I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, and agreeing with kinneasirvine. You get a Slytherpuff vote from me. If you get in and you still don't feel like that's working for you, you can apply for resorting. But let's not count our chickens too soon or however the hell that phrase goes. Good luck!

I don't want to squib you because I think your app is better than that. I didn't see enough Ravenclaw to dub you a Ravenpuff. However, I did see the Slytherpuff. I personally think it's a nice combination. Good luck with the rest of your sorting. :)

First, what's up with the italics? ._. I don't quite see what they are. Thoughts? I use italics for... emphasis... or... something. Uhm, it makes your application look messy and incoherent.

It also had lots and lots of action. I loved GoF, OoTP, and HBP because they were full of action. It's not that I didn't enjoy the first three... I just liked the last three more.

Which action did you like the best? Character action? Killing action? Spell action? Quidditch? The tournament? Be specific! It helps us sort.

WHY the part in italics? Why didn't you just put that as your answer? Is there some sort of advantage to doing it this way?

His biological family, to me, were true Slytherins... they were ambitious and cunning, and they didn't care who they may have hurt in the long run. Voldemort was just like that, despite the fact he met his Uncle Morfin while he was school. He had no idea what his family was like, and now that we know, we have yet a little more information left to ponder on.Interesting way of seeing it. You ( ... )

I think the regular font is her original application and the italics are what she added to it.

Sorry, I didn't read your whole comment.... XD

Okay, so looking back on what I said, maybe I was a little off. There was something that screamed Slytherin in the application (which I stand firm with still) and really wanted to give substantial reasons why since I was going against adamant wishes...guess I wasn't successful as I hoped. ^^;

Sorry for any confusion.

I really have trouble pinning you down. You reminded me of a gossipy schoolgirl chatting idly to her friends or something. I don't think you have a lot of introspection and I couldn't pick up a strong house combination. I sensed some Gryffindor and then maybe Slytherin for your ambition, but you're adamant about not wanting to be in a Slytherin house, and I picked up no other house vibes. So I'm just going to have to squib, unfortunately. Sorry, hon. Good luck with the rest of the voting.

Oh dear, I really hate to do this, but I'm going to have to squib you. I agree with the others- it was probably a bad idea to go back and revise your old application like you did. Because of the way you did your application, I felt like I was being swung in circles or something. It was really very hard to concentrate, because it felt like you were basically stating what you had said originally twice over, instead of elaborating. I got a bit of a Hufflepuff, I think, but I hardly felt anything else. I think I caught a whiff of Ravenclaw, but the application was just so disorganized feeling that I felt reluctant to mention the house. I do think that you deserve another chance, though... not that it's up to me or anything. I'm just saying that I think you could make it in with little to no squib votes if you'd just start clean and re-do the whole application.

But then again, votes look to be about half and half, so this vote of mine may end up being overlooked! Either way, I wish you luck with your sorting. :) Sorry to squib.
