spaceHaving the last name Whitethorne sucked, Desi decided. She'd always liked her last name before, because it sounded awesome. Like something out of one of those gothic romances her mum pretended she didn't read. Lady Desiree Whitethorne, and her charming brother Zachary, half-vampire scourges who are hated and beloved by all. Waiting for the sorting, though, made her utterly despise her last name. What made it even worse was that, of the three Whitethornes, count them, three! starting school this year, her name came first alphabetically, which meant that she couldn't even convince the hat to put her in Zach's house. It'd have to be up to him to convince the hat to put him where she already was, and Desi doubted that would happen. Mostly because her brother wasn't as stubborn as her. Instead of sticking to his fangs, he always seemed to come up with 'well, at least's to try and placate her when things didn't go their way. That was unacceptable.
spaceAnd, worse still, Kory's name was in between theirs. She'd have to wait through her cousin's sorting to even hear where her brother was going! And what if they weren't in the same house, huh? And what if she wasn't in the same house as Zach, but was in the same house as Kory? She loved her cousin to death, but she didn't want to share a room with her! The only person she wanted to share a room with was her brother!
spaceFinally, finally, after forever, the line dwindled down and her name was called. Taking a deep breath, Desi marched towards the hat, and sat down on the stool quite determinedly. 'Wherever you stick me, you better stick my brother there, too,' she told it, eyes narrowed. She was not going to be bested by a ratty old rag of a hat! Not even if it was bloody psychic! It was going to give her what she wanted, just like everyone else did! If not... Well, she and Zach would find a way, wouldn't they? They always did, consequences be damned. And she'd eat the hat. Thinking it wasn't as satisfying about thinking she'd eat other people who made her mad, seeing as it was a hat and not a person full of tasty blood, but she'd at the very least shred it with her teeth a bit. That's show it.
PLAYFUL xxx»» Desi enjoys it when people play with her; she has a very active imagination, and a good deal many stuffed animals to create increasingly dramatic backstories for. She likes getting her family members to sit down with her and play, and will often be very put out if they don't have the time. She also has a very hard time sitting still if she's not properly distracted, loving to run around and make mayhem. Her playful nature also extends to how she speaks to her loved ones, much to their annoyance at times, as she loves nothing more than to tease them and get under their skin.
SHY xxx»» Desi is quite comfortable with the people she knows at this moment in her life, thank you very much. She doesn't like meeting new people, and generally hides behind her brother when forced to. She doesn't like anyone until Zach decides they're okay, and even then can be skeptical, because her brother isn't nearly as discerning as she'd prefer. She doesn't bond with people quickly, unless she is told they are family. And, being family isn't a surefire way to get her to like someone, since she's skeptical regarding how she could possibly be family with everyone.
DEMANDING xxx»» Desi likes getting her way. Being spoiled rotten in her early years left her with a certain expectation. Desi wants, Desi gets, and if someone doesn't oblige her, she'll find someone else who will. She's quick to play her parents and others against each other to get her way, and gets very annoyed when they catch onto her ploys. She doesn't ever think the thing she asks for are that big of a deal, and so doesn't see why she can't simply have them.
SHARP xxx»» She is very observant, and quick to pick up on things. Her heightened senses make it easy for her to eavesdrop on conversations, or notice small details that others would miss. She rarely has difficulty reading between the lines. She also gets a sense of satisfaction from calling people out when they're telling half-truths or trying to be evasive. Though, her favorite thing to do is to call attention to things others might wish no one had seen, such as an embarrassing trip over their own feet or the fact that their socks don't match.
AFFECTIONATE xxx»» Children are impressionable, and the impression the Desi has gotten from the vast majority of her family is that when you love someone, you show it. While she thinks her parents are a tad dramatic at times (and is quick to roll her eyes at them), she can't help but think that they're doing something right. So, she never hesitates to share her love with the people she cares about. Unfortunately, this can make her distaste for others quite apparent.
OPINIONATED xxx»» Desi, for one so young, is quite sure of herself, and of the world around her. She has a great many beliefs that she holds quite strongly about How Things Work, and she's quick to share them. She becomes frustrated when she's argued with, doubly so if someone comes at her with a sound argument. The only person who can correct her without her getting bent out of shape is her brother.

