#but I'm scared all those years wanting to die will backfire at me because of all these bad thoughts

You know I need to know your view on this important issue: which Hogwarts houses would you sort these Grey's characters into?! Meredith, Lexie (I often see her sorted as Hufflepuff but to me she's a total Ravenclaw!), Cristina, April, Callie, Jo, Arizona, Izzie, Maggie, Amelia, Alex, Derek, Mark, Jackson, George, and any other GA character you might want to sort :) I'm sending this to a couple of people, and you should feel free to as well!
Ok so first thank you so much for your excellent asks! Secondly, I feel like I must define what the sorting hat does: It looks not only at what you are, but also at what you value! Hence why Hermione is a Gryffindor! Lets get on to it:
(it got ridiculously long omg so here’s a read more)
Meredith: Gryffindor. I’m not 100% sold on it, but I think it’s what makes more sense. Notice that most of her monologues in the introduction and the end of episodes are basically pep talks to be braver, bolder, more daring. She values fighting and fighters (all her talks to Jo prove that), and thinks “that knowing is better than wondering, that waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying.“. I feel like Hufflepuff is a strong contestant, for “the most loyal person” Amelia knows, who latches on to people and ideas and will go down swinging for them, but if we value the duality being-valuing, Gryffindor comes out winning. Plus, her undeniable recklessness (although I’ll die on the hill her thing is less “don’t care about consequences’’ and moe “I’ll do it regardless of the consequences scaring me because I think it’s worth it”) and bullheadedness are extra compelling for the Lions.
Lexie: If I’m being quite honest, I don’t have a formed opinion on her. I don’t think we know enough about Lexie, for all the love dished out her way. She existed in relation to her relationships with others, which is sad because she had potential. One thing that bugs me is that people think her “photographic memory” means she’s super smart (which is not to say she isn’t, but those two things are not synonyms) and thus, a Ravenclaw by default (not saying this is your case but it bugs me). I feel like Hufflepuff is a good choice for the “sweet cinnamon roll, too good for this world, too pure” archetype she has going on, but something about the way she’s “flighty” on her relationship with Mark makes me take a step back. Although with more careful consideration, it does fit. The way she chased Meredith for so long without giving up, George, even in her deathbed, using up her energy to try and be found, and when she knew there was no way, making sure the two people she loved the most (Mark and Meredith) knew she loved them.
Cristina: Slytherin. She’s a pretty good definition of what the house stands for. Ambition? Do I even need to start? “Or perhaps in Slytherin,You'll make your real friends, these cunning folks use any means to achieve their ends.” Notice how she gravitated towards Meredith, the most “ruthless” and “ambitious” out of their intern year group (besides Cristina herself ofc). On the flip-side, I feel like it might be adorable to put her in Hufflepuff (she was the most hard-working, after all) but I don’t think an 11 year old Cristina would accept being lumped in with “the loser house” (not that it is, but some people think it is).
April: Hufflepuff.She’s determined and a hardworker, she sticks by what she believes in, she’s incredibly loyal. A puff!
Callie: Gryffindor. I feel like it fits so well with her motiff.
Jo: Slytherin. Baby gurl had a goal in mind to get herself out of the bad life she had, and she did. Plus, self-preservation tot he point it backfires.
Arizona: Gryffindor. her whole “good man in a storm” theme, the conversation surrounding George going to war, everything about Arizona is finding courage and bravery to go on.
Izzie: Huffepuff. She’s loyal, she’s hadworking, it’s a good fit.
Maggie: Ravenclaw. She’s smart, and she values smarts. The whole math contest with the little girl who was a genius? Her whole relationship with Jackson? Her (aparent) arc of being in love with surgery? Classic Ravenclaw.
Amy: Definetly Gryffindor. She and Mer share a lot of characteristics about this. I almost said Ravenclaw, but I remembered her speech about how life will find an out and that recklessness is her whole character definition and I was sold. Poor Maggie stuck between her two Gryffindor sisters!
Alex: Ravenclaw. He’s very creative and a problem solver, but also “lazy”/”accommodated” in a way that I associate with not being sufficiently stimulated creatively (see that that disappears when put in a stress situation, like with Pac North, or having to come up with something for a patient). He values inventive, innovative and “out-of-the-box thinkers” a lot. Also that little flash of his childhood with his mom about wanting to see how a doorknob worked and not resting until he put it back together. That’s very Alex. He’d be that Ravenclaw kid that’d give the door the most ridiculous answers with the most “fuck off” tone and get in.
Derek: That one’s a challange because, as I have said, Derek doesn’t interest me. Eps and scenes about him made me bored, so I won’t claim to have is a deep understanding of his character. I know he values Meredith’s strength and determination, I know he worked hard to solve problems and took on impossible cases, so I feel he could go either way. I’m gonna say Slytherin because the impossible case thing seems like a desire to prove himself in a way, plus he is indeed very cunning and uses whatever means he has to to achieve his goals.
Mark: I kinda wanna say Hufflepuff (which is a bit ironic for a known cheater). His sticking by with Derek, the way he held onto Addison, then Lexie, the way he was so focused on being a good parent in all the times he was put in that situation, I feel it’s fitting.
