no Sherlock at Hogwarts all my opinions. Sherlock would be Ravenclaw
and Mycroft would be Slytherin, but John's totally Gryffindor and
Lestrade would be Hufflepuff. I would argue that in any rendition John
and Sherlock should be Gryffindor and Ravenclaw (especially in
Sherlock's case), but it's especially true of the BBC rendition.
Gryffindors are brave ("Bravery is by far the kindest word for
stupidity, don't you think?"), chivalrous ("'Kinder'? No, no, Sherlock,
that wasn't kind.") and independent ("'still has trust issues'"), though
for their independence are very loyal to those who earn it ("You're
very loyal, very quickly."). Ravenclaws value their intelligence and
learning over everything else ("Well, if I ever knew it I've deleted
it"), can be regarded as weird or bizarre if their area(s) of interest
don't fall in line with those around them ("Hello, Freak"; "Do you
really not know the earth goes 'round the sun?"), and are likewise
fairly independent types ("You're not his friend. He doesn't have
friends."). Slytherins value camaraderie (as evidenced by his desire to
keep Sherlock safe and in his life, his easy connection with John, and
his reliance on Anthea), and are cunning ("He is the British Government,
when he's not too busy being the British Secret Service or the CIA on a
freelance basis"; appealing to Sherlock's need to solve crimes in order
to avoid the legwork necessary to resolve what happened to the
Bruce-Partington plans), and to a certain degree, manipulative ("You
know how it always upset Mummy") to those around them in order to
achieve their ends. Hufflepuffs are also team players (Lestrade is the
chief of police, come on) who value camaraderie, and believe strongly in
justice ("I'm breaking every rule letting you in here." "Yes, because
you need me." "Yes, I do.").
