HP Crossovers

Part 1 - Sherlock [BBC]

Harry Potter and Sherlock don't really have anything in common, right? THINK AGAIN! Harry and Sherlock are both.. err.. British.

So, what Harry Potter/Sherlock things are there? You have, of course, the crossover fanfictions, which are absolutely amazing! Really, go and read some. There are about 280 stories, varying from John and Sherlock being Hogwarts students to Moriarty working together with the Death Eaters! The majority of these stories is Johnlock (the John/Sherlock ship name), and yum, what's not to love? The link with all the stories is at the bottom of this article.

Then there's the fanart. Thank you Tumblr! The Sherlock characters are sorted into different Hogwarts houses, let's see if we agree.

I adore this pic, it's just.. perfection. Moriarty is in Slytherin, you'll just have to agree, sorry. John is in Gryffindor, and Gryffindor being the house of the brave and those with lots of courage. It's a good choice. Then Sherlock as a Ravenclaw. Ravenclaw's traits are wisdom, intelligence, originality and individuality. So, I can see why Sherlock is a Ravenclaw. And Molly, probably the sweetest girl on the planet as a Hufflepuff. The house of dedication, hard work, patience, tolerance and kindness. Hufflepuff is an understandable choice. And last but not least, Irene Adler, as a Slytherin: self-preservation, cunning, ambition and intelligence. Yup. That's a fit.

I told you there'd be Johnlock

Let's take another one to compare. Aww, look at John and Sherlock. Aren't they cute?
John's a Hufflepuff here, which is quite likely as well. John's very loyal, a hard worker and extremely dedicated to his work, friends, etc. And our consulting detective is a Snake.. Which is understandable, since he is very intelligent, quite cunning and also very resourceful.

So, everyone has their own opinion as to where people should be sorted but here's mine:
Sherlock: .. hmm, Ravenclaw. But my opinion changes extremely often when it comes to him.
John: Hufflepuff. I think. Sometimes also Gryffindor.
Moriarty: Slytherin.
Irene: Slytherin.
Molly: Hufflepuff, although I do think she has Gryffindor qualities.
Anderson: Muggle.

And what do you think? In which house do the Sherlock characters belong and why?


And here's the link, enjoy!
