Sad gryffindors trying to cheer up by telling themselves over and over again that they are brave and that they will get through it. That they will never give up and that they know that they can do it. Sitting in the common room and starring into the fire , reminding themselves that after every night comes a new dawn. They would snuggle themselves into the big, red, fluffy blanket that lie around during winter time and wait for the house elves to tell them that they do a good job. In return the elves would beam at them , get the some hot cocoa and scones and tell them what a kind soul they are. That they can cry, that they don’t have to be strong all the time even though that it what their house is known for.
Helpless hufflepuffs that are curled up in the herbology room close their eyes to inhale the soothing scent of flowers and herbs and spices. Magical plants that shower them in golden, flying drops and wipe away their tears. Fireflies would light up the dark in the room and the flowers would start to glow. The old plants would start to hum and to sing and make the pain of being at a loss go away. Hufflepuffs being comforted by they steady pulse of nature breathing in and out. Hufflepuffs showing their vulnerable side to magical flowers that would bury them in little, colourful pedals and tickle them to make them smile that beautiful smile again.
Clueless Ravenclaws . So when they have a block in their mind they accio their broom into their room and go for a flight just before the dawn. They are joined by testhrals and after the battle of hogwarts almost everyone can see them. They would be in the middle of the pack and be escorted to a safe place in the woods where they could sit down in silence and listen to the sounds of the forest. The creatures would lean into the pupils and comfort them with the presence. Ravenclaws being able to let go and fully relax and start thinking like a normal person again. The animals watching over them and making sure they get back safely.
Lonely Slytherins, when the pressure of making sure to always be the first and the best threatens to break them they sneak out of the castle at night and go down to the lake. They would sit in silence under the nightsky and stars and listen to the swapping of the waves. The merfolk would always watch them and when they deemed the time to be right they would swim to the students and take them by the hand, pull them into the water and swim with them. They would give them gillyweed and they could dive into the dark depths where mystical, magical creatures roamed and glowed and the squid would make sure that they are always safe and they would only be able to leave the lake when they were truly at ease and the voices in their heads were gone.
MAGICAL CREATURES BEING THERE TO HELP THE STUDENTS. MAGICAL BEAST BEING SWEETHEARTS AND CARING DARLINGS TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE TINY , LITTLE HUMAN BEINGS WOULD HAVE A BETTER LIVE THEN THEY HAD.
Hermione : I spy with my little eye something that begins with the letter “s”.
Ron looks over at Harry and Draco fighting each other : Is it “sexual tension”?
Hey, sorry not sorry but I had a thought in the middle of a group therapy session- don’t question me- Can we call Gryffindor the Gryffin-dorm? Ok, I’ll go die now, goodnight.
“Today, class, we will be making an exciting potion!” Professor Slughorn pipes. “Each of you already has the ingredients on your work table in front of you. Don’t touch them yet!” he ushers as one of the arrogant Gryffindors went to grab something. “These ingredients in particular make the creatura corpus potion. This potion works much like wolfsbane, but a short-term verion. You see, this concoction will turn any mythical creature and shift it to a human form for a small period of time depending on how well the potion was brewed.” he states. After he was finished explaining, Draco lazily flips to the page in his advanced potions book and began cutting the ginseng root into seven equal pieces, grinding the preficus wing into a fine powder, and mincing the calyfairvor. His partner, Blaise, was doing his tasks on the other end of the cauldron of boiling water. The blonde noticed, out of the corner of his eye, Blaise dropping pounded phealis crumbs before he could stop it from happening. The potion started bubbling, making ‘goop’ sounds. Blaise and Draco started pacing back, backing into the next table behind them. A large bubble of the murky green substance grew and popped, splattering in Draco’s direction. “Blaise! You so owe me!” Draco wiped the substance with his hands as his partner chuckled. Sparkles of light started shining around the blondes fingers and enveloped his whole body, stopping everyone’s laughter. Draco