A/N Sorry for the randomness in this chapter. It kinda got away from me. I can see Lily being the fiery type, though. :D Also, please vote in the poll on my profile about who you want Sorted next.

Lily Evans

"Evans, Lily!"

A tall, freckled, green eyed redheaded girl made her way up to the stool, where she sat with her hands folded, looking extraordinarily calm and composed. The Hat was plunked on her head, and—

Oh. Dear. Lord. I really do not think I have ever been more nervous in my natural life.

The Hat was amused. Muggleborn, I am going to presume.

Right. Oh, I don't know where I want to go! Sev said—

Sev?

Severus Snape, my best friend, he said that Slytherin is the way to go. But I've been reading up, and Slytherin has a horrible reputation—they think that Muggleborns are magic thieves and unworthy. And they're all supposed to be horrible and cruel and racist. But Severus's mother, Eileen Prince, she was in Slytherin, and so has like forty generations of Princes before her, and Severus wants to be in it, but he said it doesn't make difference to him for being Muggle-born. So what's up with that?

Ah, calm down...

And then there's Gryffindor. That really sounds good but Sev said that Gryffindors are stupid idiots! And, ugh, James Potter wants to be in Gryffindor. Oh, God, I hate him..

I really do think it would be good for you to calm do—

And the other two houses are Hufflepuff, and I don't want to go there, and Ravenclaw, nor there. And ugh, I HATE JAMES POTTER!

...You are smitten with him.

I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH JAMES POTTER! I HATE HIM!

You met him for all of thirty minutes, now.

HE WAS BEING HORRIBLE TO SEVERUS!

Despite, you admire the way you saw him stick up for the pale boy who was being bullied.

I DON'T CARE! HE WAS ACTING LIKE SUCH A HORRIBLE IDIOT! ALL "OH I AM SO AWESOME" AND "SNIVELLUS" AND OH I. HATE. HIM.

..Smitten.

WHEN DID THIS TURN INTO A CONVERSATION ABOUT MY LOVE LIFE? UGH, JUST SORT ME.

It is remarkably fun to get you annoyed.

YOU'RE A HAT!
Yes, yes I am.

YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO HAVE A PERSONALITY!

It's a shame I do, then.

YES IT IS!

We have gotten far off track. However, through our admittedly entertaining arguments, I see how you stand up so strongly for what you believe in, which really deems you worthy of

"GRYFFINDOR!"
