Holy crow, sumi, that's one deeply creepy article. And before I read it, I could have sworn on a stack of the sacred books of every culture on the planet that I'd inhaled every single horse book ever written, but I'd never ever heard about any of this.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I could see Mal as Slytherin, maybe? But not Zoe. I'm always really bad at placing people in Hogwarts Houses. Kaylee would be Hufflepuff, yeah? And Simon Ravenclaw. That's for sure.
I feel like The Doctor could sort of be all the houses, but I'd go for Ravenclaw over Hufflepuff. Tearing down evil empires with intellect is definitely Ravenclaw.
And sumi, that article is super creepy. I.. I had no idea a horse ever could or would do that.

Each of the Doctor's regenerations could be in a different house, perhaps.

Now I need to click on the homicidal horses link.

You don't NEED to, you know.

Perhaps. The current Doctor is a lot more Hufflepuff than his immediate predecessors, anyway. I've only seen Doctors 9 through 11, so I don't have the whole set to compare with, but you're probably right. Even though they are always the same person, the personalities do differ.

Suddenly, BOOM, it's fall. It's crisp and actually chilly out there, and it smells like someone lit a fire. Supposed to go into the 40s tonight, which is so weird.
Sounds like how Boston is right now. So nice. My favorite kind of weather, at least for an extended period.
I'll add a "YAY!" for Perkins as well.

I think both Tams would be Ravenclaw. Jayne would want to be in Slytherin, but he'd turn out to be a squib. I suspect Book would have been in Slytherin at some point before he became a Shepherd.

I am on chapter 12 of the World's Longest Harry Potter Fanfiction, which is nice. I never read fanfic, really, but someone linked me this one and it's absolutely fabulous. I don't think I'll get to the end today and that makes me sad.
Well, you could bookmark it for later, I guess. And what story is it? There are, after all, LOTS of ridiculously long HP stories out there.

As for the Doctors, I think both 5 and 10 would be Griffyndor. Maybe 9 as well.
