## Summary



## Transcript

In the entirety of Harry Potter's time at Hogwarts school for witchcraft and wizardry he has class with one singular slither and child who was important to the plot and experiences any kind of development throughout the story. Can you guess his name?
Hey guys, this big boy analysis used to be part of a bigger boy analysis and hours long monstrosity essay on Slytherin House and Snape and Voldemort and basically everything under the sun. And yes, my finger slipped 7000 times and I wrote a giant analysis of Draco
Malfoy. And while I had fun writing it it wasn't the topic of the video and that's illegal and I don't want to go to YouTube jail. So I broke my essay into smaller essays and this my friends
is the Draco essay. Let's round the clock back to the first book. Your story starts with a protagonist being berated by his cruel aunt and uncle and their spoiled son.
And it ends with him facing off against Voldemort.
But then there's all this middle who's antagonizing our boy Harry in the middle parts of the story. Well, what if in the school there is a competition between different groups of students? What if on top of that there's a group of students in the school who are loosely aligned with the
main antagonist in a way where they can't be directly confronted because they have plausible deniability but they do support Voldemort and his rise to power. This allows the protagonist to have a little baby version of the villain to fly out by the flagpole until the bell rings
and the actual murderous genocidal monster man manifests himself. For these simple purposes, Harry's rival Draco Malfoy comes into being. This boy, like no other in the series, demands attention.
He's like an overly pampered, opulently dressed, hairedless cat that fucking hates you. Just mocking you from his cat treat like he thinks he's in charge even though he's an eight pound uncooked chicken. Draco is a boy born in the same summer as Harry because Harry is the boy
who lived Draco got to be the boy who grew up in a peaceful world. They're both rich wizards with wizard parents. They attend Hogwarts and they play the same sport. Quidditch, they even play the same position, seeker. And that's where the similarities kind of run out because in most ways,
they're very intentionally written to be opposites. He's a Draco Malfoyal, if you will. He's the goofest to his gallant. I want to look at the first two times Harry interacts with his rivaling great detail, extracting all the sweet analysis nectar so that we can delve deep into his mind slime.
Harry meets Draco at Madame Malkins, robes for all occasions in Diagon Alley. Draco starts a rather mundane conversation with the boy standing next to him, not realizing it's actually the famous Harry Potter. It's kind of funny because this is one of the only times in the series you'll get to see Draco
make small talk with someone who's not one of his lackeys or someone he looks down on, just a neutral party. And at first, it's really normal. He asks Harry if he's going to Hogwarts. He rambles about what his mom and dad are out buying for him. He asks Harry if he has a broom. If he plays Quidditch,
he remarks that he knows he'll get sorted into Slytherin and God. If he gets sorted into Hufflepuff, he just leave. It's subtle, but this is the first instance of Draco's propensity to inject his family into every conversation and simultaneously the expectations his family has of him and that he
has of himself. Harry tries to answer Draco's questions honestly without letting on that he doesn't know what the boy is talking about and he feels self-conscious that he has nothing interesting to say back. But then Draco spots Hagrid through the windows probably startled by this giant man looking
in on them. Harry's excited to know something that Draco doesn't and he tells him that that man's name is Hagrid and he's a groundskeeper at Hogwarts. Draco then recalls that he's heard of Hagrid before.
