Well, at first, Harry would probably be very wary of Draco. Since he has his own history with Voldemort and Parseltongue, he'd see Draco's new ability as a sign of potential danger. However, as time goes on, if Draco is trying to use his Parseltongue for good, like communicating with snakes to find out about dark magic threats, Harry might start to trust him more. Their relationship could shift from one of enmity to an uneasy alliance. They could even start to understand each other's insecurities better. Harry has always been an outcast in some ways, and now Draco is too with his strange new ability.
One idea could be that Draco's ability to speak Parseltongue gets him into trouble with the Ministry of Magic which is still very much on edge after Voldemort's fall. They suspect him of dark intentions. Another could be that he uses it to secretly communicate with a hidden basilisk in Hogwarts, left behind from the Chamber of Secrets era. And he might be trying to protect it or use it for some sort of personal gain in the wizarding hierarchy.
It can change the plot by making him an outcast among his peers. For instance, his friends might be wary of him at first.
In some fanfictions, Harry's Parseltongue - only speaking ability might put him in a difficult situation with the Ministry of Magic. They might suspect him of being too closely related to dark magic. However, Harry uses this ability to prove his innocence by communicating with a snake that witnessed a crime committed by a Death Eater, and thus he helps in the fight against the remaining dark forces.
It can introduce new conflicts. If Draco's Parseltongue ability is discovered, it could lead to suspicion from other characters, especially those who are wary of anything related to dark magic. This could create a rift between Draco and his friends or family within the fanfiction world.
Well, Parseltongue could be used to communicate with a Hydra if the Hydra has some snake - like qualities. For example, if it has a hissing language, Harry could use Parseltongue to understand it and negotiate with it.
One implication could be communication problems. His friends might not understand him, leading to some comical or tense situations. For instance, Ron might be completely lost when Harry tries to tell him something important. Also, it could change his relationship with his teachers. If he can only speak Latin, some teachers might be more interested in him, thinking he has a special connection to ancient magic.
It would likely make others more fearful and distrustful of him. Since Parseltongue is associated with Dark Magic in the wizarding world, even those who know Harry well might be a bit on edge. For example, Ron, who already has some insecurities, might become more distant at first, fearing that Harry is being influenced by dark forces.
Yes, it is possible. Fanfiction often takes creative liberties. Writers might choose to have Harry Potter speak only Latin for various reasons. Maybe they want to explore a different aspect of his magical education, as Latin is often associated with magic in the wizarding world. It could also be a way to make the story more unique or to tie in with some ancient magic plotline.
It could bring them closer. Having to learn and speak English together would mean they rely on each other more. They would share the struggles and the joys of mastering a new language, which would strengthen their bond.
Well, in some versions of this fanfiction, Harry might discover it by accident. For example, he could be in a situation where he's near a dragon and instead of the usual fear or aggression from the dragon, it seems to be communicating with him in a strange way. Maybe the dragon's eyes seem to be trying to convey a message, and Harry just somehow understands it, like he has an innate sense that he can pick up on the dragon's thoughts.
