In many fanfictions about the Battle of Hogwarts, Draco is often portrayed in a more complex light. Sometimes he's shown as having a change of heart. He might be conflicted between his family's loyalty to Voldemort and his own sense of right and wrong. He could be depicted as secretly helping the good side during the battle, perhaps by providing information or not actively engaging in harming the students of Hogwarts.
He could play the role of a double agent. Since he's from a Death Eater family but has his own misgivings about Voldemort, he might pretend to be on Voldemort's side while actually working against him. This adds an interesting layer of intrigue to the fanfiction story.
In a fanfic set during the Great Hall battle at Hogwarts, Harry and Draco's bond might be explored in an unexpected way. For example, Draco could be in a difficult situation where Harry has the choice to either save him or let him face the consequences. Harry, being the hero he is, decides to save Draco. This act of kindness makes Draco question his previous beliefs about Harry. As they continue through the battle, they form a tentative bond based on mutual survival and a new understanding of each other.
Well, in a fanfic set during the Great Hall battle at Hogwarts regarding Harry and Draco's bond, we could explore a scenario where the battle is a result of a dark spell gone wrong. Harry and Draco are two of the most powerful students in the school at that moment. Initially, Draco might be hesitant to help Harry, thinking it's a Gryffindor problem. But then he realizes that the whole school, including Slytherin, is at risk. Harry, on the other hand, has always seen some good in Draco. As they join forces during the battle, they exchange stories about their families and their own insecurities. This sharing of personal experiences strengthens their bond, and they become an unstoppable duo in the fight to save the Great Hall.
Well, it could be a fanfiction where Draco is jailed in the Hogwarts setting. Maybe he's been caught doing something bad, like getting involved in dark magic activities or plotting against other students. But without reading it, it's hard to say for sure.
In Hogwarts fanfiction, Draco could potentially crawl through secret passages. There are many hidden corridors and tunnels in Hogwarts, and Draco might be exploring them in a sneaky way, perhaps on a secret mission or just to find a quiet place away from others.
It could make Draco feel exposed and vulnerable at first. But if Hogwarts uses the knowledge from his memories to help him, Draco might develop a newfound respect and loyalty towards Hogwarts. He could see it as an entity that truly cares about him rather than just a place of learning.
If they were friends before Hogwarts, it could create a lot of internal conflict at Hogwarts. Draco might be torn between his new Slytherin friends who dislike Harry and his long - standing friendship with Harry. He might try to keep their friendship a secret, which could lead to misunderstandings between them.
Some fanfiction also pairs Draco with Luna Lovegood. Their pairing is quite unique as Luna has such an eccentric personality and Draco is more reserved in a way. Together, they can have some really interesting adventures. It could be that Luna helps Draco see the world in a different light, and Draco provides Luna with a more stable presence in her rather whimsical life.
No, it's not a common element. While Hogwarts fanfiction can cover a vast range of themes and ideas, the concept of a 'Draco Leash' is rather unusual and not something you'd typically find in mainstream fanfics.
