In some fanfictions, the Malfoys are good because they are given a chance to see the bigger picture. They understand that Voldemort's reign would bring destruction not only to the wizarding world but also to their own family's future. So, they choose to side with the forces of good to prevent this catastrophe.
Family bonds can also play a role. If the Malfoys, especially Narcissa, see that Voldemort's actions are endangering Draco, they might turn against the Dark Lord. Their love for their family member can override their loyalty to the Dark side, making them 'good' in the context of the fanfiction.
In Harry Potter fanfiction, the Malfoys are often portrayed in a more complex and sometimes positive light. Some fanfictions might explore Draco Malfoy's struggle between his family's beliefs and his own emerging sense of right and wrong. He could be shown as having a change of heart, perhaps influenced by his interactions with Harry and his friends. This gives a new dimension to his character that we don't fully see in the original books.
One example of 'good Malfoys' in fanfiction could be a scenario where Draco Malfoy has a change of heart early on. He might start to question the pure - blood ideology his family has instilled in him. In some fanfictions, he could secretly help Harry Potter and his friends. This could be due to a growing sense of morality within him, seeing the unjust actions of the Death Eaters.
In fanfiction, their relationship can be complex. Sometimes they might be forced to work together against a common dark threat. For example, in some stories, a new dark wizard arises who is more powerful than Voldemort, and both Harry Potter and the Malfoys have to put aside their differences to stop this new evil. It could also involve a change in Draco Malfoy's character, where he starts to see Harry in a different light and they form an uneasy alliance.
One interesting portrayal is when Draco is made into a reluctant ally of Harry. In some fanfictions, he realizes the error of his ways early on and starts to secretly help Harry and his friends. This is a departure from his antagonistic role in the books.
Well, one possibility is that Harry would grow up with a very different set of values. The Malfoys are known for their pure - blood supremacist views. Harry might initially be influenced by this but then could have an internal struggle as he discovers his own true nature and the importance of equality. He could also learn different types of magic from the Malfoy family's traditions, which might make him a more complex and different wizard compared to the one we know from the original series.
Well, it could be a total chaos. Harry's values are so different from the Malfoys'. He might constantly clash with Draco and Lucius. But on the other hand, it could also lead to some interesting character developments. Maybe Harry could gradually change the Malfoys' views on Muggle - borns over time.
Well, one possibility is that Harry would grow up with a very different set of values. The Malfoys are known for their pure - blood supremacist views. But perhaps, deep down, Harry could influence them to be a bit more accepting. He might learn dark magic quicker than in the original story, but also struggle with his own sense of right and wrong as the Malfoy values clash with what he feels inside.
It would likely be a very different story. Harry might grow up with the pure - blood supremacist views of the Malfoys. He could be trained in dark magic - adjacent skills. His relationships would be flipped, for example, he might be enemies with Ron and Hermione who are seen as 'blood traitors' by the Malfoys.
A 'Harry Potter Malfoys trial' fanfiction could have many twists. For example, the evidence against the Malfoys might be fabricated by some who want to take over their wealth and status. The Malfoys could then fight back, with Draco using his intelligence to prove their innocence. Hermione might be involved as a legal advisor of sorts, using her knowledge of wizarding law. And Harry could be conflicted, as he has his own history with the Malfoys but also believes in justice. The trial could also expose the dark underbelly of the wizarding legal system, with corruption and bias playing a role.
One interesting plotline could be how Harry adjusts to the Malfoy family's pure - blood traditions while still holding onto his own values. For example, he might struggle with the Malfoys' views on Muggle - borns. Another could be his relationship with Draco Malfoy. Instead of being rivals, they could become brothers in a sense, and their dynamic would change completely, leading to new adventures at Hogwarts together.
