Sorting Hat
As we all know, the Sorting Hat is a enchanted hat that sorts you into the correct house that matches your personallity. There is this thing that the sorting hat may go through every now and again, this is called a Hatstall. A hatstool is when you can fit into more than one house, this happens on rare occasions and the hat will put your intrests first if he does not know where to put you. The most known Hatstools are Hermione, Harry and Neville.
The Hat as we know placed Harry in Gryffindor because Harry did not want to be in Slytherin, when it came to Hermione the Hat had to think hard as whether to put her in Gryffindor or Ravenclaw. Neville on the other hand was very different, the Hat was arguing with Neville because Neville did not want to go to Gryffindor because of it's Bravery and begged the Hat for Hufflepuff but, well as you can tell, he didn't listen.
So, the Hat only listens to you, if he needs to and may even place you in the house you do not want to go in, no matter how much you argue with him. If you were placed in Hufflepuff admire them for their loyalty and determination. If you were placed in Ravenclaw admire them for their intelligence and Witness. If you are placed in Gryffindor Pixie admire them for their bravery and chivalry. If you are placed in Slytherin admire them for their ambition and cunningness.