Zach had been nervously chewing on his bottom lip all evening, barely even wincing when he accidentally drew blood and sucking on the wound. Not that he was worried about being kicked out of the school. He was already a wizard, it wasn't that part he was worried about. It was mostly where he was supposed to go. His sister was certainly not going to go to the same house as he was, since their personalities weren't the same. He didn't exactly want to tell the hat where he should go either. His father had told him that whatever the hat decided was bound to be the best fit for him. Not that it helped any. Every single member of his family had gone off into separate houses, and he was probably going to be no exception. His sister, well, he hoped that his sister went somewhere where she wasn't going to be overwhelmed. Blue eyes sought her out as he felt the hat start to descend over his head. His only thought was that wherever he went, he fit in, and that his sister had people in her house that could help her out. If not, well, he was certain that Desi was going to end up giving him the password or whatever to her common room, so it wasn't a big deal.

◊ ACTIVEZachary is an active child, and wants to be doing everything at once. He loves engaging in new things, and tries to see if there's something he can try and figure out. He can often be found doing something, even if it's simply being outside helping his mum with the plants she grows. ◊ FRIENDLYZach also happens to be friendly and wants to meet everyone. He's not afraid to approach anyone, and often acts as a buffer between his sister and other people until she gets used to them. He's more willing to deal with outgoing people than his sister as a result. ◊ ADVENTUROUSZach takes after his uncle in that he's willing to jump into any situation and see what happens. He often times tries to sneak away from home to explore the countryside around Hogsmeade, and often gets into trouble during these excursions. He enjoys discovering something new, even if it's only new to him and not to other people. ◊ PLAYFULZach is also playful, and likes to laugh a lot. He finds life enjoyable, and wants to experience as much of it as he can. He loves to find a good joke, and often times can be seen with his friends out and about goofing off. He does know when to get serious, as he understands there's a time and a place for everything, even having fun. That does not stop him from playing up the fact that he is a half-vampire, as he finds other people's reactions funny. ◊ CALCULATINGZach is perceptive of things around him, and considers everything around him before he acts. Whether it's during his adventures or outside of him, he loves considering every aspect of a situation before jumping in. He also is this way in regards to learning and people, as he considers all viewpoints before he makes a decision. ◊ PATIENTDespite everything, Zach is a very patient person. He understands he isn't like anyone he knows other than his sister, and tries his best to understand everyone else's viewpoints. He also is very patient in dealing with his sister, who he knows doesn't like being around a lot of people, as evidenced by the fact that she often uses him as a go-between for her and other people.

Jeremy remained with the group not wanting the hassle of lagging behind. He could hear others mumbling about what house they would get. He knew what would fit him and hopefully, the sorting hat was smart enough to see that. He was like his whole family other than his weird mom. His mom had been Ravenclaw but he more exhausted by her. Oh, he loved his mom she could be annoying though. They were stopped before the hat so Jeremy crossed his arms and watched the sorting. His last name landed him late middle in line. He was almost zoned out when his name was called. ”Jeremiah Travers” Well here goes... he went to sit on the stool and crossed his arms again as the hat was placed on his head. ‘Look Hat, we both know where I need to be, it the same place you put everyone else in my family but my mom, but she's weird, and I’m not her level of weird. Let's just stick me in the right spot so you can get to the actually difficult choices’ He thought to the Hat he was starting to get a bit hungry and it was annoying. Those pancakes seemed forever ago. If it smart enough to sort them it was smart enough to do it right.

Detch climbed up on the stool, ready to get this over with. Not that he had anything against the hat, he just didn't want to be stuck sitting up on a stool all evening. He looked around and waited for the hat to descend, seeing his brother sitting at Hufflepuff and frowning. Wasn't Byuch a Slytherin? Then again, considering his best friend was a Hufflepuff, it made sense. Whether Detch would go there was another matter altogether.

◊ FRIENDLYDetch is quite friendly when he is comfortable around someone. He doesn't have a hard time with getting along with people, however he doesn't like being surrounded by complete strangers. The friends he does have he willingly talks to with no problems. ◊ CLEVERDue to his goblin heritage, Detch is particularly clever. His mind can easily understand complex problems and come up with solutions, and it is a rare moment when he is stuck on a problem. He also has quite a mind for numbers, and loves number problems. ◊ OPEN-MINDEDUnlike his brother, Detch is particularly open-minded. He's seen the effects of bigotry and doesn't want to have anything to do with it. He is willing to listen to and mingle with everyone he can, regardless of who they are or where they come from. He judges people based off of their actions, not what they are. ◊ CREATIVEDetch is also creative. He doesn't have an issue coming up with new and innovative ways to solve problems, and when confronted with a unique situation, he doesn't have an issue with improvising to find the solution. He enjoys looking at things from an abstract angle when given the chance. ◊ QUIETDetch is actually pretty quiet unless engaged. He doesn't like raised voices that much due to his home life, and retreats from arguments when he can. He rather enjoys finding a quiet place to retreat to to think, and isn't known to be outgoing. ◊ OPINIONATEDDespite everything, Detch has his own opinions on matters and doesn't mind voicing them when he feels he has to. This trait has caused some problems in the past, as he's gotten into a few arguments with his brother, but he doesn't think he should stay silent when he feels something is wrong. If nothing else, he thinks that by voicing them, he can confront the problem and solve it rather than let it become worse.

