The 'harry potter exposed dumbledore fanfiction' might deal with events or decisions that Dumbledore made which were not fully explored in the original books. For example, his relationship with Grindelwald and how that influenced his actions later. It could also explore his sometimes morally ambiguous choices, like how he used Harry as a tool in the fight against Voldemort without fully disclosing all the details to him. Fanfiction often takes the existing characters and world and delves deeper into their stories.
Obviously, Dumbledore would be one of the main characters since it's about exposing him. Harry Potter might also be a key character as he was so closely related to Dumbledore in the original series.
Well, in certain Harry Potter fanfiction, Dumbledore can come across as insane. It really depends on the writer's interpretation and the direction they want to take the story. Some might do it for shock value, to create a more edgy or different take on the well - known character. However, the canonical Dumbledore was a highly intelligent and calculating figure, not insane.
Well, Harry might outsmart Dumbledore by using his unique understanding of the magical world in ways Dumbledore doesn't expect. For example, Harry has a more direct experience with some dark magic items due to his encounters with Voldemort. He could use this knowledge to make decisions that seem counter - intuitive to Dumbledore but are actually more effective in a particular situation.
He might give Harry detention. Harry could be made to clean the trophies in the trophy room or help Hagrid with some difficult tasks in the Forbidden Forest under strict supervision.
One possible reason could be that Harry breaks school rules in the fanfiction. For example, if he ventures into the Forbidden Forest without permission. Dumbledore is strict about the safety of students and such disobedience might lead to punishment.
In a fanfiction, Dumbledore might steal out of desperation. Suppose there was a situation where a curse was about to be unleashed on Hogwarts, and the only way to stop it was by stealing a particular ingredient for an antidote from a place where it was not supposed to be taken. Dumbledore, seeing no other option, decides to steal it. His motive here is to save the school and its students, even if it means breaking the rules.
In my opinion, Dumbledore would underestimate Harry Potter fanfiction. Fanfiction is a realm where fans take the original story and run with it in all kinds of directions. There are fanfictions that change the personalities of characters, create new storylines that deviate greatly from the original. Dumbledore, who is bound by the original narrative and his role in it, may not understand the significance of this new wave of creativity that fanfiction represents. He may see it as a distortion of the world he knows rather than a celebration and expansion of it.
Well, it might be a fanfic where a new dark wizard emerges with a unique power to manipulate memories, and they target Dumbledore's memories of Harry Potter. Or it could be a story where Dumbledore gets caught in a complex web of magical experiments gone awry, leading to this memory loss.
Hermione could be a main character. She might use her vast knowledge to help Harry and Dumbledore in their adventures. For example, she could research ancient spells or potions that are crucial for their mission.
