Project File: Should Have Been – By Mykki

I have a vague outline and a couple of zero drafts for this piece, so I’m not going in blind. Do I have an ending? Nope, so I’m winging that part.

Most of the warnings, in my opinion, refer to the canonical Harry Potter world, and while they may change, I’d take them as fact. But if you need a breakdown of some of them, read on: Major Character Death at this moment refers to time travel; technically, everyone dies… yet a few other prominent characters may not survive in the alternate universe.

The Abuse-Child and Discussion-Child Abuse are going to be referenced for both sets of Harry, Draco, and the rest of the members of the Black family.

The kidnapping is directly related to ‘little’ Harry at this point, as his placement with his Aunt is illegal.

As for Character Bashing, Dumbledore is my go-to, as always. I can’t be nice to the man in any universe I write, and I doff my hat to those who can. There may also be some directed-to-select Weasleys, most of which are related to the alternate universe, though Molly and possibly Arthur may be affected in the new ‘verse. As of right now, Remus is an unknown, but that’s mostly because I haven’t gotten to his character’s involvement in anything I’ve plotted out.
