Ravenclaw Royalty
Y/N is Ravenclaw’s golden girl. She’s brilliant, effortlessly put together, and born into one of the Wizarding World’s oldest and most respected families. She’s clever without trying to prove it, confident without demanding attention, and completely unimpressed by the Malfoy name. With Hermione Granger, Daphne Greengrass, and Luna Lovegood as her closest friends, she has her own life, her own reputation, and absolutely no interest in Draco Malfoy’s opinion of her. Draco genuinely cannot stand Y/N. She beats him in class, challenges him without hesitation, and has an infuriating habit of shutting down his arrogance before immediately moving on like their argument meant nothing. What Y/N considers an amusing, mostly one-sided rivalry, Draco considers a matter of personal dignity. Eighth year only makes it worse. When McGonagall pairs Hogwarts’ two highest-performing students for a year-long advanced magic project, Draco is forced to spend considerably more time with the one person he’d prefer to defeat from a safe distance. Except somewhere between late nights in the library, petty competitions, Hogsmeade trips, parties, mutual friends, ridiculous arguments, and moments when they accidentally make a terrifyingly good team, their rivalry begins to change. Draco discovers Y/N is considerably more fun when she’s laughing with him instead of at him. Y/N discovers there’s more to Draco than the arrogant pure-blood prince she’s spent years putting in his place. And he eventually faces a deeply humiliating realization: Arguing with Y/N has somehow become the best part of his day.