Jackson: He says he’s a Gryffindor and tbh I feel it fits so off we go.
George: Gryffindor. He’s brave, no doubt, and he values bravery a lot (the whole “be a doer” thing). He’s a good version of Peter Pettigrew if we are sticking with the Harry Potter worldview.
Thanks for the question, again!

do this on my own Janis: We've never been together Janis: you'd pick them every time Janis: you'd help her plan her bullshit wedding that's about nothing but showing off how much she gives a fuck

kool-aid and telling me how good it tastes Grace: Rio's trying to help me, she's the only one who is Janis: yeah her saviour complex done everyone real well Janis: Junior's life isn't fucked at all because she had to live it for him Grace: I'm just saying I'm not gonna walk away from her cos Edie would want me to Grace: Junior's life is fucked cos he has shit taste in men & goes along with what everyone else wants Janis: This family loved to surround itself with dead girls it was trying to help Janis: and you're happy to be one of 'em Janis: don't pretend you want other options Grace: I don't wanna die Janis: 🤞 she has a baby for you that she won't give you then Janis: you're never gonna be the one 'helping' Janis: you aren't her or mum Janis: that is your role if you don't get out the fucking show, Grace Grace: we've established I'm not helpful, babes Janis: we've established you aren't a person Janis: even this, you can't be real Janis: what the fuck will it take Grace: you don't want real from me Grace: you literally never have Janis: you've never offered Janis: and I ain't waiting around for you Grace: Every time I try & talk to you, you shut me down Grace: you obvs aren't waiting for anything from me Janis: When have you ever tried to talk about something that matters Janis: I'm not talking to you about hair when people are fucking dying Grace: when have you ever let me Grace: you're a bitch way before then Janis: why would I be nice to that Janis: You don't like me, I'm not begging you either Grace: nothing that matters to me matters to you Janis: the colour of your fucking lip doesn't matter period Grace: that isn't real Janis: You've never been real Janis: you don't give me a fucking chance Grace: I can't be real with you cos you just make fun of everything that I say or feel or do Janis: and you and your friend don't Janis: nah, everything I do hasn't been fucking wrong to you since before we got our periods Grace: I've never backed her up on anything she said Grace: I don't call you stupid or ugly or any of the shit you call me Janis: you just call be a bitch and annoying and weird Janis: so if all of that's fake, everything you roll your eyes at because I just don't get it, just admit, you don't want to be real with me Janis: never fucking have, pretending it's 'cos I don't wear heels has always been an excuse Grace: You are a bitch and I do find you annoying and weird Grace: & you don't get me or any of the things that are hard for me cos they aren't for you Janis: that makes it alright then, you can say whatever you like to me because you perceieve yourself as life's victim and it's all fine for me Grace: we have different problems Grace: I'm not saying your life is perfect, I'm not that stupid Janis: just better than yours so why should you even try to be nice Janis: landed you with a great crowd, that Grace: you think you're better than me Grace: you literally always have Janis: no, you think I'm better than you Janis: and I didn't tear myself down so you could use me to build yourself up Janis: you aren't her and I'm not you Janis: why do you think you fell into that kind of relationship Grace: you are better than me & it makes it really hard to be around you, okay Janis: thanks Grace: it's not like any of this is how I want it Janis: how can you sit here and expect sympathy Janis: when I'm the one who's left with no one Janis: you can deal with the shit and have friends and have them, I can't do that Grace: you think I'm dealing? LOL Janis: deal with theirs Janis: and they'll love you for it Janis: none of them are gonna call you a doormat, just me Janis: 'cos they need a yes man Grace: well maybe I wouldn't be here if they did call me out ever Grace: at least you tell me the truth Janis: well maybe it gets exhausting being the only one telling the truth Janis: do you think she liked having to have every conversation be a confrontation Janis: do you think I Grace: it's exhausting being fake too if you were thinking about swapping Janis: like I said, you've got plenty of company Janis: they all are Grace: Yeah but I'm the only one getting told to see a therapist Grace: like I'd know where to start Janis: told you Janis: love a dead girl Janis: breeding and 'fixing' people when they've got no business is this family's shared hobby Janis: reason they ain't try to section me, section her Janis: take your shoelaces, where's the fun in actually doing something Janis: say you will, fucking say you have, did Janis: but never actually do Grace: they couldn't section you, you're not mental Grace: her either Janis: give her a case when I say I'll top myself if she goes ahead with this wedding, won't I Grace: No Grace: if being angry was all it takes half this fam would be gone Grace: & the wedding wouldn't happen cos he's the worst for it Janis: they should be, that's the fucking problem Janis: seperate cells, all of 'em Janis: and yeah, he's a cunt Grace: You don't have long if you really wanna stop it Janis: yeah? Grace: they are rushing but obvs won't tell me why Grace: maybe they think people will try and stop them idk Janis: Brazil one probably wasn't even legal Janis: why should I care about their kids really Janis: why should I try and help any of them Grace: they're