The Big Seven Headcanons: Draco Malfoy
Draco Malfoy never hated Muggle-borns. He always felt like dirt whenever he insulted them.
Draco may not have been hit and punched, but he was verbally abused and sometimes that does worse things to people.
Draco Malfoy did not know how to make friends because his friendships were always made for him. That’s why he acted like such a prick on his first encounter with Harry. That was how he acted with the people that he wanted to like him.
At one point, Molly Weasley accidentally bumped into him whilst buying some of Lockhart’s books. Expecting a round of insults and disrespect, she was shocked when Draco picked up the books that fell and said a muttered, “I’m sorry, Mrs. Weasley. I wasn’t looking,” before quickly leaving.
Draco was a jerk to many people at many times, but you can bet your bottom dollars that he was once late for class because he comforted a student a year younger than him because she was scared, and she needed someone. Draco decided that that “someone” was him.
That’s the story of how Astoria Greengrass fell in love with Draco Malfoy.
First years came to him when they needed help with their homework. It was tiring at first, but Draco soon liked the idea of being a tutor.
Snape visited Draco when he was a kid once, and he asked the man for advise. Snape looked at him, and said, “never let what people say define who you are.” And that’s why he always looked up to him.
Draco genuinely hated the prejudice between houses, and would often tell first years to never listen to anyone.
Draco Malfoy never loved Draco Malfoy because, at an early age, he decided that there was nothing to love anyway.
He wanted to be a Death Eater for one reason and one reason alone: he wanted to make his parents proud.
He was a major sweet-tooth.
He never, ever called Luna, Looney.
Sometimes, when he was walking alone in the corridors because Crabbe and Goyle had decided to skip, he would pass by Luna, and they would have short chats about whichever mystical beast she thought of.
This started when Luna, as a shy first year, went up to some Gryffindors and wanted to be their friends. They laughed and teased her, and it was all-too-familiar for Draco’s liking.
Besides, Luna didn’t seem to hate Slytherins as much as other Ravenclaws did, anyway.
The reason why Draco was not on her ceiling was because he was in her drawer, safely hidden and kept because she knew that their friendship was secret, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t true.
A black dog once comforted him while he was crying.
He’s been very fond of dogs ever since.
Draco was depressed for a long time in his life. He often cried himself to sleep when he thought no one heard.
The Dementors took such a toll on him that he was sent to the Madam Pomfrey twice because he had a breakdown.
Remus actually attempted to teach him how to conjure a Patronus.
He didn’t have any memories that were happy enough to perform the spell.
He didn’t care if Remus was a werewolf, actually. He gained a fair amount of respect for the man.
Draco Malfoy hid behind smirks, sly remarks and insults because he decided that it’s the only place where people like him were allowed to be.
