Line 5:
** Several? Draco/Hermione romance stories on Fanfiction.net outnumber Ron/Hermione, Harry/Hermione or Harry/Ginny stories by a substantial margin, which may demonstrate just how popular this trope is.
*** Hermione is certainly not the least likely pairing Draco has found himself in in fanon. Try Harry, or Hagrid.
** This was thoroughly mocked in the ''[[Potter Puppet Pals (Fanfic)|Potter Puppet Pals]]'' episode "Draco Puppet", where Harry responds to the numerous fan requests to introduce a Puppet Pal Draco. Having established that he's doing this, Harry spends the rest of the video in [[Sarcasm Mode]] as he introduces us to our new puppet friend:
{{quote| '''Draco Puppet:''' I'm Draco! I'm really rich, and I'm really proud of the fact that I'm [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|pureblooded white! I mean wizard!]] Tee hee!<br />
'''Harry:''' What a wonderful person! }}
** A good possible explanation for Draco's fandom is [[Tom Felton]]'s portrayal of the character, especially in Half-Blood Prince, as well as possible [[Adaptational Attractiveness]].
** At the end of ''Deathly Hallows'', Draco at the very end appears to have {{spoiler|reformed and become the responsible parent of a Hogwarts student}}.
* [[JKJ. K. Rowling]] has [[Word of God|spoken out]] against people who dare to suggest Draco/Voldemort aren't as horrible as she insists they are. Significant parts of Book 6 are meant as [[Take That|Take Thats]] against those people. For example, Tom lived in an orphanage all right (just like [[Little Orphan Annie (Comic Strip)|Little Orphan Annie]]), but the most horrible thing in said orphanage was... [[Creepy Child|Himself]]. He used his magic to bully other kids and was feared both by them and by the staff. It is clear that he was never a good guy...
** Tom/Ginny shippers like to compare the plot of ''[[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets|Harry Potter]]'' to that of ''[[The Phantom of the Opera]]'' with Tom as Erik, Ginny as Christine, and Harry as Raoul. [[Analogy Backfire]], though they'll never know, since Erik is ''also'' a [[Draco in Leather Pants]].
* ''[[My Immortal]]'', in addition to fitting this Trope to a T, at one point does, in fact, feature Draco in leather pants.
