animorphs in hogwarts?

i'm really sorry if this was discussed before, as i'm sure it's come up somewhere at some point :) what houses do you think the animorphs would be in? i would say the following:

rachel: gryffindor
cassie: hufflepuff
marco: slytherin (or possibly ravenclaw)
ax: ravenclaw

i'm a little up in the air with jake and tobias though. jake for example is very brave but not reckless the way rachel is. i feel like he's a bit of a gryffindor/ravenclaw in the beginning and then turns more towards slytherin towards the end as the decisions he has to make have bigger consequences. as for tobias, possibly hufflepuff as he's extremely loyal but then i also sense ravenclaw from him too. what do you guys think?

Tobias kind of bailed in book 3 when he went all-out hawk for a couple of days. I wouldn't say Cassie avoids responsibility, either--if anything, she took too much responsibility at times and thus was unable to distance herself from her actions in the war.

I would actually place Rachel in Slytherin (and I flove Rachel, so this isn't an insult).

Hmm, I wouldn't really call that bailing, since Tobias didn't consciously choose to do that. He more had a mental breakdown. And with Cassie, I meant more the way she avoids the responsibilities of many decisions. Like how if a decision might result in really serious consequences, she'll often try to avoid being the one to make the call. She does take on responsibilities in lots of other ways though, so I'm probably explaining really badly here XD

I love Marco and I stick him in Slytherin, so I get that it's not an insult :P I just can't imagine Rachel there, because to me Slytherin is all about ambition and cunning, and I just can't can't really see those traits in Rachel.

Agreed. The book was an absolute trainwreck, but I think it's one of the few things #37 got right. Rachel will and can do terrible things. That's not the same skillset as being able to make terrible plans. That is more Jake, Marco and at times Cassie's terriority. Not to say she isn't capable of being cunning and doing what needs to be done -- they all are -- but it's not her forte.
