They were both Slytherins. I at first thought that is the last house I would want to be in but reading up on that house I see that Slytherin values are not horrible and that they could do good with their sly and cunning if they use it against evil. If I do become Slytherin I believe I could help the Slytherin house earn a good rep and perhaps prevent future bad witches from sliding down that slippery slope they think is their only option".
