In fanfiction, how could Draco Malfoy be affected by the Avada Kedavra curse without being killed?

Well, perhaps in the fanfiction, Draco Malfoy is researching a way to counter the Avada Kedavra. He could be secretly working with some of the more intelligent and magically inclined students at Hogwarts. They might be trying to find a protection spell that can block the Avada Kedavra. This could lead to a lot of sneaking around, secret meetings in the Room of Requirement, and tense moments when they think they're about to be discovered by the Death Eaters or other dark forces.

In some fanfictions, Avada Kedavra is used as a way to explore the darker side of characters. For example, a character who was previously seen as good might be forced to use it in self - defense, which then causes them to struggle with guilt. It can also be used to create alternate universes where the spell has different effects or consequences.

In my opinion, it depends on how it's done. If the fanfiction is using Harry using Avada Kedavra in a context that is meant to shock and go against the core values of the series just for the sake of being edgy, then it's unethical. But if it's part of a well - thought - out exploration of the character's growth, for example, if Harry is corrupted by dark magic in an alternate universe, and the story is used to teach a lesson about the dangers of straying from one's values, it could be seen as a valid creative piece.

One ethical dilemma is when a 'good' character has to decide whether to use Avada Kedavra. In the original series, it's an unforgivable curse, but in fanfiction, authors might put their characters in situations where it seems like the only option. For example, to stop a powerful dark wizard who is about to kill many innocent people.

One possible plotline could be an alternate universe where Harry is turned to the dark side early on. Maybe he discovers some false information about his parents' death and blames the wizarding world, leading him to use Avada Kedavra on those he believes are responsible.

One interesting 'Harry Potter Avada Kedavra' fanfiction could be one where a character manages to reverse the effects of the Avada Kedavra curse through some ancient magic. In this type of fanfiction, it might explore the idea of life after being hit by the Killing Curse and how magic can be used in ways not previously thought of in the original series.

There is a fanfiction that explores what would happen if the Avada Kedavra curse was used on a magical creature instead of a human. It shows how the curse affects the creature differently and how the wizarding world has to deal with the consequences. It's full of interesting details about magical creature lore and the power of the curse.

Perhaps Draco was used in fanfictions in a way that violated the essence of the original work. This could have led to a sort of decay in the fanfiction ecosystem related to that work, making people turn away from it.

A possible plot in such a fanfiction could involve Draco seeking help from unlikely sources. Maybe he goes to Hermione Granger for advice, since she's known for her intelligence and knowledge. This could lead to an interesting dynamic between the two former rivals. The story could also explore how Draco deals with the practicalities of pregnancy, such as dealing with morning sickness while still trying to maintain his status in the wizarding community.

In such a fanfiction, their relationship could start off rocky. Draco, with his Slytherin pride, might initially be dismissive of Luna, seeing her as an odd Ravenclaw. But as the story progresses, they could discover their family connection and start to bond over their shared experiences of being different in their own ways. Maybe they find common ground in their love for magic's mysteries, despite their different approaches. Draco could learn from Luna's open - mindedness, and Luna could see a different side of the Slytherin world through Draco.
