No.6 Discussion Board

Wow, there's so much discussion about houses!

Personally, I feel like they can really fit anywhere. I think we forget that you can also /ask/ to be placed in a certain house (like what Harry did; I don't know if that was just an example of being brave so it automatically equated to him being in Gryffindor - someone posted the tumblr theory earlier about how the three main characters in HP had traits that would've suited the other houses, but they were placed in Gryffindor possibly simply because they were brave enough to make that request.)

but to be honest, I can actually kind of see Shion as a Slytherin too. Thaaat is if you're basing his character from the novels. Saaaay, his infamous line: "Destroy everything." Nezumi's also always accusing him of using words of kindness that are empty and self-serving. (but that's a small example, Harry's also shown Slytherin traits multiple times. Can the AU have a portion where the sorting hat is just like, "wow, you're so versatile, idk where to put you. :l" and then maybe Shion freaking sighs because he's not even thinking about the sorting, he's thinking about those grey eyes he say one night and the sorting hat's just like, "ok, we'll just put you where he is then." ) I'm personally also thrilled by the idea of Shion and Safu being childhood friends, expecting to get into the same house, then they're not and Safu's devastated. )
