Another theme is the exploration of their individual strengths and how they complement each other. Hermione's intelligence and Sirius's courage combine in these stories to face challenges that neither could alone. It's about how their destinies, which seem separate at first, start to merge and create something new. For example, in many fanfictions, they might work together to solve a mystery that has roots in both the past (Sirius's time) and the present (Hermione's time).
Love against all odds is also a frequent theme. Given their different backgrounds and the circumstances of Sirius's life in the original story, their relationship in fanfiction often has to overcome many obstacles. This could be things like the wizarding world's expectations, the threat of dark forces, or their own internal doubts. Their love story unfolds in a roundabout way, mirroring the concept of 'roundabout destiny' in the title.
There's also 'Destiny's Twist' which is really interesting. In this fanfiction, Hermione discovers a magical link to Sirius that defies time and space. It has a great plot that weaves together their individual stories and how they come to impact each other's fates in a roundabout way. The character development is well - done, making it a great read for fans of this pairing.
A lot of these fanfictions explore the idea of forbidden love. Hermione and Sirius come from different generations in the original series, so when he's portrayed as dark, it adds an extra layer of taboo to their relationship. Also, mystery and adventure are common. They might be on a quest together, with Sirius' dark side influencing the journey in various ways.
One common theme could be the exploration of forbidden love. Since Sirius is much older and in a different generation than Hermione in the original series, the idea of their relationship goes against the norms. Another theme might be the struggle with one's emotions. Hermione, being a rational character, lusting for Sirius could lead to her internal conflict between her logical side and her new - found emotions.
One common theme is time - often Hermione travels back in time to meet young Sirius. Another theme is friendship. Since they are from different generations in the wizarding world, their friendship is an interesting exploration. For example, they might share knowledge about magic that the other doesn't know.
One common theme is the idea of mentorship. Sirius, being an older and more experienced wizard, can guide Hermione in different aspects of the wizarding world. For example, in many fanfics, he helps her understand the Marauders' era better.
One common theme is mentorship. Sirius can be seen as a mentor to Hermione, guiding her with his more worldly wizarding knowledge. Another theme is the idea of family. Since Sirius is an outsider in his own family, and Hermione has Muggle - born status, they form a kind of surrogate family for each other.
One common theme is time - bending. Since they are from different generations, often the stories play with time travel or alternate timelines to make their relationship possible. Another theme could be the clash and then the melding of their personalities.
The theme of mentorship is also present. Sirius, with his knowledge of the wizarding world and magic, becomes a sort of mentor to Hermione. He guides her through difficult situations and helps her grow in her magical abilities. And there's the theme of loyalty. Sirius is extremely loyal to Hermione, just as he was to his friends in the past, and this loyalty drives his actions to protect her.
One common theme is the clash of different generations. Sirius is from an older generation compared to Hermione, so there are often differences in values and beliefs that create interesting conflicts.
One common theme is redemption. Sirius has had a troubled past, and Hermione could be seen as the one to help him fully redeem himself. Another theme is the power of love across different generations. Since they are from different age groups in the original series, the fanfictions might explore how love can bridge that gap.