started to shrink, a terrified look on his face. His last reaction until he totally transformed was to look across the room on the Gryffindors side, straight into the green irises that watched in horror. The room went silent as the place where Draco Malfoy once stood was replaced with a white cobra snake. It lifted it’s little head and looked around the class at the amused/scared faces. It appeared to open its mouth to speak but it only came out in a hiss. “What are you all looking at?” Harry heard it say. The brunette stood and walked over to the dazed snake and started speaking in parseltongue. “Don’t freak out…” He said, apparating a mirror and showing off Draco’s new form. The new Draco sat there for a minute, staring at his reflection, not saying a word. Afterwards, he slithered over to his partner and started wrapping his body around their neck, choking them. Blaise let out a few strangled laughs before saying ‘worth it’ through his blocked air pipes. “Mister Malfoy, enough.” The professor stuttered while braking out of his surprizes daze. Draco, reluctantly, un wrapped himself and slithered onto the desk. “How do we reverse this?” he hissed at Slughorn. “He’s asking how to turn him back.” Harry acted as a translator. “Well, uh, there is one way I know. But it’s ridiculous. It may not work.” the professor nervously chuckled. Another series of hisses broke out from the cobra, and Harry coughed to stop him after he long made his point. “He asked to just say it anyway.” Harry chuckled, though he left out the rude parts. “Ah, yes. Well. The mishap can be undone by… a kiss from your chosen love.” Slughorn mutters loud enough with a deep sigh. “But surely something as ridiculous at that cannot work.” he added. “Is there some other way, professor? Malfoy is unable to love.” Ron mocks from his corner. “I do love someone, you insufferable prat.” Draco rolled his beady, little, blue eyes. Harry’s mouth gaped as he was the only one who could understand. Laughter broke out from behind Blaise and Draco’s worktable. Pansy Parkinson was brimming with her giggles. “Go on, Dray. Kiss whom you most dearly love.” she laughed even more when Draco pulled out his pure white hood and hissed venomously. She wiped a tear from her eyes and calmed down, smiling at the cobra. “I dare you.” She notes, and they stare at each other for a moment. “Potter, I need you to take me to someone.” Draco looks back to the emerald eyed Gryffindor. Harry nodded and picked Draco up, holding him close to his chest as to not drop him if they ran into someone, and left the classroom. After a bit of walking, the cobra tells Harry to stop. “Go into that alcove right there.” The Gryffindor was confused, but complied nonetheless. “I swear, Malfoy, if you bite me and leave me here to die, I will be so upset.” Harry closes the curtain. “I need you to kiss me.” Draco suddenly blurts out, leaving a following silence. “What?” Harry gulped, unable to hide his quickly spreading blush. “The professor said a kiss from your chosen love, correct? I’m sure you could fill it in from there. You’re not as dumb as you make yourself out to be.” Draco snaps back, avoiding eye contact… I think. Harry’s brain seemed to stop thinking at that moment. The only thing it pointed to was ‘do it’. He hadn’t an idea why. Maybe just to turn Draco back and get done with it. “Okay.” He said before he could convince himself otherwise. The little snakes head looked back at him (and as far as snake facial expressions could go) he could really hide his shock and confusion. “You better not be joking around cause then you just waisted both of our time.” Harry sighed, leaning over and placing a small peck to draco’s scaly lips. It wasn’t long until he felt his hands cupping soft cheeks and he was being smothered in affection. The kiss didn’t last long. Maybe a minute or two of slow, gentle movements. They separated, partially, still standing an inch away from each other. Draco felt Harry’s breath and could smell his woodley aftershave. “Thank you for changing me back.” he stepped back, feeling an emptiness when he didn’t get a response. Harry hated him. As Draco tried walking out of the curtains, a firm hand stopped him, holding his upper arm. “Draco, I-” Harry stared, but bit his lip when the blonde looked back in his adorable confusion. “Astronomy tower. Tonight. Uh, be there.” he blushed, quickly getting flustered by his vague instructions. Draco stepped back into the alcove, a small smile gracing his, usually stubborn features. “See you there, Harry.” He leaned forward slowly and placed another chaste kiss on Harry’s lips. The brunette’s hands found themselves to Draco’s chest, resting on his slim figure, fingers running over his silk robes.

