[Lydia is sitting on a park bench in the middle of the day, having her lunch and looking fabulous.

The Sorting Hat twirls from mid-air into the frame, settling on Lydia's fabulous strawberry blonde hair. Slowly her glance creeps upward as she pauses mid-bite of her salad.]

Do you mind? You're giving me hat hair.

SLYTHERIN!

The hat uplifts off her head and whirls away back into the air and out of frame once more. Lydia's brows furrow, and then with a shrug, she goes back to eating her lunch. Fabulously.

Such a blase attitude, Mademoiselle.

[lefthandedgenius]

It takes a lot to impress a Slytherin.

[luxuryflower]

Ah, how silly of me. I should have known, of course.

Re: video;

[lefthandedgenius]

Did you get Sorted?

[luxuryflower]

Indeed, I did. I am, it seems, a Slytherin as well - although I shan't say that I didn't show greater distress for the state of my hair afterwards.

[lefthandedgenius]

I can't say I'm surprised - Slytherin is the House that admires ambition and tenacity.

[You strike her as ambitious and tenacious. These are good things!]

[luxuryflower]

I do not conceal my true nature. If I strike you as one such woman, it is undoubtedly true.

[lupusalpha]

What does that mean?

[lefthandedgenius]

It means the Sorting Hat sorted me into Slytherin. And also gave me hat hair.

[lupusalpha]

[Pause.]

Your hair looks fine.

[lefthandedgenius]

Thanks. Did the hat land on your head?

[lupusalpha]

I don't think it's coming out into the woods.

[studmuffin]

Huh.

[ It ... makes sense? ]

[lefthandedgenius]

[Lydia eyes him.]

Did you get Sorted too?

[studmuffin]

Hufflepuff.

[ Never meant to be. :c ]

[lefthandedgenius]

That's sweet. You're a very good finder.

[Don't blame her for the limits you put on yourself, darling.]

[studmuffin]

The fact that you know that is alarming and kind of arousing.

[ C'mon, Lyds. ]

[lefthandedgenius]

'Alarming' and 'arousing' are two adjectives that adequately describe me, yes.

Do go on.

[Lydia in Slytherin mode: there is no stopping her.]

[studmuffin]

You don't need me to stroke your ego, Lydia.

[lefthandedgenius]

No, I just like it. I mean, not gonna lie, you know?

[studmuffin]

Yeah, I guess?

[SIGH.]

None of my friends are Ravenclaw!

[lefthandedgenius]

Aww, Pavel. You don't think I make an excellent Slytherin?

[candothat]

No one has told me the qualities of Slytherin, but I think that you would make an excellent whatever you are sorted as.

[lefthandedgenius]

Leadership, resourcefulness, cleverness and cunning.

[Cue dimpled smile!]

[candothat]

Yes, that sounds correct. You could have been Ravenclaw, also--intelligent, witty, and wise.

[lefthandedgenius]

How often am I going to have to tell you how sweet you are, because really. I could eat you up. Did Lucy get Sorted as well?

[candothat]

As long as there is no cannibalism, you may tell me as often as you like.

Yes, and she is Hufflepuff. I have no idea what this means.

[stelecharm]

It looks like we'll be seeing a lot more of each other.

[lefthandedgenius]

[A smile.] Explain to me how that's a bad thing.

[stelecharm]

Oh, I wasn't saying it was a bad thing, in fact it's far from it.

[saturniapavonia]

Welcome to the cool house.

[lefthandedgenius]

Darling, did you have any doubt I wasn't always in the cool house?

[saturniapavonia]

A party of one isn't a house.

[lefthandedgenius]

That's why you're there, too.
