- Harry, however, had never been less interested in Quidditch; he was rapidly becoming obsessed with Draco Malfoy.
- —Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Drarry is the slash ship between Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter from the Harry Potter fandom.
Canon[]
First year[]
The two boys first meet at Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. They are both in the shop to get their Hogwarts robes. Harry dislikes him almost immediately because of Draco's arrogant and self-centered nature. He reminds Harry of Dudley. Draco comments on Hogwarts not accepting the other kind, referring to Muggle-borns. He also calls Hagrid a savage. Before Draco can learn his name, Harry leaves the shop. He tells Hagrid about his encounter with the pale boy.
When Harry arrives at Hogwarts, they meet again. Rumor has it that Harry Potter is on the train, and Draco goes to introduce himself. He holds o his hand and offers to be friends. Harry coldly refuses, causing Draco's cheeks to flush. This almost leads to a fight between the boys, but they back off after Goyle is bitten by Scabbers. From that moment on, the boys were rivals at Hogwarts. Draco was jealous that Harry Potter was a hero and believed strongly in blood purity, insulting many in Gryffindor.
They are both present at the Sorting Ceremony. Later that night, Harry has a dream about Draco. He is wearing Professor Quirrell's turban and is struggling to remove it. Draco laughs at him and turns into Snape before a green light flashes and Harry wakes up.
They have Potions together for the year. During their first class, Draco laughs at Harry when he is unable to answer Professor Snape's questions. They also have flying lessons together. Harry was delighted to learn that Draco was mounting his broom incorrectly. Draco makes a scene and steals Neville's remembrall. He flies away with it, and Harry chases him and gets it back.
In the Great Hall, Draco approaches Harry and jokingly asks when he's going to take the train back to the Muggles. He then challenges Harry to a duel, which Ron accepts on his behalf.
Second year[]
During Wood and Harry’s continuation of Quidditch training, they are interrupted by rivaling team, Slytherin, and are approached by Wood’s personal rival, Flint. The team announces that they have received a new Seeker, the recruit being no other than Draco Malfoy. Draco states that his father, Lucius Malfoy, purchased Nimbus 2001s for the entire Slytherin team. Confidence is present in his tone as he says this due to the Nimbus 2001s being scientifically swifter and more efficient than Harry’s Nimbus 2000.
Third year[]
Draco revists Harry alongside Crabbe and Goyle on the train and unhesitantly insults Ron off of his poorness in his family. Before a clash can ensue, Draco notices Professor Lupin, the new Magic Against the Dark Arts instructor, and retreats due to the fear of being caught by one of the Hogwart’s staff. When one of the many Azkaban guards horrifies Harry to the point of him fainting, Draco does not fail to hear about this, and confronts Harry on the matter. During the feast to celebrate a new school year, Harry and Ron glance over the Slytherin table and notice Draco mimicking Harry’s fit to his many peers, earning a laugh from most.
During Hagrid’s first lesson as a professor, Draco insults him for allowing the students access to man-eating books. He pushes the degradation until Harry, under his breath, orders him to keep quiet. When informing the class on how to properly behave when in the presence of a hippogriff, Harry notices Draco sneering and discussing with Crabbe and Goyle. He immediately acknowledged that Draco was planning something unethical, but did not confront him. As Harry rode Buckbeak, Draco is visibly disappointed that he had succeeded in not falling, which would result in the latter getting seriously injured. Once Draco reached his turn with the hippogriff, he earned its trust before unhesitantly insulting it, which Hargid claimed, is a deadly decision.
Buckbeak tore a large gash in his arm and he was carried to the nursery, and Harry identified what Draco’s plan was when witnessing him converse with his group. When Draco revisits Harry in the Potions class hosted by Professor Snape, he sits next to Harry and Ron. Milking his injury, he orders the two close friends to perform his assignment for him, much to the aggravation of the two. Harry angrily asks if Draco’s intentions for his incident was to get Hagrid fired, which the latter states is partially true alongside a vague secondary reason; simply stating that there will be more benefits to come for his actions. Eavesdropping on Harry and Ron's conversation regarding Sirius Black, Draco drawlingly states that Harry should cast revenge on the rogue criminal. Frustrated that the latter isn’t being clear enough for him to understand, Harry repeatedly asks what he means before being interrupted by the continuation of Snape’s lesson.

Quotes[]
Philosopher's Stone[]
- “Harry had never believed he would meet a boy he hated more than Dudley, but that was before he met Draco Malfoy.”
- — Chapter Nine: The Midnight Duel
Chamber of Secrets[]
- “ What wouldn’t he give now for a message from Hogwarts? From any witch or wizard? He’d almost be glad of a sight of his archenemy, Draco Malfoy, just to be sure it hadn’t all been a dream. . . ”
- — Chapter One: The Worst Birthday
Half-Blood Prince[]
- Harry – “Wow... look at that... he's not here now! So why not have a go? They might be able to find you a double cell in Azkaban with your loser of a husband!”
- Draco – “Don't you dare talk to my mother like that, Potter”
- — Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
- “Harry stared at Malfoy. It was not the sucking-up that intrigued him; he had watched Malfoy do that to Snape for a long time. It was the fact that Malfoy did, after all, look a little ill. This was the first time he had seen Malfoy close up for ages; he now saw that Malfoy had dark shadows under his eyes and a distinctly grayish tinge to his skin.”
- — Chapter Fifteen: The Unbreakable Vow
- “He despised Malfoy still for his infatuation with the Dark Arts, but now the tiniest drop of pity mingled with his dislike. Where, Harry wondered, was Malfoy now, and what was Voldemort making him do under threat of killing him and his parents?”
- — Chapter Thirty: The White Tomb
Fanon[]
Drarry is an extremely popular ship in the Harry Potter fandom and the most popular slash ship in the fandom. Many shippers enjoy the enemies to lovers trope of the ship, and they also enjoy the contrast between the dark, brooding Draco Malfoy (A Death Eater) and the lighter, heroic Harry Potter (The Chosen One). It also effectively gave Draco a much-needed redemption arc. Because of their past history and characterization, many fans depict the duo as soulmates. However, much controversy sparks within the fandom regarding this ship and debating whether their connection is too toxic and or problematic for them to become a romantic couple.
On AO3, Drarry is the most written ship for both Harry and Draco as well as the most written ship in the Harry Potter - J.K. Rowling tag and the fifth in the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Thorne & Rowling tag. There are currently 76000 written works.
