The Slytherin Nest
(#) Alorkin 2007-12-19
Too many people believe Harry should always be a Gryffindor. I disagree. He has the characteristics of all the houses, and would do well in any of them. His Slytheirn nature is seen clearly in several places in canon, as is his Hufflepuff side. His Ravenclaw aspect is a bit understated, but that is to be understood, given the nature of his rearage and his friends. Hermione is, in canon, far to pushy and Ron, is lazy. Since Harry wants to remain Ron's friend, he adopts Ron's poor study habits. Not exactly a great way to go through school.
The difficulties he is to face in Slytherin may in fact make him 'the greatest of them all', however, one wonders if the sorting hat said something similar to a boy named Tom Riddle. In any case, I wonder if Slytherin is ready for Harry.

This is an interesting premise. I wonder how Hermione, Neville, and Luna will grow up, without Harry to support and protect them?Author's response
I wonder indeed ;)The Slytherin Nest

A premise that has been done but is always enjoyable. The question is always Snape--will he look after snakeling Harry or still resent James Potter son. Will Snape who was abused notice Harry's less than perfect childhood? These will be a big question and help Harry in his house or not. Look forward to more.Author's response
Oooh these questions must be addressed :DThe Slytherin Nest
