i think people don’t understand what harry potter actually means to me i mean this boy has made me so confident about myself and has taught me to never give up, i mean he’s faced death like 983498534 times and it wasn’t really a big deal to him and all the characters in the series, they all had an impact on my life somehow and i swear to god if you tell me harry potter is not my life i will break your bones
![The Magic Begins Challenge [✖] #9 A character you feel the need to defend : Draco Malfoy
But I thought of Draco as someone who is very capable of compartmentalizing his life and his emotions, and always has done. So he’s shut down his pity, enabling him to bully effectively. He’s shut down compassion - how else would you become a Death Eater? So he suppresses virtually all of the good side of himself. But then he’s playing with the big boys, as the phrase has it, and suddenly, having talked the talk he’s asked to walk it for the first time and it is absolutely terrifying. And I think that that is an accurate depiction of how some people fall into that kind of way of life and they realize what they’re in for. I felt sorry for Draco.
