It's nice to find someone else who agrees that Draco's redemption arc was a dropped ball! And I agree with you too; those scenes where he does something right don't qualify as redemption imo, but rather instances from where his redemption could have begun, much like Dudley's run in with the dementors. (And don't even get me started on the Houses; that epilogue will forever make me all squinty-eyed at the continued practice of prejudice, tbh.)
Thanks for stopping by with your thoughts, I always find other people's interpretations so interesting to read about! Oh, and I'm gonna follow you back, hope that's okay! ♥
