Mixing hyperfixations for a moment here but I just saw a Torchwood edit where they got all the Hogwarts houses wrong (they had; I-Ravenclaw, O-Slytherin, G-Slytherin, J-Gryffindor, T-Hufflepuff)
Because how are you gonna look me in the eyes and tell me that Ianto “flirted with Jack to get a job as a glorified butler to hide his cyberman-girlfriend in the basement for MONTHS with no one finding out” Jones is anything BUT a Slytherin
And Owen “spent months hunting down Jack after his girlfriend was killed by aliens” and “the rift took my lover and my captain and I’ll do anything to get them back” Harper is just an emo Hufflepuff
Tosh is a stereotypical Ravenclaw because she values knowledge for knowledges sake even to her own detriment (cough cough alien telepathy necklace)
Jack is loyal but only to the Doctor (who doesn’t deserve him but that’s a whole nother essay) he’s too honourable and has no self preservation and although he has all this future knowledge he never really does anything with it so the only house he really fits into would be Gryffindor
Gwen is a mixed bag because she’s not really loyal to anyone but herself which is pretty Slytherin and all her actions are pretty self centered when compared to someone like Jack who acts on what’s best for humanity and never what’s best for himself but you could argue that for the whole team. She’s curious but not for knowledge and she’s brave but it’s more impulsive than a natural trait so I guess Gryffindor but idk?
#Torchwood#hogwarts houses#Gwen and Jack are hard for me cause I’m not that keen on how they’re written#super interesting characters but also I struggle to personally relate to either of them so aren’t as keen about them#plus I despise cheating with a passion and that’s like 80% of why I hate Gwen#and why the way they wrote Jack into the bisexual cheating stereotype pisses me off#anyways not the point the point is seeing Ianto as anything but Slytherin made me write this in a blind rage#my boi is a sneaky snek and like sure he’s also smart and likes knowing things but that’s the autism!!#anyways hufflepuff Owen is real and no one can prove me wrong#he’s just a lil emo guy who’s a secret romantic who’s girlfriends keep dying