there is an interesting tension to be had when both the malfoy and weasley families have been sorted into their respective hogwarts house for generations upon generations, and we come to find that despite surface-level appearances: draco isn't the most slytherin of slytherins, and ron isn't the most gryffindor of gryffindors
I like the soundtrack to this tik tok, so I’m posting it to show you guys.
There’s not really a reason for this but almost every fandom has a Harry Potter au and I was curious to see what house people think Gregory would be in
You are a true Ravenclaw if you know the struggles of sneaking to the kitchen at 5 am to have coffee without waking up your parents. It's freaking art!
-A Ravenclaw at 4 am, watching buzzfeed vids
i dream about you.
Do you think the concept of Slytherpuff (Slytherin and Hufflepuff) is adorable or is it just… not your cup of tea?
I’m just curious, that’s all.
Honestly I love all of the Hogwarts house pairings if done well. They all have their own fun dynamics.
My favourite is Slytherclaw because of how similar they are. Slytherpuff is also cute and adorable but I am kind of bored with the whole good x evil paring (or the sun/moon paring or whatever it's called). Give me the Dark Academia pair (Slytherclaw) and the Light Academia pair (Gryffinpuff).
What do you think of how Slytherin was flirting with the other houses and got flirted back?
I can imagine Hufflepuff didn’t realize they flirted with them and thought they were just complementing them.
I think Slytherin just randomly flirts with the other houses to see how they react.
Ravenclaw is either clueless and doesn't get that they were flirting or knows Slytherin is flirting and deliberately acts as if they don't know. If they know Slytherin is trying to get a reaction out of them and would rather let them suffer in silence than anything.
Gryffindor either flirts back to see how Slytherin will react or gets irritated at their constant fake flirtations.
Hufflepuff doesn't get that Slytherin is flirting and ends up flirting back accidentally in a way that makes Slytherin lose their mind.
As a Slytherclaw stan, I believe Slytherin and Ravenclaw don't flirt in public but are really good at it behind the scenes.
Gryffindor: did Ravenclaw just use "stupefy" on you?
Slytherin: me and my girl don't argue, she bash my head with a rock and I walk it off like a man.
Hufflepuff: *sneezes*
Slytherin: here *gives handkerchief*
Hufflepuff: you are so nice!
Slytherin: NO I AM NOT. I didn't want any germs from you. That's why I gave you a handkerchief.
Hufflepuff: :)
Ravenclaw: *gets papercut* ouch
Slytherin: *puts bandage on* I fucking hate you. Why do you hurt yourself all the time?
Ravenclaw: *whispers* how did you get in my house?
Slytherin: Gryffindor is stupid.....an idiot....useless
Someone: yeah, I agree. Gryffindor sucks
Slytherin: WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY ABOUT GRYFFINDOR?
(Headcanon: Slytherin is a soft Tsundere)
What would you do in a trolley problem? Hit the 5 people in your way or save them and hit a spectator?
Hufflepuff: I would not like to hit anyone but if I had to.....the spectator. Because killing one person is better than 5.
Gryffindor: I would hit the 5 people, it would be wrong to kill an innocent bystander.
Ravenclaw: try to stop the trolley somehow or else jump off the trolley, I can't handle responsibility.
Slytherin: hit the 5 people, then reverse the trolley and hit the spectator. No witness, no crime.
Slytherin and Ravenclaw on a date:
*Gryffindor spying on them with Hufflepuff*
Hufflepuff: this is so creepy, why are we here?
Gryffindor: why did you come then?
Hufflepuff: you told me we are getting ice cream and feed ducks in the pond!
Slytherin: they are spying on us aren't they?
Ravenclaw: ofc, hiding behind the lamp post won't help Gryffindor
Slytherin: do you know how we can scare them?