Oh wow the ceiling was the sky! And it wasn’t called the great hall for nothing! It was huge! She nearly forgot about here not so her not so great boat trip, there was just so much here going on! She spotted her sister at what she assumes was the Hufflepuff table. Waving as they passed Fiona almost bumped into the person in front of her. Oops! That be embarrassing. She watched the hat as it started sorting people. It wasn’t long before it was her turn the fact she had a last name that started with a C put her nearly to the front. She felt bad for any Z’s the be here awhile “Fiona Calderwood” She jumped a bit at her name despite fully expecting it. She sucked up her nervousness and walked up to the stool. She sat down and the hat was placed on her head pushing her curly locks down. Hopefully she be easy enough to place. Would she be with her sister in Hufflepuff? That be nice but maybe she belonged elsewhere? Her dad disagreed she was too headstrong for Hufflepuff, her mom who was a Muggle agreed with being in a different house as the sisters were different themselves. Well it was the hats job to know that, right?

Caleb wasn’t a fan for the red haired girl. The boy named Jeremy however had answered that he was a pureblood as well. This pleased the middle Devereux son. He might be someone he could socialize with if need be. Not that Caleb was overly worried about making friends. He didn’t need friends he needed connections. Decent ones at that. If he could stay away from any undesirables he’d be fine. He’d be even better if he could find something on his brother Julius.
Walking from the boathouse to the great hall, he was far from nervous. The hall was of no surprise. Caleb looked to the house of Slytherin knowing that would be his home soon enough. He watched as those before him were sorted and waited for his name to be called. “Caleb Devereux.” He straightened up then before walking up to the stool. Taking a seat, he waited for the hat to be placed on his head. ‘I’m a Devereux, a real Devereux so you know where I should go.’ He thought, there was no doubt he belonged in Slytherin. Nothing would convince him otherwise. ‘So put me in Slytherin like you did my brother.’
■ HOSTILEI’m not going to hide that I have a short fuse. There’s no point. I’m easily frustrated. Quick Tempered, I tend to always go looking for a fight. Violence is my go to answer for everything. Though, I tend to hide that from parents, teachers, and anyone else of authority. I’m not the best at showing my feelings. The only feeling I’m really good at is anger and irritation. If I’m not physically fighting I’m certainly verbally arguing with someone. At times I can be a bit harsh by saying things that in my opinion are the truth. ■ OPINIONATEDLike I said, I have my own opinions. I’m not afraid to say any and all opinions I might have no matter what they might be. Even if what I have to say wouldn’t be classified as very nice by some, I’ll generally say it anyways. I’m honest with what annoys me and what I think. Some might say I come off as arrogant. A lot of my comments tend to involve blood purity. I have a strong dislike of those lesser then myself and I’m not afraid to admit it. I might not have the best tact when it comes to admitting it but it isn’t my problem if others can’t take what I have to say. ■ PERCEPTIVEDespite always getting into fights, I’m good at figuring people out. I know when something I said bothers someone I just don’t really care. I can figure out what people like or don’t like, what people are good or not so good at. All it takes is being able to pay attention to those around you. I may not care but I can still do my ‘homework’. Though not one to show it off like some, I can be actually quite clever. I am quite observant, noticing details that some might not. ■ DEDICATEDI’m loyal first and foremost to my family and then to those who gain my trust. Sure I’m not the biggest fan of my siblings but they do matter to some degree. My family name is important it isn’t something I can just walk away from. Though, people I trust are few and far between. Even so, if I do trust someone, they will find themselves with an ally. I’m also dedicated to get the things I do right. I’m not a perfectionist but I won’t stop till I get it right. ■ DECEITFULNow I may be honest with my opinions but I’m also good at playing innocent. When I get into fights with my younger brother Quinn I tend to make it appear like I’ve done nothing wrong. Half the time my parents never find out about the fights I get myself into. I prefer to keep myself out of trouble. One day I hope to become heir over my brother Julius. If I have to find dirt on him to get it I will. If it gets me what I want so be it.

