Me: I’m gonna try to write something a little more serious.
Also me: *writes this exchange*
"Who is this Lockhart person anyway?"
"Our new Defense teacher. He's about as helpful as tree bark." A pause. "At least you can eat tree bark."
"Not that it tastes very good," Riddle said.
"Speaking from experience?"
"No."
"Liar liar, page on fire."
"Do not set my memories on fire, Harry."
Yes, this is YET ANOTHER thing I’m working on. I’m actually hoping to post this one in the near-ish future (as I’ve said for literally everything else I’ve written).

Wish me luck. Today is the day I embark on an incredible, life-changing journey to face my demons (job interview)

Urgh, I hadn’t written in months! Anyway, hi, hello, I am still here on planet Earth and have not relocated to Jupiter or any other celestial body. How are we all doing this fine day?

Scrolling on Reddit and I came across an interesting perspective I hadn’t considered before. “Harry should have been in Slytherin! The hat said so!” is a take many people agree with, but a few people pointed out this:
Harry was the first to bring up Slytherin — “Not Slytherin” — and then, and only then, did the hat go (paraphrased), “Are you sure? You’d do well in Slytherin.”
Also, the hat brought up courage and a thirst for knowledge before Harry had even spoken. If we looked at the most baseline traits of the four houses, it sounds like Gryffindor and Ravenclaw were the ones the hat was considering more.
(Also also, and this is veering into more personal opinion, canon!Harry should not have been Slytherin because the story would have vastly changed. But that’s what fanfiction is for!)

@onyxjay You shouldn't forget that Harry was reckless and that mixed up with courage brought him trouble even though he did it for a good cause. But that's what differentiated him from Slytherin. He had the right mix of slyness and honesty that attracted the right sort but also fend off the wrong sort . If you ask me, he is somewhere between being a Gryfindor and Slytherin, neither of these houses can call him theirs completely.

@fourth_wall_breaker you mean when he was with the Dursleys? I think that’s fanon. Harry told Hagrid he gets good marks