He's heard rumors that he's a savage who gets drunk and lights his bed on fire. This is when Harry starts souring on his new acquaintance. He's getting a sense of his leadism. Harry tells him Hagrid is brilliant and he's with him. And when Draco asks why Harry's with him, Harry tells him that his parents
are dead. Draco says he's sorry but Harry doesn't think he sounds very sorry. Then Draco asks Harry if his parents were our kind. He expresses that he doesn't think the other sort should be left into Hogwarts
and the school should be for old wizarding families. Then very tellingly, before asking the boy next to him for his first name Draco asks for his surname. Before Harry can answer, they're interrupted
and seen. To me, this scene establishes that in Draco's mind, other people sort of exist for his sake. He's social but he's very preoccupied with learning people's status
position so he knows how much to respect or judge them. He mainly talks to brag about his family and possessions. He's not completely socially inept. He does ask Harry questions about himself but he kind of knows where he wants to take this conversation. On the Hogwarts Express, Draco will hear a rumor
that Harry Potter is in a certain train compartment. And when going to meet him, he will discover the identity of the boy next to him at Madame Malkins, cue a similar sort of conversation from the one in the movie. But in the book, after Harry won't shake his hand he describes Draco going slightly
pink from embarrassment and saying, And the rest is history. In Draco's second appearance
set the Hogwarts Express, we experience another side of him. His temper, his pettiness, his neediness towards people he sees is more powerful and famous than himself. If your position is higher than his and you won't accept him and be the jewel in his crown he goes into a defensive
explosion. There's all this demand for power and control. He wants to destroy Harry the way white blood cells want to destroy bacteria. He has to neutralize this threat right away or else, well,
anything could happen. The unknown is quite scary. It's quite reminiscent of the environment he was raised in where there's this fixation on status. It doesn't matter if it's the minister of magic or Voldemort, Draco's father Lucius Courts power. Compare and contrast, Harry's friends are his friends
out of sheer happenstance. Ron is a boy he meets heading to Hogwarts on the train. Hermione's the girl Harry feels responsible for warning about a troll. Draco's two best friends are the sons of death eaters, they're a part of the sacred 28 pure blood wizarding families. Within the ideology
there's a succession with purity and its opposite filth. And let's appreciate what a vicious rapid turn this was. Draco immediately used the most sensitive piece of information he knew about
Harry to hurt him. He launched the nukes at the first sign of social rejection. If he was polite and just kept his mouth shut he might have been able to be friend Harry maybe even pull him away from Ron and influence him slowly. Who knows Harry might have faced the sorting hat thinking being
sorted into Slytherin wasn't that big of a deal. And if Harry didn't have a strong opinion he could have ended up in the dungeon with the snakey boys changing the entire course of the story. Now 11 year olds aren't known for their emotional control but Draco is a member of the house whose
prize trait is cunning. This isn't at all cunning it's actually very emotionally unintelligent. Draco either can't read people or he doesn't care too and he's too emotional to be good at manipulating people through charm. He defaults to threats and fear hmm I wonder where he learned that.
I love how before Harry knows the specifics of what Draco's talking about or his ideology he can just recognize through tone that Draco is unpleasant. Even though Draco dislikes muggles he's got quite a bit in common with Harry's cousin, Dudley Dursley. These two spoiled blonde boys are prone
to explosive outbursts. 36 count of them myself. 36 but last year last year I'm 47. I guess some of them are quite a bit bigger than last year. And they're both going to have serious
troubles growing up because their parents are lovingly poisoning their minds. I think in the heart of some spoiled children there's something dark and desperate almost primal. What do you do when you have everything? Well I think you overreact to roadblocks. Maybe it's because you've never
had anyone say no to you before but I think in addition to that maybe even more so the environment might make you neurotic. It seems to me that because Dudley and Draco like their life and have it all
they kind of freak out at the first signs that they're losing ground and I don't think that feeling comes from nowhere I think it reflects the disposition of their parents. L&E Cazden is a research professor of child psychology who focuses on the treatment of aggressive or anti-social behavior in
children. He gave this quote to fatherly.com. Kids are more likely to mimic behavior than they are to adjust their behavior to fit expectations. In other words spoiled parents raise spoiled kids. A public-minded generous and polite parent might shower his or her child in privilege and
presence and still raise a public-minded generous and polite child. Continuing from the article Cazden's point isn't that parents are unwise or unreasonable to worry about spoiling their kids
but that they are focused on the wrong mechanisms and failing to take an adequately hard look at themselves. Petunia and Vernon Dursley drown their son Dudley with presence to reassure him that even though he doesn't have magic powers he is special. The source of this motivation is a deep
wound of petunias caused by her sister suddenly getting a letter to Hogwarts soaking up all of their parents' attention disappearing from most of the year and dying young. So they go overboard appeasing
Dudley and they make Harry the enemy of the household who it's acceptable to bully both Dudley and his parents have these two modes of being. They have one foot in being a happy upper middle class family and the other in these clawing screaming attempts to control their environment and everyone in it.
