Don't know if anyone is interested in this sort of thing, and YES this is self-promotion, but I have been writing fanfiction for a little over a year and I have three separate Draco x OC universes (everything is clean). I'm currently in the throes of editing my completed one, Despite All Odds, which is dual-POV, Slytherin OC, heavy as can be on sarcasm, denial, and deromanticizing Draco for both humorous purposes and also because I am a book purist and want to write and read Draco as canonically accurate as possible.

As a Christian who writes reams of fanfiction (to date over 520k words since November 2024), I incorporate my beliefs subliminally when I write. Currently, I've been working on an extremely long Draco x OC story where he is disillusioned and almost depressed after the war, is given a month of probation by the Ministry, and elopes with a former Hufflepuff after a whirlwind romance. They live in NYC for a little over a year and are introduced to the church after the birth of their son, who arrives early and spends several weeks in the NICU. My plan is that Draco and his wife will eventually convert and become baptized Christians (I am an Anglican, not to be confused with the CoE or Episcopal Church). I know Rowling has said things about Draco not having a redemption, but obviously this is a far different subject; I am curious if any others have similar takes on it. I do believe that if in any way he HAD come to Christ at some point it would have been immensely earth-shaking for him after everything he grew up with, realizing that there was a God who still loved him and wanted him after all that.
