Do Want

[worksofstone]

I think we can all come to an understanding that this picture needs a fic many fics written for it by many people. Slytherin!Harry, Harry and Draco friendship, and Flirty!Draco hitting on Ravenclaw!Hermione. DO WANT.

Also, head canon says that in this AU, Hermione's in the year before them.* So, now we get Draco with The World's Worst Hidden Crush** on that Girl Who's A Year Ahead of Him.

Yes. This needs to Be A Thing.

:D

*Given that her birthday's September 19, let's say that she made the cut-off for the class of '97.
** Except to Captain Oblivious (Harry) and Oh My God, You're So Annoying, Malfoy, Go Away (Hermione)

And if there is a Yule Ball (THERE IS ALWAYS A BALL), Draco is pining away because he knows Hermione can go but he is still one academic year too young and angsts about who she may go with, until she asks him (or someone else asks him/he connives to get himself invited by an upper year and goes to insert himself in her path).

My apologies for the late reply, I got swamped with some stuff! I don't know when this will be done, but I could not resist scribbing down some words. XD

YES, YULE BALL. THERE IS ALWAYS A BALL.

As they walked toward the door, Draco paused and looked in the mirror above his trunk. "These robes make me look older, right? At least fifth year. Maybe sixth, if you didn't know me?"

Harry stared at him."Uh, I guess?" Harry couldn't see much of a difference, but he'd long ago learned not to argue with Draco about clothes. It only made Draco annoyed and take more digs at Harry's own haphazard wardrobe.

"I think it's all the black. Definitely makes me look at least a few years older," Draco muttered distractedly, as he ruffled his hair and frowned at the mirror.
