I will attach to the oddest things in fiction (my big crush from Watership Down was BigWig, I don't wanna talk about it) and there are several Draco's in fanfic that I love. Just not the one in the books.
Buffy: You tossed that vamp like he was a... little teeny vamp. Riley: You wanna go again? C'mon. I bet this place is just teeming with aerodynamic vampires.

Elena, Deena is finding the bits of V!Giles posted so far to be flinchy because she's afraid of what happens next.

Thanks for all the fish.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I cannot wait for them to get to the part with the thing in the thing where they do that thing.

Oh, yes, they will scream. With the thing.

Thanks for all the fish.
CAN NOT WAIT.
As it is I compulsively reread the e-mails.

Which is good, because it keeps me motivated, because I want to see your reactions.

Thanks for all the fish.
At first I thought that you should know what my reaction will be. Then I realised that there is a myriad of possibilities. Will I squeal? Will I gasp? Will I weep? Will I pant? Will I somehow manage to combine all these reactions and suffer a massive embolism?

No embolisms for Elena! And do you really think I've told you everything? Some things should be a surprise, my dear.

Thanks for all the fish.
I'm quite sure that you've not told me everything. What I do know haunts me.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty
why have so many writers fixated on him, and did they invent his charm wholesale?
As Katie said, he's blond and evil. He's a natural choice if you want to make a suggestion that things might not be as black and white as Harry, and the canon, see them; if you personally find Harry as annoying as Harry finds Draco, you find yourself on Draco's side; and there's also the big thing of HP fandom as a whole, which is that the fun part is writing the characters not as presented in canon, but as adults. And Draco-- being so incrediably 'sterotyped' in one role, bascially little!Lucius-- has plenty of room to be developed in a hundred different ways into an interesting adult character.
Also, evil. And blond. And, of course, amazingly good looking. And potentially having an obsession with Harry, though frankly I find it a bit hard to read anything more into the canon than 'Potter is very famous; let's pick on him'. (Although I will admit that Hermione probably has a bit of a nearly-canon unmentionable crush on Draco. Though that may be me projecting.)
