Matt: We must’ve gotten our wires crossed somewhere because I’m 90 percent sure I think Louise is in Ravenclaw. This is what happens when you’re irresponsible and text while working. 

Matt: You did? I sense a story! No, but I wouldn’t recommend it if it was just like a fanfic. It’s as big as a novel. It’s legit.

Matt: I mean, he is. Bob is a Gryffindor. Between starting his own business and heading up his family, there’s no way he’s not a Gryffindor. And being as progressive as he was even in season 1, he’s a total Lion. Tina is also a Gryffindor, she gets that from Bob.

Matt: That’s the issue. There’s no guarantee she wouldn’t change but I wonder what would happen if she did inherit money, because I think she picks up on the “poor and stupid” vibe Linda lays down in The Bleakening. So I’d be curious to see that side of Louise and who she is then.

Matt: Oh! Okay. Some phones don’t have super good luck in certain parts of NY getting wi-fi. I didn’t want to assume. Like, I have no coverage if I’m over in Greenwich. I’m not over there much though.

Brooklyn: Slytheriiiiiiiinnnnn

Brooklyn: Nooooope. Nope.

Brooklyn: Still think Tina is a ravenclaw. I’ll concede that Bob could be a Gryf

Brooklyn: I just give up on this okay. Agree to disagree.

“Ugh. So that’s what this is gonna be? You telling me not to waste my life.” He leaned forward. “I’m a grown ass adult who can fuck whoever he wants whenever he wants.”

“You are,” Brooklyn replied, “But I wish you’d take care of yourself in the process.” He whispered gently and looked away.

“What does adopting an animal sound so hard?” He groaned in frustration.

Movie Return : Open

[thebabybrooklynriver]

hartmovierentals:

Matt: Yes but I think Louise’s ambition overshadows her loyalty more often than not. Even if you take an episode like the Bango episode, I’m not as sold on it being about losing her lunch club or her dad time as much as it was about power dynamic and if you juxtapose that with episodes like Art Walk, it’s clear she sees her family as useful power wise and the warm, good feelings take a long longer for her to learn.

Matt:  If empathy is not a natural state for Louise, which it might become in time, that could change. But if Hogwarts students are sorted at 11, I have complete confidence the Hat would put her in Slytherin or Gryffindor (if the Weasley Twins are there).

Matt: I mean, I already had problems with both her Native American school and the casting of Johnny Depp but I think between the Slytherins and the deification of Snape, there are severe issues that should not be glossed over. FYI- if you haven’t read it- you should check out the fanfic Methods of Rationality where Harry is a scientist. It’s ah-mazing.

Matt: No, Bob is a total Gryffindor. He’s not great at it, but the traits are there.

Matt: Linda’s not a Hufflepuff. No way. The way she does up for Christmas? The B&B episode? Her Bed and Breakfast is no way the way a Hufflepuff would run a B&B.

Matt: I’m sorry, I just have a lot of opinions. I know my texts are like so historically long and awful. I hope I’m not killing your data plan.

Matt: It makes me feel weird to sell but people buy so *shrug*.

Brooklyn: I was arguing that it would put her in Slytherin and you told me I was crazy! I’m not forgetting the conversation! You are! LOUISE IN SLYTHERIN 2k18!

Brooklyn: I’m not about that fanfiction life. I learned my lesson the hard way. 

Brooklyn: No he is not. Lies and Slander

Brooklyn: That... is fair, but I mean no one guarantee she’s be a good hufflepuff, just a hufflepuff.

Brooklyn: I don’t use my data to text? I use wifi.

“And if I was?” Derrick rested back against the window, looking over at Brooklyn, a small smirk on his lips. “I’m fine. This is how I am any time I get laid.”

“It’s not how I get laid, so thanks but no thanks.” Brooklyn replied, side eyeing him before shaking his head. “You shouldn’t be having sex like this, Derrick.”

