Gryffindor, then. Boy, am I glad to have you people to ask!

And there might be room to slip a slasher into the Gryffindor girls?

And wasn't the Patil girl's twin sister in a different house?

(Which is interesting - - because it seems like otherwise siblings are in the same house.)

Yes, the twin is in Ravenclaw.

Am-Chau, I'd really, really recommend reading the HP books before attempting fic.

I'd really, really recommend reading the HP books before attempting fic.

I'm sure. And actually, I've read the first three, maybe even four. But I read them rather quickly, because I didn't like them much, and I wasn't on the look out for slash possiblities. And now, I've forgotten most of them, but have convinced myself that HP is the fandom that's best, because of my two slashers to put in, that's the only one they're both in. Which is not a way to go about producing the best slash. I'm going to give up fairly soon and write Buffyverse or Star Wars if HP really doesn't work.

I feel I should give it a try, that's all.

Here is an interesting idea, that occurred to me.

Is there a difference between HP movief fanfic and HP book fanfic?

It's a good question: how different are the canons? I've seen the movie more recently- but when I've got to write futurefic, not really that big a help. I suppose if I call it movie canon, any mistakes I make out of ignorance can be put down to the....

I should try and find a way to bring Harry and Snape to Sunnydale, and slash them there, shouldn't I?

Is there a difference between HP movief fanfic and HP book fanfic?

I don't think so, not really. The difference might be seen in visualizations of the characters. Rickman is older than Snape is, canonically.

In fact, if anything, the movies fail from being too slavishly faithful to the books.

I've read that the movies were as literal adaptations of the books as possible because the producers felt that was what kids wanted.
