Poll Time! Leverage Goes to Hogwarts!!

[sheryden]

So I have a SUPER-important poll! If the Leverage team and Sterling went to Hogwarts, what Houses might they have been in? I'm sure this has probably been discussed, as every fandom seems to have a "What if they had gone to Hogwarts" discussion at some juncture. But either way, I'm in a polling mood

Oh good, it's not just me.

See, I peg Nate and Sterling as Slytherin, but the rest?

I see Eliot as a Gryffindor (or maybe a Hufflepuff). I see Parker as a Ravenclaw, and Hardison as a Hufflepuff. While he's incredibly smart, he's also the good, patient, hardworking guy who spends his weekends making FBI outfits, stays home with Nate while the others are elsewhere, and is a natural nurturer.

I found Parker and Eliot the hardest to sort. I kept flipping between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff for the both of them

Parker was a toughie, but I went with Ravenclaw for her. I kind of see her as a Luna Lovegood figure. She may not be conventionally educated, but she's still bright. And she sees the world in her own unique way.

I bounced between the same too houses for Eliot. I went with Gryffindor, but I think he'd have been happy with Hufflepuff, too.

Even though I love Eliot, but hate Gryffindor, I have to peg Eliot as a Gryffindor. He's too noble and self-sacrificing for his own good. Fits Gryffindor to a T.

Nate and Sterling are both Slytherin. No question. Rules are what they each say they are, not what anyone else thinks.

Sophie was the hardest. In the end, I go with Ravenclaw because she's sharp, refined and sophisticated, and all of that seems to scream "Ravenclaw" to me. It could go Slytherin as well, but she's more lawful good than the rest, I think, thus Ravenclaw.

Parker... oh, Parker. Her moral compass is off-kilter, which puts her out of the running for Gryffindor or Hufflepuff. And she's not big on the book smarts or sophistication, so Slytherin just fits best.

As to Hardison, he's a good kid. An innocent kid, for the most part, until the end of season 3 and the pool incident. I see him kind of like Cedric Diggory, only Hardison lived to tell the tale.

While Parker may not have book smarts, per se, she is hampered by the fact that she didn't actually go to high school. I think she's still has the intellectual capacity for Ravenclaw, though. I kind of see her as a Luna Lovegood figure. She's bright, but she marches to the beat of her own drummer.

But agreed on the rest. Nate would probably try to take over the damn school, lol.

I think Nate would've had that Harry Potter moment under the sorting hat. He would've wanted to go the honest way, even though the hat could clearly see his Slytherin side.

I also think Eliot could have gone either way between Griffindor and Hufflepuff. I went for Hufflepuff because there's too much hand-wringing and philosophizing in Griffindor. Eliot would've wanted to be with people who could just put their heads down and get the job done.

Parker was the toughest one for me. I'm not sure the poor girl really fits in anywhere, except with her Leverage family.

[sheryden]

I think either Gryffindor or Hufflepuff would have suited Eliot, but I went with Gryffindor. He just resonates with me more as a Gryffindor.

Now, Parker. She was a tough one. I went with Ravenclaw, because I see her a bit of a Luna Lovegood figure. She sees the world in a different way, but she's obviously bright.

Poor Sterling. Almost everyone put him in Slytherin, lol.

[beggar_always]

I honestly think the Sorting Hat would get confused with Parker and invent a whole new house for her. It would win at everything.

[sheryden]

LOL! I could see that!
