[aruan]

me: Tumblr is debating what Hogwarts house Sherlock and Mycroft would be sorted into
Ravenclaw and Slytherin, respectively?
B: Mycroft is total Hufflepuff. sorry
"You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true,
And unafraid of toil"he is loyal to Sherlock above all costs and is loyal to running

It has taken me YEARS to stop automatically thinking of Hufflepuff as a House full of Ralph Wiggams - clearly not what JK had intended.

Oh, pity to our two Other houses. :(

I think pity is the proper emotion for the occupants of any room with Jim Moriarty in them, since the troublemakers will never be as clever and the rest will never be safe. Salazar would be proud of him indeed.

But hey, Gryffindor totally gets John Watson! He's kind of the embodiment of the Sorting Hat's song:

You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart

BAMFiest Gryffindor of them all!

(For once, I take your place in the Viewing Rear Guard, as I'm waiting to watch the new eps when they air on PBS here. So, yeah, I kinda know what happens because of tumblr and their love gifs, but yeah, <333.)

I can't believe you're holding out for Reichenbach. Unless of course you're a sane person who doesn't enjoy having their heart torn out.

Bless Tumblr and their GIFs. I pretty much spend every spare moment staring lovingly at Tumblr.

Those animal .gifs will haunt my sleep forever.

LOL at anyone thinking that Mycroft is a Slytherin. Really now.

I hope my comment on your previous post didn't offend you or anything, since you haven't replied. :((((((

[aruan]

For reals. I can just see the Sorting Hat being all, "Oh, you want to conquer the world to make it safe for your little brother? Why are the professors wasting both our time here?"

No, not at all! Your comment just made me think many, MANY ~thoughts and I'm trying to compress all the many resulting feels into a comment-size box.

[kirstenlouise]

PRECISELY. I'd be more likely to buy the idea of Sherlock being in Slytherin, in much the same way that I find it plausible that Hermione, although brilliant, was sorted into Gryffindor.

Okay, haha. Sorry to be all insecure on your page. I was just like OH GOD NO DID I REVEAL THE REALLY, REALLY WEIRD PARTS OF MY HEADCANON? WAS IT TOO EARLY IN THE RELATIONSHIP FOR THAT????

:-p
