Spring Term. Harry's off to teach DADA, but he'll have his Floo set up and ready for Draco to crawl through by the evening.

Summary:

Harry stared at the newspaper still spread out in front of him. Malfoy looked like he’d been caught trying to duck away from whoever had snapped the photograph. His shoulders were hunched in his suit jacket, his eyes darted, and he kept shuffling a step behind Narcissa. "Innocent," the headline on this page proclaimed, as the article went on to explain that in contrast to his father, the Malfoy scion had managed to secure himself a walk of freedom. Harry snorted. Malfoy could make a show of looking wan and frightened all he liked; beneath his perfectly pressed shirt sleeve there was a Dark Mark. There was nothing innocent about that.

A/N:  Hopefully this chapter serves as a well-deserved gift to all the lovely readers and commenters who've stuck with me throughout this story! Merry Christmas! 🥰🎄🎁

i can’t stop thinking about Harry who cares about Draco so much. just imagine when Malfoy is drowning in self-hate because of the his past and wakes up from another nightmare, and Harry only calms him down and pat his back. this is my roman empire(i need a therapist)

GAY CHICKEN

Draco: …What? 

Harry: It’s a game… we act as if we are going to kiss and the first one to back out loses.

So it seems that not only did Harry shift blame away from Draco in book 6 in the immediate aftermath of Dumbledore's death (x) but apparently based on this bit from book 7 it looks like when Ministry officials arrived he didn't implicate Draco at all and instead only gave evidence about Snape's guilt despite the fact that he heard Draco confess to a number of crimes.

The lengths he goes to to shield Draco are actually wild. Guess all our headcanons where he testifies on Draco's behalf don't go far enough lol.

Fanon Harry: Yes Draco made terrible mistakes but he shouldn't go to Azkaban because if you look at the whole context it's clear he was coerced and didn't want to do it and subsequently changed his mind and even risked his life to save mine so he deserves a second chance.

Canon Harry: Idk what you all are talking about. I was on the Astronomy Tower the night Dumbledore died and I only saw Snape. And sure someone Imperiused Rosmerta and made her pass on poisoned mead and a cursed necklace but anyone could've done that. If we had a witness who overheard the perpetrator confess their guilt then we'd know. But. Sadly. We don't. :)

he looked at me, the prat—

[slytherin-scribbler]

draco malfoy, who spits his plosives and enunciates his t's and accentuates his i's so his posh accent spills through each and every word, a reminder to others exactly who they're speaking to, a reminder to himself of that feigned authority he clutches onto dearly, that same authority driven into him since as long as he can remember from his father, authority not earned but owned, possessed within himself, deserved, his birthright punctuating each turn of phrase

draco malfoy, whose instinct at any slight is to cut back with words twice as sharp and three times as damning, vocabulary well-versed with a plethora of pithy comebacks and quips and insults that leave those who dare speak against him dumb with shock or stuttering with shame

draco malfoy, who from the moment he locked eyes with the dark haired boy spoke his name with every ounce of distaste on his tongue, becoming stunned to silence when that same boy speaks to him with a sort of care he'd only ever heard in those rare, quiet moments from the mouth of his mother, the same gentle lilt followed by that soft smile that makes his throat feel thick and his face feel hot

draco malfoy, whose sharp witted snake-of-a-tongue is miraculously tamed by that boy rumoured to be able to speak with serpents

draco malfoy, who is only ever at a loss for words around harry potter
