How does the event of Vernon hurting Harry and Harry collapsing in the fanfiction affect the overall plot?

It can make the story more intense. If Draco hurts Harry early on, it sets up a clear conflict that the story has to resolve. Maybe Harry then has to find a way to overcome this harm, either physically or emotionally.

Often, it can be a turning point in the story. For example, when Harry passes out, his friends might have to take over and make decisions on their own. This can change the dynamics between the characters and lead to new plot developments. Maybe they discover a new threat while trying to figure out why Harry passed out. It also adds suspense as the readers are eager to know if Harry will be okay and what will happen next.

It can greatly affect the plot. For instance, if Harry is female, the way Voldemort views her could be different. He might underestimate her in some ways or be more intrigued by her. This could change the sequence of their confrontations. Also, if Hermione is male, his friendship with Ron and Harry could have new tensions. Maybe he'd be more competitive with Harry, which could lead to different sub - plots within the story.

It can create a lot of drama. For instance, it can lead to a rift between Harry and Ginny's friends who might be on different sides. Some friends might side with Ginny, thinking she has valid reasons for the rejection, while others might support Harry and try to get them back together.

His quitting potions could open up new storylines. He might have more time to explore other areas of magic or get involved in different adventures. For example, he could start an independent study of a unique form of magic that was not possible when he was occupied with potions. This can add more variety to the fanfiction plot.

It can completely change the direction of the plot. For instance, if Harry absorbs the Horcrux early on, he may have to face different challenges than in the original story. He might become a target for both sides, as the good side could be wary of his new, Horcrux - influenced state, and the bad side might see him as a threat to Voldemort's power.

Well, it can create a lot of tension. For instance, if Snape is overly harsh on Harry, it might lead Harry to be more determined to prove himself, which drives the plot forward. Harry could start to dig deeper into Snape's actions and motives, uncovering secrets along the way.

It can create a lot of conflict. Harry is a central character, and his separation from Gryffindor can cause tension between him and his former housemates. This can lead to new alliances and rivalries within the wizarding world of the fanfiction.

The summons in the 'Goblet of Fire' related to Harry can completely change the direction of the fanfiction. If it's a well - written piece, it could mean that Harry is now in a position where he has to face challenges he wasn't expecting. It could lead to him uncovering secrets about the Goblet or the tournament that were previously hidden, and this new knowledge could be crucial for the rest of the story.

Some fans might be very disappointed as Ginny and Harry had a much - loved relationship in the original books. It could lead to a lot of debate within the community, with some fans strongly against such a plotline and others being more open to exploring different and darker aspects of relationships.
