A common plot could be that there's a corruption within Hogwarts that Dumbledore is unknowingly a part of. Harry, being the hero, discovers this and has to fight Dumbledore to stop it. Another plot might involve time - travel, where Harry from the future goes back and has to defeat Dumbledore to save the wizarding world from a greater threat that Dumbledore's actions in the present are causing.
There could be a plot where Dumbledore has a secret that he's been hiding from Harry. When Harry finds out, he feels betrayed and it leads to a confrontation. In the heat of the moment, Harry's emotions fuel his magic and he manages to defeat Dumbledore. This often plays on the theme of secrets and trust in the Harry Potter world and how they can break relationships.
In some fanfiction concepts, Harry might defeat an 'evil' Dumbledore if Dumbledore was secretly under the influence of a dark magic artifact. This could twist his good intentions and lead him to actions that Harry would oppose. Harry, with his strong sense of justice and loyalty, would then fight against this corrupted Dumbledore.
A common plot is that Dumbledore has been manipulating Harry from the start. He might have arranged events in Harry's life to lead him to a specific fate against Harry's will. For example, making sure Harry attended Hogwarts to be part of the fight against Voldemort.
Maybe the 'evil' Dumbledore was a future version of himself who had been corrupted by time - travel gone wrong. Harry, not fully understanding the situation, battles and defeats this future Dumbledore. This could then lead to a complex time - paradox plot where Harry has to find a way to fix the timeline and save the real Dumbledore from this fate.
One common plot could be the discovery of Dumbledore's long - lost children. Maybe they were hidden for their own safety. Another plot might involve the children having special powers due to their connection to Dumbledore. They could be hunted by dark forces who want to use their power for evil.
In some fanfictions, Dumbledore and Harry might time - travel together. They could go back to key moments in wizarding history to prevent certain dark events from happening. For example, they might try to stop the creation of a powerful dark artifact. This would involve a lot of sneaking around and using their combined magic to avoid being detected by the wizards of that time.
One common theme is manipulation. Writers may show Dumbledore as using Harry and others for his own secret ends. Another theme could be misinformation. They might depict Dumbledore as spreading false information to keep control. Also, power - hungry is a theme, where Dumbledore is seen as being after more power than he lets on.
One common theme is Dumbledore's past. Many fanfictions explore his family, his youth, and the events that shaped him. Another is his relationship with other characters like Grindelwald or Harry. And wisdom is also a big theme, as Dumbledore is seen as a very wise character in the original series.
One possible reason could be that Harry breaks school rules in the fanfiction. For example, if he ventures into the Forbidden Forest without permission. Dumbledore is strict about the safety of students and such disobedience might lead to punishment.
No. While there is a vast amount of Harry Potter fanfiction out there exploring various relationships and themes, this particular 'Dumbledore dominates Harry' in a slash context is not overly common. Most fanfiction tends to focus on more popular pairings like Harry and Hermione or Ron and Hermione, or other more mainstream character relationships within the series.
One common theme is mentorship turned into something deeper. Dumbledore is Harry's mentor, and in these fanfictions, it often evolves into a more profound emotional or romantic connection. Another theme is the power of love and how their bond can overcome the dark forces in the wizarding world. Also, the exploration of age differences and how they deal with the societal norms within the wizarding community.
