Fanfiction: Harry Potter thought to be dead. How do his friends react?

Hermione would probably be devastated at first. She might throw herself into researching ways to bring Harry back or to find out if he's truly dead. Ron would be angry and feel guilty, thinking they should have protected Harry better. Ginny, on the other hand, would be heartbroken but also determined to carry on Harry's legacy.

He might be very sad at first. Harry has always valued his friends, so being forgotten by them would be a huge blow.

Hermione would be heartbroken as well. She would likely try to find a way to bring Lupin back, delving deep into the library's restricted section for any possible spells or solutions. She would also be the one to comfort Harry and Ron, using her logic to try to make sense of the senseless loss.

Hermione would immediately start researching ways to heal him. She'd pour over ancient books and consult with the most knowledgeable wizards to find a cure or at least a way to ease his pain.

At first, his friends would be shocked. Hermione might think it's some kind of dark magic at first glance. But as Harry shows them what he can do, she would start to analyze it scientifically. Ron would be more awed. He'd be like a kid seeing a new cool trick. They would both support Harry in exploring this new ability, but also be a bit cautious as they don't fully understand where it comes from or what the implications are in their wizarding world.

His friends would be very surprised. Hermione would probably be a bit skeptical at first. She'd want to research all about Witchers before she fully supported Harry's new interest. Ron, on the other hand, might be more excited. He'd see it as another adventure and would be eager to hear all about the Witcher world from Harry.

Ron would probably be both shocked and a bit awestruck at first. He might make some typical Ron - like jokes to ease the tension, like 'Blimey, Harry, you're a dragon! At least you'll be good for scaring off Snape now!'. But deep down, he'd be worried and determined to help Harry get back to normal.

His friends would be quite shocked. Neville might be a bit scared at first, thinking it's some new dark magic. But then they'd all come together. Ginny would probably be the one to try and comfort 'cat - Harry' by giving him some fish or milk, thinking that's what cats like. And they'd all be determined to get him back to normal as soon as possible.

Luna would likely have a very unique reaction. She might say that the fanfiction is just another form of magic in the world of imagination. She could tell Harry that he should embrace it in a way, as it shows how much people are interested in his story, even if it is a bit mortifying at first. But she would also respect if he was really bothered by it.

Hermione would probably be both curious and concerned. She'd want to research immediately to find out how and why this happened. Ron, on the other hand, might be a bit more in awe at first. He'd likely make some jokes about Harry looking like a strange bird, but still be supportive.
