What could be the plot of 'Harry and Padma Yule Ball fanfiction'?

Perhaps Harry asks Padma for help regarding his date with Cho. He's all confused about how to make Cho happy at the ball. Padma, being a girl, might give him some useful tips. Like she could tell him about the kind of flowers Cho might like or the type of music she enjoys. This would show Harry's vulnerability and his attempt to make his date a success, while also creating an unexpected bond between him and Padma.

Padma might be really excited. She could immediately start chatting with Harry about the Yule Ball. She might tell him about her dress, how she prepared for the ball, and all the things she's looking forward to. She could also ask Harry about his date, and if he doesn't have one, she might even suggest that they go around the ball together and have some fun.

The main characters are clearly Harry and Padma. Harry, the famous Boy - Who - Lived, is known for his battles against Voldemort. Padma is a student at Hogwarts, a Ravenclaw, and she is paired with Harry for the Yule Ball.

Well, perhaps in this fanfiction, Daphne has a secret mission at the Yule Ball. She's supposed to spy on Harry for some Slytherin plot. But as she gets closer to Harry during the ball, she starts to have second thoughts. Harry, on the other hand, is just looking for a nice evening after all the Triwizard Tournament stress. They end up having a long conversation during a slow dance and start to develop a friendship that could potentially turn into something more.

One possible plot could be that Tonks, using her Metamorphmagus abilities, disguises herself as someone else to secretly attend the Yule Ball with Harry. They share a few dances and have deep conversations about the wizarding world's future and the challenges they both face. Harry is initially confused by her disguised appearance but later realizes it's Tonks.

One idea could be that Harry, who is initially nervous about the Yule Ball, gets some unexpected advice from Luna. She tells him to just be himself and not worry about the formalities. So at the ball, Harry and Luna end up having a really fun time, dancing in their own unique way, much to the amusement and envy of some of the other students.

One possible plot could be that Harry, being his awkward self, initially doesn't know how to approach Daphne at the Yule Ball. But then they get paired for a dance by some chance. Daphne, who has always been a bit of an enigma, starts to open up to Harry during the dance. They might share some secrets about their families or their fears for the future.

In this fanfiction about the Yule Ball, there are many possibilities for Harry and Cho. They could be initially hesitant around each other. However, the Yule Ball is a special event full of magic and wonder. Maybe they find a quiet corner to talk, away from the noise and the crowd. During their conversation, Cho might open up about her feelings for Cedric, which could lead to Harry comforting her in a new and deeper way, strengthening their bond.

The plot could involve some conflict too. For example, Hermione might initially think it's a joke or be hesitant because she's so focused on her studies for the Triwizard Tournament. Harry would then have to convince her that he's serious and that they can still balance the ball with her studies. Or there could be jealousy from other characters who also had their eyes on Hermione for the ball.

A really interesting plot twist could be that during the Yule Ball, a spell goes wrong and Harry and Lavender are transported to a different time or place within Hogwarts. They have to work together to find their way back to the ball, and in the process, they learn a lot more about each other than they would have otherwise.
