About the creation of the comic and Holly Malfoy

This story has a very long history. It goes back to 2003 when Holly Malfoy (Black) was created. She was originally my best friend Tayua's original character to Harry Potter world. Since then Holly has evolved significantly and both me and Tayua have developed her. We made a story that took place in Harry Potter world, through playing, roleplaying, larping, letter-writing and fanfiction writing. Since the story is about the lives of Holly and Draco from their birth to after their death, it's quite long ;)

This comic takes place in their later life and it's a peek to their daily life :) I've written the plot and drawn the comic but Tayua's influence to this comic is significant since she has been writing the background story as much as me. So for example the names of the Chihuahuas are all thanks to Tayua(z) ;D

The background story

It's in no way necessary to read this but if you're interested, please read! It's a very short summary of some facts of Holly's and Draco's lives. The story is compliant with the HP books to the fifth one.

Holly and Draco have known each other their whole lives. For certain reasons Holly lived her childhood in Malfoy Manor and Holly and Draco were best friends at the time. In 1989 (Holly was 9) she and her mother moved to Spain. Due to lying and other complex issues Holly and Draco started hating each other, or so they said, in 1993 when Holly moved back to England and attended Hogwarts.

However, during their studies in Hogwarts they very slowly developed an intimate relationship but at the time it was nothing too serious and they were both meeting other people also. In school Holly was first sweet and nice daddy's girl until her dad died and she stopped acting. Maybe it was a bit of trauma too… Draco's father also died that year. After that Holly was definitely The Bitch of the school and Draco was a school bully. What's a better couple? Harry Potter got rid of Voldemort silently somewhere during their sixth or seventh year.

Right after school Draco founded DDG, he had been planning it silently during his last year in Hogwarts. Holly studied law in America like crazy with a time-turner because she didn't want to spend so many years studying it. Their ways separated after graduating until they met again after a year. It took some big drama (Draco almost married Pansy Parkinson) to finally get them married (in 2000). They moved to France and divorced and remarried three times. Now that they are older and wiser they have calmed down a bit and have become less irrational.

Holly graduated from law school in 2001. After doing individual advocate work for a couple of years she came to work in DDG. After some years of working there, Draco gave her the position of the head lawyer.

DDG has been growing fast and steady. Draco had very good starting money with his inheritance and it helped a lot. Even though DDG has rather big sales the most of Draco and Holly's fortune has come from successful investments. Of course they both also got rather juicy inheritances, especially Draco… One of the biggest secrets of DDG is the charms they have in their products (especially in the shoes with which everything started). The charms make the clothes much more durable and fitting than they would normally be. DDG is also selling for muggles and it's illegal to put magic in products sold to muggles. Sometimes they are protecting this secret in a bit questionable ways…

This story has born mostly from roleplaying and sometimes it shows. As for me, I would never want to actually meet Holly and Draco, they're the kind of people I wouldn't like at all. But that makes them even more interesting to write and draw ;D