Elisabet had followed the teacher into the giant Great Hall, eyes wide as she regarded the hundreds of other students crowded in the room. She stood in line, staying near Cady as she watched the lady say a hat would sort them. Wow, this magic stuff was really weird. The hat then spoke aloud, and Elisabet's eyes went wide in shock. All at once, the other students started being called up one by one, and the hat would yell out the house they were in. Seemed simple enough, though she wondered how it worked. Did it read minds? Was it pre-programmed? No, that wouldn't work, no electricity.
Suddenly, she heard her own name ring out above the din of the students. Feeling that all eyes would soon be upon her, Elisabet slipped her sweater sleeve down to cover her prosthetic. She figured she could let it show, just not... not on the first day. She didn't want to be considered weird on her very first day. Then again, she figured Cady liked it, so maybe. The brunette made the trek up to the front, sitting carefully on the stool. She allowed her eyes to close as the hat was settled on her head.
xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Rᴇsɪʟɪᴇɴᴛ: Elisabet has been a fighter for as long as she's been alive. She learned to adapt without her left arm at an early age, and has fought to live as normal a life as possible since. xxxxx⇾Tʀᴜsᴛᴡᴏʀᴛʜʏ: Elisabet does her best to be a great friend, and is good at holding secrets. She puts her faith in other people, and loves the feeling when others trust her, particularly when the other option is pity. xxxxx⇾Lᴏʏᴀʟ: Elisabet is a fierce friend, and would do anything if it meant her friends could be happy.

Nani was stoked to get to be sorted. She'd talked to her new friend, Tegan, about flowers and stones, glad that the girl had chosen to sit with her. After the antechamber, she skipped into the Great Hall, looking happily at everyone and everything around. There was so much to see, but she was too distracted to focus on much of anything. They started calling students by last name, and she bounced a bit. Waiting was so difficult! Finally, finally her name was called. A happy squeal escaped her throat, the girl practically running to the front. She plopped herself onto the stool and waited, a vibrant grin on her lips as the hat descended to decide her fate.
xxx𝓟𝒆𝓻𝓼𝓸𝓷𝓪𝓵𝓲𝓽𝔂xxx xxxxx⇾Lᴏʏᴀʟ: Nani is incredibly loyal to those she loves.

Leah Ruby League Unsorted First Year Eleven Year Old - Pureblood - Dancer
Younger Sister
Location : Great Hall
Leah had a rather content train ride with Arianell. Although the youngest League didn’t have anything on the top of her excitement list, she was generally interested in the school she was attending. Her siblings had all attended Hogwarts and their mother before that along with generations of Averys and Leagues. To walk the halls they did, that would be an experience. However, with new experiences came worry. Worry that things wouldn’t be the same when she went back home. Taking a deep breath, she pushed that worry aside as they made their way to the lake and then the boathouse.
Walking up to the great hall, Leah stood there with the rest of the first years. She was nervous. Why she wasn’t quite sure. Maybe to find out who she was most like in her family? That was the only explanation. Although that didn’t sound like much reason to worry. Taking yet another breath the girl waited until they were lead into and down the main aisle of the great hall.
Students second year and up all stared at the group of first years. Leah noticed them but she also noticed the night sky above. Curious thing the ceiling was. It put some ease to the moment. As her classmates’ names were called she waited until her name was heard throughout the room. “Leah League,” It was time… Arianell had already gone…
Taking yet another deep breath, Leah straightened up and walked up to the stool. She scanned the room as she sat down. Waiting for the hat to be placed on her head. ‘Where do I belong?’ She asked curiously. ‘Am I like my sister? My brother? Or am I like someone else?’ She didn’t know where she’d fit but she supposed she would soon find out.
Status :Worried... I'm okay... With :Other First Years
■ SKEPTICALSince losing both my parents I’ve never been able to sleep through the night. I’m always afraid I’ll wake up and everyone that matters will be gone. I find myself often wandering to my big brother's room or going to see Nori his and Leo's house elf to verify they are still there. Important people disappear from my life, first my mother than my father. I’ve gotten used to people leaving me. ■ MATUREI’m typically a happy person or at least I try to come off that way. I was raised polite and well-mannered. I always say please and thank you, and give the occasional curtsy. I don’t want to offend people so I try not to be rude. Though, I can be occasionally quick to answer but also methodical. At times I can be just as quick to add on to my answer after the fact to make my response sound nicer. ■ INTELLIGENT I’m fairly intelligent for my age. Not my brother’s level of intelligent but I do have my talents. I started using magic fairly early and everyone says I’m a very good ballet dancer. Cathy say’s I’m one of the prettiest dancers and being pretty is part of being talented. ■ PERFECTIONISTSince my father’s death I’ve become rather finicky about perfection and order. Probably more than most children might be. I’m always quick to pick up after myself and order my stuff just so. I like things to be neat and tidy. Since starting ballet I’ve been working hard to become the best in the class. And, to be the best I have to be perfect. ■ HARDWORKINGAs mentioned before I’m a hard worker. I work hard every day in ballet. So I can be a great dancer someday. I’m committed to do the best I can so I can be perfect. I want to prove not only to myself but others that I’m good at what I love to do. Between that and school I’d like to think I’m working hard to be good in both areas of my life. ■ STUBBORNI can be a tad stubborn sometimes. I’m not all the time but I can when I want something or don’t want something. Typically I’m used to getting things, though I don’t expect it. I don’t really ask for a lot of things. Some say I’m difficult because I can be contrary to what others want. When I was younger, if there was a choice between lemonade and fruit punch, I’d choice water. And if you suggested the lemonade, chances were I’d go for the fruit punch. I'm still like that today.