just babies, they didn't ask for any of this Janis: maybe not but maybe those two deserve for those kids to grow and turn 'round and tell them how much they hate them for doing this Janis: fuck it, I can't think straight Janis: maybe that's enough, maybe I just won't go, I'll be gone Grace: you'll come back though, right? Janis: can't think about that Janis: I should be happy right now Janis: but no Janis: can't Grace: you can be happy Janis: how can I Janis: it never stops it never goes away Grace: idk just worry about yourself like you always say to me Grace: forget about them Janis: can't do that when you're here Grace: forget about me Janis: no I mean Janis: I can't be here, I can't be anywhere near any of you and be happy Janis: and one reason to stay doesn't outweight all the reasons to go Grace: you're saying you're gonna leave him, aren't you Janis: this isn't fair on him Grace: it wouldn't be fair to do that Grace: on you either Janis: I know that, all he needs is someone who can stay Janis: I can't do it Grace: he loves you so he needs you Grace: you love him Janis: yes Grace: he'd go with you if you asked him Janis: the kids can't come Grace: why do they need to? he's got a dad, right? Janis: no Janis: they need him Janis: and he needs them Grace: oh Janis: it's not easy Janis: even if it feels easier than staying Janis: it's still so fucking hard Grace: I love you & if you only listen to one thing I ever say then Grace: you're really gonna regret it if you fuck things up with him Janis: I know Janis: but I should have never have let him in Grace: but you have now Grace: not to be that it's too late bitch again Grace: but like Janis: bad things happened to him too Janis: happen Grace: so don't hurt him Janis: that's all I ever do Grace: no Grace: that's faker than anything I've ever Grace: shut up Janis: I don't want to Janis: she didn't either, I don't think Janis: it's just Janis: seems like the only way to end it all, all the suffering Grace: nobody wants to, I don't think even Mia wants that, way deep down Janis: you can't end other people's, only your own Janis: but causing it means you're having some effect, right Grace: she had so much love in her, that's how she could do it, hurt people that deep Grace: so do you Grace: but you don't have to be like her Janis: I don't know what the alternative is Janis: like I said, it feels like someone HAS to be saying these things Grace: I think it's this Grace: trying Grace: being honest means being honest about like everything Janis: it's hard to do both Janis: that's the problem Janis: how can you tell Rio she's a hypocritical bitch that has ultimately put herself first and tell her she still held it down all those times we needed her to Grace: I know, babes, trust Grace: cos they can both be true Grace: I hate you & I love you Grace: nothing's just a or just b Janis: I guess the thing is, they get the rest from everyone else Janis: like you said Janis: you wouldn't be here if I didn't tell you the bad shit Janis: no one would Grace: you can still be the call out queen Grace: if he's the only person who sees the real you, maybe that's okay Grace: maybe its like that anyway Janis: it feels wrong Janis: we didn't always hate each other Janis: all of us Grace: I didn't always hate myself Grace: it's just Grace: things happen Janis: too many things have Janis: that shouldn't have Grace: Yeah exactly so don't make yourself unhappy Grace: there's been so much of it Janis: she died for nothing Janis: if more and more keeps happening Janis: just makes it more true Grace: she died for nothing anyway Grace: she was 16 Janis: and if I act like it, it's a problem Janis: but Rio gets to openly ruin more kids and we're meant to be happy Janis: I refuse, I won't do it Grace: she's just trying to be happy Grace: like you want to be Janis: no Janis: you don't get to try at the expense of a helpless fucking kid Janis: that you made Janis: that's not how it works, this is what I'm saying Janis: we aren't doing this again and pretending that that's alright Grace: I'm not saying don't tell her what you think Janis: how could she Janis: twice Grace: I don't know Grace: I don't know how she could fall in love with him or any of it Janis: it's not love Grace: she thinks it is, & she let it happen Grace: I don't understand that Janis: she's selfish or it's trauma-bonding Janis: she can have either Janis: but she won't admit it regardless Grace: of course she won't Grace: so just let it go Janis: no Janis: there's consequences to the shit you do Grace: they're her consequences to deal with Janis: and one of them is that I hate her and I'm not going to let her forget that Edie died hating her too Janis: it's not enough to yet again put it on some kids Janis: say hey, wait to see how bad the bullying gets and the doubt and all of it Janis: then turn around and say why the fuck did you two do this Janis: they hurt people Janis: and they still are Janis: they should care Grace: I think they do Grace: but idk if that's enough or not Grace: or what'll happen to those babies or any of us Janis: it isn't enough Janis: they aren't Grace: what I know is if you keep hating like Edie did it'll hurt you like it hurt her Grace: you have to stop Janis: we should be hurting Janis: she shouldn't be happy Janis: none of us should Grace: we are Grace: that doesn't mean you have to ruin everything for yourself Grace: that you can't ever be happy Janis: I'm not ruining anything Janis: it's ruined Janis: nothing has changed Janis: so no, we shouldn't be happy Grace: Edie literally wanted you to be Grace: & we were 12 so much has changed Janis: like what Grace: like you letting someone in Grace: being happy even if you think you shouldn't Grace: we're
