Piotr N. Rasputin is tall...like really tall... like just a few inches from 7ft.

I wonder, just a little, if that was ever a cause for concern or thought, really? Like I know on the farm in Russia he was probably looked at as a literal gem. He was big, strong, and made for heavy farm work...but he also was pretty big for his age and just seemed to grow pretty quickly.

Comes to America and what? He just magically (ha!) gets perfect fitting clothes and everything? Obviously this is HC shit but he is freaking 'normous for just regular looking guy that turns into something.

Did his family have scramble and buy or make new clothing for him after Mikhail grew up, because he's taller and bigger than him?

I'm taking a two flights to Wisconsin and I was thinking...

When Colossus isn't flying X-jet, do you think he always drops extra to get that first class leg room (and only buys nice seats for the leg room)?

I don't even think Comfort+ would allow him the relief of having to tuck his legs basically for 2+ hours wherever he's going - imagine he's like 'Ill take a flight to Russia from New York' and the Main cabin or Comfort+ was the only options..

you know what would be such a look™️? geno with diamond stud earrings

And then there's Geno and Ovi escaping their hotel room every night to get McDonald's. That's a Gryffindor move.

honestly though 😂😂 i still believe with all my heart and soul that ovi is a ravenclaw, but geno definitely pulls ovi into all of his shenanigans because ovi does the same damn thing to him

Geno is for sure a Gryffindor. Haven't you guys read about his escape from Russia? And, I mean, can't you imagine him saying "Hold my beer" before doing something crazy? Because I can

i cried my heart out when i read up about his escape. i could never imagine doing something as brave and as terrifying as he did. yo, but real talk, he really is the batshit gryffindor that would get someone else to hold his alcohol while he beats the ever living fuck out of another person.

these are good observations, and i love everyone talking about it and bringing up good points about the boys and what houses they would be in! let’s keep these observations going! this is pretty fun ☺️

I love the idea that Sid is Slytherin, but Geno?? Clearly a Griffindor! I mean, Griffindors and Slytherins are both supposed to be very ambitious and competitive, which Sid and Geno both are, but Geno also definitely has a weak spot for people in need(the orphanages he supports, the donations??) and let's be real - he plays his best hockey when he's avenging a fellow teammate - he's incredibly loyal and he LOVES being the hero... he's SO Griffindor!!

you know what? you make a very good point, anon. geno could either be a slytherin or gryffindor. what’s the combined house name for them again? @penguinsandyetmorepenguins help me out here!

We Ravenclaws don't want Crosby either because he isn't interested in learning things for the joy of acquiring knowledge, he uses it to be the best. Sounds like a Slytherin to me. But Snakes should take heart, because with Crosby comes Malkin. Anyone who escapes out a window like a stowaway to pursue his dream, is a Slytherin.

see? thank you! they are both slytherins simply because of how ambitious and determined they are to rise to the top.

now out of any nhl player who i can see being a ravenclaw, it’s ovi. that guy is always in pursuit of knowledge and loves to learn. he screams ravenclaw more than any hockey player i’ve seen thus far.
