* AbusiveParents: Downplayed compared to other works regarding Lucius and Draco. While not to the extent of other fanworks that give Lucius this trope his canon self never truly had, his interactions with Draco later in the story don't mesh with how he was in the books or movies. Despite admitting to Hermione he does care for his son, he was more than willing to erase his memories upon learning of their relationship, [[spoiler: face him and later abandon him so that he could run away with Hermione and raise the son he fathered with her. Hermione herself is very torn on this and fears Lucius would play this straight to his second son]].

* PoorCommunicationKills: "Fall of Man" shows that Lucius thinks Hermione is seducing him and shares the same lust for him as he has gained for her. In chapter 26, where "Fall of Man" happened, Lucius doesn't at all tell Hermione at all why he's doing what he's doing, only that she "brought it on herself". Hermione clearly has no idea what he means, and Lucius is unwilling to admit he thinks she's seducing him. By the time he realizes, it's too late [[spoiler:and he rapes her.]] This becomes the turning point in their relationship.

* HisOwnWorstEnemy: Lucius is unable to admit to himself he has any sort of interest or attraction to Hermione without hating himself over it. [[spoiler:This entitled belief that she is his while also being possessive of her has caused him to murder her parents in an attempt to keep her alive, assault Ron in her presence, then rape her. While he's hit with guilt over his actions, especially the latter, [[NeverMyFault he refuses to believe himself at fault and goes as far as to think Hermione was manipulating him or wanted to sleep with him]]. Furthermore, even when the two enter an intimate relationship, Lucius still regards his actions as treachery and treats her almost like an addiction. Upon learning he fathered a child with her, he's horrified because he didn't stop to even consider he'd get her pregnant.]] Ironically, all of his problems could have been solved if he had just killed Hermione when he had the chance.
