Meme: Sorting Hat

[pursuedthestars]

I'm off today and thus, I decided a fun meme might be in order because who doesn't love a fun meme? We haven't done this one since January and it's one of my favorites so I say we do it again especially since we've got new students and teachers this go 'round.

So, stolen originally from solo_sword

For those of you not familiar with Harry Potter, there are four houses into which the students are sorted based on certain defining traits:

Gryffindor - daring, courage and chivalry
Hufflepuff - hard workers, loyalty, fairness
Ravenclaw - wit, learning, and wisdom
Slytherin - cunning, resourcefulness and ambition

A couple points for clarification because I've seen a lot of sorting stuff over the years:
All hero types are not necessarily Gryffindors.
All jerks/bad guys are not necessarily Slytherins, nor are all Slytherins necessarily jerks/bad guys.
Hufflepuff is not where you stick someone just because you can't think of anything else.
People can totally fit into more than one house.

All you have to do is ping your characters in, and people can chime in with which house they think your character belongs in. You can totally comment as to where you think your character should go, too. Feel free to give reasons when sorting people because that's half the fun, just don't be mean or I will totally come over there. And don't forget to check back during the day as more people ping in.

Who I think is pretty obvious.

Re: Gertrude Yorkes

[bitten_notshy]

I say Ravenclaw.

Alec Lightwood

[nottrivial]

Maybe less so?

Re: Alec Lightwood

[bitten_notshy]

I'd go with Hufflepuff, because he puts such a high value on loyalty.

Hufflepuff with a streak of Gryffindor!

Topher Brink

Re: Topher Brink

Slytherin!

Samantha Traynor

[playsforkepesh.livejournal.com]

Definitely an easy one.

Re: Samantha Traynor

[bitten_notshy]

I say Ravenclaw.

April Ludgate

Re: April Ludgate

[bitten_notshy]

Ugh, hard one. The hat'd give up. I think she might end up in Slytherin, but she wouldn't be a perfect fit.

Bruce Banner

Re: Bruce Banner

[throughaphase]

I think his brain would end him up in Ravenclaw.

Stiles Stilinski

[robinonadderall]

Always a hard one, I think.

Re: Stiles Stilinski

[bitten_notshy]

Y'know, I'm going for Gryffindor. He'd fit into Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff too, but at the end of the day he is one brave dude.

Isaac Lahey

[graveyardwolf.livejournal.com]

Never put thought into this one for him.

Re: Isaac Lahey

[bitten_notshy]

I say Hufflepuff because once Isaac likes you, he'll do anything for you.

Buffy Summers

[abakingmetaphor.livejournal.com]

Easy, so very easy.

Re: Buffy Summers

[bitten_notshy]

Gryffindor, yep!

Jim Kirk

[pursuedthestars]

Who could probably fit into a few of them comfortably.

Re: Jim Kirk

[abakingmetaphor.livejournal.com]

I would say totes a Gryffindor.

Paddra Nsu-Yeul

[pulseof_life]

Re: Paddra Nsu-Yeul

[bitten_notshy]

I feel like she'd fit into Ravenclaw, albeit not perfectly.

Karina Lyle

[notacokeperson.livejournal.com]

Re: Karina Lyle

[myownface]

Weirdly enough, I think I'd put Karina into the Slytherin pile, as the most righteous, well-meaning Slytherin there has ever been. She is a hero back home, yeah, but that's entirely as a means to reach an ends. Most of what she does is a means to reach the fame she wants, after all, and it would be difficult to find someone more ambitious than her on the island, or someone more willing to put all of their resources toward reaching their personal goals.

... Except probably Doom.

Victor Mancha

[ultron_junior]

Re: Victor Mancha

[pursuedthestars]

I alternate between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor for Victor but I land on the side of him being a Gryffindor because, from what I've seen, he's going to go in and help you out without a second thought. He won't make a plan and think out all outcomes if immediate action is needed.

Jack Nought

[psychoticbiotic.livejournal.com]

Is there a house for damaged and crazy?

Re: Jack Nought

[abakingmetaphor.livejournal.com]

I believe Slytherin has damaged and crazy all up in there. But damaged and crazy that does the right thing on occasion.

Alana

Re: Alana

[1stinkinpercent.livejournal.com]

I'm gonna go with Hufflepuff with some Gryffindor characteristics here just from the brief things I know about the canon. She did a lot whole helluva lot for Marko to break him out which means she's got the loyalty but what she did was pretty damn brave and not very thought out so it could put her in the Gryffindor group for me too.

Bay Kennish

[justbeingbay]

Re: Bay Kennish

[theoplustwo.livejournal.com]

From what I know about Bay, she almost seems to slot into Slytherin for me just because she's ambitious and resourceful. She's got traits of Hufflepuff with the being there for her friends but she's also not one to forget about herself and how she can get to where she wants to be.

Hufflepuff!

Ravenclaw!

Theo Langstrom

Re: Theo Langstrom

[tigerundercover]

I haven't read the canon, so I'm not 100% sure, but I'd say Gryfflepuff.

Daphne Blake

[ldymacgyver]

Re: Daphne Blake

[pursuedthestars]

She seems like a Hufflepuff with a lot of Gryffindor traits. But, she's there for her friends no matter what and she works her ass off solving mysteries with said friends.

Gryffindor all the way.

Le Hufflepuff.
