In the fanfiction, a key event could be Harry's interaction with the Slytherin students. He might start to adopt their ways of thinking and acting. For example, he could be involved in a plot with some Slytherins to undermine another house in a competition. This shows his ability to work with those who have Slytherin - like ambitions. Also, if he is seen hoarding knowledge or resources for himself, like a Slytherin would, during a difficult time at Hogwarts, such as a time when there are shortages of certain magical items. This would be a strong indication of his Slytherin side.
Well, he might show Slytherin traits like cunning. For example, he could use clever manipulation to outwit his enemies, much like Slytherins are known for. He might also be more ambitious in this fanfiction, setting goals for himself that are self - serving rather than just for the good of all.
In the 'harry shows his slytherin side fanfic', it could be that Harry is influenced by Slytherin - related magic or a Slytherin - minded character. So he begins to value power and status more, and his actions become more devious. For example, he might manipulate situations to his advantage in a way that is more typical of Slytherin students. He may also form alliances with characters who have Slytherin - like qualities and distance himself from his Gryffindor friends.
In the fanfiction, Harry may show his Slytherin side by being more politically astute within Hogwarts. He could form alliances with some Slytherin students based on mutual benefits, similar to how Slytherins often do.

Well, it could be about Harry realizing that the Slytherin traits like ambition and cunning aren't all bad. Maybe he starts to use those traits to his advantage in dealing with the challenges at Hogwarts. For example, he could use his new - found Slytherin - like cunning to outwit Voldemort's minions.
In this fanfiction, Harry's character development could shift towards being more self - aware of his own motives. The Slytherin side emerging might make him question his previous actions and reactions. For example, he might realize that he has been too hasty in some battles, and the Slytherin - like caution could be a new addition to his character.

Obviously, Harry Potter himself. Then there would probably be some Slytherin students like Draco Malfoy.

And of course, Harry's Gryffindor friends like Ron and Hermione, who might be a bit confused or concerned about Harry's change.
In this fanfic, Harry's character development could be triggered by interactions with Slytherin characters. Their way of thinking and acting rubs off on him. He gradually becomes more ambitious and less impulsive. For example, when facing challenges, he no longer charges in head - first but instead thinks about the long - term benefits and consequences, just like a Slytherin would. His appearance might also change subtly to reflect this internal shift, perhaps his eyes taking on a more calculating glint.
If Harry was in Slytherin, his friendships would be a complex web. He might initially be shunned by some of the more traditional Slytherins who see him as an outsider.

Harry would have to navigate the political and social landscape of Slytherin, and his friendships would be a means to an end, whether it's achieving academic success, getting a good position in the wizarding world, or simply surviving in a house that values ambition above all else.
