I’m not certain, but I’m guessing that Slytherin was the only dorm left undamaged after the battle of hogwarts seeing as it’s in a hard-to-get-to place, being under the lake and all.

can you imagine all these little first year Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors and Ravenclaws all crashing in the Slyth common room because they have no where else to go. Sure, the majority would have been evacuated before or during the battle so as not to get injured or in the way, but it’s unlikely that all would have been able to leave on such short notice.

imagine them all sitting huddled together because they’re afraid of these people who are supposed to be evil, who most of the school are apparently fighting a war against.

imagine the older Slytherins keeping their distance because they k n o w that the kids don’t trust them, but still sorting out beds for them, making sure that they’re all hydrated and fed, casting spells to make little floating candles that change colour like a nightlight for the kids who are scared of the dark. the more experienced kids casting silencing charms around the first years so that they can’t hear what is happening outside.

these tiny first year kids from different housing wondering how these people can be ‘evil’ at all.

I LOVE SHIT LIKE THIS

Oh man oh man oh man

The older Slytherins sitting up through the night to try and hear what’s happening outside

Slytherins taking up guard positions in the common room without quite realizing they’re doing it. Still in their pajamas, wands in their hands, looking up sharply every time they hear something explode

Slytherins hearing unforgiveable curses flying, mixed with the screams of their fellow students, realizing that the Death Eaters (family friends? their own relatives?) aren’t showing mercy to children

Slytherins knowing that any moment now they could be the only ones protecting these innocent little kids, as the sounds of battle get closer and closer

Slytherins rolling up their sleeves, gritting their teeth, throwing themselves into the battle for the sake of these poor tiny kids who didn’t ask for this shit

life hack: be best friends with a slytherin. they will steal cupcakes for you from work and tell you to drop toxic people from your life with no reservations. they will be the ones ordering you to stop and breathe and call in sick, to screw your commitments if they see you’re sacrificing your mental health. they’re the ones to say “don’t you dare settle” and “you deserve better” in a ruthless, matter-of-fact tone. they’ll be the ones saying it’s okay to put yourself first, the voice you need to hear after a long day or week or month. trust me, be best friends with a slytherin.

this is great becus im a slytherin and i work at a cupcake shop

or perhaps in slytherin you’ll make your real friends, those cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends.

i was talking to my friend about the similarities between gryffindor and slytherin, and he told me to come up with a concise way to explain the differences between the two.

so i told him, “if you make a gryffindor mad and they storm out on you, they’ll get a lot of satisfaction out of slamming the door behind them. but a slytherin will leave it wide open, because they’ll get the most satisfaction knowing they made you get up to close it.”
