Prompts

Prompts

• Harry goes to his school reunion and meets all his old teachers, classmates, etc. They’re all stunned by his appearance (especially since the last time they’d seen him he’d been a scrawny, short 10-year-old.) They’re even more surprised when he introduces his wife – Hermione.
  
  

• Harry and Hermione have been in a secret relationship for a while. However, their friends have recently been dropping hints, saying that the pair would make a good couple. Finding it hilarious, they come up with an elaborate plan to reveal their relationship.
  
  

• The morning after Voldemort's defeat, Harry - no longer having the Horcrux to inhibit him - goes through his magical maturity. It's induced by him and Hermione finally admitting their true feelings towards one another and sharing their first kiss. The magic causes them to fall unconscious. When they wake up the next morning, they are completely confused as to what had happened, but Hermione figures it out and explains it to him - all while struggling not to look at the physical changes the magical maturity had done to him. Hermione knew that she'd have to claim him publicly, and soon, lest the female population of Hogwarts try to lay their hand on him…
  
  

• Just after sharing their first kiss, Harry and Hermione are both sent back in time to the beginning of Fourth Year. They are sent back with all the knowledge of the future, however, they are unaware of the other’s time travel, believing that they are still their fourth-year selves. How will this change the future?
  
  

• Barbie: Princess Charm School AU: Dumbledore makes everyone believe that Harry died alongside his parents that Halloween. He puts a glamour spell on him that will only break when Harry comes into contact with the royal heir's crown, and leaves him on the doorstep of a Muggle couple named Hannah and Nicholas Williams. The only thing he is left with is a note saying his name is Harry.
  
  

• Jily Lives AU: James is the Head of the DMLE and Harry is an Auror. James is busy trying to discover the leader of the underground faction against Voldemort who is having Death Eaters killed. Harry, meanwhile, is scrambling not to be caught, as he is the man his father is after. However, it all begins to unravel when James hears of the leader's second-in-command and manages to catch them. They turn out to be his son's girlfriend - Hermione. Things become even more complicated when Harry rushes in to rescue her, thereby exposing himself in the process.
  
  

• Harry is a secret agent for the wizarding sector of MI6. While on an undercover assignment in America, he meets the muggleborn witch Hermione Granger and falls head-over-heels for her. However, she only knows him by his undercover identity. How will she react once the truth is revealed? Will their love survive the test?
  Harry's undercover identity would be James Marsh. When he first introduces himself to Hermione, she says;
  "Not Joe Marsh?"
  "What?"
  Hermione rolls her eyes, "It's from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. The main character's name is Joe Marsh."
  
  

• Death and Fate have a wager. Death loses if Harry and Hermione get married, and they then have to bring back the seven people Harry misses most. If Fate loses, then Death gets to change the destiny of seven people Fate had marked. However, Death should have realised it's a bad bet to make a wager with Fate…
  
  

• Fred and George invent the magical version of mood rings. When Harry and Hermione each try one on, the rings show them to be "In Love". Now their friends won't stop bothering them about it! And they each assume the other to be in love with someone who is not themselves. Will they eventually admit their true feelings to one another?
  
  

• The summer before fifth year, Harry decides he needs a hobby to get his mind off the memories of the graveyard. While doing some research he discovers one that ends up suiting him perfectly - archery. There's a club in Little Whinging that he goes to, and he ends up making friends with some of the members there. They encourage him in his new pursuit, and give him advice. He begins working out every morning, and his practice with the bow helps him to build muscle. Being able to eat at the club also improves his health, so by the time he's picked up to go to Grimmauld, he looks - and feels - like a whole new person. Delores Umbridge better be careful - Harry Potter is armed and dangerous!
  
  

• After Dumbledore's death, the Slytherins are lost - their head of house having fled with the de-facto leader of their group. They are gathered in their common room, discussing what to do next, when Harry Potter walks in and shakes things up.
  
  (AKA Harry is a Slytherin and has been hiding it for years. After Dumbledore's death, he finally lets the cat out of the bag, and who better to tell first than the Slytherins themselves?)
  
  

• Harry's mum was stolen as a baby and, unknowingly adopted by the Evans. She was really Arthur Weasley's younger sister, which makes Harry Ron's cousin. When Harry goes back to Gringotts after the war, he makes this discovery, but finds it hard to tell the Weasleys. How will they react when they find out?
  
  

• School Reunion - Hogwarts Style: After the battle of Hogwarts, Harry disappears from Wizarding Britain and Hermione follows a month later. At the same time, a new Lord Black shows up on the political scene and no one recognises him nor do they know how he came about the lordship.
  
