Anniversary Discussion: Friends and Family

May 16, 2011 18:20

Hello and greeting dear Dramione fans!

Dramione. Draco Malfoy, Hermione Granger. Two people from different worlds, almost literally. Arrogant pure-blood, swotty Muggle-born. No matter how they get together, they aren't the only people in the Potter-verse. When creating and appreciating fanworks involving this ship, there are more characters to consider than just the couple.

Lucius Malfoy, Harry Potter, Pansy Parkinson, Ron Weasley - just to start. When you consume fanworks, how do you like to see the friends and family of Draco and Hermione? When you're creating, how do you handle them? Do you concentrate exclusively on the couple? Do you like to see a deep and intense exploration of the reactions of others? Do you kill 'em all and let someone else sort it out?

How do you think Lucius Malfoy reacts to his son dating a woman he's faced down (and lost to) in more than one fight? How do you think Harry handles knowing that Hermione is with a man he nearly murdered in a bathroom? Is Goyle going to obey whatever Draco tells him? Would Luna mumble something about Cupids and Nargles? Draco's parents meet Hermione's parents at Christmas dinner - how many explosions would there be and does anyone have to call the fire brigade?

What are your thoughts? Make a statement, ask a question, start a conversation! XDXD Just keep it polite. We've got a HUGE community here, with a lot of opinions, and everyone is welcome!