So what does this have to do with Draco? Well, it's the same thing on a larger scale with an entire group of people as the enemy instead of one boy. Draco's parents Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy spoiled Draco
and raised him in an environment to believe he's special because he's a pure blood wizard and muggles and muggle-borns of the designated enemy. The Malfoys take their inherited and expanding wealth as proof of their superiority over the poorer, weasley family who they consider blood traders for not
valuing their pure blood status. I believe young Draco greatly admires his parents and seeks to mimic their mannerisms, values and opinions so he can replicate their success. But he also absorbs a
suicidal type of self-preservation that invents threats to fight against. Have you ever heard of defensive eating? People who eat all the food in the house so that other people can't eat it first? That's what this is. It's defensive eating with power and it's the foundation of Draco Malfoy's
identity. Draco is 11 years old in the first book but he never really gets any better at manipulating people. Draco is a little cunning in the sense that he knows the effective way to mess with Harry are indirect avenues of applying pressure where he gets groups of people to go after Harry instead of
directly confronting him. For example, when Harry gets chosen as Hogwarts second champion for the tri wizard tournament, Draco makes badges for other students to wear so Harry is continually confronted with everyone hating him. But from Harry's perspective, when compared to Dementora's dragon's
unbridge and Voldemort, Draco can't hold the candle as a threat. He is very prone to having metaphorical anvil's comedically fallen him and squash his ego. As the stakes of the story rise and Voldemort grows more powerful, Draco basically goes from rival to pathetic miniboss
to the lack of other more sinister villains. And the movies actually punch this up a notch
milking Draco more often for comedy. This might surprise you but I actually don't mind
that the movies make Draco look like more of a coward because well I don't think it's saying anything about him that's not true. In fact, he's a coward is important to the plot. It's his discomfort with violence that keeps him from fully embracing Voldemort. I mean emotionally that's just uncomfortable.
Draco was raised in a time of peace. Brought to you by Harry Potter, the boy who lived, to be resented by this jealous jelly mean. Every year Draco continues to shrink as a threat. By the time half-blood prince rolls around, Ron and Hermione find Harry's new obsession with this
idea that Draco is a death-eater kind of laughable. Harry is under the impression Draco Malfoy is now a death-eater. And just like I always love this so much they're like Harry
Draco's awful like this isn't chamber of secrets he's not even good enough to be a right airing anymore. Draco could like try to pin a fart on somebody else and karma would no scope him from across the map. But of course they were wrong and it is at this point in the story Draco transcends
his role as a school yard bully into more thematically complex territory.
If you look up movie clips of Draco from Half-blood Prince and Deathly Hollows 1 or 2 in the
comment section you'll probably see the phrase Draco Malfoy, the boy who had no choice. It will be photoshopped into many dramatic stills or gifts of Draco. Draco had no choice in the
sense that between the fifth and sixth book he appears to have been selected by Voldemort to heal Dumbledore as punishment for his father's failures. That's Dumbledore's interpretation of what happened so I'm inclined to believe it. He also did not choose to be born into a home that
would try to indoctrinate him into their wizard supremacist belief system. But I will say I don't buy the modestly popular fan interpretation that Draco was hit or yelled at by his parents or even just crushed under the weight of their expectations, pre Voldemort taking over Malfoy Manor.
I'm sure people that make this argument would argue that this is not meant to be a justification for his bigotry just an analysis of his particular case of goop brain. So the thought process here is
that it's very dismissive to paint him as a spoiled child just because all of his material needs were met doesn't mean everything was as it should have been at home. To truly appreciate this character you have to look to the goop. You must appreciate all his lost grubby gargled marbles
that are not in his head. Okay that's fair. I'll dive into that but I'll dive into anything except actual water. I'm a weak swimmer. Things that are abusive to children can be put into two categories.
On the left side I'll put categories of action. Categories of abusive actions are things like sexual abuse, physical abuse, and emotional abuse. On the right side we'll put failure to take action. This is what we call neglect. You can neglect a child's physical needs, educational needs,
health needs, or emotional needs. So I can imagine how some of you would be confused about how emotional abuse and emotional neglect are different. Emotional abuse is things like insulting or threatening violence against a child. Emotional neglect is failure to provide support to a child.
