Why was Peter Pettigrew in Gryffindor?

>> No.5904819

why does this need a thread? But either way I did'nt know he was in Gryffindor. I guess u gotta be brave to be a spy.

>> No.5904829

Because contemporany people like to give noble values to the worst kinds of human beings.

He started off strong like a rock but then being petty grew on him.

Why aren't you on the multiple forums around the internet dedicated to HP.

Smart people can have pleb taste. I've seen many smart people write lengthy essays on HP that were really good. Stop trolling, it's almost christmas.

He was brave enough to live with pre-adolescent gingers for a decade.

Didn't it mention in one of the books that the sorting hat just puts you in whatever house you want to be in?

Because the hat will send you anywhere you ask it to but most students never figure that out. He's a Gryffindor because he took his life into his own hands

Many of the proper nouns in that series are like that. It's a simple clever thing for people (kids, usually) to figure out. You already know this and are just being obtuse, I hope.
Pettigrew
Diagon Alley
Knockturn Alley
Slytherin
Sirius Black
Lupin
Malfoy
Voldemort

Because the Sorting Hat takes your input as a factor into its decision.

Peter wanted to be in Gryffindor, so the sorting hat placed him there.

>> No.5909238

Gryffindor is the house for leaders and sidekicks.

Peter was definitely a sidekick, or at least he badly wanted to be. Sirius kind of stole his spot as James's right-hand man.
