In a fanfic with this theme, perhaps Hermione discovers that Ron has some habits or values that she can't tolerate in the long run. For instance, his lack of punctuality or his laid - back attitude towards certain important matters. She might start to compare her relationship with Ron to what she could have had with someone else, like Viktor Krum. She may regret choosing Ron when she sees how much more in - sync she could have been with someone who shares her passion for knowledge and self - improvement on a more consistent level. It could also be that Ron's family dynamics start to weigh on Hermione more as time passes. The chaos and sometimes backward - thinking in the Weasley family might make her feel out of place and question her choice to marry into it.
A possible plot could be that Hermione's own self - growth outpaces Ron's. As she continues to expand her knowledge and influence in the wizarding world, Ron seems to be stuck in his ways. He may not be as open to new ideas or changes as Hermione. This growing gap between them makes Hermione feel like she made a mistake in choosing him. For example, if there are new magical theories or spells being developed, Hermione is eager to learn and adapt, but Ron is resistant. This could lead to many arguments and ultimately her regret. Also, Ron's insecurities could lead to him trying to hold Hermione back from achieving her full potential, which would definitely be a factor in her regretting choosing him.
The author might show Hermione as more introspective. She could be constantly reflecting on her relationship with Ron and realizing the things she overlooked before. For example, she might recall how their differences in values were always there but she ignored them in the heat of the moment. She may also be shown as more independent, trying to break free from the relationship and re - discover herself. Maybe she starts to focus more on her career and personal growth outside of the relationship, highlighting how she has changed from the girl who was once head - over - heels for Ron.
One possible plot could be that Ron is under the influence of a dark spell that makes him act aggressively towards Hermione. Severus, being observant, notices this and steps in to protect Hermione. He uses his potions knowledge to create an antidote for the spell on Ron.
In the fanfic, Hermione might regret choosing Ron over Harry because Harry has a different level of understanding when it comes to her academic pursuits. Harry, having faced the challenges of fighting Voldemort from a young age, might have a deeper respect for Hermione's thirst for knowledge and her need to constantly learn and improve. Ron, on the other hand, sometimes showed impatience with Hermione's studious nature.
Maybe in the fanfic, Ron's laziness becomes more pronounced over time. Hermione is highly ambitious and hard - working, and she might find Ron's lack of drive frustrating, making her regret her choice.
In some fanfictions, it could be a misunderstanding that spirals out of control. Hermione and Ron misinterpret one of Harry's actions. For instance, Harry might be trying to protect them in a secret way, but it looks like he's up to something bad. Their lack of trust then grows, and they end up betraying Harry, perhaps by not coming to his aid when he really needs them, which could have serious consequences for Harry.
One possible plot could be that Ron and Hermione suspect Harry is involved in some dangerous secret magic that could put him in harm's way. So they spy on him to find out more and end up discovering it's all a big misunderstanding. Maybe Harry was just trying to surprise them with a new spell he learned.
In some fanfics, their fight might be triggered by a misunderstanding about their future careers. For example, Hermione might think Ron doesn't support her ambition to further her studies in magic, while Ron may feel Hermione is being too pushy about his own choices.
In a 'Ron is caught abusing Hermione fanfiction', a possible plot could start with a build - up of Ron's frustration and anger towards Hermione over a series of misunderstandings. This could lead to the abuse situation. Once he's caught, the magical community might get involved. There could be a trial - like scenario where Ron has to face the consequences. Hermione, on the other hand, might struggle with whether to forgive Ron or not. Meanwhile, their friends could be divided in their opinions. Some might side with Hermione immediately, while others might try to understand Ron's side of the story. This could create a complex web of relationships and character development throughout the fanfiction.
One reason could be to create drama. The shock value of Ron cheating on Hermione would be high, and it could lead to a lot of emotional turmoil in the story.
One possible plotline could be that Ron and Hermione are influenced by dark magic or a powerful enemy who manipulates them into betraying Harry. For example, they might be under the Imperius Curse. Another could be that they misunderstand Harry's actions or intentions, leading them to believe he has gone to the dark side, so they turn against him in an attempt to 'save' the wizarding world. Maybe they are jealous of Harry's fame and power growing too much, and this envy festers until they decide to betray him.