Ravenclaw: *nods* I am ready
*both pull out knives at the same time*
Ravenclaw: honey, are you ready for our next murder spree?
Slytherin: You bet I am. I heard someone following us.
Ravenclaw: the last victims are not even found yet....
Gryffindor looks at Hufflepuff: this is the moment.
Hufflepuff: what? I can't hear anything and why are they pulling out knives are they going to......
Gryffindor: RUN!!!!!!RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!!!
Hufflepuff: Ahhhhhh....all I wanted was to eat free ice cream!
Slytherin: they are not coming back
Ravenclaw: No.
Slytherin: why do you have a knife anyways? As a surgeon I have knives all over me.
Ravenclaw raises eyebrow: you never know when they come in handy...let's go I want cotton candy......NOW
Slytherin: *nervous laughter* you are so cute.
Ravenclaw: I have become accustomed to people being annoying. I am getting better dealing with them after I moved in with my new roommates. They are very unpredictable people---
Hufflepuff: ----Hey give me my pillow back, it's my favourite!!!!!
Gryffindor: I am not giving you this back, I need a pillow, I didn't bring one!
Slytherin: Give me the pillow Gryffindor!
*Gryffindor throws the pillow at Slytherin*
Slytherin: Here, take it *gives it back to Hufflepuff*
Gryffindor: I thought you were on my side! You betrayed me!
Slytherin: I just love watching you get mad.
Gryffindor: How am I supposed to sleep now without a pillow?
Slytherin: we can share one.
Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw: .....
Slytherin: why are you making this a huge deal? I sleep during the day and you sleep during the night, it's simple.
Gryffindor: Oh I thought you wanted to fuck....
Slytherin: you wouldn't?
Gryffindor: unless you want me to.
Hufflepuff: ....what is happening.....
Ravenclaw: Told you they are unpredictable, did you think this will be going in that direction?
Gryffindor turns to Ravenclaw: and you! Are you crazy? Who are you always talking to? What are you? Dora the Explorer?
Gryffindor: Is Ravenclaw alright? What's wrong with them?
Hufflepuff: what do you mean by that, they look completely fine!
Gryffindor: they are literally crying in corner with a cup of coffee since half an hour.
Hufflepuff: we all cry sometimes out of the blue...
Gryffindor: really? I DON'T. Hey Slytherin can you talk to Ravenclaw? You seem like the only person who understands them
Slytherin: *shrugs in a nonchalant way* Okay
(Walks to Ravenclaw, bends down and asks softly)
Slytherin: are you alright, buddy?
Ravenclaw: I finished a book and....
Slytherin: and your favourite character died?
Ravenclaw: YES AND I'M DEPRESSED. WHY DO THE GOOD CHARACTERS DIE?
Slytherin: and was this character a morally grey anti hero?
Ravenclaw:......how do you know.
Slytherin: I get it I have been there *patting their head*
Gryffindor: did I just witness Slytherin showing affection?
Hufflepuff: *squee*
(I know we all love the Hufflepuff×Slytherin but....I LOVE Ravenclaw×Slytherin way more!!!! It's like two very similar people but yet so different. And THE POTENTIAL CHEMISTRY!!!)
Gryffindor: So, guys what's our plan?
Slytherin: having a plan is lame, let's improvise.
Hufflepuff: it's Ravenclaw's birthday so let them decide....
Gryffindor: I was thinking Raven can do with some more friends, I will invite all my 300 friends to the party.
Slytherin: I was thinking about a masquerade. Something dramatic like Ravenclaw.
Hufflepuff: but guys they hate party or crowded event and noise...
Gryffindor: you know what I am thinking about...
Slyhterin: Fireworks!!!!
Gryffindor: it will be our best party yet!
Ravenclaw to Hufflepuff (via text): this is why I avoid people.
Is killing someone wrong?
Slyherin: No.
Gryffindor: I mean there are some people that need to be uh....eliminated.
Ravenclaw: depends on the person and if you can get away with it.
Hufflepuff: YES!!!!!
