Hayden thought that was a good answer, but still not exactly the answer she was looking for. "Do you think being in Gryffindor shaped who you are? Or do you think that your traits fit Gryffindor even before you got sorted?" Or both? Hayden didn't really know how to phrase her questions, she was just really curious. She wanted to know if people were shaped by their houses or if they really did possess the qualities from the start. What did the sorting hat know?
As to the question about fitting into her own house. "Yeah I guess. I'm only a first year so I can't give you an in-depth analysis. People are nice to me, for the most part. And I don't think I'd fit well into most of the other houses." Ravenclaw maybe, but she didn't think she'd make a bad Hufflepuff in the end. She didn't say anything else because she didn't want to tell Lex about how she didn't think she'd fit into Gryffindor, it didn't seem very polite.
"Yup, she decided she couldn't not after growing um.....Spyro I think she called him...? She loves Unicorns too so I heard she was doing a smaller course in Magizoology, just so she can be certified with them too." She'd always known her cousin was a nutter when it came to animals but it became so much more apparent after she adopted the little thing and was willing to get suspended for it. Though in all honesty, Lex would have gotten suspended for a baby dragon. Hell, she'd gotten suspended for less.
Hearing Hayden's question, she dropped the marker and sat straighter. It was something she'd wondered back when she was a Firstie too and even in her Second Year she still had a few questions about those blurred lines but she figured she had an answer by now.
"I think.......I always had traits for the house is what it is. Like I wanted to be a Ravenclaw and I supposed I could have been shaped a Ravenclaw in some sense of the word if the hat put me there but I was already too much of a Gryffindor." Did she get it?
"Thinking back at how I was even before I was sorted, I think I'd call the hat a nutter if it had put me somewhere else." So yeah, she did think the traits were already there.
"I do think being sorted has made me more of a Gryffindor though. Being around like minded people, you kinda start rubbing off on them and them on you."
So it didn't sound like Hayden was a doubtful Puffer like a certain bestfriend she could mention but she didn't sound all
that convinced either.
"You've been here long enough. If after watching the houses and seeing how they work you don't think you'd fit anywhere else then chances are you probably wouldn't. The hat knows what it's doing." Unless she wasn't worried about the decision at all and was just curios. Curiousity wasn't a limited trait to begin with. Anyone with an active mind could possess it.
