Wow! That sounds incredible. I've never had anything so scary happen to me, but I know just what you're describing. With regards to canon I do feel like there's a reason all Harry gets to is shock. JKR's really clear about emotions because they're always connected to the plot. If she wanted Harry to either be sympathetic to Malfoy or not sympathetic, she'd have let him move on to that.
