Found this on Fanfic Flamingo today:



And now it occurs to me ... *does* the PR fandom have a Hogwarts AU? o.O I know we've got Harry Potter crossovers, but ... I don't recall seeing one anywhere. Of if we do, it wasn't worth noting.

Anyone have one to share? Or suggestions for/desire to make one?

I would agree that MOST Rangers would end up in either Gryffindor or Hufflepuff, with a scattering of Ravenclaws. But taking Slytherin on the actual traits of ambition and cunning, you could easily throw in a lot of Rangers - Gia's defining trait if I remember the first episode correctly, was ambition.

I mean, Billy is way a hardcore Ravenclaw, no doubt about it. And whenever I do these mental House-sorting games, I *always* use the real traits, as spelled out by the first Sorting song. None of this "Hufflepuffs are useless" or "Slytherins are evil" crap.

But based on Gia as a character? I'm not sure she is actually as ambitious as we were told she was supposed to be. This is always the problem with being told a character is supposed to fit some trait, instead of being *shown*. We were never told Eric was ambitious, we were just shown the fact that he dropped out of high school in order to pursue his goals, that he went out of his way to get what he wanted for himself in life, etc. I'm not sure *which* house Gia would fit best in, but I'm not sure it's Slytherin.

HP and related things are something I really can't argue about due to past fandom things, so I'm going to bow out of this.

Aw. Okay. (I somehow managed to avoid the crazier ends of HP fandom and only hung out in one little sandbox where people were nice and we pretty much only ever talked about one fic series, so...)
