AN: This is going to be a bunch of crossovers with Harry Potter. It's going to be characters from different fandoms either getting sorted or facing their boggarts.
Disclaimer: If it's familiar I don't own it (even if I wish I did)
Enjoy!
(Fairy tail)
The sorting hat had finished sorting all the first years and was now looking apprehensively at the new "transfer students", the new guards. They had to be sorted too. The sorting hat was nervous, it had never sorted anyone over eleven years old.
Professor McGonagall glanced at her list and called out: "Dragneel, Natsu!"
A boy with pink hair and a huge smile on his face practically bounced up to the hat. He sat down and put the hat on his head rather forcefully.
The sorting hat felt awe at the things this boy had gone through and accomplished, there was no doubt where he belonged, the hat didn't even need to speak with the boy, so after a mere six seconds on the boys head the sorting hat called out: "GRYFFINDOR!"
The red and gold table cheered loudly as Natsu took of the hat and bounced over to them.
McGonagall called out the next name. "Fullbuster, Grey!"
The dark-haired boy without a shirt under his robes walked up calmly and put the hat on.
This boy had gone through just as much as the previous one but he was much harder to place. Hm, you're certainly brave, but not as reckless as your pink haired friend. Grey tensed but quickly got over it in favour of mentally snarling at the hat. 'Flame brain is not my friend'.
The sorting hat raised a mental eyebrow. Oh, but I can see that you think of him that way and he thinks the same of you. Grey seemed stunned. Well, it doesn't really matter, I'm here to sort you not to comment on who your friends are. Let's see, you really are brave but you can also be rather cunning when you choose to be. You're loyal but not the most loyal I've seen. You're not really book smart so Ravenclaw is out and I'm not placing you with Mr Dragneel so not Gryffindor either. How about Slytherin?
Grey shrugged. 'Whatever'.
Very well then, "SLYTHERIN!"
The Slytherin table gave a polite applause, or condescending depending on who you asked.
Next was: "Heartfilia, Lucy!"
The young woman was blond and was smiling politely, her poise was that of someone who had either grown up in a prestigious family or worked at a traditional Japanese inn. The sorting hat had seen both.
She lowered the hat gently and tried to sit still but it was obvious that she was uncomfortable. Relax, I'm not going to hurt you. Now let's see here … Oh, you've all been through some rough times haven't you? You're very brave but you always think before taking action … unless someone you love is in danger. You're quite loyal to those you consider family. Lucy had relaxed a bit and hers mile was less strained now. 'Thank you'.
You're welcome miss. Now I think you would do best in either Huffelpuff or Ravenclaw, any preferences?
Lucy thought about it. 'Not really, but I like blue better than yellow, so maybe Ravenclaw?'
The sorting hat chuckled before announcing out loud: "RAVENCLAW!"
The Ravenclaw table gave a polite applause (no matter who you asked).
"Lockser, Juvia!"
Oh, what do we have here? The sorting hat was slightly intimidated by this young woman. He would just have to make sure to never hurt her "Grey-sama". You're very loyal to Mr Fullbuster but you do not belong in Huffelpuff. I think there's really only one house for you with your ambition, you're rather cunning too.
The sorting hat felt her mind light up. 'You mean you're going to put me with Grey-sama?!'
Indeed, "SLYTHERIN!"
Juvia skipped over to the Slytherin table with hearts in her eyes and sat down beside Grey who she looked at lovingly. The sorting hat gave a mental sigh of exasperation, it felt kind of sorry for Mr Fullbuster.
"Marvell, Wendy!"
The sorting hat regarded the clearly nervous petite girl as she took a hesitant step forward before glancing to Natsu at the Gryffindor table who gave her an encouraging smile. She seemed to steel herself before walking up to the hat as fast as she could without running, not giving herself time to change her mind.
'Hello, Mr Hat?'
Hello Miss Marvell. Well, you're quite the polite one aren't you, I know just where to put you. You're very brave but your magic is more geared towards support and you're very loyal. The sorting hat gave a mental smile. Good luck, "HUFFELPUFF!"
Wendy took of the hat and jogged over to the black and yellow table where she was greeted by exited questions from several curious people, mostly second and third years which she tried her best to answer while stuttering.
"McGarden, Levy!"
Well, there's no doubt about where you should go, "Ravenclaw!"
Levy sat down beside Lucy who gave her a hug.
It had finally come to the last person to be sorted and the sorting hat was just glad he didn't have to sort new teachers as well because the new professor of physical self-defence and alternative magic was terrifying. Yes, the sorting hat was definitely glad he didn't have to sort Erza Scarlet.
"Strauss, Lisanna!"
The girl with the short snow white hair seemed to be on the cheery side as she skipped up to the hat excitedly.
Oh, Brave and loyal are certainly common traits among your guild it seems. Let's see … hm, you're smart, loyal and brave, not so ambitious though so not Slytherin. You seem to harbour some affection for Mr Dragneel. Lisanna blushed bright red. How about I'll let you choose between Huffelpuff, Ravenclaw and Gryffindor?
Lisanna thought for a while before making up her mind. 'Huffelpuff'.
The sorting hat was surprised. Are you sure? I thought you'd want to be in Gryffindor with Mr Dragneel.
'Natsu can manage without me and it's not like I'll never see him, I think Wendy needs someone she knows in her house'
I see, you are very kind, "HUFFELPUFF!"
As professor McGonagall carried it away, the sorting hat congratulated itself on a job well done and wished the guards good luck.
