Summary: Draco as a Ravenclaw.

Excerpt:

It all happened because Draco was a little distracted that day. Things had not been going well. Father had been very cutting about Draco’s plan to smuggle a racing broom into Hogwarts, Crabbe had sat on his lunch on the train and Harry Potter had turned out to be a rude, insufferable gitface. It was not how Draco had pictured his first day.

It also happened because Draco had a tendency to babble when he was nervous.

So he sat in complete blackness, a stupid threadbare hat covering his eyes and its stupid voice ringing in his ears, and started to talk.

“Malfoy – that’ll be Slytherin, then…”

“Yes, please,” Draco said. “Or Ravenclaw, you know, that wouldn’t be bad either. Not Hufflepuff though, because otherwise I shall instantly transfer to Durmstrang.”

“Ravenclaw.” The Hat paused. “Interesting. Haven’t heard a Malfoy ask for another house for decades.”

“Er,” Draco said. “Actually, on second thoughts, scratch that, Slytherin, please. Just Slytherin, no also-rans, no second guessing. Slytherin!”

“Perhaps it’s time for a little diversity. RAVENCLAW!”

Maya has taken all her fics down since she became a published author.

I love this fic, SO MUCH. I love Maya’s humor and her Draco is TOTALLY AWESOME. I love how Draco tries to be a good Ravenclaw and how he still hates on Harry and his relationships with Hermione, and Cho, and Terry. GAH! SO MUCH LOVE!
