In many fanfictions, there could be a mix of both. It might start as a platonic bond due to their shared experiences in the wizarding world. For example, they both have complex relationships with Harry. However, the Grimmauld Place setting can add an air of mystery and closeness. The old, dark house could be a backdrop for some intense emotional exchanges that might be misconstrued as sexual tension at first. But often, it could develop into a deep, non - romantic understanding between them.
I don't really support the idea of sexual tension between Hermione and Snape as it goes against the original nature of their relationship in the Harry Potter series. However, some fanfiction platforms like Archive of Our Own might have such works, but I can't specifically recommend any due to the discomfort of this theme.
Well, aside from the sexual tension itself, there might be themes related to the clash of their personalities. Hermione is highly intelligent and confident, while Snape is brooding and secretive. How these two personalities interact and either complement or conflict with each other could be a theme. Also, there could be themes around secrecy. Given the inappropriate nature of a teacher - student relationship in the normal context, how they keep their relationship (if there is one in the fanfiction) a secret could be explored.
One major problem is that it goes against the age - appropriate nature of the 'Harry Potter' series. Hermione is a minor for a large part of the story, and Sirius is an adult. This kind of relationship dynamic in a sexual - tension context is inappropriate.
There's also 'Hermione's Hidden Feelings'. This story delves into how Hermione tries to suppress her growing sexual tension towards a particular character. It's well - written, with detailed descriptions of her internal struggle.
Check out Tumblr blogs that focus on Harry Potter fanfiction. Some bloggers are really into Hermione - centric stories and might have posts about or even collections of sexual tension fanfiction involving her. However, be aware that Tumblr's search function can be a bit finicky, so you may need to dig a bit deeper.
I don't really encourage exploring fanfictions with such themes as it might not be in line with the original spirit of the 'Harry Potter' series. However, if you're interested in Hermione and Sirius - related fanfictions in a more positive and appropriate way, you could look for ones that focus on their mentorship or friendship relationships.
One theme could be a time - travel story. Hermione travels back in time and meets a younger Snape. They end up working together to change certain events in the wizarding world for the better. This allows for an exploration of their personalities and how they can interact in a positive way.
One way sexual tension shows up in such fanfiction is through the power dynamics in the potions setting. A powerful wizard or witch might use their knowledge of potions to gain an upper hand in a relationship, creating a push - pull dynamic. In a story where Snape is a central figure, his brooding presence and his expertise in potions could lead to a charged atmosphere when he interacts with a student or another character. This can be both intimidating and alluring, adding to the sexual tension.
Sure. There are fanfics that center around them teaming up against a common enemy in the wizarding world. For example, they might work together to solve a mystery that threatens Hogwarts. This kind of fanfic emphasizes their individual strengths and how they can combine them for the greater good, rather than any inappropriate relationships.
