The theme of forgiveness is also quite prevalent. Given their history of animosity at Hogwarts, fanfics often show how they come to forgive each other for past wrongs. And then there's the theme of self - discovery. Through their interactions, both Malfoy and Harry learn more about themselves, like in 'The Journey Within: Malfoy and Harry' where they both grow as characters.
One common theme is redemption. Many fanfics focus on Malfoy's journey towards redemption and how Harry plays a part in it. Another theme is friendship. Despite their differences, the idea of them becoming friends or at least having a more positive relationship is explored often.
Enemies - to - lovers is also quite common. The idea that their initial hatred could turn into romantic feelings over time. And there's also the theme of self - discovery. They both learn more about themselves through their interactions with each other, like Malfoy realizing his family's values might not be all he wants to uphold, and Harry understanding that not all Slytherins are bad.
One common theme is the exploration of a different relationship dynamic. Since Harry is female, the power balance and the nature of the connection with Malfoy can be quite different from the original series. Another theme is the breaking of house barriers.

Redemption is another theme. Some fics might explore the idea of the Malfoys being redeemed through their relationship with Harry, or vice versa. And there's always the theme of magic, as new magical elements are often introduced to explain the connection between Harry and the Malfoys.

A frequent theme is the exploration of hidden depths. Hermione discovers that there's more to Malfoy than his haughty exterior. Maybe he has a soft side that he only shows to her.