Rebecca Joanne Richardson Unsorted First Year Half Blood❤Magic Enthusiast
Location : The Great Hall
Rebecca was super excited. The moment they were escorted into the great hall she could barely contain herself. It was better then she’d imagined it. Even if she knew about magic, Hogwarts seemed so much cooler for a magical school. Having to wait for her name to be called, she knew Sher would be going before her. She was a tad jealous about that. Why did he get to go before her? However, Rebecca pushed that out of her mind. No sense getting jealous over something so small. Her time would come.
As it turned out bother Su-Jin and Sher went before her. Despite wishing she had a name that started closer to A she smiled at them both when their names were called. They were her first friends, she couldn’t ruin it now, not so soon. After what felt like forever her name was finally called. “Rebecca Richardson,”
Rebecca took a breath before walking straight up to the stool and taking a seat. She wasn’t nervous at all. Not like most of the first years. “I need to be in Slytherin…” She whispered under her breath. ‘Mother will have to approve of me then…’ She finished her thought. Rebecca desperately wanted her mother to see her as something more important then just the hired help. It tore her apart knowing that she didn’t have her mother’s attention. Rebecca would do anything to get it.
■ AMBITIOUSI may not be an adult but I have my own set of goals. My mother may think I’ll amount to nothing but I’ll show her. I want to be somebody, somebody with a successful career where no one will tell me what to do. I want to marry someone with high prospects, perhaps an heir of some family. I’m determined to prove my mother wrong and get everything I want. One day I’ll get everything I want and I’ll do anything to get it. ■ ENVIOUSThere’s no hiding the fact that I get jealous easily. My sister takes all of our mother’s attention, not that I blame her. I just don’t get how even with me being so much better at magic then her (she hasn’t even shown any signs of it yet) mother still won’t notice me. She treats me like the hired help… I’m not a house elf. So maybe I’m a little bitter about it. And, maybe I’m the type to hold a grudge but can you blame me? ■ STUBBORNYou can imagine I’m also quite set in my ways. I’m stubborn. Like I said, I’m the determined sort that wants what I want. Which means I’m not a push over, I’m willing to fight for what I want. I can be quite difficult to at times. I don’t like changing for people. I am who I am. If you don’t like me for me suit yourself. ■ COMPASSIONATEDespite my stubbornness and my jealous tendencies I’m a caring person. I’m sympathetic to other people’s problems. I’m not always about me. I like to be helpful. If I can be there for someone in need I want to be. If I can help I want to help. I’m not the overall best at showing I care but I do my best. My mother never really showed me affection but my father has. I’d like to think I get it from him. ■ SELF-RELIANTBecause of my mother I’ve become rather reliant on myself. I find you can only rely on yourself. Sure I have father but I don’t want to be a burden on him either. So, I’ve come to learn to take care of myself. Be self-sufficient and all that. I rather enjoy doing my own thing anyways. Not that I don’t enjoy the company of others, cause trust me I do. ■ UNPREJUDICEDNow just because my mother centers her life on blood statues and who has the most money doesn’t mean I do. I’m not that kind of person. Being told numerous times that I’m a waste of life and unimportant made me look at the world different. I don’t believe it matters if a person can do magic or not, or whether a person is muggleborn, pureblood, or born a half breed. And, who cares if you have more money than the next... live in a big fancy manor instead of a rundown farm house or a tiny flat above a shop. At the end of the day it doesn’t make any one person better than the other.
I’m also not one for stereotypes. For instances Slytherins can be good and other houses can have bad eggs. Not all houses are one thing. Like not all Ravenclaws are smart, not all Gryffindors are brave, not all Hufflepuff are loyal, and not all Slytherins are ambitions. Other houses can be those things too. We’re all a million different things. Can’t judge a book by the house there in or the place they come from.

