Where are these guys on a scale from "uncanny sense of direction" to "could get lost in a paper bag?" (I believe in my heart that Gideon is the latter)

[robbno]

Interesting things found in the second hand store.

The internal scream hero?

A certain british guy named after a vegetable, is probably looking for this.

This saddle looks like a duck's face.

This character's legs.... Are those thighs or feet? Why did they have to cut it there?

Sometimes I walk around the library and find little problems to solve.

Mine is to not be consumed alive by the chaotic maw of my fabric room as I try to sort and organizing it. Please say a prayer to whatever entity you worship that I am able to bring it to heel

Sometimes it just hits differently

[todays-xkcd]

Of course, I sort all my bookshelves the normal way, alphabetically (by first sentence).

Like I did with the moral alignments, I thought I would make a post about why and how I sort characters into Hogwarts Houses! There are also quizzes so you can figure it out for yourself as well. I go into detail about each House, what they represent, their background and what it means to be sorted into a certain House. 

I hope you enjoy!

*just because I’m talking about Harry Potter doesn’t mean I align with the transphobic views of J.K. Rowling. There is no room for transphobia on my page, and I support the trans and LGBTQIA+ community*

Figuring out which Hogwarts House you belong to has been around since the HP series came out. But I think there’s more to it than simply choosing to be in ‘the brave house’ or ‘the smart house.’ I think it reveals a lot about a person - or rather, a large aspect. 

Here are a few tests for you to try, comment below what you got!

Test 1 (the ‘official’ Wizarding World quiz)

Test 2 (from IDRlabs, they have other personality quizzes as well!)

Test 3 (Here’s the full Pottermore quiz. The 1st quiz will only have a few questions, so that’s why I don’t think it’s fully accurate to take)

Test 4 (A really good one from Quotev, the questions/answers aren’t obvious)

Gryffindor: Do what is right. Hufflepuff: Do what is kind.  Ravenclaw: Do what is wise. Slytherin: Do what is necessary.

“ Where dwell the brave at heart, their daring, nerve and chivalry set Gryffindors apart “

𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡: Fire

𝐹𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦: ‘Bold Gryffindor, from wild moor’, Godric Gryffindor. 

Dwelled at Godric’s Hollow

Was an accomplished dueller

A fair man, he believed that any child who displayed magical abilities before their 11th birthday should be able to attend Hogwarts.

Gryffindor was the original owner of the Sorting Hat

Gryffindor also had a sword made, which would present itself to any true Gryffindor in a moment of need.

He was allegedly the best friend of Slytherin before he left Hogwarts

Godric will always be known for his accomplished skills in battle, and his fight against Muggle discrimination in the wizarding world.

𝐸𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑡𝑠:

Courage

Bravery

Standing up for what you believe in - even if your voice shakes. 

Caring about the greater good 

Daring/Bold 

Having a deep need to do the right thing 

Standing out from the crowd

“ You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal. Those patient Hufflepuffs are true. And unafraid of toil. “

𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡: Earth

𝐹𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦: ‘From valley broad,’ Helga Hufflepuff

A kind and warm woman who believed in loyalty, patience and hard-work as the best abilities a person can possess

Was a brilliant cook and had remarkable skills for preparing food. Her recipes are still used in Hogwarts to this day.

She brought the house-elves to Hogwarts

Owner of Hufflepuff’s Cup

She was the best friend of Rowena Ravenclaw

𝐸𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑡𝑠:

Loyalty

A need for justice. A lot of the Hufflepuff and Gryffindor traits are intertwined, but the difference is that Gryffindors don’t need to know a person to feel the need to look out for them. 

Patient 

Believe in fairness and equality (Helga Hufflepuff was the only founder who believed everyone should have a fair chance in being taught)

Accepting

Thinks about other people more than themselves

Would do anything at all, for family

“ Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, If you’ve a ready mind, Where those of wit and learning, Will always find their kind. “

𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡: Air

𝐹𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦: ‘From Glen,’ Rowena Ravenclaw

A sharp and intelligent woman

She wanted to make Hogwarts the finest wizarding school in the world, teaching only those with the highest intelligence 

Rowena wore a diadem that was said to grant wisdom to the wearer, however, Rowena’s own daughter grew jealous of her mother’s incredible intelligence. Helena Ravenclaw stole her mother’s diadem and ran away, a fact that Rowena kept hidden from her fellow founders even when she fell ill.

