Context: Draco hates himself for calling Hermione a Mudblood when they were kids, so he decides to stop after that year and not interact with her nor even mention her name in any sentence, but 5 years later when Bellatrix is torturing Hermione for information, she carves the very same slur that Draco called Hermione ...
The only reason Draco knew about the Weasleys being 'inferior' in any way was Lucuis Malfoy's pre-meditated education about the class divide. He thought of Hermione as a mudblood because he was taught to believe that muggle borns are the untouchables of the wizarding world.
In a July 2005 interview, Rowling added that Draco, unlike Harry, never feels remorse for his actions: "I thought of Draco as someone who is very capable of compartmentalising his life and his emotions, and always has done. So he's shut down his pity, enabling him to bully effectively.
In Harry Potter, JK Rowling confirmed that Draco was actually in love with Hermione but didn't know how to fully express his emotions. If things were different and he told Hermione about how he felt, do you think they could've had a chance? No.
Draco simply hated Harry (because he was famous), hated Ron (because he was poor), and conveniently hated Hermione (because he was not pureblood). These very personal hatreds made his teasing actions seem like immature habits, so very few readers hated Draco.
Tom Felton Says Harry Potter Was Constantly Crushing On Draco Malfoy - IMDb. Harry Potter had a few love interests during his time at Hogwarts. Though he eventually settled down with Ginny Weasley, he also had a thing for Cho Chang in his earlier school years. Then, of course, there's his secret love for Draco Malfoy…
He may be very well afraid of werewolves, but in that moment, his greatest fear was definitely Voldemort , who at any moment was at risk of killing him or greatly tormenting and punishing him and his family (and he takes great personal honor in his family).
What did J.K. Rowling say about Draco and Hermione?
They both were anxious for something in there lives and I think they almost should have been together. Plus J.K Rowling also said that the only reason Draco made fun of Hermione is because he had feelings for her.
Why does Harry become obsessed with Draco in the sixth book? I think 10% of the obsession was because Draco was behaving suspiciously, but 90% was because it was a way of dealing with Sirius' death.
He was having a mental breakdown due to trouble with the vanishing cabinet, worried about his parents, and realizing that being a Death Eater isn't quite what he hoped it would be. Plus he befriended Moaning Myrtle, I imagine her misery also rubbed off on him.
Dobby. A house-elf who was utterly devoted to Harry Potter, Dobby put himself at great risk (and in serious physical pain) when he went out of his way to protect the young wizard from what Dobby knew would be significant danger.
In the Pottermore introduction to Slytherin, it says: nowadays you'll find plenty of people in Slytherin house who have at least one Muggle parent. So that suggests half-bloods are allowed, but not Muggle-borns.
When Draco Malfoy called Hermione Granger a Mudblood in 1992, he was nearly attacked by several members of the Gryffindor Quidditch team and was nearly cursed by Ronald Weasley. When the Chamber of Secrets was opened he stated "You'll be next, Mudbloods!".
However, as he matured, Draco began to question these beliefs. He fell in love with Astoria Malfoy, who didn't meet his family's pure-blood expectations, and was even willing to let the Malfoy bloodline end to protect her.
Harry lowered his hand on Draco's back, tracing soft patterns in return while Draco took the sides of Harry's head and deepened the kiss. But, Harry didn't give up, instead of a slow, passionate kissing, it became a struggle for dominance in the kiss.
Rowling even suggested that Draco bullying Hermione was like adolescent hair pulling on the playground. She has also said that his secret feelings for her did in fact influence his actions at the Malfoy Manor and the final battle of Hogwarts.
What did Voldemort ask Draco to do in Half-Blood Prince?
So, during the summer between his fifth and sixth years at Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy was tasked with the assassination of Albus Dumbledore to restore his family to Voldemort's good graces.
Nobody sent him, and since he was still working for the Malfoys at the time, he had to punish himself for approaching Harry without permission. Dobby came on his own initiative, because he loved Harry for his reputation of defeating Voldemort in the last war and he thought Harry was in danger from Dobby's own master.
Did you know that Hermione's Boggart was Professor McGonagall telling her that she had failed all of her exams? Yup 3rd book. Would have loved to have seen that in the films! Here's hoping the series keeps it in!
Helena Bonham Carter said that her character was afraid of Harry because she couldn't understand how a young boy was capable of overpowering Lord Voldemort.
Draco's boggart would likely be in the form of the Grim Reaper with young Malfoy's own face under its hood. Surprisingly, Lord Voldemort was not Draco's greatest fear. …said Malfoy loudly. “… I'm about to kill you –” “…