Lucien wants to tell himself that he's not being nervous about this Sorting Ceremony, but in all honestly he's really nervous under layers of his calm demeanor. Bloody hell, his family doesn't even care where he will end up and yet there's this internal voice asking questions about which house he'll end up at. His face was cool, but he was gritting his teeth as he sat down the stool the moment Professor Harlowe put a hat on him. The element of surprise was making him struggle with keeping is composure, after all.

▶ CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC — Lucien is a optimist who pretty much works hard and hopes for the best results. He sees things in a practical way and does his thing to prepare for things when warned about. On the other hand, Lucien is quite considerate of the downsides and takes it as a caution sign to do something less dumb. He, after all, doesn't believe in dwelling and being stuck as a result.
▶ EXTROVERTED — Lucien is one of those calm, friendly, and affectionate extroverts, even though he does get occasionally awkward. Either way, Lucien likes to be with company and gets easily bored when being alone. Thankfully, his diplomatic skills had made socializing easier for him and the people around, but Lucien is observant enough about who he is dealing with.
▶ SELF-CONTROLLED — Lucien, with his calm demeanor, is capable of keeping his feelings and harsh opinions on check. The reason he did so was because Lucien believed that being careless and spontaneous will only get him to trouble at worst, so why risk when there were other ways? While this served him well and rarely cause chaos to start with, it made Lucien a bit secretive to what he really felt and resort to passive-aggressiveness. Then again, just because he has composure doesn't mean he's calm.
▶ DIPLOMAT — Lucien deals with things in a diplomatic way, meaning that he considers what people would think and planning how to deal with it. He gives himself some time to think, analyzing the things around him that it makes him a very perceptive yet time-consuming thinker. But, when he failed to do something, Lucien will get miffed then try to move on from it depending on the situation. On the other hand, give had given him some doubts to his choices, and other people's choices as well.
▶ MATURE — While he isn't above being a kid sometimes, Lucien took something his father didn't used to have in his younger years: being mature and responsible. Being raised to not be like his father in his younger years, Lucien is good at taking responsibility and knowing what he was doing. Impressively, he was walking a fine line between being a teenager and being mature, but this leaves him little patience to rowdy children and idiots.

Su-Jin was one of the early students to get called upon and being in front with a hundred people didn't help matters for him. All of this made him bite his lower lip to prevent his teeth from chattering and tried to keep his head down low to avoid any eye contact with strangers sans Professor Hawthorne. He sat down the stool and just muttered in Korean wishing that this will just end switfly, but it the end he can't really tell the hat what to do being sentient and all.On the other hand, if things were going his way, he would wish to be in a house where Sora can't go. Of course, he can't tell Gi that if he didn't want to get an earful from her but still...

▶ REBELLIOUS — Ever since their stepmother came to his life, Sujin as a child sees this as if their father was replacing their mother. That's why he refused to warm up on her stepmother and resented his father as a kid. He doesn't like people who tells him what he should and shouldn't do, especially when it was the people he didn't trust enough. This was done as an outlet of him being torn and upset over whatever was going on in their once-normal family, as well as being resentful at best.
▶ TOLERANT — Normally, Sujin is a mild and good-natured person- enough to help his friends in need but not the type to help strangers left and right. He doesn't mind helping people especially when it means that he could absorb new knowledge from the situation, too. But other than that, he wouldn't mind doing good things to people without expecting anything in return. Of course, he is only kind to the people who are kind to him, otherwise he would just straightly say no if he felt like it.
▶ PESSIMISTIC — As much as he insists that he's only 'realistic', Sujin is quite a pessimist in nature, which is probably rooted from some of his experiences with bullies and family problems. He isn't really the type to say that 'it could get better' or 'we'll get through this'- rather he would think of the cons of something abit more than the pros (To be fair, Sujin's pros was something that was possible to happen). He normally thinks that being an optimist is just something that's just going to upset him, that's why it's better if he just won't expect anything good at all. Su-Jin, if he could get away with it, would try to pop an optimist's bubble to "break their naivety." However, it should be noted that he can smile here and there, just that he wasn't sunshine and rainbows.
▶ INQUISITIVE — Very intelligent and curious at heart, he has a real tendency to ask so many questions for him to learn something new. His head might continue to bug him until something mysterious is revealed to him. He would always read books and even use the computer just so he could search for answers and new facts to know about. This results in him being a total researcher, enjoying investigating and scrutinizing any detail that comes to this path. And if he was content of the info he harvested, Sujin would keep the information to himself for future reference unless he's being asked to share it (which is conditional).
▶ HONEST — Sujin grew up to know that outright lying is wrong and will only break someone's trust, therefore he doesn't mind telling the truth. He also doesn't see the point of restraining or repressing himself even if it meant him ending up in trouble- because what matters is that he's honest and true. This pretty much made him tactless at times, and thus landing into trouble frequently. Though, normally, he always answers things in a short matter-of-fact manner that it made him come off as aloof.

