Hermione's already - strong - willed personality could become even more resolute as she takes on the role of Harry's wife. She might be more assertive in protecting Harry and their relationship. Harry, on the other hand, could grow in his confidence, especially with Hermione by his side constantly supporting him. Their marriage could also make them more empathetic towards each other's past traumas.
Their relationship might start with them being comrades in arms. After the war, they would have more time to really talk and understand each other on a deeper level. This would lead to romantic feelings.
One possible plot could be that after the war, Harry and Hermione realize they have a deep bond that goes beyond friendship. They start to rebuild Hogwarts together and in the process, their feelings grow. They get married in a small ceremony at Hogwarts with their closest friends in attendance.
There could be. Fanfiction often takes canon and twists it in unexpected ways. But this particular scenario is quite controversial as it changes the essence of the characters' relationships. A well - written one would have to do a lot of groundwork to make it believable. It might involve some sort of dark magic influence on Harry or a very strange set of events that make him think marrying Hermione is the only solution to a big problem. But generally, it's not a common or easy - to - accept plot in the 'Harry Potter' fanfiction world.
In a 'Harry forces Hermione to marry him' fanfiction, there could be a number of reasons. It could be that he has lost his mind due to some traumatic event, like seeing too many friends die. This could make him cling to Hermione in an extreme way and think that marriage is the solution to keep her close. Also, there might be some sort of political conspiracy in the wizarding world. Maybe there's a group that wants to control the power that Harry and Hermione together could potentially have, and they manipulate Harry into believing he has to marry her for the safety of the wizarding community.
Some of their friends might think it's a strange situation. Luna could see it as a very interesting and magical development, believing that there must be some deeper, cosmic reason for it. Seamus and Dean might be a bit skeptical at first but would warm up to the idea as they see Harry and Hermione making the best of the situation. The Weasley family as a whole would probably have a mix of reactions, from Molly's motherly concern to Fred and George's attempts to find the humor in it.
At first, they might be very cautious, always on edge about being discovered. But as time passes, they could become more comfortable with their secret. Their relationship could deepen as they share this big secret only between them.
One interesting plot twist could be that they discover a hidden prophecy that states their union is the key to saving the wizarding world from a new, unknown threat. So, despite their initial resistance, they start to work together to fulfill this prophecy. Another could be that a powerful dark wizard has cast a spell on them, but as they try to break it, they actually start to understand each other better and form a real bond.
Over time, if she couldn't immediately escape, Hermione would try to influence the Death Eater. She would use her knowledge and strong moral compass to show him the error of his ways. She might start by having debates with him about the Dark Arts and the ideology of the Death Eaters, hoping to make him see the light.
Hermione would face a great deal of prejudice from the pure - blood society. Since she is Muggle - born, many in the wizarding world, especially those in the Malfoy's social circle, would look down on her. She would also have to deal with Draco's own internalized prejudices. He has been taught to think of Muggle - borns as inferior, and Hermione would have to work hard to change his view. Another challenge would be maintaining her own identity. The Malfoy family has certain expectations and a way of life, and Hermione would have to find a way to be true to herself while also fitting into this new family dynamic.
