Edit 5-14-15 So 3+ years later, the only comments this post is getting are spam comments. I've changed the settings to screen all comments to discourage that. If you leave a legit comment, I will unscreen it. Thanks, all. I had a great time.

Not the OP, but I can see it happening because he got a glimpse of what it could be like via the dreams/whatever, and thus works to recreate it. Alternately, it could be that he takes control because he saw that he'd taken control. A self-fulfilling prophesy, so to say.

New Anon:

I think this is super interesting, but also really don't see John (especially young John) as the Going To Listen To What A Prophecy Says type. More the Fuck You It's My Own Life type. Although it would certainly be an interesting conflict! Accidentally taking over might be more his-Harry's style, especially if Any Anonthor wanted to keep Harry more IC.

To add my two cents in:

Vargassi is a shit-head and a dangerous one.

If John is helping Harry out, keeping him away from the Wardens and all, than he probably wouldn't be too happy to stay in a city with a man like that in charge.

Or, possibly: Harry gets hurt, would end up like Amanda Beckitt if his magic hadn't helped him out. Johnny vows 'never again'.

I can definitely see John's growing social awareness (not that he's that socially aware in canon, bless his heart) eventually decided that Vargassi was Bad For His City, although I do imagine it might take some time or a catalyst. That said, I'm super curious to how he'd keep Harry away from Wardens; if they were properly motivated, and I imagine they would be, because for all they know, unknown apprentice a has gone warlock (which, technically, he had) and just killed one of their own. Add to that the addictive nature of black magic, Harry not knowing the laws, and the really D: D: D: places Harry (and John) could end up in the Council doesn't find him.

Well, Harry has Bob and Bob can tell him a few tricks on how to avoid the Council and the Warden I think.

Wow, a Bob fresh from the hands of two warlocks, a Harry violently spinning into the land of black magic and irredemption, and John's trying to hold on to them all with his shaky relative moral standing. This AU just got dark.

... I'm already posting what looks to be a monster wip-fill ...

... but this one is calling to me, if we can brainstorm it a little more.

I can see Harry not being a warlock like Justin was if only because he's going to reject everything Justin did or liked after what went through him.

But he would undoubtedly be a warlock and unaware of the laws of magic, which means he won't be as troubled by doing the kind of things he thinks may help John out (Reading in his enemies minds? Killing through magic?) as he would be in canon.

Also they would have the Leanasidhe on their asses and I'm sure that would lead Harry and John both to search about loopholes and lawyer speak (Hendricks would be a huge asset about that)

Yeah, Harry doesn't really know too much of Justin's plans (although his subconscious obviously had a clearer understand of thrall than he would admit to), but he definitely wouldn't want to model his behaviour on him! But he'd already have killed, and transforming others is one of those go-to non-magic mudane things that John might think of and ask Harry to do. Not to mention the urge to go back in time and fix it. Oh dear.

(And considering they'd be starting in Iowa, I think the travelling-to-Chicago part of the story could be fascinating.)

I think that John would be smart enough to avoid the 'going back in time' shtick ... or if he isn't Hendricks can talk them out of it by citing paradoxes and everything (and Bob can add his two cents in about it being a bad idea, better avoid it as much as possible).

Though transforming others ... yeah that they would.

I had a vision of a Leanasidhe-like Harry, with a few really vicious dogs protecting their property... who are former enemies of John. *shudders*

*drools*

And I'm sure Madame Leanansidhe approves most thoroughly.

Hee she would, since it's her footsteps her godson is following into.

I can see John being the corteous one, having the meeting with Lea, while Harry plays with the hounds, throwing the frisbee and giving them sausages (and Hendricks watches on, stone-faced)