Wanting to see Helena before she died, Rowena sent a man to bring Helena home. Unfortunately, that man was the Bloody Baron, who was in love with Helena, and stabbed her in a rage when she refused to come home.

 After Helena was tragically killed, legend tells us that Rowena Ravenclaw died of a broken heart. 

She was the best friend of Helga Hufflepuff

𝐸𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑡𝑠:

Intelligence

Wisdom

Witty

Open-minded - don’t mix well with traditional, close-minded people. Ravenclaws see the big picture, they think about what things could be, rather than what things are. 

They think outside of the box, they don’t like being confined by rules or traditions. 

Unique 

Individualistic/Original

Actually very intuitive

“ Or perhaps in Slytherin, You’ll make your real friends. These cunning folk use any means to achieve their ends. “

𝐸𝑙𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡: Water

𝐹𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦: ‘From Fen’, Salazar Slytherin

He believed strongly that only wizards of pure blood 

This belief caused a big rift between the founders, especially Gryffindor, which led to the depature of Salazar 

Despite his flaws, Salazar was a talented wizard, skilled in Legilemency and Parseltongue

Before he left, however, he created the Chamber of Secrets

𝐸𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑠𝘩𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑡𝑠:

Ambition

Determination

Cunning

Traditional

Strategic

Willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals; even using others for their gain. 

Not all Slytherins use these traits for personal gain, however, because the founder was evil - doesn’t mean every Slytherin is. 

Resourceful

Cleverness

Family means a lot to them

Desires respect

Criminal Minds characters as avatars from TMA:

Elle: Easiest one to classify: she'd be an avatar of the Hunt through and through.

Spencer: Avatars are weird because most of the time they end up Becoming an avatar of the patron they fear the most, but sometimes that isn't the case so it depends. He would either be a Spiral avatar (because of his own fears of schizophrenia) or a Web avatar (because of his struggles with addiction). Most people who know TMA would go with Eye, I think, for the obvious reasons, but I feel like that would fit only in the superficial sense. Like, obviously he knows a lot, and is thirsty for knowledge, but that alone isn't what makes an Eye avatar.

Morgan: Honestly, I'm not sure, but I'm leaning towards the Lonely because of his trust issues.

Emily: The Stranger. She's a spy who can fit into any persona she wants to, and sometimes she gets lost in them.

Gideon: The Eye. He was the best at profiling (imo) and he suffered for it. He doesn't need Eye powers to see into someone's head, and its scary when it does.

Garcia: The Corruption. The Corruption has many aspects, and one of its biggest revolves around being a "hive", not just in the collectivist sense but in the sense of belonging. I don't mean she'd be a Corruption avatar in terms of the contamination aspect (she's actually a bit of a neat-freak in canon, in her own unique way), but she definitely puts her soul into making the BAU a family. The Corruption would be a good fit for her. Isn't a hive a family too?

Rossi: I honest to god don't know. I love him but I'm drawing a blank here. Maybe Eye? Or Slaughter, since he was in the military?

Hotch: He's my favorite character in the show, but none of the Fears really stand out to me as the obvious choice. Buried, End, Desolation, Eye...or maybe the Lonely, but I'm not sure that really fits either. In terms of aesthetic, I would see him as the Buried, I think. But I'm really not sure.

JJ: No idea. Aesthetically, the Vast.

Alex: The Eye. Maybe also the End, because of Ethan.

I got a new book and was finding where to put it when I thought about how other people probably sort their books differently, so now I’m curious!

[elvishdemigod]

So how do you sort the books on your shelves?

Personally, I sort them by color and height. Like tallest red to shortest red, tallest orange to shortest orange, so on. Not only does it look nicer, but it's easier for me to remember what book I'm looking for by size and color than by name.

So, here

[itsricepudding]

Sometimes you just gotta dump out a bag of buttons and sort them by color fr
