I'm not saying Slytherins are the best, but I am saying they have the best aspects of the other three...

Gryffindors are go-getters. They jump into things, sometimes recklessly, sometimes hotheaded, because they believe in it, by any means necessary- Slytherin ambition often leads to the same, ambition to achieve their goals, by any means.

Hufflepuffs are loyal and genuine, they care- Slytherin loyalty is more... narrow, but just as firm. Their people, their loyalty. In addition, Slytherin is defined by traditionalism. Loyalty to well worn and time tested thoughts and ideas.

And Ravenclaw: the researchers, the wise, the knowledgeable - While Ravenclaw can be considered "knowledge for the sake of it", Slytherin sticks with the well-known adage "Knowlege is power."

It pays to be informed. It is imperative to act decisively. And you do it all for your family, blood or otherwise.

#for those if you who know the westminster confessions #prophet priest king #Ravenclaw hufflepuff gryffindor #but slytherin doesn't fit cleanly #because it's a balance of the other three #It's not a coincidence that our hero could have been a slytherin #well balanced #now he chose to be HERO first and formost #also #the best things are the things most ripe for corruption #while being the house I think most suited to do good #is also most suited to do evil #Harry potter #hogwarts houses #hogwarts #slytherin #gryffindor #Ravenclaw #hufflepuff
