Slytherin: The ones who help the first years get into the common room and navigate the staircases. The ones who are happy to give you the notes you missed in potions yesterday. The ones who love bright bubbly people and warm days. The ones who have friends from other houses. The ones who’s best friends are gryffindors, their “enemies”. The ones who can understand potions and non verbal spells the best because they have the patience and wit to practice them. Maybe not the dark colors of evergreen and black, but the happy ones of pink and yellow. Not every slytherin is dark and evil and brooding, but they’re all cunning people with great work ethic.
Ravenclaw: The ones who have insomnia and only finish their work in amazing time because they can’t sleep and have nothing else to do. The ones who are both perfectionists and procrastinators who leave everything until last second and then freak out trying to make everything look good with almost no time, but throwing something creative together just in the knick of it. The ones who hate to read, but love to party. The ones who hate studying, but get good grades anyway. Maybe not libraries and books, but parties and fun. Not all ravenclaws are book nerds and snobbish know it alls. They all have their own creativity and wit in different things.