DANIEL JAMES SHEPARD first year │ halfblood │ unsorted
This was weird. This was so goddamn weird. It wasn't fair that Desi and Zach knew what was going on because their mum worked here, and Elvira hadn't seemed too clueless either. Why did he have to be the one who didn't know what was happening? He fidgeted anxiously in line, waiting for the 'Shepard, Daniel' announcement, scrutinizing the talking hat thing everyone had to put on their head to be sorted from a distance. That was seriously messed up. It was going to read his mind? He'd rather not, thanks. But it was too late now to back out of the whole thing, so it didn't look like he had a choice. At least it only seemed to be saying the house, not whatever else it had seen in the kid's head. What was in his head was his business, not the rest of the school's. When his name was finally called, he went up with a slight scowl of unease, fighting back a series of squirms.
OOC: (personality under spoiler)
ENERGETIC xxx»» DJ is a bundle of energy in a wiry frame; he's always got something to say and somewhere to be, and it's nearly impossible for him to sit still, keep his head down, and shut up. He's not a very moody or withdrawn person, although he can be bitter and resentful at times, especially when he feels dismissed or ignored. In general he's always up for anything, such as going out to get Chinese food at two in the morning. (Be warned, he is a very obnoxious night owl).
IMPULSIVE xxx»» DJ is easily distracted and often operates on impulse; he may have been trying to read, but then a commercial came on the telly and ten minutes later he remembered he had originally been reading, but was too sucked into a sitcom to get up now. He typically doesn't think before he acts, which tends to result in his foot landing square in his mouth and people writing him off as immature and rude. He flits from thing to thing without even realizing it.
LONELY xxx»» At heart Dj is a very lonely person. He never had many friends growing up, and his parents often left him to his own devices, which meant a lot of being parked in front of a television or told to 'go play outside' by himself. This resulted in not making any close personal connections with anyone until he met his half-brother at the age of eleven, and so DJ is extremely clingy and possessive towards those he considers friends.
OUTGOING xxx»» Despite his somewhat lacking social skills, DJ is a very outgoing, sociable person, who enjoys the company of others most of the time. He hates being alone for long periods of time or cooped up at home, and would much rather be out with friends or doing something. Unfortunately he tends to come on a little strong, which can put people off, but he's intensely loyal and quick to befriend others, even if they're more introverted.
PHYSICAL xxx»» DJ is sort of a touchy person- he's always leaning on someone or knocking shoulders with someone or high-fiving or hugging or fist-bumping- it goes on and on. He's also very big into sports, although he'll admit he's not always the best team player, and would much rather be outside doing something active than just sitting around. He's also a fairly healthy person and enjoys getting his exercise... although it often involves bouncing off the walls.
RESENTFUL xxx»» DJ is usually very good at hiding it, but he does have a lot of resentment simmering deep down, particularly aimed at his parents and a lot of authority figures in general but also towards anyone who dismisses or ignores him. Growing up in a not very happy household, a lot of misdirected anger was aimed at him as the cause of all the problems, and he can be very sensitive when he feels like he's being blamed for anything because of this.
Well, don't you worry baby, don't worry 'Cause I'm right here at home 'Cause I'm a picker, I'm a grinner I'm a lover, and I'm a sinner I play my music in the sun I'm a joker, I'm a smoker, I'm a midnight toker I sure don't want to hurt no one