So it's when a parent gives them little affection or attention. Although to be fair it's a distinction that's probably only going to be made in like your child's like class. Most people seem to just mush them together and just call them emotional abuse. So as far as things would
drake go go sexual abuse can be taken off the table right away as I've never seen anyone try to argue this point. While physical abuse is not a common accusation I did have a friend growing up who strongly believed there was purposeful subtext in the chamber of secrets movie that Drako was
getting canings from his dad. Your first impression of Lucius is when he puts his cane on Drako's shoulder to move him. The cane's handle is a snake mouth so that's kind of subtle violent imagery of the snake
biting on him. And you know there he is Lucius Malfoy, a legalist who was left out on the counter for too long. And these bad vibes get doubled down again when movie Lucius grabs Harry and moves his hair with his cane to inspect his scar. This is very ominous. In the books Lucius puts his hands on
his son's shoulders and stands with him for most of the conversation. He never really acknowledges Harry. He just focuses on the weaselies. So in this deleted scene Lucius sees Drako touching an
artifact in Borgonon Berks and wisely strikes his cane down on that same object telling him not to touch anything. I don't know why it doesn't make any sense but it sure makes me laugh. Drako don't touch that. It will make you sterile. What do you think you're an only child? This is so irresponsible
to just leave this out like this. Oh I'm so upset. Borgonon Berks, more like Borgonon jerks. Drako help me beat the crap out of everything in here. Okay so this does not line at all with the books. On page 50 Drako is told by his father touch nothing Drako. Drako is confused because he thought they
were here to buy him a present. And Lucius is like yeah I said I would buy you a racing broom. And then Drako goes into a rant that we'll cover in a sec. So in the movies canon this would give off major bad vibes. It definitely gives off this impression Drako is afraid of his father but it's
a deleted scene. But sometimes ABC family inserts it into the movie as an ascended cut it's kind of a mess. The point is just in the movies because of these subtle changes Lucius seems like a more
threatening violent man who can't keep his damn cane off Drako and Harry.
Notably though this is not the last time movie Drako interacts with the cane. Drako actually likes his dad's cane sorry walking stick enough to bring it with him to Hogwarts.
He gets offended on its behalf when it's called the wrong thing. Perhaps because cane has violent connotations or the offending connotations are that Lucius Malfoy over here is actually a daughtering old man with wizard being cross beyond the radio, smoking out of a corn pipe. But the TLDL is to
Drako this is not a striking stick. It's a treasured object that reminds him of his father. Look he looks at it tenderly. It's a memory stick. So I conclude that the story is not trying to tell us that
Drako was physically abused that this scene is trying to walk back the previous scenes and since Narcissa is not really like ever around, Drako was probably not physically abused. Now let's cover
emotional abuse by returning to that conversation in Borgon and Berks. In this scene 12 year old Drako is whining to his father about how they let Harry on the Quidditch team and he's not even good, he's just famous. Lucius' dialogue makes it pretty clear that he's patient but kind of sick of his
son droning on about Harry Potter. He tells Drako that he thinks it's less than prudent to seem unfond of Harry Potter because to most people he's a hero that made the dark lord disappear. This is going to be something that's more important later in the video but that's major to me.
He's not telling him don't fight with him. He's saying don't even let it be known that you don't like him. Which in the game that Lucius is playing that solid advice. If you're not a death eater, why do you hate Harry Potter so much? So I don't think Drako feels he can't disagree with his father
because one of the main ways he disobeyes his father throughout the story is antagonizing Harry. Now in real life witnessing one positive interaction between a parent and a child doesn't disprove abuse but when constructing a fictional narrative when there are very few scenes of Drako talking
with his parents hints have to be dropped that there is some friction between them but there isn't. Overall Narcissa who is rarely shown seems like the ideal loving mother who would do anything for her
son and Lucius seems like the ideal loving father in the books and a stricter, colder but not necessarily abusive father in the movies. This leaves neglect Drako's medical educational and physical needs are being met so that leads emotional needs. Drako's parents seem
extremely supportive of him in affectionate with him. When Drako wants something like to be on the Quidditch team Lucius dumps money moving heaven and earth to get Drako what he wants and get him the proper equipment. In fact Drako's parents don't even seem to be guilty of some of the more
common practices of suboptimal parenting. For example before Lucius goes to prison and Voldemort takes over Drako's life Drako does not seem to be crushed under his parents' expectations. Drako seems to have authentically absorbed all of his parents' interests and values.
