person: slytherins can’t be brave! they are selfish and evil!
me: sorry, I can’t hear you over the sound of 18 years old regulus black dying alone in a fucking cave after choosing to drink a excruciating potion in the place of his house elf in a plan to give someone else the chance to defeat voldemort and end his regime of terror
Slytherin Headcannon
Inspired by this post: when Slytherins graduate, they write a single “tip to success” on a wall somewhere in the common room, whether it’s how to brew a perfect anti-paralysis potion or how to get on a certain teacher’s good side.
This becomes a sort of shrine, “the wall of erudition,” with candles and everything – I feel like Slytherins would also be a little superstitious, so there would be some offerings there, and many muttered prayers in front of it during exam seasons. It would also be a fantastic record of the lives and histories of the individuals who wrote on it.
