Synopsis: Which interesting reactions came from the sortings? What does the Sorting Hat think? I hope I can show many possibilities.

Sorting Drabbles

Chapter 1: Albus Dumbledore

"Dumbledore, Albus." Professor Dippet announces, causing several reactions from the students.

"Dumbledore?" A student asks. "As in that muggle hater Percival Dumbledore? Could Albus be his son?"

"I think so." Another student answers while pointing at the Slytherin table. "Look. The Slytherins act like Albus Dumbledore was already sorted into their house."

"With a muggle hater like Percival Dumbledore as his father, Slytherin is the obvious place for him." Another one comments.

"Why so many people see Slytherin as a house for bad people?" Horace Slughorn asks himself. "Slytherin is a house that values ambition and cunningness. Not the evil these characteristics are commonly associated with."

Albus Dumbledore then takes a seat and lets the Sorting Hat be placed on his head.

"Hmmmmmm." The Sorting Hat comments. "A desire to get over your father's reputation. And, quite interesting. Your father did what he did as a retaliation for what those muggles did to your sister. Have you ever thought it'd be better for everyone, including your sister, if your family told the truth about her? She could get medical treatment."

"Mom and Dad put so much effort on the pretend I'm afraid of telling her that." Albus replies quietly to the Sorting Hat. "Please don't tell anyone."

"Don't worry." The Sorting Hat replies. "Your secrets are safe with me. As for your house, I say... GRYFFINDOR!!!"

All other students are shocked. Specially the Slytherins and Albus' fellow Gryffindors.

"He should have been sorted at our house." A Slytherin comments.

"He might have been sorted at our house but no way we're gonna talk to him." A Gryffindor comments and several others agree. Albus seems to be ready for the challenge.
