Ah man... I started drawing this on Friday and just had to finish it (despite the extremely long queue of things to be finished, lol).

After reading DH, I came to a shocking conclusion; I no longer want Pansy and Draco to be married in canon. :O I know. OMG, right? I'm just as shocked as you are. I'll try and explain...

Basically, in canon, I don't think that Pansy would ever truly be able to understand Draco anymore... why he did the things he did, and why he thinks the way that he does. I still ship them before DH though. I reckon she tried really hard to understand, but I don't think she ever could.

What I want Draco to do after DH is basically travel the world for a while. Really have a chance to recover, and reassess things. I want him to meet "his wife" in Greece. I know. It's so random. But I can just image in it in fan fiction form, LOL. She's not actually Greek (though her grandfather was). She's there on holiday with some friends, and they meet after a while.

I really wanted a character who he could start afresh with, ya know? Someone who he could, over time, really open up to, and someone who understood him, and accepted and loved him.

I imagine that she was at least six or seven years ahead of Draco at Hogwarts (and was a Hufflepuff, ooooooh the IRONY, LOL), but wasn't in England during the time of the war (she and her parents went abroad a few years previous to the uprising).

Since I'm a Rosie/Scorpius shipper (that is TOTALLY canon btw, LOL), I'll say that I reckon she'd get on really well with Hermione (much to the distaste of their husbands, LOL). And I reckon she'd get on REALLY well with Narcissa. :3 I want her to be just a super nice person :D

And despite knowing all about her... I have no idea what to name her. I'm thinking something Greekish... maybe Greek mythologyish... or Charlotte. LMFAO. TOTALLY a Greek name is Charlotte. XDDD I think that's just because she reminds me of Charlotte from Sex in the City though, LOL. SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME.

ANYWAY. About the actual PICTURE. LOL. Oh... I should mention that this is Mrs. Draco Malfoy, Scorpius Malfoy and Draco Malfoy... though I guess you could probably tell that after my ramble, right? And, like... the title... ^^; haha.

Draco is wearing an Appleby Arrows Quidditch jumper. amberpalette asked what I thought Draco might do for a living after the war, and my knee jerk reaction was "be like Paris Hilton" a.k.a nothing, but be rich. LOL. But I had a think about it, and I'd kinda like to see Draco play Quidditch when he returns to England (after meeting and forming a relationship with the, as previously mentioned, unnamed Mrs Draco Malfoy, lol). I mean, he IS a good Quidditch player... he only ever lost to Harry so far as we're told, and Harry could DEFINITELY have played for England, let alone just A Quidditch Club. And it just must have been SO HARD for Draco to give it up in HBP, that I think he deserves to do something he actually really enjoys. :) Oh, and I think he should be a Chaser.

I have no idea what Scorpius is pointing at, LOL. I imagine him to be the happiest child you've ever met. :D Just coz. And I love his little outfit. Awwwww... *pinches cheek*

And I am in love with Mrs Malfoy's coat. Oh yes. I wants it. It's based on one from a 1957 Harper's Bazaar magazine. Yes, I know, I'm a fashion freak. :D

So... all of this came about because buttfacemakani and I had a devastatingly long Skype chat just basically about the Malfoys, and where we saw them going and what we thought of them in DH and stuff. I made Mrs Malfoy's hair dark brown/black because she was adamant that Scorpius should have black hair until she realised he was meant to be the spit of Draco, LOL, and we spent a very long time debating about her hair colour of all things, LOL.

We also have cooked up a daughter for them because Lucius's reaction to a girl would be HILLARIOUS. LOL. XDDDD Something along the lines of "What is it?" I think... haha!! But I don't think I'll ever draw them with a daughter (unless I decide to draw the Lucius comic I came up with to go with it...).

Oh, and Heather said that she thought Draco's hair loss may have been more to do with the war more than anything... and it'd be hot, like Jude Law's hair loss. Yes. I do actually have a quote with her saying Draco would be hot. I know. The sky has fallen.

And wow... this is REALLY freaking long. If you got through that, you get a cookie, and a Malfoy of your choice.

This is dedicated to amberpalette, buttfacemakani and chen_san, mah Malfoy sisters. <3

Also, Tonks having a Willow wand made from the Whomping Willow is TOTALLY my new canon for her thanks for the wonderful fernwithy's fan fiction.

AND. I got the ENTIRE seasons 1-7 of Buffy. OH YES. I'm currently up to disk three of season one. Eeeeeeee!! BUFFY LOVE!!!

Peace,
