Okay, if Gryffindor is the house of doing stupid, maybe dangerous things because it’s fun, Slytherin is the house of doing the same things because fuck you, Sarah, don’t tell me what not to do
Being A Slytherin Would Include…
Gryffindor | Ravenclaw | Hufflepuff
* * *
- Getting excited every time the giant squid would swim past the glass in the common room
- Having to stock up on warm clothes bc damn it gets cold in there
- Everyone in the dorms having like ten blankets on their beds during winter
- Having huge games of Chinese whispers at the Slytherin table which confuses the whole school as to why all the Slytherins are deadly silent
- Having the sassiest and most sarcastic conversations ever with your house mates
- Staying up late on Friday nights with loads of other slytherins and playing weird drinking games with firewhisky while the minors watch in awe
- Always defending people from your house even if you’ve never talked to them before
- Getting confused as to why Slytherin is supposed to be the “badass” house because what actually goes on in the common room is eating competitions and rap battles
- Creating the strongest and most last-longing friendships
- Passing notes in class
- saying “fight me” under your breath to literally everything
- So much swearing
- Everyone swearing all the time that you forget that swearing is “bad”
- Getting told off in class for swearing
- “God fucking dammit i just spilled my fucking ink”
- “Excuse me?”
- “Sorry professor…slip of the tongue…”
- Getting extremely stubborn when people tell you what to do, making you do the opposite.
- Not being as huge a fan of Snape even though everyone thinks Slytherins worship him
- Getting really annoyed when people are surprised at how lovely you are, despite being in Slytherin
- Slytherin PRIDE
Hufflepuff aesthetic: sitting after a long day; pulling your blanket back on when it falls off in the night; broken cinnamon sticks; jumpers that are too big; putting on warm socks; your pet resting their head on your lap; butterfly kisses; extra creamy hot chocolate; humming in the morning;
Gryffindor aesthetic: being breathless after running; spinning fast on office chairs; untying your hair; having dirty feet; finishing big breakfast; holding hands; fire crackling; having red lips from berries; burning the tips of your fingers on hot drinks; brushing your hands through fur;
Slytherin aesthetic: making perfect paper creases; sucking on ice; rooms with high ceilings; looking up at the stars; getting up for a drink of water at night; brushing your hair behind your ears; heels clicking on polished floors; dancing home alone; driving fast; jumping high on trampolines; charcoal on fingers; blasting music on headphones; being light-headed after a sleep in;
Ravenclaw aesthetic: covering your eyes with your hair; cold wind on your face; brushed teeth; finishing a long book series; wearing extravagant clothes at home for no reason; sipping lemonade through straws; multi-tasking; hot showers; staying up late; quiet music; the taste of mint; perfectly sharpened pencils;
