*jingle* Thanks for tuning in to DD's zoological corner! XD
Reviving this thread because EFF YEA HARRY POTTER.
Every single test I've taken over the years has always put me in Gryffindor. :D Doesn't seem to matter if I answer the questions truthfully or fib a little, it's ALWAYS Gryffindor. The hat has spoken. v__V
The Pottermore quiz link tells me I'm Ravenclaw (86%), with Slytherin as follow-up (81%). I'm not going to take the second test since there are far more variables to the questions it asks, which I don't feel are sufficiently represented in the answers lol (though I appreciate the effort of the quiz).
The actual Pottermore quiz I took back when the site opened sorted me into Gryffindor, but that's the only house I can't see myself in as I don't identify with its values at all. Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin would all fit with who I am, whereas Ravenclaw and Slytherin fit the values that drive me.
Both despair and ecstasy are part of the elements that compose a person.
Wow, there are A LOT of Slytherins here! Considering it’s supposedly one of the rarest houses, on par with Ravenclaw, I wonder what this says about gamers/otakus/geeks in general? :p
With that said, I too am a snake ‘til I drop. Never got a different result, neither on my many different tries on Pottermore (I take the test every couple of years to check for coherence), nor on any fanmade quizzes.
I am a full-fledged Slytherin, there’s no denying that, and very proud of it (but then again, what else could you expect from a Slytherin?). I genuinely think it is by far the most interesting house of the four – not to mention, it is just so goddamn cool. I love that I’m also a Snake by Eastern zodiac standards – the serpent is such an amazing, complex symbol, and one that I relate to in so many ways.
(On a different note, my boyfriend, too, is a 100% Slytherin, and he shares most of my hobbies and tastes. Maybe the theory I opened this post with is not completely off!)
