animorphs in hogwarts?

[vanouria.livejournal.com]

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?

There is quite a gap between what the houses are stated to be and what they're actually portrayed as in the books. Like, JKR tells us that the Slytherins aren't all bad and that being a Slytherin doesn't meant hat you're evil, but she never actually shows that (which I tend to view as her own biases coming through.) I think you mentioned somewhere that Marco's a good example of a 'heroic' Slytherin, so he's basically a lot like what I imagine many Slytherins would be like, if they weren't being cast as the villains because JKR doesn't like cunning and ambitious people so much.

I can definitely see that! And I could imagine that with his home life, knowledge could have been something of a friend - since books are something that wouldn't neglect or abuse him. It is sad, and yet so incredibly amusing XD
