Ok so. my friend and i were rewatching the harry potter series. we were talking about how Harry should’ve been in slytherin and we made an entire concept for how we would write harry potter. i felt it was simply too good not to share. it’s literally just a bunch of somewhat connecting bullet points, but i might actually write it down in the future.
this came to be after we watched the second one, (mind you i’m an english major and my roommate is an Art history major) and talked about how we personally don’t like that one, and so much could’ve been improved with the chamber of secrets plot in general if harry had been in slytherin. The bullet points start with the first movie.
HARRY POTTER(AKA SLITHERIPOTTER)
Part 1: Childhood/ Hagrid
- vernon and petunia more neglectful, no room “if you don’t bother us we don’t bother you” deal
- when harry was a baby and would cry the fuses would go out
- at age 8, harry gets left at school, walks dejectedly to bus stop. Gets on bus has no money bus driver angry random stranger(LUPINN) pays for ticket.
- harry sits and looks for man to thank him (lupin was behind) doesn’t know where he went
- aunt and uncle afraid of harry. (aunt worse)
- aunt and uncle treat him better in public to be seen normal
- dudley intentionally getting harry in trouble, mommy complex. notices mom is nicer to him when she gets mad at harry.
-Aunt is an alcoholic, afraid of her nephew. aunt feels melancholy for her sister.
- harry shows symptoms of ADD(Attention deficit disorder) and GAD(Generalized anxiety disorder)
-Dudley’s birthday at zoo still happens. harry still talks to snake there. afterward harry locked in room.
- Dudley first sees harry’s letter, and reveals to parents. Excess of letters happens, Harry locked out of house in retribution.
HAGRID’S ENTRANCE:
- harry walks to park, hears motorcycle, flips tf out bc yknow, it’s flying.
- hagrid finds harry+ introduces him to the wizard world
-Gringotts still happens
-harry and hagrid go to train together. Hagrid and harry wave.
PART2 :THE TRAIN AND SORTING
- ron and harry bump heads, (harry leaving his lil compartment to find bathroom, ron looking for a seat) ron realizes harry’s identity when seeing his scar.
- harry happy to make a one friend, but confused as to how ron knew who he was
- ron explains legend vaguely
-Trolly shenanigans ensue
-Hermione sees trolly shenanigans(both of their faces are chovered in chocolate) and is disgusted , talks how her parents are dentists.
- hermione sees scar freaks out
-harry and ron slightly dislike hermione
- forces herself into it, hermione keeps asking weird questions, harry confused, hermione leaves
- “i’m so excited for sorting i want gryffindor” - ron
- harry confused. sorting mentioned but not much
- harry still doesn’t know his hair is messed up, notices draco looking at him. looks at him then looks away bc mcgonagall is there.
- as they’re going up the stairs, Ron explains houses. Loves Gryffindor, slytherin worst of worst(evil if you go to syntherin.) hufflepuff kind, ravenclaw smart
SORTING:
- Mcgonagall sorting people, draco making his way through the crowd for harry with crabbe and goyle following. Harry sees.
-when harry walks in the great hall, he feels eyes on him. it’s snape.
- Ron gets called, taps harry”I’ll see you later” energy
-Ron in hufflepuff, confused, can’t make eye contact with harry.
- ron looks over to brothers in gryffindor, (all near eachother) they’re disappointed
-harry really confused
-hermione sorted ravenclaw
-harry gets distracted as he tries to figure out the houses from who he’s seen her sorted into them. Draco gets called up, bumps harry, looks back at harry + eye contact.
- harry called, sorted into syntherin, Malfoy smirks and gestures next to him. Harry is panicking bc of what ron told him earlier

hello ! can you do the other half of the hp au (Hufflepuff!Lando but with scary Slytherin!Gf privileges)? thank you love your writing
Goddamn I love harry potter au
"Jesus Christ Lando, have you done one bit of homework this year?" Asked Daniel as he and Lando walked through the halls of Hogwarts, heading to their next class. Lando had at least two detentions that night, all because he hadn't handed in his homework.
Lando rolled his eyes. "It's fine," he said. "Professor Vettel loves me."
"Not enough to not give you detention," Daniel said as they made their way to Potions with Professor Alonso. It was the one class they shared with Slytherins.
As soon as they got into the classroom, Lando couldn't stop himself from looking around. There was a sea of green ties, but none of them belonged to her. He sat in his usual seat, hers free beside him.
Except it wasn't free for very long. A Hufflepuff girl, one Lando didn't know the name of (even though she was from his house) slipped into the seat beside him. "Hi," she said, following it up with a giggle as she tapped her quill against her check.
"Hi," Lando replied. His nose was scrunched up at her, clearly unimpressed. "Can you..."
But he didn't get to say anything more to her. A hand was suddenly laid on her shoulder. "Get up," somebody said quickly. The Hufflepuff girl turned around, her face going pale. She quickly stood up and walked away, finding another seat.
Lando's girlfriend, his scary, Slytherin girlfriend, took her seat beside him. "Hi," she said wearing a sweet smile.
"Hi," Lando replied, perking up from his interaction with the Hufflepuff girl. "I was wondering when you were gonna get here."
"I tried to be quick, but Max's dad sent him a howler and he was having a breakdown," she said and brandished her quill, ready to take notes.
Lando wrapped his arm around her and pulled her into him. "Well, I'm glad you're here now."
"What, so I can scare off all the girls that come flirt with you?"
"Oh definitely."
