House Aesthetics II
GRYFFINDOR: splattered paint, standing atop a skyscraper & staring down to the streets below, trembling hands, ashes, arms open wide, drumming your fingers on the table, feet thrumming on the pavement, raucous chuckles, speeding down the highway at 3 am, last-minute one way flight, screaming at a rock concert, toes off the edge of the high diving board, arm wrapped around your waist
RAVENCLAW: shaky breaths, wooden bookshelves, chewing your pencil when deep in thought, dust, tilted glasses, picnics at parks with delicate quilts, skirt twirls, little flourishes, open windows, light bulbs near burning out, spiral staircases, the clean flip of a page, a deep breath before launching into a speech, dry jokes with killer punchlines, messy scrawls & illegible signatures, a tug of your hand
HUFFLEPUFF: soft smiles, flowers winding through braided hair, eyes like the sun, long grass, socks sliding across wood floors, the warm aroma of cookies in the oven, a bouquet of flowers, tumbling down a hill, skylights, grass stains on white shirts, slow dancing, trampolines, dirt-coated fingers, lollipops, leaning one’s head on another’s shoulder, round sunglasses, bright pink lips, fairy lights, elbows interlocked
SLYTHERIN: Black holes, perfect high ponytails, dark lips & dark thoughts, arms folded across chest, the clicks of boots down the stone corridor, narrowed eyes, the snap of a finger, spilled ink on crisp paper, flickering lights, hands on hips, liquid movements filled with grace, one-liners drowning in sarcasm, darkened hallways, a hint of perfume, a quick glance away only when you look, flirtatious smiles oozing confidence, a tap on your shoulder
