How can the concept of 'alcoholic Harry Potter starts over' be developed in a fanfiction?

One popular one might be 'A New Beginning for Harry'. It shows Harry realizing his self - destructive alcoholic tendencies and decides to start his life anew. He focuses on his studies more intently and tries to build better relationships with his friends. He also delves deeper into the mysteries of magic in a more sober and focused way.

It can be developed by focusing on how his daily life at Hogwarts changes. For instance, the staircases that move could be a huge obstacle. So the fanfiction could explore how he and his friends come up with solutions like using magic carpets or levitating charms. Also, his broom - flying might need to be reimagined. Maybe he gets a special broom that can be attached to his wheelchair and he can fly around in a different but still exciting way.

One way is through his relationships. For example, if he's been let down by his friends, he might start to feel numb towards them. He could start to distance himself and not feel the same emotions he once did. Another way is through his experiences with the wizarding world's politics. If he feels constantly used or manipulated, it could lead to this numbness.

The concept can be developed by exploring the emotional turmoil of the character stuck as an Animagus. For example, they might feel isolated or frustrated. They could also face challenges in their daily life at Hogwarts. If it's Harry, he might struggle to attend classes or interact with his friends properly. Another way is to create a mystery around how they got stuck and what needs to be done to reverse it. This could involve searching for ancient spells or magical artifacts.

It could be developed by making his eyes a symbol of his unique identity. For example, they could be the reason he has a special connection to certain magical creatures. Maybe he can communicate with a rare beast because of his eyes.

Another way to develop it is through his relationships. For example, Hermione could be initially skeptical but then help him research. Ron, on the other hand, might be a bit grossed out but still support Harry. Their interactions could add depth to the story as Harry tries to master his insect - controlling abilities.

One way could be by exploring a world where magic and the religious life of a nun intersect in a unique way. Maybe Harry discovers a new form of magic that is only accessible through a life of piety similar to that of a nun. For example, he could find ancient spells inscribed in a convent that are related to protecting the innocent, which he feels a strong calling to master.

One characteristic could be the inclusion of wizarding drinks with alcohol content, like firewhiskey. They might show characters consuming these drinks in social settings like the Hog's Head. Another is that it could add a more mature or darker tone to the story, as alcohol often has connotations of adult behavior or problems.

In a 'Harry Potter as a Necromancer' fanfiction, Harry's development could involve him learning from his mistakes. For example, if he accidentally creates a dangerous undead creature, he realizes the importance of control. He could also become more empathetic towards dark wizards who might have been drawn to necromancy for reasons like his own. His relationships with his friends would change too. Some might distance themselves, while others would try to understand and help him. This would force Harry to grow and become more self - reliant in his journey with necromancy.

One problem could be that it might deviate too much from the original spirit of the Harry Potter series. The series is mainly aimed at a wide audience including children and young adults, and excessive focus on alcohol might not be in line with that. Also, it could give wrong impressions about the wizarding world if not handled carefully.
