A/N: I love drabbles. I forgot how much. Someone asked for Lily too. I'm too lazy to go check. Sorry it took forever.

What the Hat Told You

Evans, Lily

By Seereth

Lily has no idea what to expect when she puts the hat on. The Hat.

Good evening, she tries.

Somehow, it manages a laugh. Well, all right, Miss Evans. Let's see where you belong. It pauses. Muggle-born? You'd die in Slytherin. Ravenclaw wouldn't really suit you either.

Oh, says Lily.

I'm more concerned with the people there. So. It's Hufflepuff or Gryffindor, my dear.

I don't – Lily stops. Thinks. Gryffindor is bravery? she asks. And Hufflepuff persistence?

Dedication, says the Hat. Determination. You have those traits already. I think you will need bravery, though.

Okay, agrees Lily.

GRYFFINDOR!
