Ella The Sorting Hat III

Dex Dizznee is a Hufflepuff. Fight me. (But also I did an in depth post on this a while back so look at that one if you want the logic)

Ella The Sorting Hat VII

Just found this in my drafts. Hasnt been edited since I wrote it what was probably years ago. Enjoy. So, I’ve been holding off on doing Keefe because, personally, it’s really hard for me to sort him, and I’ve been going around and around and around in circles trying to figure out which house he’d be sorted into. I mean, he could literally fit in any of them. And I mean any house. Let’s start with Hufflepuff, because I think it’s the easiest to rule out. Hufflepuffs value hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play. Keefe is lazy, inconsistent, and he cheats like no other because, as we learn throughout the books, Keefe likes to win. Yes, he is very loyal to his friends, and he definitely values that loyalty. We see it tearing him apart in Neverseen, when he’s coming to terms with the fact that his mother used him to spy on his friends all those years. But valuing loyalty isn’t enough to make him a Hufflepuff. So sadly, my house is out. Next let’s look at Slytherin. Keefe is incredibly clever. All his pranks, his witty dialogue, snappy comebacks, and light humor prove this. However, Lord Cassius is a textbook Slytherin. He’s clever, ambitious, ruthless, and resourceful. He knows how to spin any situation to his advantage. And bottom line, Keefe doesn’t want to be anything like his father. Remember in the books how Harry’s strong aversion to Draco Malfoy was the main reason the Sorting Hat didn’t place him in that house? After all, Slytherin was the first name it suggested. Keefe’s aversion to being like his father in any way would probably be enough to completely rule out this house as a possibility. Some say Keefe is a Gryffindor. And yes, he does have Gryffindor traits. He’s brave in the face of danger and adversity, he’s incredibly loyal to his friends through thick and thin, he’s got nerve to spare, and he’s very chivalrous, offering Sophie his cloak and making sure to always keep her safe. And like Fred and George Weasley, he’s a bit of a class clown. Or class troublemaker. But unlike Fred and George, Keefe has a passion for knowledge. Why do you think he gets so invested in helping Sophie? Because he wants to know what’s going on. He also thinks she’s cute, and she’s his friend, but if he wasn’t genuinely interested, he wouldn’t spend so much time trying to decipher those clues from the Black Swan. And he spends plenty of time writing clues of his own (which ACTUALLY rhyme. I'm looking at you Forklenator). Which brings us to the last possible house and our conclusion: Keefe Sencen is a Ravenclaw. I don’t come to this conclusion simply be process of elimination. Yes, he doesn’t fit in any of the other houses, but unexpectedly, I think Keefe would fit in with the Ravenclaws. He’s effortlessly smart. So smart he doesn’t have to study to do well. But he still does care about doing well. He might not show it, or flaunt the fact that he’s smart, but he does well enough to stay in the school. Which means above a 75% on midterms (I think) and above an 80% on finals (I think). Keefe is incredibly clever. And in order to get into the Ravenclaw common room you have to answer a riddle. Doesn’t that sound like Keefe? Protecting his secrets not only with changing passwords but changing riddles? And along with this cleverness is a sharp tongue and a wit that tends to get him into some trouble. He’s intuitive. Empathy is a power for intuitive people, people who are constantly observing the world around them and figuring out what the signs mean in the people and world around them. Keefe always knows what Sophie and the rest of their friends are feeling, not just because hes an empath but because he's a good friend who pays attention. Not to mention, Ravenclaws will go to great lengths to support their friends. Remember when Luna Lovegood bewitched a hat into a life-size lion’s head to support Ron? Or when Cho supported Melanie even after she betrayed Dumbledore’s Army? Well, Keefe crossed an ocean, did a ton of research, and is constantly supporting Sof even when she doesn't know. He pulls elaborately planned pranks. But they’re well thought out, and even though he gets his share of detentions, he’s careful to never leave behind any incriminating evidence. After all, has Dame Alina ever found evidence he was the mastermind behind the Great Gulon Incident? I think not.

Keefe: *with the Neverseen* How are you so satisfied all the time, Roy? I mean, don't you ever want anything more out of life than cereal?

Roy: *thinks*

Roy: Sometimes, I like to pour hot cocoa mix into cold milk, and drink it like a cold hot chocolate. I call it Special Drink.

Keefe: And someday, you will know it by its true name: diabetes.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Grady: *doing a crossword puzzle* What do you call breaking the rules?

Sophie: A hobby.

Grady: ...

Sophie: ...

Grady: ...

Sophie: That I do not engage in.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Alvar: My hair's all messed up.

Fitz: It's your morals that are all messed up.

Alvar: Oh, that's just part of my charm.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Sophie: There’s a small chance Tam might be in love with you.

Biana: What makes you say that?

Sophie: Because I asked him and he said yes.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Alden: Sophie, I appreciate you trying to teach Biana English, but can you stop doing it in vine references?

Sophie: I don’t have the slightest idea what you’re talking about.

Biana: *from the other side of the room* STOP! I could’ve dropped my croissant!

[ellatheblueelephant]

Tam: how do I tell my psychiatrist that Linh incorrectly using the word "yeet" is the only thing that makes me laugh any more?

Linh: *popping her head into the room* Tam, would you like to yeet a movie with me?

Tam: *on the floor crying from laughter* It's not even close!

When Sophie finds out about Mr. Forkle's Identity

Sophie: Alden deceived me. Grady and Edaline deceived me. Now my teacher?

Dex: All right then. Get me a bit of verminion drool and I'll make all his teeth fall out.

*is anyone else ready for "Flashback" to come out on the 7th!?!

[ellatheblueelephant]

Keefe: *does something ridiculous and stupid*

Tam: Great, like I needed to get any more attracted to you.

Keefe: ...

Keefe: What ?

Tam: ANNOYED. ANNOYED BY YOU. THAT'S WHAT I SAID.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Fitz: *grabs Sophie's hand*

Fitz: Why are your palms always sweaty?

Sophie: Cause you're hot.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Hey All

This isn't a spoiler. I do want to say I saw the Flashback ending from a mile away, but that just reaffirms my decision: I think I'm going to be taking a break from the fandom for at least a little while. It used to be every time a new book came out I'd stay up all night reading it and get so excited and inspired, but now I just feel...disappointed. Anyway, to all my followers and friends, thanks for the support. I love talking with you guys and being a part of this community, but I just don't feel connected with the material anymore and I've got a lot of other prospects on the horizon like my own original content I'm working on. I'll keep this blog up and you can message me if you'd like to talk about whatever, I'm always up for intense debates about absolutely anything, but after my queue runs out I won't be posting on this blog anymore. Love you all and have a good night!

[ellatheblueelephant]

Sophie: I can pull pranks too!

Keefe: Oh really? I’d love to hear about the best prank you’ve ever pulled.

Sophie: I’ve pulled some great pranks. Like when I filled Grady's hat with raisins. Let me tell you, he was not expecting that.

[ellatheblueelephant]

Sophie: I love you.

Keefe: I don't blame you.

[ellatheblueelephant]

I don't know why it took me this long to get to this realization, but Sophie is an unreliable narrator

[ellatheblueelephant]

Tam: *to the group* I know nobody asked for my advice -

Keefe: Yet you're talking.

Tam: -but I agree with Keefe.

Keefe: Let's hear him out.
