Recipient: marginaliana Prompt: The Sorting Hat is evil. Word count: 100 Rating: G; Harry Potter/Dracula/Bible/Norse Mythology/Highlander crossover. =)
Immortality has one major drawback: boredom.
Vampires take an interest in real estate to pass time; gods have the ultimate battle between good and evil to anticipate; even immortal Scotsmen use the centuries to cultivate devastating swordsmanship.
An immortal hat, on the other hand, can't call a real estate agent, battle a devil, or even lift a sword. In fact, the Sorting Hat can only read minds and compose irritating songs.
But immortals must do something to pass the time.
If that something is manipulating generations of wizards in one long game for one's own amusement, well. So be it.
