not a fan of the twinkification of his character BUT i absolutely think draco would listen to hyperpop (if somehow given the opportunity) specifically in 6th year specifically at the lowest points of his life, like:
[having a crying, screaming mental breakdown in the Room of Hidden Things with Faster n Harder playing in the bg]
draco, reassuring himself through tears: yeah i'm still a bad bitch [continues hysterically sobbing]
reading this ask absolutely clocked me bc it basically exactly mirrors my thoughts and unironically what im working at in my current wip fic
cept in this case the anti-racism goop is slow-acting and in the form of voldemort moving in LMAO
draco watching a blood-purist megalomaniac torture his father in front of him/have his snake swallow someone whole on his dinning room table, while desperately trying not to throw up: maybe. 😨 maybe all life inherently has value 😨
ron stumbling in much later on him covered in (metaphorical) goop having a hysterical breakdown in the bathroom: oh! that's not . . . what is going on 🙂
they'd have the best convos abt muggles bc they both have extremely minimal first hand experience so it's always "he said this" and "she told me about this" and "i saw an aeroplane once‼️ it was huuge‼️" they are so cute
Im one of those people who hate canon malfoy for being a racist asshole, but i hink hes funny as a character if that makes sense? Like fuck the guy, but i think if we just dumped him in anti-fantasy racism goo and then let him sit there for a while that he would be a really funny character. I do hate how the fandom has made him all serious and mysterious, like you said. Hes such a little dramatic whiny little asshole and if you want to stan him, then you have to embrcae that part of him. The guy got rejected by some kid he met on a train and decided to hate him for the rest of enternity and suceeded. Hes a pathetic theater kid with a flair for dramatics who has two goons he constantly keeps around him at all times. Dont just overlook that, guys (the malfoy fans).
I agree! Malfoy can be a really fun character to work with especially once he can be somewhat separated from his bigotry. Not entirely, but I guess making him slightly more open minded & less extreme in his beliefs, cause it can be fun to have him be taught things too
It’s been a while since I’ve read a fic where Malfoy was really that involved but if you like Malfoy, the trio, AND the marauders the fic Marauders of the Mind is on fanfic.net and I think it’s really fun. I have some issues with it like the marauders aren’t their canon selves, they’re pretty exaggerated / ooc, but it has a lot of good Harry & Malfoy characterization I think!

me whenever ron's unnecessarily mean to some rando (never his friends, bc he's loyal like that) for fun: she just wanna party [shrugs] aint nothin wrong with that

(This is, obviously, very condensed. Also, feudalism looked different in different European nations. Here, I’m focusing more on Britain. It wasn’t the first place to introduce modern capitalism but is a big part of the story.)