  10 years later, Hogwarts hosts a reunion for the class of 1998. Everyone is shocked when Harry and Hermione show up unexpectedly, looking very different to how they remembered - Harry taller, broader stronger and even more handsome; Hermione also taller, more distinguished and strikingly beautiful. All anyone wants to know is just where they had been all those years? What had they been doing? And why had they chosen to return?

• No Voldemort! AU: The Potters were delighted to discover that their neighbours - Dan and Emma Granger - were expecting a daughter only a month or two after their baby was due. Their son Harry, was born at the end of that July and Hermione Granger was born just under 2 months later. The two grew up together, becoming closer and closer, and went to Hogwarts together. Eventually, the inevitable happened - Hermione fell for the boy next door.
  
  

• Modern Hogwarts AU: During fifth year, Hermione realises that the DA needs a pick-me-up to help cheer them up in the face of Umbridge’s rule. She recommends to Harry that they hold a karaoke night and he agrees. It’s announced a week beforehand, giving everyone a chance to prepare. When the night finally arrives, it turns out to be a lot of fun and everyone has a great time. The highlight, however, is Harry and Hermione singing a duet together, which has everyone placing bets on just when they will get together.
  
  

• Hermione and Harry get invited to Hermione’s family reunion. The pair, who are involved in a secret relationship, are rather reluctant to go, but ultimately make the decision to do so. While there, Harry discovers that the majority of Hermione’s family have a very poor opinion of her and does his best to correct them - even going so far as to reveal their relationship.
  
  

• The night before Harry receives his Hogwarts letter, he has a dream, detailing all the events of the books. He wakes up the next morning believing it to be just that - a dream - until the letter falls through the mail flap. Suddenly, it seemed more and more real, especially when things started happening the same way they had in the dream. Just how will Harry’s knowledge of what is to come affect the outcome? 

• No Voldemort AU: When Harry left for the Summer after 6th year, he was a rather handsome boy of average height and build. However, after 2 months away on a European charity tour with his parents and siblings, his appearance had changed rather drastically. He’d grown much taller and become more muscular as well as tanned. Overall, he had the majority of the female population at Hogwarts drooling at him. For Hermione, seeing him like that reawakened a crush she’d long left buried, having thought Harry would never notice her that way. But, perhaps, he was more interested in her than she knew. 

• After fifth year, tired of the Wizarding World’s hypocrisy towards him, Harry leaves to pursue his mundane education. 12 years later, having finished his education he became a barrister. One day, however, his past comes back to bite him in the form of a new case. Acting as the prosecutor in a murder case involving an unknown poison, he is disturbed one evening by none other than Hermione Granger, who’s been tasked with obliviating him as the defendant in the case is a wizard and the Ministry wants him tried in a magical court with Hermione acting as prosecutor. Now, forced to work together after years of separation, will they be able to rebuild their friendship, or will it develop into something more? 

• Harry gets bitten by a werewolf during the final battle. A few days later, he runs away from Hogwarts and Britain in general, fearful of his friends' and the public's reactions to the news. Years later, Hermione, who had been searching for him all that time, finally tracks him down. The fact that she found him the day before the full moon may or may not be a good thing…
  
  

• The Order of the Phoenix isn’t just an organisation created by Dumbledore - it’s an ancient group of highly-trained individuals, specifically chosen by their leader. The leader is chosen by the Ancient Phoenix himself. After Dumbledore’s funeral, Harry, having found himself alone, has Fawkes appear before him and initiate him as the new Leader of the Order.
  
  

• No magic! AU: Harry and Hermione are both contestants in a televised singing competition (The Voice or something similar) and are set against each other in a duel.  However, the sexual tension is so great between them that both the judges and the general public start actively trying to get them together.

• Harry and Hermione used to be best friends but, after the war, Harry became distant — behaving more like Malfoy would be expected to than himself. He broke Hermione's heart, as she had secretly fallen for him. 5 years later she returned only to find that Harry had changed since she'd last seen him. While he still acted as though he was God's gift to mankind, Hermione was able to tell that that's all it was - an act. But why? Why hide behind a facade of arrogance and nonchalance when she knew that wasn't who he truly was? It seemed as though he was hiding something and Hermione was determined to find out what. Will she discover Harry's secret? And will they be able to repair (or even further) their relationship?
  
  (In my mind, Harry's secretly become a secret agent/spy for MI5 or something similar, but it could be anything really. )

• Surviving the Killing Curse as a baby had more of an effect on Harry than he realised. However, these effects had been blocked by the Horcrux that had attached itself to him, but with Voldemort dead and the Horcrux gone, they came into full effect.  Just how did the Killing Curse influence his body, magic and mind? How would he be changed afterwards? For the better? Or the worst?
