First discussion post! I already did something similar to this in the_ass_ship, but since this community covers all the kids, time for another poll
( Read more... )
I can't talk. I put Teddy in Hufflepuff because his name makes me think of teddy bears, which make me think of Hufflepuffs. I have a couple puffs on my flist who would kill me for that statement, but I can't help it! XD
Well, almost every single one of these kids were born of Gryffindors (Victoire and Teddy would be counted as half and half, I suppose, since Fleur didn't go to Hogwarts and we don't know what House Tonks was in and then Scorpius, who was born of Slytherins), so it would be a shame to put all of them in Gryffindor all over again.
snowfire and I have discussed Teddy and Victoire's Houses somewhat extensively.
When she proposed the question to me, the following was my response. She added her own opinions (which I'm sure she'll offer up if you'd like), but this will work as a basic explanation.
I don't know. I guess -- even though Houses aren't really a genetic thing, there's the influence of the environment to be said for it (or, whatever, because Harry's parents were both Gryffindors and his dad's best friends were all Gryffindors and despite Lily being best friends with a Slytherin forever, Harry was a Gryffindor, so we'll just say parents/adults can be taken into account). Remus was a Gryffindor; Tonks was a Hufflepuff ( this will continue to kill me because I will always reverse her and Luna somehow). I don't know about Andromeda, but Teddy's probably got all of the Weasley families plus the Potters for influence and that's TONS of Gryffindors. I don't know -- I'm TORN because I want him to be in Gryffindor like his daddy, but I'm more inclined toward

I went for Ravenclaw for Victoire because, as I said to raynala, I have this picture in my head of her being gorgeous and aloof, like her mother, but caring to her friends and family and loving adventure, like her father. I personally see her as a pretty girl who can't help that boys are automatically attracted to her veela blood and who constantly has to prove that she's more than just a pretty face. And I see Teddy as being one of the few who likes her for her mind, not just her body. But that's entirely in my opinion, since you can't get all that out of the epilogue.
I think what sealed Gryffindor for Victoire for me was that Fleur helped rescue Harry. Don't get me wrong, she could do that as someone who might have been in Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, but she helped rescue him out of loyalty. He saved her sister; in her eyes, that demands riskin her life for his. Gryffindor bravado all the way.
Geez, I'm not very imaginative. I went with the majority on almost every answer. Some of them, I can't imagine any other way, though. Like Lily HAS to be a Gryffindor. Somehow, that's the only thing that makes sense to me. I imagine her as a lot of Ginny and Lily the first with a splash of Harry of course. So naturally she's gonna be fearless.
I have a strong urge to write a Lily fic now... :)
Glad to see I'm in the majority with Albus! I think JKR meant him for Slytherin, what with the initials and the joking about being in Slytherin. Boy is doomed.

Dammit. I already thought there were too many Gryffindors, and here I am creating more.

Slytherin (seriously?)
Yup, seriously. And I explained my reasoning in the drabble I just posted. *g*
