History FanFic / StrangeAndInvisibleHistory

Basically it’s Literature/HarryPotter [[XMeetsY meets]] ASongOfIceAndFire.

** Desmond Feathering/[[spoiler:Alastor Moody]]is this. Played with, in that he is aromantic,but sometimes has sex with his wife [[spoiler:Hetty]] to give her the child she wants so desperately. He finds it neither pleasant or unpleasant, but simply something he does to please someone he cares about.

** Rodolphus is this trope incarnate. He's affectionate, loves to tease and joke, and is the best torturer in Europe. He's like Ward Clever if Ward Clever had a side-line involving red hot pinchers.

''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6723584/1/Strange_and_Invisible_History Strange and Invisble History]]'' by Madea's Rage is a [[DeconstructionFic deconstruction]] of the [[FandomSpecificPlot “Hermione is really a pureblood”]] fics. At the end of ''HarryPotter and the Philosopher’s Stone,'' Voldemort possesses Harry, the Death Eaters take over and Hermione turns out to be the long lost daughter of Bellatrix and Rodolphus Lestrange. War, politics and [[ArrangedMarriage arranged marriages]] ensue.

Basically it’s HarryPotter [[XMeetsY meets]] ASongOfIceAndFire.

** PlayedWith by [[spoiler: the Death Eaters. They regret serving Voldemort, not their treatment of muggleborns.]]

* BecomingTheMask:[[spoiler:Emmeline eventually becomes Eugenia.]]

-->'You know what the difference between you and them is,[[spoiler:Papa]]? THEY FUCKING CAME AND GOT THEIR CHILDREN!'

* KnifeNut: Scabior. He often uses his knife in preference to his wand, and greatly enjoys what he calls the 'wet-work'.

* GroinAttack: Poor Mc Nair gets this. From Bellatrix Lestrange. ''Twice.''

* {{Anti-Hero}}: Most of the protagonists do seriously dodgy things.

* {{Adult Child}}: Barty, due to [[spoiler: permanent, irreversible brain damage from having broken mentally in Azkaban, and then living under Imperius for ten years]]

* LadyOfWar: Hermione and to a lesser extent, Narcissa.

* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Cunegarde, Erasmus, Martin and Zhivka.]]

** [[spoiler: Rabastan Lestrange]] is this. He's a feared warrior with zero interest in anything even slightly sterotypical, dresses terribly and happens to like men. {{Justified}}, in that the sexual politics of the Wizarding world are very different.

** Bellatrix, in a serious way. She explictly gets a sexual thrill from combat, and freely admits she'd rather fight than do almost anything else.

** Sirius towards [[spoiler:Sose Tamm. Mainly because she'd be terrified.]]

** Scabior is a unsettlingly jovial psycho for hire who helps Rodolphus interrogate 'guests', kills [[spoiler: his own father]] and really, really loves his knife. He also deeply cares about those under his charge, tries his hardest to comfort [[spoiler: Hermione]] after things go downhill and declares that he's Lestrange's man and always will be because Rodolphus is nice to him.

** Barty sees himself as this to [[spoiler: Edric]]. It becomes offical when [[spoiler: Rabastan and Eugenia ask him to go into exile with their son and help raise him in their stead]]. There are also shades of this in his relationship with [[spoiler: Draco]].

* PerfectlyArrangedMarriage: [[spoiler: Hermione and Krum.]]

** Snape's finds out that Peter is still alive. Cool. Snape finds out that Peter betrayed the Potters and is responsible for [[spoiler: Lily's death]]. Snape starts smiling and contemplating killing Peter when he stops being useful.

** Hermione becomes a Type One due to her fears of being abandoned. Deconstructed, in that the people about her knows she's this and worry about her constantly because of it. Her slowly growing willingness to permit her Wizarding family to see her less than totally cheerful and smiling is a major point of character development, as she comes to believe that they love her and won't abandon her.

** Type three. There are adults, but the Lord Protector and Vicereine prefer to be surrounded by people they know personally and trust, most of whom are [[spoiler: friends from school]]. Aside from the Minister of Magic and Lord Paramount of the Conclave, pretty much literally every other named position is filled by someone under twenty. Visitors find it incredibly creepy.

** 'Take her away, [[spoiler: Lucius]], we never could abide the snivelling of women.'

** Sirius towards [[spoiler:Sose Tamm.Mainly because she'd be terrified.]]

-->'You know what the difference between you and them is,[[spoiler:Papa]]? THEY FUCKING CAME AND GOT THEIR children!'

* {{Friend to All Children}}: Pureblood culture expects this of everyone, and for people who don't to pay the ideal lipservice. Death Eaters actively working against the Lestranges and Malfoys are nonetheless genuinely excited about getting to play with [[spoiler: Rabastan's son with Emmeline/Eugenia, Edric]], and offended when they won't bring him down to see them.

** Sirius, times a million. He gleefully teases Snape about his many conquests (and openly uses the money Snape gives him to help him spy to hire prostitutes), but takes care to treat the women well, and when he gets into a relationship with [[spoiler: Emmeline/Eugenia]], he's faithful to her.

** Hideously, violently deconstructed. By the end of SIH, the characters are essentially understood to be adults in teenage bodies, and have terrible mental and emotional scars from having fought in multiple conflicts, killed people and [[spoiler: united Bulgaria]]. The adults about them are aware of it happening but can't do anything to stop it.

** Nagini [[spoiler: for Hetty.]]

* {{Cold Sniper}}:
** Rodolphus is revealed to be this. When he fights, everything goes(literally) 'cold', and he feels like he's watching from a long way away.
** [[spoiler:Hermione]] is potentially becoming this. At one point, she calmly kills [[spoiler: an auror sent to kill them]] and her mien never changes.

* ShipperOnDeck: Anu ships Snape and his Nene.