At this point I'm sure some of you might be like well wait isn't teaching him to be a big abusive in some way? Well it's complicated for two reasons so the first problem is to properly research this would take understanding the allegory and Harry Potter as a specific well-thought-out
allegory in researching the bigotry of that subject. I would have to come to an understanding about the psychological effect on real people taught those ideas as children and then I'd have to translate that to the fictional character. If I had to pick what bigotry in particular blood supremacy is
supposed to be a stand in for my mind would pick racism because of the fixation on blood purity and misugination. It is Miss Burbage's belief that muggles are not so different from us.
She would, given her way, have us mate with them. To her the mixture of magical and muggle blood is not an abomination but something to be encouraged.
The problem is the allegory is either not meant to be anything specific or it's just not well-thought-out and it's the details of the Harry Potter universe itself that makes the commentary fall apart. For example details like the existence of wizards spontaneously coming from non-magical families
and vice versa and the setting making it so that people who cannot do magic are almost not present in the story and when they are they're either annoying or fools. The second problem is once you consider how much goop is clogging the allegory it just gets hard to take it seriously.
You know I take pride in what I do here even when I'm covering children's literature or teen dramas but I had this moment where I caught a glimpse of the abyss you know as you do and I realized I was spending hours reading academic papers and books that contained pictures of dead bodies
so that I could apply that knowledge to a Harry Potter video essay about Draco's sad boy and it was at that moment that I realized any just society should vanish me into the wilderness with a hatchet and half a snickers bar. So here's my conclusion for this section of the video.
I believe everything that happened between Harry and Draco was mostly Draco's choice. I think Draco dug that hole for himself every year with Harry even though he was explicitly told by his father not to do this. It's so short-sighted of him it's kind of the least slither
and thing about Draco. If you see Draco is just a victim of circumstance abused by his parents the fact that he doesn't have a redemption arc and that he never really stands up against Voldemort probably comes off as really weird but I don't think that's the narrative's intention and thus
acting like Draco has no choice maybe misses the point. Harry the protagonist of this story was raised in an awful environment but he's a very loving boy and he's very willing to forgive the world. He deeply cares for his friends and he'll sacrifice a lot for others he'll literally die for you.
Draco would not have survived the events of the story if Harry wasn't this brave stand-up grip-in-door. The funny thing with the Malfoys is outside of the fact that the father is a high-ranking member of a terrorist cult and the mother presumably supported that throughout their whole marriage.
The Malfoys are rather unremarkable they're just another rich family. Draco comes from a loving environment he had a sheltered upbringing and that should be a good thing right it should be good that nothing bad happened to Draco and that he wasn't traumatized or abused but the Malfoys
only love each other and they only respect power. So naturally Draco doesn't know how to love and respect anything that isn't exactly like him. Like beneficial characters from Nick Caraway to holding Caulfield Draco's name was carefully selected to hold meaning. According to visiting
world.com Draco's last name Malfoy is old French. It's a combination of the words Malfoy meaning bad or evil and foy meaning faith or trust. Taken literally his last name means bad faith, bad trust,
evil faith or evil trust. Since French and English have roots in Latin the prefix Mal is quite intimidating and it's in all kinds of spooky words. Like the malice of an enemy, a malformed plan
that goes horribly or a malignant tumor. This makes Mal a great mouth noise to insert into an antagonist name like Maleficent. According to the author JK Rowling Draco's first name comes from a constellation as
everybody notable on his mother's side of the family. The noble and most ancient house of black. Our name after something celestial Draco is Latin for dragon. So the constellation is a dragon
with a quadrilateral head and a long body and super short stubby little legs little pathetic leggings. You can imagine it not as a thick European dragon but one of those longer snakey boys and in some
myths it's interpreted not as a dragon at all but as a snake or a sea serpent. This gives Draco a name with a connection to snakes without being super on the nose like a snake-o-his-boy. I'd say eat your heart out where Wolf McWear Wolfington but let's be real. The name Remus Lupin is really
pretty and you're just jealous. Draco can be seen in the northern hemisphere all year round but says it's so big it's ironically difficult to make out. It is surrounded by more easily identifiable constellations with brighter stars like Hercules and the Big and Little Dipper. Putting Draco's
full name together reaps some interesting foreshadowing for his role in the story. One combination that catches my eyes dragon bad faith. Now as anyone who's watched any amount of reality television will tell you they are two states of matter. Real and fake. Draco Malfoy is like super effing fake. Calling Draco
a bad faith dragon is kind of interesting. If foreshadows that the character doesn't quite meet the expectations for him to be something ferocious and deadly. When we talk about deathly hollows more in the final section I'm going to talk about Draco's wand or rather hairy having Draco's wand and
using it to fight Voldemort. So let's get y'all wise and wicked learn it on this trivia. The symbolism of Draco's wand is quite famous. When it was discovered that the wand's core is unicorn hair, fans everywhere went aww that's cool. Unicorn core wands are the hardest ones to turn to the dark side.
