The Development of Harry Potter

[harryjamespotter]

Harry James Potter

How much have you changed?

We all know Harry Potter - or at least, we all know the Harry we read about in the books. This Harry is very much the same, yet worlds different all at once. He's faced things our book Harry never did, and has already begun to change. This is more than a thread tracker - this is a development page, so that as the site grows on, we can follow Harry and see just how much he, too, has grown.

Interesting Additions to Harry's Initial Character

• Canonly, we know Harry was very neglected as a child, and pushed away whenever he sought comfort. As such, our Harry has a difficult time initiating hugs and physical contact but enjoys it when someone else starts it for him.

• Canonly, we know Harry was almost sorted into Slytherin. What it there was more than just Voldemort's horcrux influencing that decision, and what if Harry reflected on it a bit? Our Harry is a bit more Slytherin-friendly than usually portrayed.

• COMING SOON!

Falling on a childhood habit, Harry went to the library to find a refuge - and found a very old Muggle book. This book changed his outlook on things, and he's started taking his education very seriously - but Ron doesn't know that, and is having a hard time with his Transfiguration essay. So its time to take a break from the books, and go fly - Hermione won't mind, surely. COMPLETE

Harry's glad to fly for any reason, but he can tell his mate needs a confidence boost today. The bet is on, and the Quaffle's ready - who'll win? ONGOING

He's in the library, preparing to overwhelm Snape with the fact that, yeah, I do have a brain, when Hermione catches him. Its time to tell the truth, but will he tell her about the book that started it all? ONGOING

Harry is having a really, really bad day. One might go so far as to say he is downright angsty. Will Luna's brand of gay wisdom bring him out of his dark little hole? ONGOING

Having almost been sorted there himself, Harry has become much more receptive to this idea as of late, and meeting Astoria is the starting point to a very unique relationship. COMPLETE A Welcoming of All The second stage of Harry's friendship with Astoria comes to light as the Boy Who Lived escorts a younger girl to Dumbledore's impromptu ball. Not just any younger girl - but a Slytherin. Ron and Hermione aren't taking it incredibly well just yet, but time has yet to tell. ONGOING

When a familiar Slytherin catches him at it, the two end up having a conversation of their own. Could Harry find himself respecting yet another Slytherin - and one close to Malfoy, no less? ONGOING

The Army has not been formed yet, but its grassroots are born when Harry decides he has had enough of Umbridge, and calls together a meeting of the greatest minds of Hogwarts - or at least, the greatest pranksters. Fred and George Weasley and their friends Lee Jordan and Alicia Spinnet are invited, but Neville Longbottom, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley crash into the party as well. Plans are put together - its time to get Umbridge back. The rebellion is beginning. ONGOING
