Dude, that totally depends on who's writing it.

Also, who are Sheldon and Penny? ::is clueless::

OK, so, I posted last night that [livejournal.com profile] frayach had done a really cool survey, Who Is Canon!Harry. And I linked to it. I also wanted to link to her new story, Inevitable, despite not having read it, because I'd heard it's awesome. Then I decided linking to something I'd never read (and never would) was really not on, and dropped that idea.

...and ended up linking to it anyway, thinking I was linking to Canon!Harry. ::facepalm::

There is (as far as I know) absolutely nothing wrong with her story, btw. I would totally read it, but [livejournal.com profile] frayach was wise enough to put warnings in, and a bunch of my squicks were among them. I've ignored squicks for her sake a few times and never been disappointed, but this time there were too many. Doh :(

So, mea culpa, and I'm pretty sure the links above are good. Please let me know if they're not.

Anyway, back to Canon!Harry. I was hoping to do the same thing for Draco that [livejournal.com profile] frayach did for Harry: ask a bunch of questions re. what you believe is canon about Draco, then post the results. Eg, would Draco be "reformed" after the war? Would he marry for love, or political advantage? Would he get a job, or live off his family's wealth? Would he be a good father? Is he brave?

Here's where I ask for help:

  • If this is already being done by someone else, could you point me in their direction? 'Cause there no sense reinventing the canon wheel ;)

  • If it's not being done anywhere else to your knowledge, what questions do you think I should include in the survey?

From: [identity profile] vasiliki.livejournal.com
-- How did Crabbe's death affect the dynamic of his friendship with Goyle?
-- Among his Slyterin mates, whom did he keep in touch with? (Goyle? Pansy? Blaise?) / Who is included in his and Asteria's social circle?
-- Where does he live after his wedding? Where do his parents live?
-- What is his relationship with Lucius immediately after the war? What about at the time of the Epilogue?
-- In what ways is he affected by what he witnessed / was forced to do during the war?


I'll be looking forward to that survey! That would be a lot more interesting than Canon!Harry, as JKR has already told us everything about Harry in excruciating detail in the books - and on top of that, she's kept his character consistent from the beginning to the end. But Draco wasn't treated the same way, so he has a lot more potential to be interpreted differently by the readers.