The core of the wand can literally die but unicorn hair is a core held by many characters throughout the story. The wood of the wand is not. Draco's wand is Hawthorn wood. The entry on Hawthorn wood was clearly written just for Draco as he's the only character known to have one. The entry
describes that it is a paradoxical tree the leaves and blossoms heal but wreak of death. The wands are well suited to healing magic but are adeptic curses. The wand is prone to disastrous backfiring if
handled poorly. Hawthorn trees themselves are beautiful trees with white blossoms that grow their fruit in July and the fruit is ripe by October. It's a tree with thorny branches that birds like to make their nests in. In Celtic folklore it's a symbol of protection, love and springtime which is
the season of rebirth and you know if anyone's in need of a rebirth it's Draco he seriously needs wizard Jesus. So trying to summarize the imagery here I think the core of Draco's magic it's this position is something gentle being used for dark purposes. Under Voldemort's thumb Draco
slowly withers throughout his sixth year. He gets behind in homework he plays six so he doesn't have to attend quidditch matches all of his time goes into mending the vanishing cabinet. You know even Draco's mission here reflects the duality that follows him around. He's bringing about destruction a historical
infiltration of Hogwarts by mending something that's broken. Draco is bailed out by Snape at the last second and he's not forced to kill Dumbledore. The question going into deathly hollows when it comes to Draco's storyline is how far can this go? You know the old classic can this sad boy
really go full evil or will he be redeemed? Whether or not Draco deserves a redemption arc is a hot topic for discussion still debated to this day. Some people see Draco as a sensitive person not really cut out for this a bully and a bigot but not quite at the level where he can kill and feel
nothing. So they feel it's odd that he's allowed to live and crawl away and lick his wounds without doing anything big. There's different reasons people feel this way some people feel that it just seems incomplete or unresolved other people are very attached to Draco and so they feel that he was
cheated. Also some people just think Tom Felton's hot and they hate seeing him cry and they want to see him be happy and it's kind of a boring answer but it is an answer and it's kind of the answer rolling differs too. And you know I could spin this lovely web about how people relate to the
emotions and characters not so much literally but almost like the shadow of the emotion they cast. Maybe you don't know what it's like to be a brainwashed blood racist bully but maybe you understand the emotions of feeling trapped like you dug yourself into a hole that you can't get out of but uh
you know what I've met the Harry Potter fan base and uh Draco is basically between Tyler Durden and Rick Sanchez in terms of how well the average audience member seems to understand this character.