Movie Return : Open

hartmovierentals:

Matt: Hmm- true but it is fair to say they’re the one house loyal to each other? Aren’t the other three houses (especially Gryffindors) just as loyal? Like think about say…Percy’s redemption arc? Wouldn’t you say the Weasley’s show as much loyalty? And what would be the the difference between loyalty and fanaticism here? Just because Draco doesn’t run away from his duties as Malfoy?

Matt: #notallblacks though. You forget Nymphadora and Sirius and Regulus are all a part of that family line as well though.

Matt: Noooo- the books create a precondition of creating bad sorts by having 11 year old children identify badness and intolerance unduly with a house. I think there’s an odd christian allegory here, especially considering the snake symbolism. Oddly enough, green is supposed to be a color for royalty and yet red/orange here is denoted as a royalty color. It’s odd and actually pretty interesting.

Matt: So wait- is your entire argument that no Hufflepuffs have ambition so he *has* to be a Ravenclaw? Disagree with that point! Not just Cedric Diggory but both Madame Hooch (she’s the Hufflepuff McGonagall I think) and the Fat Friar are good examples of potentially ambitious Hufflepuffs. 

Matt: I mean, I tend to think Hufflepuffs end up being visual creatives in some cases- like bakers and chefs especially being that close to the kitchens of Hogwarts.

Matt: Yes. Yes it does. And people try to justify it as being “fantasy” but it’s very much like- unresolved issues much ya know?

Brooklyn: Okay but we’re saying that Louise is loyal and cunning. Not just loyal. There’s difference.

Brooklyn: I did not forget. It’s reductive to say Slytherin’s are only bad. And it’s problematic we as fans should be unforgiving in moving away from that notion and stating quite simply that they’re not bad.

Brooklyn: No. My argument is that combined features make him a freaking Ravenclaw. Next you’ll say that Bob is a hufflepuff. 

Brooklyn: Linda is the huflfepuff.

Brooklyn: BOI

Brooklyn: BOI

Brooklyn: No. I did not need to know that.

Derrick chuckled, walking along with the other. “You inviting me back to your place. You’re big and handsome… Duh.” He laughed softly and smiled at the other, leaning against the window. “My home or yours? Either way, wanna make out on the way?”

“My home and no. You’re... not in a place to give real consent.” Brooklyn murmured as he pulled him in away from the cab’s door. “Just relax, okay?”

[thebabybrooklynriver]

cypress-creek:

“Just wanted to check.” Cypress replied, following Brooklyn with his eyes as the man circled the room. “I know the situation isn’t ideal, but you haven’t even gotten down to Family Court yet.” He tried to sound comforting. “It’ll be different this time.”

“There’s not a single guarantee, I have an arrest record and a lengthy one at that.” Brooklyn murmured as he licked his lips slowly. “I just... can’t lose them. Not again.”

[thebabybrooklynriver]

cypress-creek:

Cypress’ eyes quickly scanned over the other man’s form as if rechecking that he was fine, that Brooklyn was, at the very least, physically fine now. “I’ll be there. Wherever and whenever. If you need any more witnesses, my moms will come down to the city.” There’s a part of him that is glad Brooklyn, however indirectly, asked instead of trying to surge forward without help. “Do you want to talk about it?”

“No. I don’t. I never want to.” Brooklyn murmured as he shifted to stand up. He paced the small room and inhaled deeply. “I don’t think that’s necessary for your moms to come down. I think it’ll be fine but I’ll check with the lawyer.” He rubbed his face. “This is so fucked.”

Derrick hummed as he was told he was going home with Brooklyn. The man threw his arms around the other’s neck, smiling brightly. “Well aren’t you sweet? I’ve always wanted to have you say those kinds of works.” He winked at the other playfully.

“Those kinda words?” He asked as he started to walk out the club, nodding to his coworkers as he made it out onto the street. He sniffed as he braced himself against the cold and flagged a cab. Setting Derrick down, he helped get him into the cab with a little shove. “Going home, okay?” Brooklyn said as he climbed in after him and gave the drivers the address.
