"Not all Ravenclaws perform well academically. There's much more to Ravenclaw than getting good grades. Most of what you learn doesn't come from classes, but from experiences and reading outside of class. It's more about being curious, wise, and creative. Sometimes the hat sees potential in you that you might not see in yourself. You'll do great in Ravenclaw, even if you don't get good grades." Hadley might be more of the creative type or maybe the kind of person who would seek out knowledge in non school related areas. "You can call me Penny if you want to. Can I call you Haddie?" She liked this girl so far.

Haddie pondered Penny's words. For the first time, she had a small inkling about what the Hat saw in her and why it had put her in Ravenclaw. She still felt she was more Gryffindor, but maybe she really wasn't. Maybe she was more Ravenclaw at her core.

Isn't that what the Hat had said? Something about the traits that made her suited to the other houses all stemming from her ideas and imagination? Or something like that. Okay so maybe she'd have to begrudgingly accept the Hat might have known what it was doing. But it still didn't have to be such a rude jerk about it!

Haddie realized she was sort of beaming in reaction to Penny's explanation. "Good. And I prefer Haddie actually." She smiled again.
