Hehehe...I miss the more whimsical threads we could have before DH.

Onto the question at hand: I still want to be in Slytherin.  I'd much
rather hang out with the Slytherins of the Marauder Era.  I think
that, throughout the series, these Slytherins have been shown to be
the more complicated ones.  Severus has his love of Lily (which I
still think is lame *eg*); Regulus defected from the Death Eaters and
took the locket out of the cave -- makes me wish Sirius was nicer to
Kreacher...maybe we could've got that info earlier...  Those
Slytherins seem to have complicated lives while the Slytherins of
Harry's time are more one dimensional.  Draco is the only one who
isn't completely static throughout the series and that is due to
events beyond his control.

I thought the Marauders were cool when I first read about them.  I
imagine they're the group I would've secretly wanted to join while
hating them to the outside world.  After finishing the series, I
wouldn't want to have anything to do with the Marauders in real
(fantasy) life...except maybe for Remus.
