What are the common themes in Snape and Bellatrix fanfiction?

One common theme is loyalty. Both are associated with Voldemort, but in different ways. Snape is a double - agent, and Bellatrix is blindly loyal. Their interactions around this loyalty can be a major theme. For instance, how Snape hides his true loyalty from Bellatrix.

Love in the face of chaos is a significant theme. The wizarding world is in turmoil during the war. In these fanfics, Bellatrix and Snape's love could be a small glimmer of hope or a source of great conflict in the midst of all the chaos. It could also be about the struggle between love and duty. Snape has his duties to Dumbledore and the Order, while Bellatrix is bound by her loyalty to Voldemort. How they navigate their love in the context of these duties can make for a very engaging story.

One common theme is the exploration of power dynamics. Bellatrix is a powerful Death Eater and Harry is the Chosen One. Fanfictions often play with how their powers interact and how they can either oppose or complement each other.

One common theme is her origin story. Writers often explore how she became the dark witch she is in the 'Harry Potter' series. Another theme is her relationships, like with her family or potential friends during her youth. For example, her relationship with her sisters might be a central focus.

Survival is a prevalent theme. Given Bellatrix's murderous and unpredictable nature, Hermione often has to fight for her survival in these fanfictions. It could be a physical fight, or a mental battle as she tries to outmaneuver Bellatrix in a dangerous situation.

A common theme is power struggle. Bellatrix is a powerful and dark witch, and Hermione is also very powerful in her own way with her intelligence and magic skills. So, there's often a back - and - forth as they try to assert their influence over situations or each other.

One common theme is the exploration of dark magic. Since Bellatrix is a known dark witch and Draco was on the verge of fully embracing the dark side, fanfictions often look into how dark magic affects their relationship and individual characters. For example, in some stories, Draco might be tempted by the same kind of magic Bellatrix uses.

One common theme is loyalty. Bellatrix is extremely loyal to Voldemort in the original series, and this is often explored more deeply in fanfiction. For example, stories might show her unwavering commitment to him even in the face of great danger.

A prevalent theme is the dark nature of their relationship. It's often depicted as being based on a mutual love for the dark arts and a desire for domination. In some fanfictions, there's also the theme of obsession. Bellatrix's obsession with Voldemort is a central part, like in the fanfiction 'The Darkest Devotion' where her every action is centered around pleasing and serving Voldemort. And of course, the theme of fear also plays a role, as many characters in the wizarding world fear their combined might.

The theme of the dark side of magic can also be prevalent. Since both are dark wizards, fanfictions may explore their use of dark magic together. It could include their experiments with curses, or how they plan to use dark magic to achieve their goals, like taking over the wizarding world. Their relationship might be intertwined with their shared love for the most dangerous and forbidden forms of magic.