cadence bea gregory halfblood │ unsorted │ first year
Ugh, thank Merlin her surname was towards the start of the alphabet, because Cady couldn't freaking wait. It sucked that she and Elisabet probably wouldn't be in the same house, but hey, they'd still get to see each other in classes and stuff, and she was sure she'd make other friends as well. She'd never had any issues doing so before. She wished her da or siblings were here to see this- a few of the other kids seemed to have siblings at the house tables already- but she'd just have to write them tomorrow and tell them everything. Well, not everything, but like, most everything. When her surname was called she went up with a broad grin, looking very thrilled that it was finally her turn to be sorted.
OOC: (personality under spoiler)
CHEERFUL xxx»» Cady is an overwhelmingly positive person, almost to the point where you're not sure if she's doing it just to piss people off. Whatever the reason, she enjoys looking on the sunny side of life, and would much rather have fun and not worry too much about things than go through life expecting the worse or being suspicious of everyone she meets. Cady is rarely in a bad mood, and even when she is, it never lasts long, so when she is noticeably upset something is usually very wrong.
ADVENTUROUS xxx»» Cady is generally up for anything, whether it be trying a new food or going to a new place, meeting new people... She's not a very shy or cautious person and enjoys discovering new places and new people, and doesn't mind being the odd one out in a room. She finds taking risks fun and is rarely afraid of looking stupid or embarrassing herself. She finds the regular ho-hum mundane sort of life boring and is always on the lookout for something new and exciting.
COMPASSIONATE xxx»» Cady is at heart a very compassionate, caring person. She has a lot of empathy for others and is the type who starts tearing up at sad detergent commercials. She often feels obligated to help those around and is the sort of friend who's always willing to listen to other people's problems. She can't stand people who disregard the feelings of others and often expects other people to be just as big-hearted as herself.
DEFIANT xxx»» Cady may be a very positive, happy person, but she's also not someone who's willing to let other people walk over her or tell her what to do. She can be quite challenging of authority figures and is very stubborn at times, especially when she feels pressured by others. When confronted she tends to give as good as she gets, and is fond of bickering with both her family and friends. To her credit, she usually doesn't hold a grudge, and doesn't expect others to either.
EARNEST xxx»» Cady is a very open person who wears her heart on her sleeve. She's an okay fibber, and not so great when it comes to big lies, especially about how she feels. You could read her like a book from her facial expressions alone, and Cady is perfectly okay with that. She embraces the fact that she's honest to a fault and incapable of pulling off any major deceptions, and would much rather speak now and regret it later than never speak at all and regret it forever. This can be both very endearing and extremely irritating.
FICKLE xxx»» Cadence can be a very fickle person in terms of her preferences and interests. She regularly goes through obsessions with certain colors, musicians, and hobbies. She'll pick up photography, for example, and pursue it almost fanatically, only to drop it four months later. In general, the only thing constant about Cadence is her friend groups and her affection for her family members. Otherwise she's always flitting from one thing to another, somewhat dizzyingly.

.¸¸.•´´¯`•Laili rode in the boat with her new (hopeful) friends and followed the professor into the castle looking around at everything trying to take it all in at once. The closer they got to the actual sorting the more anxious she became. Would she go into Gryffindor like Drew and her godfather, or join her daddy and Dris in Ravenclaw? In all honesty she rather doubted she'd get Ravenclaw, those guys were like, super smart. She was just regular smart. However she didn't have time to keep thinking it out when her name was called. She didn't know whether to be thankful or curse the fact that her last name ended with an "A." Trying not to hold anyone up, she nervously but quickly walked over to the stool and sat upon it closing her eyes in reflex as the hat was placed on her head. "You don't tell people my thoughts right? Cuz I have a lot and only about half of them I wouldn't mind being broadcast but honestly I'd rather have none please Mr. or Ms. Hat." Laili whispered to the hat.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh Here we go! One, two, three... I'm ready for tomorrow Tomorrow starts today There ain't no map to follow But I'm with you all the way
■ TALKATIVELaili almost never stops talking once she's made friendly contact with someone or something. Unless they physically remove themselves from her location screaming in terror she will follow and talk to them about any and everything. ■ FRIENDLYThat said, she tries to be friends with any and everything she comes across; be it human or otherwise. This has ironically made some people or things find her annoying while others are usually amiable to her bubbly spirit. ■ ENERGETICLaili doesn't like to stay still doing nothing for very long, she always has to be doing something whether it be working, Quidditch or even piano lessons. Even watching her favorite shows or movies means something is usually jiggling or wiggling on her person. ■ TIRESOMEWith all her energy and talk, people around her accurately describe her as an "energy vampire" meaning that just being around her is enough to tire them out. She doesn't exactly see the problem with it until someone has fallen asleep listening to her Rogue One shipping rant. Again. ■ NURTURINGWhen not sucking the life out of people, metaphorically of course, she cares for people and animals immensely. She enjoys caring for them in different ways as well as being protective of them. Occasionally over protective. ■ PASSIONATELaili enjoys life to the fullest meaning she enjoys all that life as to offer her. Knowledge, friends, family, owls, she clings to them all emphatically.
