I guess, I just. I honestly cannot ever "buy" a friendship between Harry and Draco. Even in UL, I enjoy the fic but... I can't say that it really feels like it works within canon. It's enjoyable, and so it's a stretch that I can accept. But it's not emotionally fullfilling in that, "ohmygod, Draco and Harry LOVE EACH OTHER SO MUCH" friends vibe that I can get from other pairings in other fandoms. Because I just don't see it happening. At all. Ever. Not while they're at Hogwarts. (carefully constructed future fic is a whole different discussion)
Doesn't mean that I can't read people who write that, but. One part of me always rebels and so it's not 100% satisfactory. It doesn't "do the job" that friends into love pairings give me.
but then, that's just how I see it. and am not The Master Of The Universe. (damn!)
