I used to ship Buffy/Spike nonstop for the first few seasons of Buffy but as soon as they actually got together something was lost and the pairing just wasn't as enjoyable anymore.
I'm a Spuffy shipper and I feel that I already get everything from the show. Sex scenes, kisses, hugs, fights, even sweet, loving scenes. And at the end, Buffy finally conceeded that she does love Spike. So I don't dive into the Spuffy fanfiction world because everything, practically everything I could think of was already provided by Joss. Buffy fanfics don't hold much appeal to me now.

Well, they're still enjoyable as ever for me because the relationship grows from physical to emotional, so on different direction.

While, Trory my other ship. The possibility for them to get together was long ago closed. So, until now, I still hold on to dear life on fanfics.

Uh, I don't think I'm making any sense here.

deeta you made PERFECT sense. and thats exactly how I feel about Buffy/Spike and Trory. I think the show gave me enough Spuffy lovin to be happy. While Trory is so limited that I have to live through fanfics. But its all good.

The same goes for Dr/Hr, I guess thats why alot of Trory shippers ship Dr/Hr. We wont get much of them in the canon so we have to just think of all the possibilities.

Aw, Maz, it's seriously a good title. Even if Draco's detour wasn't to the good side, in our hearts we know it was to Hermione's room. He's naughty like that.

I'm still holding onto a small hope that Draco isn't all evil. I mean, were's the originality in that? A redeeming Draco is very much like Spike and how many people loved him (BtVS)?

Exactly! And I'd love for him to be redeemed. But that would take the focus off the whole Harry story

Plus in JKRs interviews, it really seems like she doesn't like Draco therefore there won't be much room for his character development, let alone redemption.

Why do I ship Draco/Hermione?

Hmm...opposites attract, horses kick each other becuase they love each other (some finnish thing)...I don't know.

Hr/D is one of the only het-ships I ship (the other two are Percy/Penelope and Marcus/Cho) But oh well

D/Hr, there's just something there.

I'm a sucker for the good girl/bad boy storyline. All my ships have it. Well all excpet my slash ships, but then it's the good girl/boy with the bad girl/boy.

When I first started reading HP fic it was HG/SS. It was only when I remembered from the movies the boy named Draco did I go out and find D/Hr fic. I've been hooked ever since. HP definetely has a way of sucking you in and never letting you go.

True but then again she could just trying to keep us away from the twists in her story. If she came out and said that Draco would be redeemed in the last book that would ruin alot of suspense. Like will he betray them, will he kill them, will they get him. Giving away whether or not he's redemed is a big thing and I wouldn't be surprised if she was leading everyone the opposite way.

I agree that she could be saying that she hated Draco just to hide away her twists. But maybe she just hates him. Draco Malfoy in the book is made like he's a 10 year old spoiled, stupid, childish, bully. And truthfully it gets in the way of my HP loving because there are parts of me that really like Draco. But JKR seems to trash him a lot in the book. Sigh, maybe she could finally come to her senses.

Reedemed Draco is my most favorite Draco besides SexCrazed Draco. Especially when he's very silent and dark The Draco in Bachelor Party is definitely an amazing potrayal.

Very true. I hope that's what she's going to do. All of a sudden liking a character that she's supposed to hate, and that's supposed to bad, would be a dead give away as to what she's going to do. And she always likes giving readers surprises.

I loved Draco in the Bachelor Party. I think the writer got him just right. I love that story. But sex-crazed!Draco or Snarky!Draco is so much fun to read.
