In Vernon Hurts Harry and Harry Copes Fanfiction, how does Harry cope with Vernon's hurtful actions?

Often, there are plotlines where Harry uses his newfound knowledge from Hogwarts to outwit Vernon. He could use potions to make Vernon see things differently, or use charms to make his life at the Dursleys' more bearable. Also, some fanfictions might explore how Harry's relationship with the wizarding community as a whole helps him in his struggle against Vernon's hurtful behavior. For example, a kind wizard from the Ministry might step in to protect Harry after hearing about Vernon's actions.

Maybe Vernon is jealous of Harry's magical abilities. He might see Harry as a threat to his 'normal' family image. Also, Vernon has always been a bully at heart and Harry, being an easy target in his house, becomes the victim of his pent - up anger.

Harry might cope by retreating into his own thoughts and memories of his parents and the wizarding world. For example, he could think about the good times at Hogwarts to endure Vernon's torture.

Often, Harry's response is a mix of hurt and determination. The hurt from Snape's actions can cut deep, but it also fuels his determination to prove Snape wrong. He may strive to become better at magic, especially in areas where Snape has criticized him. He might also start to question Snape's loyalty to Dumbledore, suspecting that there's more to Snape's actions than meets the eye. This could lead him on a journey to uncover the truth about Snape in the fanfiction world.

Vernon might be jealous of Harry's magical abilities. He could see Harry as a threat to his 'normal' family life and his authority in the household.

Well, in these fanfictions, a frequent theme is the contrast between the Muggle world (represented by Vernon) and the wizarding world that Harry belongs to. Vernon's ignorance and fear of magic lead him to hurt Harry. Also, the theme of isolation is common. Vernon tries to isolate Harry from the wizarding world and his true identity, which causes a great deal of emotional pain for Harry. Moreover, there can be themes of revenge where Harry eventually gets back at Vernon for all the years of mistreatment once he gains more power and confidence in his magic.

Perhaps Dudley finally stands up to his father's cruel treatment of Harry. Maybe he realizes that Vernon's behavior towards Harry is wrong and uses his own physical strength or some clever ruse to get Harry out of a difficult situation Vernon has put him in.

In some fanfiction, Uncle Vernon develops by becoming more accepting. For instance, he may start to see Harry not just as a freak but as a person with unique abilities that can be useful. He might begin to tolerate the wizarding world a bit more, especially if he realizes that Harry can use his magic to protect the family from certain threats.
