Actually, I was picturing Draco Weasley as being more like the twins. He'd come up with lots of plans and jokes and probably put on shows when he was little.
Ouch, and I would've frowned at the horrid sight of Weasley Trio, funny how that works.
I think his attention-getting would probably be even more pronounced in a big family, but since the Weasleys would give him some positive feedback he might not be as nasty.
Agreed! I actually think Draco Weasley would've been a happier kid than Ron Weasley for the same reason. Draco strives for attention and approval, which I believe he'll get in the Weasley house with his outgoing personality.
Ron Malfoy...oh, poor Ron.
Ron Malfoy would probably be the gloomiest kid in the whole school. Unlike Draco, he hasn't the sort of built-in stamina that would help him withstand Lucius' harshness, and seeks out other sources(like his housemates)to get his self-esteem back.
I'm really not sure if he'd be all that nasty as a Malfoy
I really can't picture it either.. Perhaps, he'd be like a certain fanon!Draco stereotype-- secretly wishing he's friend with Harry Potter or part of any happy gang?
