What could be the plot of a 'harry potter replaced with a shrub fanfic'?

Hermione would still be a main character. She might be intrigued by the shrub and try to study it. She could be constantly taking notes about its growth patterns and any magical properties it might have.

Well, it could be really interesting. For example, if Harry was replaced with a cat. The cat could have special powers like being able to see things that are hidden from normal view. It could slink around Hogwarts, getting into all sorts of nooks and crannies that a human Harry couldn't. And the way it would interact with other characters would be different too. Hermione might be constantly trying to keep the cat - Harry out of trouble, while Ron might find the cat's antics both annoying and endearing.

The fanfic could center around Harry's life outside of the main events of the books. For example, it could explore his summer holidays in more detail. He could be spending time in the Muggle world and using his magic in creative ways to solve normal, everyday problems. He might use magic to help his neighbor fix a broken fence without the neighbor realizing it was magic. This would add a new dimension to his character and show how he can adapt his magical abilities to different situations.

One possibility could be a world where Harry Potter takes on Voldemort's role in terms of power. The wizarding world would be in chaos as Harry, with his different values from Voldemort, tries to enforce his own version of order. He might use his knowledge of good magic in a twisted way, believing he is doing the right thing for the greater good. For example, he could start controlling the Ministry of Magic to implement changes he thinks are necessary, but which others may see as tyrannical.

One possible plot could be that Harry Potter is hired by Sherlock Holmes to help with a case that involves dark magic. Harry uses his knowledge of the wizarding world to uncover clues that Sherlock couldn't find with just his deductive skills.

Imagine Harry Potter as a bartender. He could be using his skills not just in mixing drinks but also in reading people. Since he has faced so many challenges in his life, he can easily spot if a customer is hiding something or if they are in trouble. His bar could become a place where secrets are shared, and he has to use his wits and magic to keep things in order. He might also have to deal with rival bartenders from other wizarding establishments who are jealous of his popularity and unique drinks.

The plot could involve Harry Potter discovering he has some sort of connection to a dragoness. Maybe he can communicate with her telepathically. They could team up to fight against dark forces in the wizarding world. For example, Voldemort might be after the dragoness for her powerful magic, and Harry has to protect her while also using her strength to defeat Voldemort.

One possible plot could be a deaf Muggle - born student getting their Hogwarts letter. They face difficulties in the beginning as they can't hear the instructions well. But they soon discover a magical device that helps them 'hear' in a magical way, like through vibrations that translate into words in their mind. Then they go on to prove themselves in classes like Charms and Potions, making friends along the way.

Well, it could be that Harry discovers a hidden chamber in Hogwarts that has Xenomorphs in it. Maybe he has to use his magic to fight them off or find a way to co - exist.

Well, perhaps the Hitman gets transported into the Harry Potter universe by some sort of magic accident. He then uses his combat and assassination expertise to help Harry Potter and his friends in their fight against Voldemort. He could teach them some non - magical ways of combat and they could teach him about magic in return. This would create an interesting dynamic between the Muggle - like Hitman and the magical characters.
