harry potter , age 11, briefly registering that the mean wizard boy who reminds him of dudley has reallyprettyhair
harry potter, age 13, spending a littletoo much time thinking about his most hated enemy and rival, draco malfoy (never mind lord voldemort, the man who literally tried to murder him and killed his parents)
harry potter, age 16, being really really confused when his chest monster inexplicably starts to rumble when draco freaking malfoy startsflirting with some of the drumstrang boys visiting hogwarts
harry potter, age 18, amicably breaking up with ginny wealsy after finally admitting to himself that the only time he’s really turned on anymore is after waking up sweaty and hard from super realistic dreams about himself and other men (“men” meaning a certain blonde-haired boy that looks suspiciously like a schoolmate that harry isn’t mentally prepared to name)
harry potter , age 21, (only after being told by hermione that he checks the paper everyday for the mention of a certain someone and that he basically only dates thin, snarky, blonde men) finally admitting that he may have a bit of a crush on draco bloody malfoy
harry potter, age 24, (upon seeing malfoy in person for the first time since his revelation) losing all self control as he runs up to draco in the middle of diagonal alley, grabs him by the arm, and practically begs him to join him for a coffee
harry potter , age 25, feeling happy and complete and home for what is probably the first time ever as he lays comfortably intertwined with his ablouslety perfect boyfriend of one year
Draco while sober: Harry: I love you. Draco: Shit, Potter, can you stop being so gay for just five minutes?!
Draco while drunk: Harry: I love you. Draco: *sobbing into Harry’s shoulder* Harry, I don’t even deserve you.
Harry while sober: Harry: God, just looking at your arse makes me randy as fuck. Draco: Charming.
Harry while drunk: Harry: Sometimes it hurts to look right at you, that’s how beautiful you are, baby; you’re so pure, your hair is like silken, spun gold, your eyes sparkle like diamonds– Draco: I don’t know him, please help me.
As I am looking for references for something I’m working on, it’s rather impossible to find real life models that embodies all the subconscious traits I put on Harry and Draco in their twenty somethings (because obviously underwear models haven’t fought dark lords lol).
Messy hair & pointy-ness aside, but like personality and history that somehow manifests in their physical appearance? And not cosmetic things like scars, glasses, tattoos, or hair styles, but specific features that in combination make it H&D…I guess writing it down also helps me form a better mental image haha, maybe I’ll try drawing something based on this later!
Headcanon Harry: an unassuming handsomeness, coupled with raw power
strong stubborn square jaw, dimples are a plus
soft puppy dog eyes that become intense and determined (on the battlefield and in the bedroom)
thick bow lips for kissing everywhere *cough* rimming *cough*
wide boyish smile of a marauder’s son
straight brows for sassy-ness and sarcasm, accentuates eye rolling
slightly prominent bridged nose (has been broken a few times), wider nostrils to catch glasses from falling off face
Headcanon Draco: the definition of a beautiful man, possibly part veela
high cheekbones that will cut you before you can get past its defenses
patented glare perfected at age 3, has evolved into a smolder over time
delicate mouth, like its been painted on and begging to be bitten
natural down-turned pout that always gets its way, hides a sharp witted tongue
arched brows for silent threats and flirting across the room
patrician straight nose with high bridge, narrow nostrils for sniffing at potion ingredients and muggles
okay but imagine harry making a group chat for his friends from hogwarts just because and draco is there too but he literally never talks because he’s all like “that’s a muggle thing phew” but really he didn’t know how to use that
AND the first time that draco actually talks in the group chat is to send a video of harry who stubbed his toe on a table and is lying on the floor curled up into a ball screaming “I DIDN’T KILL VOLDEMORT FOR THIS”
and then the camera switches to draco’s bored face and with the most monotone voice ever he says “the boy who lived twice” and he’s holding a clock that shows 4:27am
I’m pretty sure harry fucking potter would be dead obvious when he has decided that he wants to marry Draco. He’ll say something like “just out of pure curiosity what’s your ring size?” and Draco would spit his drink.
