One key theme could be the exploration of an unlikely relationship. Hermione and Snape have very different personalities and positions within the Hogwarts world. In such a fanfic, the theme of breaking social and age barriers might be prominent. Another theme could be self - discovery for both characters. Hermione might discover a different side of herself when involved with Snape, and Snape could find new aspects of his own humanity through their relationship. Also, the theme of redemption might play a part. Snape has a complex past, and his relationship with Hermione could be a path towards some form of redemption in the eyes of the writer.
Hermione could be redefined as a character with a new sense of courage. Taking on a relationship with Snape, which is considered unconventional, shows a different kind of bravery. Snape's character is redefined by his ability to open up. He is forced to let go of his guarded nature when dealing with Hermione. Their relationship in the fanfic also redefines their roles. Hermione is no longer just a student, and Snape is no longer just a teacher, but they become two individuals with a unique emotional bond that goes beyond their traditional Hogwarts identities.
One possible scenario in such a fanfic could be that during detention, Snape makes Hermione clean the potions classroom. At first, Hermione is indignant but as she cleans, she discovers some old potions notes that Snape had written as a student. This leads to an unexpected conversation between them about the complexity of potions. Snape is initially cold but gradually warms up as he realizes Hermione's genuine interest in the subject.
Maybe in the fanfic, Snape gives Hermione detention for accidentally disrupting his class. But instead of a typical punishment, he assigns her to help him organize his personal library of dark arts books. As they work together, Hermione begins to understand Snape's complex past and Snape starts to see Hermione in a new light, beyond just being a know - it - all Gryffindor.
One great Snape Hermione fanfic is 'The Tapestry of Time'. It weaves a complex story where Snape and Hermione are forced to work together on a time - sensitive magical project. Their relationship develops gradually from mutual suspicion to a grudging respect and eventually something more. The characterizations are really well - done, staying true to their canon personalities.
Yes, there are. Some fanfictions focus more on the emotional bond between Snape and Hermione rather than any inappropriate content. For example, 'The Platonic Bond' explores their relationship in a very innocent and platonic way. It's about mutual respect and understanding that develops between them.
There is 'A Different Kind of Magic'. This fanfiction delves deep into the idea of Snape and Hermione's connection. It has a lot of emotional depth, and the author does a great job of building a believable relationship between the two. It also features some interesting twists on the original Potterverse concepts.
Well, first of all, the Snape - Hermione relationship in this kind of fanfiction is quite forced. In the original books, Snape is a teacher and Hermione is a student, and there is no indication of such romantic feelings. Moreover, the 'lemon' aspect is not only against the family - friendly nature of the 'Harry Potter' franchise but also can make the story seem more like a cheap thrill rather than a well - crafted piece of fanfiction.
A theme of friendship is also great. Hermione could be the one to break through Snape's cold exterior and they become unlikely friends. They could exchange books, discuss magical theories, and help each other grow. Also, a theme of them being part of a team in a magical competition can be interesting. They would have to rely on each other's strengths to succeed.
Snape might initially be taken aback. He's used to students being intimidated by him, so Hermione's outburst could shock him into momentary silence. Then he might retaliate with his usual sarcasm, trying to put her in her place.
