(Sorry if this has been posted before :P)
I was curious about why people at Portkey have Draco/Ginny as one of their "official" ships, so I went looking for their D/G forums, and found this list.
I've selected the most lulzy reasons out of the lot to avoid the tl;dr.
- It's like Romeo and Juliet, without the crappy ending.
- It's about time the Dragon gets his fair maiden (Draco meaning 'Dragon' & Ginevra meaning fair/beauty)
- The colors green (Slytherin) and red (Gryffindor) remind us of Christmas.
- Because we also get the chance to see lots of hilarious Blaise and Pansy.
- because you would have to be mad not to ship them
- Because Slytherins and Gryffindors going together is helping house unity.
- because Blaise & Pansy were born to make Draco and Ginny be together, no matter what it takes.
- Because D/G fic invairably has a huge quality increase from D/Hr and H/D fic.
- Because H/G and Dransy are too predictable!
- There's so many different types of people that support it -- Harmonian and Heron, In-Canon Toad Flamer and In-Canon Chocolateer, people who like OOC Blaise & Pansy and people who don't...
- Because Draco's wit comes out best when paired with a Weasley. (It's a FACT!)
- I think D/G are good together because it makes ron really angry and keeps him busy going afer Draco and keeps him away from Hermione. Anything to keep ron away from Hermione is a good thing as far as I'm concerned.
- The thought of D/G having lots of pink haired kids is a cute idea *you know white hair mixed with red gives you pink! dang been watching too much anime lately*
- I like the dynamic that the fanfic writers for the D/G ship have for their stories, they way they have Draco and Ginny play off eachother is really interesting and makes for a good read.... as long as they are all still fully H/Hr compliant so I can read them of course.
- Because we're the CC ship least affiliated with the whole plagiarism scandal.
- Cause they're kids would look hot!
Of course, they didn't make it to a hundred. I'm guessing their brains exploded in the process.
Also, I love how most of their reasons have nothing to do with the ship itself. Way to prove the "awesomeness" of D/G...
*backs away from Portkey singing You give my ship a bad name*
