serpentinelion is hosting a
cliché fest, and that got me thinking. What are some of the popular Harry/Draco clichés? Of course, we have Cassandra Clare to thank for Leather Pants!Draco, and then there's the ever popular snarky! Draco or the ice prince! Draco or even the danceclub! Draco, grooving to his inner Brian Kinney in a mesh t-shirt as Harry mouth hits the floor. And let's not forget about Harry. We have CAPSlock! Harry, virginal!Harry, clueless! Harry, Auror! Harry, not to mention Auror!Draco. We have tie porn! wall sex! detention! sex and yummy, yummy Quidditch sex.
So what is your favorite Harry/Draco cliché, and which is your least favorite?
And why aren't more people writing tie porn?Fill out my poll on my livejournal.
To start things off, one of my favorite H/D clichés is
tie porn! Alpha!Harry. Nothing pushes my buttons more than a Harry that's in charge, whether he's taking down a row of Death Eaters with a flick of his wand, or telling Draco to wipe that pissy smirk off his face and get those damn robes off. NOW! (And Draco loves to get Harry all hot and bothered. He just won't admit it.) And one of my least favorite clichés is a Draco who is obsessed with his hair. I'm not sure who we have to blame for Hair Product! Draco, but unless it's done in jest, it makes me cringe every time I see it.
So what's yours? Feel free to elaborate in the comments. I will be posting the results at a later date.