Draco is definitely a cool confident bad boy and not a fundamentally insecure attention seeking coward who immediately rolls over to any authority figure he thinks is of no. Now I think some of you will be like yeah stick it to all those stupid jeans getting into Harry Potter. Oh no we're not doing that
that's boring. Listen to me listen to me all you people who are making and watching those gutcher life Harry Potter videos I see you out there racking up thousands and thousands of views you're still too
weak your thirst isn't strong enough you're not willing to engage with the character as it was written but you know what I don't care to the pentagram look into the pentagram make a pact with me swear that you will post cringe every day and no one will be able to talk you out of it. Anyway what was
it all about? Oh yeah Draco's biggest act of defiance against Voldemort starts on page 458 this is when he pretends not to know who Harry Ron and Hermione are which saves their life but it is also interestingly as far as actions go small and on heroic in fact in the movie it's very
unclear to me if Draco's even lying on purpose so it's a good thing that they added this line in the confrontation in the room of hidden things where Harry confirms that this is what happened. You knew it was me you can say nothing. Now in the movies it was actually floated if Draco should have a
bigger act of defiance against Voldemort there is this footage of Draco running past Voldemort shouting potter going to throw Harry his wand someone on youtube has actually edited a scene from Harry potter to put this back into the movie and it has over three million views and the salt in this comment
section you know I have sympathy but it is delicious I can't believe people would lie on the internet why are people just making stuff up in the comment section look at this comment it has hundreds of upvotes it's claiming Draco throws Harry his wand in the books oh honey no no Harry just takes Draco's
wand he steals three wands out of Draco's hand on page 474 and then hits grayback with an epic triple one stupify this is like the Tony Hawk Pro Skater combo move of owning dumb werewolves
what are you talking about Ryan G more like Ryan Yee got him also I can't figure out if the fact that Harry becomes the owner of the elder wand and Draco's wand a plot crucial piece of information
not by disarming Draco with magic but by disarming Draco literally by wrestling him like a muggle like two siblings fighting over a toy this is either a dumb skating of the universe's rules or genius
this book came out 2007 and I still haven't decided so to fill in Voldemort doesn't know it yet but he's in trouble because the wand he's using during this final battle actually belongs to Harry it was double doors but Draco disarmed Dumbledore but didn't kill him then Harry disarmed Draco
therefore taking ownership of all of Draco's wands so Harry has the Hawthorne wand that Draco's had for years and the elder wand now the elder wand is kind of fickle you disarm its owner and it just
becomes yours it's not sentimental it doesn't get attached I know that seems weird but you got to keep in mind that magic wands in this universe are almost alive here's the thing though the same cannot be said of Draco's wand according to rolling on the subject of wands with unicorn hair
cores they are the most fateful of all wands and usually remain strongly attached to their first owner irrespective of whether he or she was an accomplished witch or wizard so the fact that Harry can use Draco's regular wand is really weird it's not even like a wand Harry finds on the side of the road
it's the wand of this kid who has resented him and hated him basically since the second time they spoke the wand shouldn't really work for Harry but it works fine and I think that's because it's an extension of Draco's will Draco won't take direct action but he knows that Harry has to win the battle
of hogwarts when talking about Voldemort it is often mentioned how he cannot understand love and this usually comes up in the context of him not understanding snakes motivations but it's also true that Voldemort doesn't understand the mouth voice Voldemort cannot secure the mouth voice family status or even
their safety they're out because that's all they care about that thing people say about how the mouth voice aren't the true evil of the story because at least they love each other yet kind of rings true the mouth voice come off as quaintly pathetic by the end of the book along the aisle between
the tables he walked and he spotted the three mouth voice huddled together as though unsure whether or not they were supposed to be there but Odie was paying them any attention yeah they're not exactly zukowing this redemption arc are they they're sort of ungracefully stumbling to the other
side of the war their pride greatly damaged at first it can seem really off that rolling will argue with you on twitter about Snape but constantly reminds you that Draco is not someone to be admired after all Draco was only 17 years old at the battle of hogwarts Snape was an adult when he had a
change of heart and we know for a fact that him changing his mind did not lead to him treating the other people around him with more respect but this is my theory my theory of rolling's mind palace what happened this Snape is kind of straightforward you can look at a select few moments of his life
and imagine how things could have gone wildly different to untangle what's wrong with Draco would take a rewriting of his entire happy childhood before he even shows up at hogwarts the sorting hat
knows Draco is in slither and before it's even on his head because Draco thought he knew exactly who he was and exactly what he wanted but he was wrong what is Draco when he's not a spoiled child the jeering bullie snake trying to slither away from bigger snakes that eats snakes rolling is written
out a more detailed account of Draco's life post the war and how he still lives in duality she describes him living in Malfoy Manor the home he was raised in with his wife and son still very wealthy he collects dark artifacts from his family's history but he keeps them in glass
cases and never uses them in rolling's own words however his strange interest in alchemical manuscripts from which he never attempts to make a philosopher's stone instead of wish for something more than wealth
perhaps even the wish to be a better man i have high hopes that he will raise scorpious to be a much kinder more tolerant Malfoy than he was in his own youth her article concludes there is after all in debt risk of rekindling unhealthy fantasies some unextinguished good at the heart of Draco
so my buddies my babies my ladies where does blood supremacy and and Draco Malfoy begin we're just gonna have to throw that question out to the universe to the comment section because
