Some of you probably know me from my HP column on fanfiction.net and 
my long history of HP fanfic. I'm a person who fluctuates between 
different 'ships; currently I'm starting to drift away from H/H and 
being sucked into the trap of R/H and H/C (but I'll always be a 
Ginny/Draco shipper. Much more possible than Ginny/Harry, and 
so hard to do well in fanfic!)

D/G is extremely unlikely in canon at this vantage point.  Alicia/Sue 
is the first I know of to write it.  However, the more I think about 
it, the more appealing it seems *if* Draco reforms.

Recently I found a stream-of-consciousness fic centered around this 
pairing.  Written by a college student, I think the imagery of "fire 
and ice" is apt.  I'd really like to see this fic expanded to include 
Draco's thoughts.

D/G, then, is the "fire and ice" ship.  Much more Romeo and Juliet 
than D/H--the Weasleys and Malfoys loathe each other.  And much 
more "opposites attract" than R/H.

All in all, Flourish, you have good taste.  Just keep your resolve 
strong and tell your brain firmly, "I will *not* submit to the 
symptoms of R/H disorder!  I will be rational!  I will be a healthy 
H/H shipper!"  Whenever you do feel the symptoms of R/H coming on, 
quickly take a dose of PoU and e-mail us in the morning.
