Well, it could be. Since the Dark Arts in the Potter universe are generally bad things like curses and black magic. Harry has always been on the side of good, fighting Voldemort and his Death Eaters who use the Dark Arts. So for him to like Dark Arts fanfiction might make some people think it goes against his nature. But on the other hand, fanfiction often explores different aspects of characters, so it might just be an interesting and perhaps controversial exploration.
One implication could be a change in how fans perceive his character. He has always been a champion against the Dark Arts, so this would seem contradictory. It might also lead to a change in the way fanfiction writers approach writing about him, perhaps exploring more morally grey areas.
The Dark Arts in Harry Potter fanfiction are fascinating as they can change the whole dynamic of the story. They can create new villains or give old characters a darker side. Fanfiction authors might use the Dark Arts to create alternate storylines where Hogwarts is in more danger than ever. It gives a chance to see how different characters would react to a more prominent and menacing presence of Dark Magic.
In some fanfiction, the Dark Arts are shown as a misunderstood area of magic. The authors may present characters who believe that the Dark Arts can be used for good if controlled properly, which challenges the traditional view in the original series.
It's a complex issue. While the use of the Dark Arts by Harry Potter in fanfiction might seem unethical at first glance, it could be used to develop a more in - depth character study. For example, if a writer wants to explore how Harry could be corrupted or what would happen if he were pushed to the brink. But still, in the context of the original series, the Dark Arts are bad, and Harry using them would be a departure from his character's essence. So, in general, it's not really ethical.
Bellatrix Lestrange could be a potential focus as a dark arts master in fanfiction. She already has a deep knowledge of the dark arts in the original series. Fanfiction could explore her even more, perhaps showing her training others in the dark arts in a more in - depth way.
It's fairly common. Fanfiction writers like to explore the 'what - if' scenarios. Since Harry Potter is a powerful wizard, exploring his use of dark arts adds an interesting twist to the story.
Sure, there could be such fanfiction. In fan - created stories, authors can play around with different ideas. But it's a very different take from the canonical 'Harry Potter'. Harry is usually portrayed as a hero who opposes Voldemort and all things related to the dark arts. If there are fanfictions where he practices the dark arts, they might explore how his relationships with his friends like Ron and Hermione would change. Also, it could show how the wizarding world as a whole would react to Harry turning to the dark side, which is a huge departure from the original story.
There is likely some 'Harry Potter loves the Dark Arts' fanfiction. Some might depict Harry being curious about the Dark Arts due to his difficult life. For example, he could be frustrated with the limitations of the 'good' magic he's been taught and start to explore the more dangerous and forbidden Dark Arts. But these are often non - canon interpretations.
Personally, I'm a bit hesitant about it. While the concept of a 'dark arts prodigy' Harry Potter in fanfiction can be exciting, it could also change the essence of the character. Harry in the original series is a hero who stands against the dark arts. But if the fanfiction is well - written and manages to balance this new concept with the core values of the Potterverse, it could be a great read.
