One interesting plotline could be an alternate universe where Harry and Voldemort have to team up against a greater evil. This flips the traditional dynamic on its head.
Hermione is often a very popular character. She's known for her intelligence and resourcefulness, and in fanfiction, she might come up with new spells or strategies to help Harry in his fight against Voldemort.
One great Snape vs Voldemort fanfiction is 'The Dark Mark's Secret'. It delves into Snape's complex relationship with Voldemort. Snape is constantly in a precarious position, having to play the double agent. The story shows how he uses his wits against Voldemort's brute power. Another one is 'Snape's Hidden Alliances'. It focuses on how Snape manages to outmaneuver Voldemort in some crucial situations. The characterizations are really well - done in both of these, making them engaging reads.
In this fanfiction, it could be that Voldemort has a premonition. He sees that if Harry Potter dies, it will lead to a series of disasters that will also destroy his own plans. So, in order to preserve the balance or to keep his long - term goals intact, he saves Harry. For example, if Harry's death causes an uncontrollable chaos in the wizarding world, Voldemort's rule over the dark forces might be disrupted. So he steps in to save Harry.
The main thing that makes Snape vs Voldemort fanfiction interesting is the contrast between the two characters. Snape is complex, with his own motives and a hidden side. Voldemort is pure evil. So when they interact, there are always mind games and power plays. For example, Snape has to constantly deceive Voldemort, and the tension this creates is exciting.
Well, in a fanfiction, a plotline could be that Percy Jackson is on a quest and somehow crosses paths with Voldemort. Voldemort senses Percy's power and wants to study it. Percy, not knowing much about the wizarding world, initially mistakes Voldemort for just another monster. As they interact more, they realize that their worlds are more intertwined than they thought. Another plot could involve a powerful artifact that both of them are after. The artifact has the power to change the balance of both their worlds. So they are in a race against each other to get it, but along the way, they start to understand each other's motives and might even consider working together to keep the artifact out of the wrong hands.
Their interaction would be intense. Merlin, being from a different era and having a different view of magic, would likely be appalled by Voldemort's use of dark magic. Voldemort, on the other hand, would probably see Merlin as a threat to his power. Merlin might try to reason with Voldemort at first, but when he realizes that Voldemort is beyond redemption, he would use his magic to stop him.
It's possible. In the realm of fanfiction, the imagination knows no bounds. Writers might come up with such a scenario for various reasons, perhaps to explore a different side of the characters' relationships. But it's not a common or mainstream concept within the Harry Potter fanfiction community, as it goes against the typical character dynamics we expect from the series.
In many fanfictions, Harry Potter squinting at Voldemort could be a sign of intense focus. It might be that Harry is trying to read Voldemort's next move, or perhaps he's looking for some sign of weakness. For example, in some stories, Harry's squinting could be related to his newfound magical abilities that he's using to analyze Voldemort's magic signature.
Voldemort was born Tom Marvolo Riddle. His mother, Merope Gaunt, used a love potion on his father, Tom Riddle Sr. When the potion's effect wore off and his father abandoned them, his mother died soon after giving birth. Tom grew up in an orphanage. He was a very intelligent yet troubled child. He discovered his magical abilities early on and was able to manipulate those around him. His dark path began as he delved deeper into the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, influenced by his Slytherin heritage and his own thirst for power.
