The aim of the following artikulo is to ipakita the similarities between Draco/Hermione and Lucius/Lily and what Lucius/Lily have that Draco/Hermione don't. It's aim is also to encourage Draco/Hermione fanfiction writers to explore this hypothetical relationship.

1)    Blood status

Pureblood wizard and a muggleborn witch. It doesn't need further explanation.

2)    Social status

One is rich and the other is, well, not that rich. The differences in social status between Draco and Hermione have often been explored in fanfiction (mostly AU). Lucius/Lily offers the same possibility.

3)    Houses

Of course, a Slytherin boy and a Gryffindor girl.

4)    Bad boy and a know-it-all

Another striking similarity between Draco/Hermione and Lucius/Lily. Draco is the story's bad boy, but he's not nearly as bad his daddy who was among Voldemort's most trusted servants. Lily is Hermione of the Marauders Era in terms of academic success.

5)    Eventual spouses

Draco married a pureblood (probably) witch from Slytherin (probably) called Astoria Greengrass (notice the colour 'green' in the name). Lucius married a pureblood witch from Slytherin called Narcissa Black (again the colour in the name). Hermione married a pureblood wizard from Gryffindor whom she was always bickering with. Lily married a pureblood wizard from Gryffindor whom she was always bickering with as well.

6)    Writing freedom

The bonus that comes with this couple is that called Pagsulat freedom. Even the most radical canon mga manliligaw would be able to write a Lucius/Lily fic and state that it's canon-compliant.We know very little about Lucius and Lily (yet enough to notice the similarities between them and Draco/Hermione). One of the problems Dramione writers are always facing is how to get past all the insults and stay in character. There's no such problem with Lucius/Lily. For all we know, he could've been very nice to her.

7)    Slug club

Yes, both of them were members of this elite club for the most notable Hogwarts students.

8)    Snape

One whole paragraph goes to Snape. He's one of the most complex characters in Potterverse. What stands out is that both Lucius and Lily were his mga kaibigan and he cared a lot about thm. A character like this is what Dramione don't have. He can be a bridge between them. Also, the fact that Lucius' best friend was a halfblood can be used to ipakita that he's madami open-minded than he says.

All in all, this ship has almost everything that Draco/Hermione has: pureblood/muggleborn, rich/not so rich, Slytherin/Gryffindor, bad boy/know-it-all good girl. It also has some things Dramione don't: insults over the years, Slug club membership and Snape. In addition, it offers madami Pagsulat freedom.
