“Give it up, Granger. We’ve had our N.E.W.T. results for a week. What can possibly have earned your continued academic devotion in the last four days of term?”

Hermione placed a hand in the open pages of a third edition of Narayanan’s Elidated Incantations: Shifting Paradigms in Articulated Casting and looked down at Draco.

He lay beside her in the field of grass outside the Quidditch pitch, prone and with his eyes closed, baptising himself in the benevolence of a cloudless day in late spring.

“We can’t all depend on our inexhaustible fortunes and the good looks we inherited from our mothers, Malfoy. I’m off to my orientation in just ten weeks—”

“Which means you ought to close that benighted book and come down here.”

“And nap with you on your patch of warmed earth like an overgrown house cat?”

He nodded. “Precisely.”

Me:

I want to spread the love and joy to the Reylo community as a whole. So many wonderful people. And such a privilege to finally meet in person people that have been a blessing to me since I first came onto Tumblr. Thanks so much to our hostess with the mostest @perrydowning for planning such a graceful and fun event. The company and food were awesome, not to mention the nice touch of Kylo and Rey as bride and groom.

It was great meeting new people, and quite powerful to meet my Reylo Thirst Order girls extraordinaire who truly had some cool swag that topped anything inside the convention. Oh the art, the pins, the bracelet… and it « rocked » @obsessivepropulsive !

Draco is a Byronic hero, I think. And hardly a hero at all really. He’s an antihero who has gone out of his way to intentionally accentuate his worst traits. I don’t believe I’ve ever really written him as a hero in Manacled, except maybe to Hermione personally and exclusively.

When I first started writing Manacled I was fairly new to writing and I wanted readers to share Hermione’s perspective, but when everyone overwhelmingly hated Draco and urged me to omit the “eventual romance” tag and just have Hermione kill him, I was worried that I might have made him too utterly irredeemable.

I’m not writing him as the most romantic and ideal partner to marry, I just wanted to make him someone whose choices might be wrong but still had a legitimate motive and reasoning behind, so that people could look at him and say, “you are not a good person, but I can understand why you did what you did, even though it was wrong.”

Imagine being forced to do something awful to someone you love in order to keep them alive. That’s Draco’s predicament here. 

People can make enormous mistakes and do bad things and still be worthy of love and forgiveness. 

In Manacled Draco does indeed have a very compelling reason to commit many of the crimes he has– like Ben, he too is a victim. He took the Mark at age 16. He is forced into two nonconsensual relationships– first with Astoria, second with Hermione. Failing to comply with any of these orders would mean death for him and/or his loved ones. 

From our perspective, much of Draco’s behavior is not morally upstanding. But from Draco’s own perspective, he is behaving according to his own moral code. He has killed, for instance, because he thought it was the right thing to do. He has said as much, repeatedly. 

It’s fiction.

Hermione felt the pounding in her ears again. She would see him for the first time since the Great Hall, gaunt and stricken at the Slytherin table with his mother clutching his arm. She hadn’t meant to look for him. Not in the corridors, not beneath the white sheets of the fallen, not on the way to the Chamber of Secrets with Ron, but she was a stupid girl.
