A Cursed Child Theory: Albus was sorted into Slytherin because Scorpius was.

HEAR ME OUT OKAY!!

The facts:

The sorting hat will take your wishes into account if you feel strongly enough

Albus felt very strongly about not wanting to be in Slytherin

The hat wasn't sure at first: "He puts his hat on ALBUS’s head – and this time he seems to take longer – almost like he too is confused."

So why was he sorted into Slytherin?

Because Scorpius was sorted into Slytherin, and Scorpius asked him if he wanted to be called Al or Albus.

We know our boy hates people calling him Al.

We know he feels an intense pressure to be who his family wants him to be.

Scorpius' first instinct was to ask him what he wanted to be called. In Albus' eyes, Scorpius was the first person in his life to put his wishes first. PLUS, we can only assume that after the scene cuts the two had the time of their little lives chatting on that train journey.

So when Scorpius was sorted into Slytherin, a little subconscious part of Albus' brain went "if he's in Slytherin, it's okay if I am too" and that's why the hat decided Slytherin.

In the first alternate universe (in the original script) he's in Gryffindor. Why? There's no Rose to force him to try and make a friend on the train, therefore no meeting with Scorpius, therefore he gets put in Gryffindor because Slytherin now has no redeeming qualities to him.

Scorpius' kind lil soul is the reason Albus Potter was put in Slytherin.

Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

1991

Draco extended his hand to Harry, Harry refused.

2017

Albus extended his hand to Scorpius, Scorpius took it.

Disclamer grr: I don't know sm about HP lore, I just saw some tiktoks and that's it

[all-too-random]

Albus would totally name his kids those silly little contellation/star names. Not bc he's trying to keep Scorpius' family tradition or anything (although that is a plus), just bc he wants to spite Harry.

I've been convinced hedgehog is another possible albus animagus form

[evawritesstuff]

Albus " stay away from my man bitch" Potter

Scorpius" stay away from my man please" Malfoy

Flirting Myrtle. Girl, that is a lost cause :)

Scorpius is too pure for this World.

Is ist just me or has anyone else a favourite Scorpius actor? I mean there are so many amazing actors who portrayed him. But for me there’s just one specific actor in my Head when I imagine Scorpius.

thomas grant and adam wadsworth scorbus moments that make me go feral

(all of these moments take place in toward the end after Scorpius asks Rose to be his friend on the staircase)

EDIT: i'm currently writing a fic about this scene. lemme know if you'd like to be added to the taglist for when it gets posted :)

Scorpius excitedly leaning into Albus' personal space (these boys faces were 3 inches apart) and Albus shyly laughing and fiddling with his hands every time Scorpius leans down

(we also know how averse Albus is to loud noises and invasions of personal space, so the complete trust and affection with which he allows Scorpius near him is so so sweet)

adding to the point above: Albus consistently flinches at loud, sudden noises and movements (flinching when James sneaks up on him, recoiling when James pretends that his arm is a snake about to strike in the opening scene, shying away to tuck into his parents' side when random fans of Harry, Ron, and Hermione try to wave to him at the station in the first scene)

Rose watching them gradually inch toward each other on the staircase and getting more excited the closer they get

(after Scorpius declares that his progress with Rose is something upon which to build his "Palace of Harmony") Albus panics and grabs his shoulders, stuttering as he asks "And that's who you'd want? In your palace of harmony?"

poor boy is afraid his best friend will fall in love with his cousin (sweetie, your cousin is literally rooting for you 5 feet away)

Albus panicking when Rose reappears, quickly standing up to avoid suspicion. even panicked, he can't bear not being in contact with Scorpius and keeps his hands on his shoulders

Albus' hands sliding from Scorpius' shoulders when he realizes that Rose knows

THE FACT THAT SCORPIUS IS COMPLETELY OBLIVIOUS

Rose (possibly the biggest Scorbus shipper in the entire family) gently telling Albus "You know, this is only going to be weird if you two let it be weird :)"

Albus' little voice crack when Rose asks if he's okay

Albus: "What's this? I thought we didn't hug?"

Scorpius: "I wasn't sure whether we should...in this new version of us."

(I originally thought "this new version of us" just referred to them being older/wiser, but now I think the "new version" refers to their budding romantic relationship

[crystcllise]

did you mean this entire scene:

bonus: once they finally say ‘i love you’ to each other, they can’t stop saying it

[kikiswords]

fighting the urge to rewrite the entire cursed child narrative where there's no time travel and voldemort but just albus and scorpius being kids and draco and harry coming to terms with their friendship

[hyperion-severus]

i’ve been too busy to draw it but does anyone remember the headcannon that when you marry a malfoy your hair starts to turn their iconic platinum blond color too? and that’s why narcissa’s hair looks the way it does in the movies? well i can’t stop thinking about albus and scorpius getting married and scorpius completely forgetting to mention it and like a only a week in to their marriage Albus freaks out over finding “grey hairs” in a small section at his hairline and they slowly take over in cool streaks like narcissa’s but with albus’ wild potter hair. scorpius is obsessed with how it looks but let’s be real he’s always been obsessed with albus’ hair
