Meme: Sorting Hat

[imafuturist]

So, it's rainy and gross and I wanted to meme. And it's been since 2019 since we did this last. Simpler times, 2019.

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:
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.

Ping in and people will comment on your characters with what house they think works for them. Come and go throughout the day to see what happens and if people have other ideas! Just have fuuuuuun. Always have the fun, folks. We need it.

Body of post shamelessly yoinked from the lovely betterthanaplan who words better than I can ever hope to.

Comments

Rey / Kitty / Sabine / Alexis / Maeve / Jaye / Janet / Jaina / Sia

[thatwaslucky]

For real I love throwing Jaye in this meme especially.

Rey

[imafuturist]

I'm torn between Hufflepuff and Slytherin for her core personality. But she's not particularly cunning or ambitious despite all that resourcefulness, so... Hufflepuff.

Rey

[knife_bender]

I'm gonna go with Gryffindor here.

Jaye

[heroic_jawline]

Jaye is a Ravenclaw who always does her work at the last minute and drives the rest of the House insane.

Kitty

[defenderofdesmoines]

Ravenclaw, but like the inverse of Hermione, where Gryffindors would be like, "Why are you with all the nerds when you kick so much ass?"

Rey

[defenderofdesmoines]

I feel like Rey is a Hufflepuff with a lot of Gryffindor in her. The Sorting Hat would probably sit there for awhile trying to decide, but ultimately I'm gonna put her in Hufflepuff.

Jaye

[sparkinyou]

Thinking hard on this one. Jaye is a Ravenclaw. She went to Brown, she's smart as hell but would rather work in a gift shop than use it.

Her talking animals are totally Slytherin though.

Tony Stark | Magnus Burnsides | Jaskier | Danny Williams

[imafuturist]

All in one because it showed up when I started typing.

Danny Williams

[knife_bender]

Danny's a lil' Hufflepuff

Tony/Jaskier

[thatwaslucky]

Tony is a Ravenclaw who does a lot of Gryffindor-level dumb stuff.

Jaskier is a Hufflepuff whose hard work includes getting laid and singing.

Magnus Burnsides

[sparkinyou]

"Magnus Rushes In"

Complete Gryffindor

Liam Kincaid-Price / Juillenne Milone

[legionqueen]

Getting in on the GROUND FLOOR of a meme for once before I head off to work. WOO!

Liam

[thatwaslucky]

Going Gryffindor for this boy.

Liam

[defenderofdesmoines]

Liam strikes me as a Gryffindor with Ravenclaw leanings, because he's very introspective and thoughtful for a straight-up Gryff.

Diego Hargreeves/John Silver

[knife_bender]

This is probably very easy.

John Silver

[ohvalleyofpenis]

Oooooo, his ambition and attempts at cunning makes him a Slytherin to me.

Diego Hargreaves/John Silver

[thatwaslucky]

Diego: I wanna put him in Hufflepuff. Which no one around him would understand.

Silver: If you looked up "Slytherin" in the dictionary, this boy's picture would be there.

Annie January

[defenderofdesmoines]

I have a pretty strong opinion about where she goes but I'm curious what others say!

Re: Annie January

[thatwaslucky]

Okay I don't know canon but I want to put her in Gryffindor, with a little side of Slytherin because girl has goals.

Elli | Nina Argentum | Alluka & Nanika | Ino (Iris) | Cait Sith | Rufus Shinra | Karina | Yeul

[bookbeltof_love]

Work will be the death of me at this rate.

Nina

[thatwaslucky]

She feels like a Gryffindor who wishes she was put in something she could use as a better cover.

Yasha / Beauregard / Keyleth / Éponine / Cosette/ Tahiri / Kennedy / Peebee

[notarockharpist]

I type Yasha's name and my phone immediately suggests Beauregard as the next word. Stop stalking my Tumblr, phone -- oh wait.

Yasha

[defenderofdesmoines]

Yasha gives me huge Hufflepuff vibes.

Steve / Steve / Anakin / Shuri / Tahani / Eric / and etc.

[heroic_jawline]

I have two new people since the last time! How exciting!

Steve / Steve

[knife_bender]

Both are Gryffindors to me!

Illyana Rasputin // John Constantine // Assorted Alumni of Your Choice

[gospel_of_oblivion]

aiodtw

Illyana

[thatwaslucky]

Slytherin!

Miles Morales/Barry Ween/Eleanor Shellstrop

[sparkinyou]

Miles would totally be sitting there muttering "Not Slytherin" just because Harry did it.

Miles Morales/Barry Ween/Eleanor Shellstrop

[defenderofdesmoines]

Miles: Gryffindor with Hufflepuff leanings, I think.

Barry: I am so torn, but I think he's a Ravenclaw who wouldn't necessarily have minded being sorted into Slytherin

Eleanor: A Slytherin through and through, yes.

Stark

[stykera]

I'm not even 100% sure where he falls

Re: Stark

[fates_jaye]

HOO BOY.

Like... I feel like maybe he really just wants to be a Hufflepuff but has some serious Slytherin in him but also some Gryffindor, and what I think I'm going with is that he chose Hufflepuff because then he could be closer to the kitchens where the cupcakes are.

Lucifer / Jesse / the alums (Atton, Dante, Peter, Ender, Edward etc)

[my_own_advocate]

No points for snake metaphors.

Lucifer & Jesse

[sparkinyou]

I'm going to be controversial and say that Lucifer is a Gryffindor.

Here me out: Totally goes against Daddy's wishes. And Daddy is effing GOD. Routinely risks his own safety for Chloe. Never lies to anyone.

Oh sure, he's cunning and all but if he was truly ambitious wouldn't he want to run Hell?

Jesse: Not 100% familiar with her canon but I'm thinking Gryffindor from interactions.
