Hm. Severus Snape, interesting mind.

I'm a Prince.

Are you, now? So I suppose it'll be GRYFF—

No!

You sure? I can see your mother's already outfitted you in red and gold…

That's not what I want. I don't want to be like her.

What do you want?

I… I don't know.

Then how do you know that you don't want Gryffindor?

You're the one who can see into people's heads. Why don't you tell me?

I can't tell you what you want, young Severus. But I do know the best place for you to find it is in SLYTHERIN!
