The relationship would be drastically different. Harry, who has always seen Snape as a rather unlikable figure, would start to see him in a new light. He might come to respect Snape as a father figure. Draco, who has some connection to Snape through his family, would now have a more personal and perhaps more positive relationship with Snape. Snape himself would have to soften his usual harsh demeanor towards Harry. And between Harry and Draco, they would be forced to get along better as they are now under the same roof. They might start to understand each other's insecurities and backgrounds more.
If Snape adopts them in a fanfic, for Harry, it would be a huge shift. He has long been at odds with Snape, but now Snape is his guardian. This could lead to Harry trying to figure out Snape's true nature. For Draco, Snape would be a strict but fair parental figure. He would likely enforce rules that Draco isn't used to from his own family. As for Snape, he would have to deal with the two boys' different personalities. Harry is brave and impulsive, while Draco is more cautious and proud. Snape would need to mediate between them when they clash, and in the process, all three of them would grow closer. They might start to share their secrets and fears, forming a unique bond that was unthinkable before.
They would probably become like brothers. With Snape as their common father figure, they would have to learn to get along. Harry might be more forgiving of Draco's past actions, and Draco would have to let go of his animosity towards Harry.
In the fanfiction, their relationship would be complex at the start. Snape, having his own demons and secrets, would be a bit of an enigma to Draco. Draco, on the other hand, would be dealing with the loss of his family's status. Snape would start by providing a stable home for Draco. As they interact more, Draco would notice Snape's small acts of kindness. Snape would encourage Draco to explore his own identity outside of the Malfoy name. This would lead to a closer relationship, with Snape teaching Draco about things like loyalty, sacrifice, and the true nature of magic, and Draco in turn bringing out a more human side of Snape.
One possible plot could be that Snape, seeing the troubled situations of both Harry and Draco, decides to take them under his wing. He could start by teaching them more advanced magic in a strict but fair way. Harry might initially be resistant as he has his own ideas about Snape, but gradually realizes Snape's good intentions. Draco, on the other hand, might struggle with the idea of being under Snape's authority as he is used to his family's influence. They could all learn to live together, with Snape guiding them through the challenges of Hogwarts and the wizarding world at large.
The relationship would start off rocky. Snape would be resistant to Harry's kindness as he has always seen Harry as James Potter's son. But Harry's persistent efforts to understand and help Snape would gradually break down Snape's walls.
Snape's personality would likely soften. He'd have to be more patient and understanding. Instead of just being the strict and often sarcastic Potions master, he'd become more nurturing. He'd still have his sharp edges, but around Harry, he'd show more kindness and care as he takes on the role of a guardian.
Well, initially, Harry might be resistant to the idea of being adopted by Snape. He may think it's some sort of trick. But Snape, with his own sense of duty and newfound affection for Harry, tries to break through that resistance. As they spend more time together, Snape might share his own experiences at Hogwarts when he was a student, which helps Harry relate to him. And Harry, in return, might show Snape the good qualities he has inherited from his mother. This exchange of vulnerabilities and shared experiences gradually deepens their relationship into something more like a real father - son relationship.
It could change in a more positive way. In detention, they might have to rely on each other to get through Snape's tasks. If they are made to work on a complex magical experiment, they would need to communicate. This communication could break down some of the barriers between them. Maybe they start to exchange a few friendly words outside of detention, slowly building a more amicable relationship.
Snape becomes more empathetic. He starts to see Harry not just as James Potter's son but as an individual with his own struggles. For instance, he might notice how Harry is affected by the loss of his parents more deeply than he thought.
Well, considering Harry, his relationship with the other Gryffindors could be affected. Some might think he has turned to the 'dark side' since he is now under Snape's care. But others might understand that Harry has no choice in the matter. Draco's relationship with Hagrid could be very interesting. Hagrid might be very cautious around Draco now that he is with Snape. And Snape's relationship with the other Hogwarts professors would also change. Some might be more understanding, while others might think Snape is overstepping his boundaries. But overall, these new family dynamics would cause a ripple effect throughout the wizarding world.
The relationship would be a rocky one. Snape has his past grudges against Harry's father. However, living together, they would be forced to interact daily. Harry might start to understand Snape's difficult past and Snape could see Harry's potential. There could be moments of anger, but also moments of mutual understanding, like when Harry helps Snape with some magical experiment.
