Hot take: the only reason people can ship Dramione and its polar opposite Romione is because Hermione isn't really well developed in the books. We don't know the extent of her motivations, goals and desires, so people just project onto her and turn her into whatever they want. Ron/bad people ships aren't as common as Ron/good people ships, because Ron is a fleshed out character who has his own dreams and deal-breakers. People can't project onto him that much because he's already his own person.

Hmm, I wouldn't say it's that.

Issue is, you've got tons of people who project onto characters that have ZERO in common with them.

How many times have you read

Hermione is totally an introvert

or

Hermione was HORRIBLY BULLIED by Ron

Neither of these statements are true: they're a result of people mistakenly projecting onto Hermione their own traits, because all they recognize of her is "girl who reads". They aren't interested in anything beyond the superficial resemblance (and let's be honest, had JKR made Hermione antagonistic or made her seriously fuck up on something important, half of them wouldn't be so eager to identify with her, either).

Hermione is empathetically NOT an introvert: she's not a shy, timid girl that hugs her book to her chest, demurely looks away and mumbles that she'd like some time alone. Hermione is an extravert with bad social skills, she wants to communicate, she wants to discuss, she thrives off a good debate. That's why she so often butts heads with Ron, and seems to "never argue with Harry" (which is false, but that's another projection/misconception): Ron bothers to engage with Hermione, while Harry will either tune her out or try to avoid her (especially more so later on when she lectures him about shit he doesn't want to do (Occlumency!)).

Ron's behaviour towards Hermione wasn't bullying either; it can even be said that Hermione was vaguely harrassing Harry and Ron ("Harry couldn't believe someone could be so interfering") because at first the points system and showing she's the best student are all that matter to her, and she sees them as wasting her effort. Harry and Ron just rebuke her then flee; that is THE OPPOSITE of bullying. Bullying is seeking a victim and never. Letting. Them. Go. It's deliberately picking the lone person in the crowd that's unlikely to fight back. It's deliberately isolating them so they can be an easier target, it's harrassing them til they snap because it's "funny".

Ron never does any of that. Ron might say or do stuff that Hermione dislikes and she'll make it known and the two will have a pointless argument then not talk to each other for an hour, then it's all forgiven and forgotten in time for dinner.

It IS true that Hermione is less defined as a character than Ron is, especially when it comes to their family situation: Ron has a context surrounding him. We know his family is big, that they're poor, and that he's the sixth son just before the only daughter (who was born less than a year after him, meaning Molly was already pregnant when Ron was a newborn!!). This gives us so much info about Ron already, how he might act, his relationship with his family, what topics he might be uncomfortable with...

Meanwhile Hermione's parents are dentists... that's it. We don't know what else there is. The name "Hermione" can indicate that maybe they're into English classics or Greek mythology and that's that. We don't know if they're lower middle class or upper class, we don't know if they're living in London or in some other place, we don't know anything about them and not knowing anything we can't put Hermione in a specific context. We don't even know if she actually was bullied at school, it's just a headcanon based on the collective experience of a generation of bookworm schoolgirls! Hermione does get characterization pertaining to social justice, but it becomes pretty secondary (not to mention a lot of it really seems like lip-service or virtue signalling when you consider how JKR goes about it).

Ultimately it's not really about Hermione, Ron or Draco; it's about shipping themselves with the Next-Door Sexgod Childhood Friend or the Redeemed Racist That Saw The Light.

Every time Harry was at Quidditch practice, learning shit with Dumbledore, learning shit with Snape, in detention, in the infirmary, held up by something to do with his fame, etc. Ron and Hermione were together. What do you think they were doing for 6 years in that time other than getting to know each other?

Hermione doesn’t seem to have any other friends besides the boys, and even though Ron could hang out with the boys from rest of the Gryffindor class of ‘98 (Seamus, Dean, Neville, etc.), whenever Harry resurfaces from where he’s been and seeks them out to tell them what he’s been up to, they’re almost always together waiting for him. y'all think they spent 6 years sitting in silence??

How come httyd has all the best romantic lines?

"You're as beautiful as the day I lost you." I literal classic.

"Astrid, you have me, no matter what. Okay, whatever that means, whatever you want it to mean. I am with you. There will always be a Hiccup and Astrid. Always." I sobbed. Cried real tears when I saw this for the first time.

"And, yes, I've thought about it a lot, I always thought it would be perfect." "This seems pretty perfect to me." "Yeah, I guess you're right."

"It's my betrothal gift to Astrid. It means we'll be together forever." He's such a romantic omg.

"You've always been there for me, and I want to always be there for you. I love you Astrid Hofferson, with everything I have, and I always will." Bros so SMOOTH.

“But with love comes loss, son. It's part of the deal. Sometimes it hurts, but in the end, it's all worth it. There's no greater gift than love.”

"I can't imagine a world without you in it." He's literally a goober HOW does he have this RIZZ.

LIKE??? HOW COME THESE TWO GOOBERS GET THIS? HOW ARE THEY SO DAMN SMOOTH! I WANT WHAT THEY HAVE OMG.

"Happy year of the dragon, Stormfly!"

I just felt like taking a step back from F&C and painting some characters that I haven't drawn in a while ~<3

[lexikitcat]

Instead of telling men to repress their emotions to appear stronger we should encourage them to sing incredibly dramatic ballads to process their emotions like in fictional movies. Maybe the world would heal faster. And also it would be very funny.

These are my personal favorites.

suzanne collins is such a genius... the cultural phenomena of her series leading to the hanging tree house remixes, mockingjay being milked for two (bad) movies, the capitol-inspired makeup palettes, the halloween costumes, the explosion of the market for dystopia, the butchering of her characters and removal of disabilities, disfiguration, and racial tension + representation to sell more tickets, the extra gale scenes to fuel discourse, and the audience showing up to cinemas to watch what was pretty honestly marketed to them (the jacob vs edwardification of the symbolic love story and also to watch children fight to the death) it's just so ridiculously ironic i would say you can't write this shit, but she did write about it... in The Hunger Games published 2008
