There could be fanfictions where Harry is sent to a different magical school where he encounters abusive teachers or fellow students. Or maybe it's a story that explores the psychological impact of abuse on Harry's magic and his relationships with others.
In my opinion, it is not ethical. Harry Potter is a beloved story with a wide range of fans, including those with disabilities. Creating fanfiction that involves abusing disabled characters is cruel. It can be offensive to disabled people who see themselves in those characters. Fanfiction should be a platform for creativity that respects the original work and the diverse audience it has.
Well, it's not acceptable. Harry Potter is a character that represents hope, courage and growth in the original series. Creating fanfiction that involves abuse of such a character is not only disrespectful to the original work but also can be disturbing for other fans. Fanfiction should aim to expand on the positive aspects of the story or explore new ideas in a positive light.
No. Most mainstream Harry Potter fanfiction focuses on other aspects like adventure, romance, or exploring different magical elements. Fanfiction about abuse and bashing is a more niche and often darker take on the series, so it's not as common.
In some Transformers fanfiction involving an 'abused Harry Potter' concept, it might show Harry being out of his familiar wizarding world and facing new forms of hardship. For example, he could be bullied by certain Autobots or Decepticons who don't understand his human - wizard nature. This can be a way to explore his character's resilience in a completely different and often harsher environment than Hogwarts.
One can start by looking on popular fanfiction websites like Fanfiction.net or Archive of Our Own (AO3). On Fanfiction.net, you can use the search bar and type in relevant keywords such as 'abused Slytherin Harry Potter'. AO3 also has a great search function. You might have to filter through a lot of results, but you're likely to find some interesting stories. Some stories may focus on a Slytherin character, perhaps Draco Malfoy, who is abused in some way and how Harry Potter might be involved in the situation, either as an ally or in a more complex relationship within the Hogwarts' setting.
One consequence could be a negative impact on the fan community. It might drive away fans who are uncomfortable with such extreme interpretations. For example, if the fanfiction contains very dark and out - of - character portrayals of beloved characters, it can create a sense of unease among fans who prefer more positive and in - line with the original spirit stories.
There are indeed some Harry Potter fanfictions that might be considered 'abused'. In the world of fanfiction, since it is not as strictly regulated as the official works, some authors may explore very dark and disturbing concepts. This includes situations of abuse within the Harry Potter universe. It's a complex issue because on one hand, it's an expression of creativity, but on the other hand, it can be very off - putting and against the positive values that the original Harry Potter series promotes. It can also make the reading experience uncomfortable for many fans who expect a more positive and in - spirit - of - the - original exploration in fanfiction.
Another character could be Neville Longbottom. In some fanfictions, Neville is neglected by his family not just because they think he's not as magically talented as they hoped, but they actively try to suppress his magic. This can lead to Neville having a more difficult time at Hogwarts initially as he has to overcome both the lack of support from his family and his own self - doubt.
Fanfiction often varies greatly. In some 'Harry Potter is abused' fanfictions, it might show Harry being mistreated by the Dursleys in more extreme ways than in the original books. For example, he could be physically abused more frequently or have his magic suppressed in cruel ways. However, such content can be quite dark and deviate from the original spirit of the series.
