It can lead to a plot of self - discovery for Kurt. He might start to question his talent and then find new ways to improve and prove himself outside of NYADA.
The story might then focus on Kurt exploring other options and opportunities. He could end up in a different school or start a different career path altogether, which would completely change the direction of the fanfiction and introduce new characters and storylines related to his new journey.
When Naruto gets hurt in fanfiction, it can create a sense of urgency. His friends will then have to step up to protect him or find a way to heal him. This can lead to new character developments. For example, Sakura might have to use her medical skills in a more challenging situation. It can also change the course of a battle. If Naruto is the main fighter in a group and he gets injured, the team might have to retreat or come up with a different strategy.
It can create a lot of tension. For example, the team members might be confused and try to figure out why Naruto is avoiding them. This can lead to internal conflict within Team 7. They might start to doubt themselves or their relationships.
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.
It greatly affects the character relationships. Other characters might view Harry differently. Some might be jealous of his newfound power, while others might be more fearful or in awe. Also, it could lead to new alliances. For instance, characters who previously didn't trust Harry might now see him as a key player in the fight against evil. Moreover, it could also change Harry's own character arc. He might have to struggle with the temptation that comes with the power of the Soul Stone, which is a whole new dimension to his growth as a character.
It can make him seem more vulnerable. Usually, Inuyasha is seen as a strong and somewhat brash character. But when he is the victim of abuse in fanfiction, it shows that he has a softer side and can be broken down, which adds a new layer to his character.
It can create a power vacuum. If Snape held an important position in the fanfiction, like a teacher or a key figure in a magical organization, his quitting would leave that role empty, leading to chaos or new power struggles.
It can add tension. Sirius is an important character, and Hermione being rude to him can create a divide among the characters. This divide can drive the plot as other characters might have to choose sides or try to reconcile them.
At the climax of 'The Wife's Story', the wife's discovery about her husband throws the entire plot into a new light. Prior to this, the story was building up with little signs and events that were leading to this moment. Once the climax occurs, it forces the wife to make different choices. This in turn affects the relationships in the story. Her view of her husband is now different, and this change ripples out to how she interacts with other characters as well. The plot then has to deal with the consequences of this new situation, whether it's her trying to come to terms with it or taking action based on what she has learned at the climax.
The overall plot could be streamlined in a way. Since Naruto is not involved with Rias, the fanfiction can focus more on the core elements related to Rias such as her relationships with her peerage members, her family, and her role in the supernatural world she inhabits. This can lead to a more in - depth exploration of those aspects without the distraction of incorporating Naruto. On the other hand, it might limit the scope of potential crossovers or new and unexpected plot twists that could have come from Naruto's interaction with Rias.
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.
