Ooooh Glendower liked the story too? Did she have other stories like that they could learn about instead of all the boring stuff some time? How cool would that be!

Anyways people had a ton of opinions about this stuff, didn't they?

Ruby listened to her classmates and then stuck her own hand up. "I think people take house stuff too seriously. People have been sorting themselves and each other into groups since the beginning of time. Its natural and normal and I think the only problem comes when people try and fit too neatly into whatever little box they only mostly belong in. It sounds like some people here feel limited by their house. I don't." She tossed her hair slightly.

"They say that people get sorted into houses as much for the traits they do have as for the traits that they value. I don't think just because Slytherin isn't associated with certain traits that it at all means that I can't be those things if I want to be, and I don't measure myself by what traits I'm supposedly supposed to have and value as a Slytherin. If people want to underestimate me and pidgeon-hole me and think that I can't be something else just because of my house, that's their problem, and they can go ahead and do that while I get what I want, and look fabulous in green while doing it."

.... yeah so said the obvious Slytherin, basically.
