My Favourite Fictional Characters
Heyy and welcome back to diaryofanoverthinker today I’ll be talking about one of my favourite fictional character and why. I’m also going to make a series of this, so I’ll make one blog a week for a few weeks discussing my favourite characters from different books/movies and why. So sit back relax and enjoy.
Who and from where
The first character I’m writing about is Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter. He’s like a world wide favourite. I’m starting with him because it’s nice to start with the originals
Why
Now for the interesting part why is he my favourite character. Well honestly it’s because he was just really misunderstood. Draco was never a bad guy, he was forced into becoming a death eater and he was only mean to the golden trio because he was jealous of their true friendship. Another reason he was mean to the golden trio is because he looked forward to Hogwarts just to befriend the famous Harry Potter who immediately turned down his friendship.
At first I hated Draco and I’m sure that was most of our first opinions, maybe it still is… However later I realized he was never the bad guy and to be honest I think Harry was Draco’s bully more than Draco was Harry’s. I mean he did use sectumsempra on Draco…
Another reason I think Draco was an amazing is in the Cursed Child( I know most don’t consider this a canon book but I do and it is a factor to why I like Malfoy) Draco was trying to be nice but Harry didn’t care. He even told his own son not to talk to Malfoy’s because he was a “bad influence” that was an unfair judgement in my opinion ,and it was made simply by his last name
What some people think and why I disagree
Lots of people think that fans just like Draco because of Tom Felton and that he did in fact have a choice because of what Sirius and Regulus did. I disagree ,sure Sirius and Regulus were born to a family of death eaters too and sure they chose against it but they were different people.
While I do believe you make your own choices and everything is your own doing as you have the final decision in the end it is still partly like 2% of the other person’s influence. Malfoy cared about what others thought of him and he undoubtably cared about what his father thought of him.
Another thing is `Narcissa never wanted him to be a death eater it was all Lucious and he truly had no choice. He even tried to get rid of the dark mark by scratching/cutting it but it didn’t come off. Another thing proving he was actually good is in the 4th book he tried saving Hermione because she was a muggle born .Lastly he also said he didn’t recognize Harry in the Deathly Hallows which saved his life he also tossed the trio their wands in the same scene so he is in fact not a bad person.
Conclusion
In conclusion he didn’t have a choice and he was actually a good person. While harry the supposed hero wasn’t all that good and was actually kind of a bully.
Also this is entirely my opinion it doesn’t make it right or wrong its just what I think/believe
Well that was today’s blog I hope you enjoyed it and look forward to more. I’ll carry on with another fictional character next week but until then you’ll have to wait..
