In some fanfictions, when Draco insults a Gryffindor first - year, the older Gryffindors stand up for the young student. They might surround Draco in the hallway and give him a stern warning about his behavior. This not only showcases the Gryffindor loyalty but also their willingness to protect the weak.
Well, it shows that the Gryffindors won't tolerate the Slytherin's typical sneaky behavior, as represented by Draco. When they stand up to him, it's like a direct challenge to the Slytherin way of doing things. It heightens the rivalry as the Gryffindors are showing they won't be pushed around by the Slytherins.
One great example could be a fanfic where Draco as the Head of Slytherin tries to reform the house's image. He might introduce new rules that promote fairness and unity among the students, rather than just the pure - blood supremacy that Slytherin has been known for in the past.
Well, 'The Unlikely Hug' is a fanfiction that explores this scenario quite well. Draco and Harry are in a situation where they have to rely on each other, and in a moment of vulnerability, Draco hugs Harry. It's a very emotional and heart - warming read. There are also some that are part of a series, like in the 'New Beginnings' series where in one of the installments, Draco hugs Harry as a sign of their new - found friendship, which is a major development in their relationship considering their past as rivals.
Well, 'Malfoy's Recovery' is a fanfiction that features an OC healer. In this story, the healer has a unique magical ability that aids Draco in a way no one else could. It's really interesting to see how their relationship develops as she tries to heal him from the darkness of his past. There's also 'Healing Draco', a more straightforward one where the OC healer is simply determined to make Draco a better person through her healing skills, both medical and emotional.
There are fanfictions where Draco Malfoy, after the war, decides to learn more about dragons and ends up at Charlie Weasley's dragon sanctuary. In these stories, they start off as adversaries but slowly come to respect each other. For instance, Draco might initially be there to prove himself, but Charlie sees his potential and they begin to collaborate on new dragon - handling techniques.
One great example is 'A Chance Encounter'. In this fanfiction, the original character (OC) is a transfer student from a different wizarding school. The author does a wonderful job of slowly building the romance between the OC and Draco. The OC challenges Draco's Slytherin ideals in a way that makes him reevaluate his views, which adds depth to their relationship.
A really interesting fanfic is 'Hermione Against Draco'. In this one, Hermione stands up to Draco during a Potions class. He tries to undermine her skills, but she shows him that she's just as good if not better. There's also 'Facing Draco' where Hermione faces Draco's attempts to get her in trouble with Snape. And 'Hermione's Courage' shows her standing up to Draco's group of Slytherin cronies when they try to corner her in a corridor.
To be a great stand-up comic, first, you should have a unique perspective on life and be able to find the funny in everyday situations. Second, practice your delivery and timing a lot. Third, be confident on stage and connect with your audience.
One good example could be a story where Draco and Parvati are paired in a potions class project. They start off disliking each other because of their house differences. But as they work together, they discover they have more in common than they thought. For instance, they both have a love for magical creatures, which they initially hid from each other. This mutual interest begins to break down the barriers between them.
Well, there are fanfictions that deal with Draco's time as a Death Eater in a very raw and stripped manner. They don't shy away from showing his fear, his doubts, and his small acts of resistance (if any). This type of fanfiction gives a different perspective on his character, not just as a villain but as a complex individual caught in a difficult situation. It can also explore how his actions during that time affected his future relationships and self - perception.
