Pottermore Sorting House Quiz

I know that they're not evil. I guess a better way to put it is that some people view Slytherins as antagonists.

Many evil people are Slytherins, but most Slytherins are not evil. And ambition and cunning are desirable traits that get you places in the world.

Lots of Slytherins around here. YAY!

We are just one big, happy dysfunctional family!

Heh. Brewing, duels. Quidditch if offered. None of those would hold my interest, sadly.

Ya know, that is one of the few places outside of the discussion for Methods where you see that kind of thinking. It needs to be noticed and complimented. Added to as well, slightly. Being ambitious and cunning need not mean you need to be cold and unhappy.

I'm a Slytherin, so I should be able to brew potions.

I forget that I am brewing them.

...except there is an entire TROPE dedicated to that line of thought.

There's a trope about Slythrins forgetting they have a potion brewing?

Ahahah. No, I'm talking about Ambition Is Evil

No, sorry, it isn't the same thinking as far as I am concerned. If ambition was evil, we would still be living in caves, mud huts or tree houses. Because ambition is a tool, and used correctly has improved the human condition as a whole.

...yes, that's the point of the trope. That fiction portrays ambition as evil, even though that's not the case.

My mistake then, I didn't click the link. Silly of me. I stand by what I said though about the spirit of the letter of that trope.

Hufflepuff.

It surprised me, but I've grown to like it.

Hey, House Hufflepuff is the House that does all the real work. Be proud.

I wouldn't judge people by what house they're sorted in. After all, this is pretty much a fun personality test, and even if we were wizards in Hogwarts, I would prefer to judge people on a case-by-case basis.

I can not for the life of me figure this thing out.

I'm currently "locked" out of "Harry and Hagrid visit Gringots" for... some reason.

I just want to take the test! I don't care about this other crap.

what part are you on right now? Did you actually click on Gringotts?

You need to click on the crowd in the Diagon Alley chapter to recieve your shopping list.

x2 Diagon Alley

That's... silly. And also not working.

It took me about three seconds to find it —shrug—

Have you tried double clicking? You have to click in the area around the center.

Found it.

... Hufflepuff. Fuck.

I mean, it seems accurate, but it's god damn Hufflepuff.

What's wrong with hufflepuff?

What are you talking about? Hufflepuffs are particularly good finders.

Hufflepuff's common room is by the kitchen. Endless food supply GO!

I got Slytherin myself, which...surprised me, but I quite like it now. If only for the fact I'll be the lamest Slytherin of all time.

I got sorted into Slytherin... Which didn't surprise me at all. It was either that or Ravenclaw.

I registered in Pottermore, I was curious. But as far as I can see, it is some sort of point-and-click game. Is there some way of taking the test without going through the game?
