One thing people don’t understand about Slytherins is that we NEED something to channel our ambition toward, something to make us feel like we’re achieving something. Dead-end jobs are poison to us. If we feel like we’re trapped in a shitty situation and are powerless within it, we’re liable to descend into depression. Add an abusive boss to the mix, and we just might start sobbing in a school bathroom.

Ok so I was sorted into Gryffindor two years ago. I recently retook the Pottermore quiz because I felt I had changed a lot in that time. I got Slytherin and felt quite confident with it, but since I was in Gryffindor before I can’t help feeling a little unsure as to wether I am actually Slytherin, which isn’t helped by people saying I’m too nice to be a Slytherin… I honestly don’t see how you can be too nice to be a Slytherin, but what are your thoughts? Do I fit here?

Controversial opinion here but I actually think you can be too nice to be in slytherin

Probably not in the way people are telling you though. A lot of people have this idea that you have to be #edgy to be in slytherin which honestly ??? no ??? There are soft, pastel slytherins who’d do anything for their friends and they’re no less valid than the slytherins in red lipstick and high heels ready to kill any man that gets in their way

However

You do have to be fairly ruthless to be in slytherin. You have to be prepared to make the hard decisions and put yourself ahead of other people sometimes. You have to know that there are some things you’re going to have to sacrifice in order to achieve your dreams. You have to prioritise the people you love over people you don’t know and choose the few over the many.

Does that make you an evil bitch? Of course not! But if they have to send a speeding train down a track with people tied to it, slytherins are going to choose to save their loved ones over 50 strangers. Is it nice? Probably not. But it’s slytherin

406. That one slytherin that is a walking ray of sunshine and no one can figure out why the hell they’re even in slytherin? That slytherin sinks into a fit of rage one day and looses their absolute shit at someone in public and suddenly nobody is curious anymore because goddamn
