In fanfiction where Lucius Malfoy is attracted to Hermione, how would their relationship be received in the wizarding world?

Well, it might start off very coldly. Lucius would be reluctant to accept help from a mudblood like Hermione in his eyes. But Hermione, being persistent, would keep pushing to help him. As she starts to break down his walls, Lucius might find himself drawn to her in a strange way. Maybe he starts to see her as a powerful ally rather than an inferior. And Hermione might start to understand the pressures that made Lucius the way he was before. This could lead to a relationship that has elements of mutual understanding, respect, and perhaps even a bit of attraction as they both discover new sides of each other during their time together.

One possible plotline could be that Hermione is magically bound to Lucius in some way during a complex spell gone wrong. This forces them to interact and gradually, she discovers a different side of him that she's attracted to. For example, he might show kindness towards a house - elf in front of her, which challenges her pre - conceived notions of him.

Well, it would be extremely challenging. In the wizarding world, there are strong prejudices against Muggles. Draco, coming from a pure - blood family, would face a lot of opposition. His family might disown him. However, if he truly loves the Muggle, he might try to protect her from the dark side of the wizarding world. He could use his knowledge of magic to keep her safe while also trying to change the views of those around him about Muggles.

At first, their relationship might be filled with distrust. Hermione would be suspicious of Lucius' motives since he has a history of being a Death Eater. Lucius, on the other hand, might see Hermione as just a task he has to fulfill. But as they interact more, for example, when Lucius helps Hermione with her studies of some complex dark magic related knowledge (but in a non - evil way), they start to understand each other better.

Their relationship could start with hostility. Lucius might initially try to undermine Hermione's efforts in some wizarding matter, but she outsmarts him every time. This could gradually turn into a begrudging respect as he realizes her intelligence. For example, in a magical research competition.

By the end of the quest, their relationship could be completely transformed. They might see each other in a new light. Hermione could see that Lucius has more depth than she initially thought, and Lucius could come to respect Hermione's intelligence and tenacity. This could lead to a new understanding between them, and perhaps even a friendship or a more complex relationship that defies the expectations of the wizarding world.

It would be really complex. Draco would probably be initially very confused and maybe a bit resentful. He's been brought up with certain ideas about pure - blood superiority and Hermione being a 'Muggle - born' (in the original context). Now, if she's his aunt, he'd have to re - evaluate his views. He might also be jealous of Hermione's intelligence and the fact that she doesn't conform to the Malfoy family's more rigid ways.

Well, if Hermione were Lucius' niece in fanfiction, it would create a huge shift in relationships. For one, Hermione's connection to the Malfoy family would put her in a very different social position within the wizarding world. The Gryffindors might view her with more suspicion as she has ties to a well - known Slytherin family. Harry and Ron might initially be distrustful, but as they know Hermione well, they would likely try to understand. Draco, on the other hand, would have a complex reaction. He might be less antagonistic towards her as family ties could force him to be more civil, but at the same time, he would be confused about how to deal with a Gryffindor relative. And Snape would probably be extremely intrigued as Hermione is now related to one of his former students.

Their relationship might develop through a series of intellectual debates. Hermione is known for her sharp mind, and Lucius is no fool either. They could start arguing about topics like blood purity and the rights of different magical beings. These debates could lead to a grudging respect for each other's viewpoints, and from there, a more positive relationship could start to form.

Lucius could have a change of heart due to Hermione's bravery. When he witnesses her standing up to the dark forces fearlessly, he might be reminded of the qualities he once admired in the wizarding world before getting involved with the dark side. So he decides to protect her to preserve that bit of goodness.
