So, I’ve seen a lot of Femme drarry stuff on my feed and from that arose 2 questions: how could this be plausible within the universe? and how do we name them without fucking everything up?
Plausibility: Harry
Harry’s story would remain the same. We have two routes for this: either make her cis, or make her transfemme. Either way, her story is relatively the same with the added factor of her gender.
Naming: Harry(incomplete, will update later)
With naming her, we still have lots of options. We could name her something similar and give her the nickname harry, or literally still name her Harry because maybe Lily and James were attached to the name. If she’s trans, the latter doesn’t quite work because yes she’d be born with that name, but we’d have to give her an alternate name. The other thing thats so so important to realize is that it’s okay if we give her a name thats not at all similar to the canon ones. Harriet is cute, but some people feel icky about it. So, giving names that have similar vibes to Harry. Looking into the origin and meaning of the name Harry is so hard because there’s always a lovely lovely call back to the series itself, but I will update this section with my research and findings. But basically, when I’m able, I’ll look into similar feminine names in both vibe and meaning, aswell as popularity. I’ll update this post later.
Plausibility: Draco
Draco is a pureblood, which means his family needs a male heir to carry on the blood line. So the way I see it, we really only have two options: 1)Draco is born female and we give her a little brother 2)transfemme Draco.
1) Giving her a little brother, possibly naming him Draco, would serve to keep the metaphorical Malfoy Bloodline alive. The issue with this is now we have to create a whole new character for our AU and we have to be careful to make him make sense within the story. Give him a purpose that changes the course of it. I do think, just to fuck with lucius it would be so funny if the younger brother turned out to be a transgirl because now Lucius Malfoy has no fucking heir that fits his idea lol.
2) TRANSFEMME DRACO MALFOY!!! I’m obsessed w/ this idea dude.
Rate the set up lmao!!! Dont actually it just ot reorganized so ifs a weeiiird ugly cornrner :(///((( // Really working up a hurricaine in here anf im running out of this thread so i think ill have to rewind osome bigger. Bobbin. Things. Spool! This one :P
For the assumptions thing: you've read at least one Shakespeare play on your own (i.e. not for a class/school assignment)
oh absolutely! I read Macbeth like 4 months before we studied it in school and have also read Richard III, All's Well That Ends Well and The Taming of the Shrew of my own accord :)
“I admit, the sounds of a dragon passing over head ....is quiet terrifying.” dragons here, dragons there, dragons everywhere. Though the area has been recently liberated from another Tharn, it is lucky that little to no one seems to be eager to assist the dominion, making it more of a neutral zone.
