Yesss! Hufflepuff rules!

Sorry, but it's my house and we badgers get no respect! I always thought John was an ace Hufflepuff. Hard-working, loyal, compassionate, willing to get his hands dirty, unasuming, modest. And if anyone ever says Hufflepuffs aren't brave, I just point them to the OTHER Hogwarts student who successfully reached the end of the Tri-Wizard Tournament. The one the goblet ACTUALLY chose.

Why yes, I am a little bitter. Why do you ask?

YES! BADGER PRIDE!

We bitter Badgers have to stick together :D I've always thought he'd be a Hufflepuff, and while Gryffindor also suits him, I absolutely love him in yellow.

Thanks for reading!! <3

This is interesting--and good choice with John's House! Frankly, I'd always thought Gryffindor didn't suit John very much.

Oh, good, I was really worried I'd have to try really hard to justify it! Thanks a lot~

This has promise. I'd look forward to seeing another chapter.

Thank you very much, I hope I don't disappoint in the future!

Very promising. I kinda like the idea of John and Sherlock both 'not fitting in' to family's expectations.

Thanks much for reading! I have a feeling Sherlock would have wanted any way out of sharing a house with Mycroft :D

Oh, poor Sherlock! I really want to cuddle him, even though he'd bite my head off just for trying! :D

I'm really enjoying this so far! You've done a great job with the descriptions; we've never seen inside Hufflepuff's common room in canon, but you've brought it to life beautifully. And John's reactions -- they were really well done, from disappointment to acceptance to reluctant happiness.

I look forward to reading more in this verse! I hope John starts warming up to Sherlock soon, poor baby!

thank you thank you thank you!!

I did a bit of reading up to see what had been said about the Hufflepuff common room, and JK said a few things in an interview, but there's really nothing at all. So I ran with what I had! I think it would be a pretty rad place to be, though.

I promise I'll have more up soon! Thanks again~~
