves.
In a fanfic, their relationship could be developed through a magical project. Suppose the Ministry wants to create a new protective charm for the whole wizarding world. Harry Potter, with his unique experiences and skills, is invited to be part of the project. As they collaborate, they learn about each other's strengths and weaknesses. The Minister might be initially dismissive of Harry's unorthodox methods, but as they see the results, they start to trust and rely on each other more.
