now I feel perfectly in place with my fellow Hufflepuffs.

Lesson learned: don't accept pumpkin juice from Hufflepuffs. It might be poisoned.

Fantastic. I love this take on the Founders' story, and given what happens with the Marauders later in life, I love how that's reflected in both the story and your fic's conclusion.

Yes! The untold story. Makes so much sense. Salazar made up the pureblood tripe to save himself some dignity.

"I left the school due to the dangers of housing muggleborn. Now look, the other three are dead because of it! Nyeh."

"But, didn't leave because Helga would have..."

"I said nyeh!"

This was just hilarious, I don't think they will ask Sirius for another story

damn. bella told sirius gory bedtime stories. Headcanon accepted

sirius is too funny!

Really tho, imagine the first years during breakfast the next day. A Hufflepuff walks over 'hey we are out of jam at our ta-' cue all first year gryffindors screaming.

This is the most brilliant story about the founders I've ever read. I'm absolutely sure this was the true version!

It's always the agreeable ones. Eventually they snap.

...

What I'm more worried with is that BELLATRIX used to tell Sirius bedtime stories.

Okay, this is PRICLESS! I love it. Best crack fic EVER!

That is definitely a story that Bella would tell her cousins-though I don't know what the moral of the story is. Never trust a Hufflepuff? Great story!

Beware the Hufflepuff
