Sorting Hat
Ten Years Later Meme



How it Works:

1. Post with your character and how they've changed in ten years time. What's happened to them? Did they marry and have kids? Did they become an Auror? Did they die? Did they come back to Hogwarts to teach? The possibilities are endless!

HARD MODE: Good End and Bad End. Post with your characters Good End and Bad End.

2. Others reply to your characters and just roll with it. Are you still friends? Have you become enemies? (If you're going with Good and Bad End, be sure to specify which one you're playing out.)

3. HAVE FUN WITH IT.

4. (Also, no wank. Come on, it's a fun meme.)

GOOD END:

Cyrus only taught at Hogwarts for another few years, before he left the position and went to receive training in order to become a sort of auror, focusing on wizards who went rogue in using symbols and runic means in order to harm others.

BAD END:

New evidence arose in regards to Cyrus killing his father under the Imperius Curse. He went on trial and was found guilty and spent about three years in Azkaban before another trial proved his innocence. He became slightly broken over being in Azkaban because he truly felt he was guilty for the crime even though it wasn't his doing. He proceeded to stay with Rhys after being released from what was supposed to be a ten year sentence. He then wound up going into the wizarding private investigation field, and started to privately track down dark wizards.

BAD END

[wwistful]

[So he's just ratted Cyrus out. Suddenly it's dark and walking home alone seems like a silly idea.]

Bad end for both of them

[nosigntospeakof]

[He could so easily lose his job for this. Private investigators specializing in tracking down Dark Wizards aren't exactly looked kindly upon by the Ministry and he works for the Justice department now for Merlin's sake.

But he doesn't have much of a choice. There's been no progress made in tracking down Karkat and he's getting desperate. Sal can't help but feel his stomach sink as he forces his ruined left hand into a fist and raps twice on Cy's office door.]

BAD END

[grandhighwizard]

[Rhys's house is quiet when he's not there. But the older man tends to fill it with noise and activity upon return, even if it's just brewing. He seems more than happy to keep the younger man here, away from everyone else, all to himself.]

Oh, there you are, my boy. Where have you been hiding?

[clockspinner]

GOOD END: Dicked around for a season after graduation as reserve Seeker for the Wigtown Wanderers, until he took a bludger to the head during practice and realized that his eyesight had become even more shit. He then decided to pioneer the industry of WIZARDING CINEMA.

Yes.

Wizarding Cinema.

Basically the same as muggle cinema, except that spells are set into the reels to add various effects. Like 3D without the glasses, smell-o-vision, changing the temperature and humidity/moisture level in the theatre, etc.

And then just recently he's decided to go back and teach Muggle Studies at Hogwarts.

BAD END: His eyesight deteriorated/he took a bludger to the head before graduation, so after he made ALL THE MONEY with WIZARDING CINEMA and became RICHER THAN ROWLING GOD, he decided to go into training and become an Auror. He's probably still in training at this point.

And then when the war starts up, he ends up being gruesomely tortured and murdered by Sweeney Karkat.

[arachnoble]

Good End

Sybille continued to teach at Hogwarts until getting together with Peter Banks, and joining him as he went back to the Quidditch world. The two had a child together, and she spends most of her time raising their song and trying to balance out their influences on the child.


Bad End

She snapped, and she killed a group of muggles. Now she's on the run, and she has nowhere to go and nobody who she can depend on. Really, maybe it would be better to turn herself in, but she doesn't want to die or be broken.

Good end for both of them!

[nosigntospeakof]

[Guess who made a special trip to your house with a giggling three-and-a-half year old attached to his neck for a play date.]

Hello, Sybille.

GOOD END BECAUSE BABIES

[wwistful]

[Casually holding your child here.]

I hope for your sake that he gets your wits and not his Father's.

[selfhatred]

Good End:

Karkat went on a road trip across America with Gamzee, Jade and Tavros, which included a lot of drinking and illegal stuff, including being jailed in Texas and subsequently rescued by Dave. Married Jade in the end and has 7+ kids and Gamzee living under the same roof.

Bad End:

Things took a turn for the worst for Karkat in this end. Growing bitter and cold towards his friends and those he thought he loved, he ended up being taken under Galen's wing. His personality twisted, and after murdering Tavros stays in hiding with his aunt and uncle for a little while before the start of the second war.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

GOOD END since we already have a bad one

[nosigntospeakof]

[He drops by for a visit and ends up instantly covered in small children wanting hugs, kisses and chocolate frogs. Karkat, help.]

Bad End because I want PI!Cy to track him down

[psiignlanguage]

[It'd been a long few years, but he'd finally tracked Karkat down, with the right sort of bitterness in his heart that comes from seeing family murdered, and friends broken over someone gone rogue. And this was the day where he was going to finally make sure Karkat was served a plate of justice.]

[animalmagnetism]

Good End

After a stint of teaching he goes back to quidditch and becomes world famous. Leads the Pride of Portree to a world cup and introduces the team to some promising young flyers as a result of his teaching! He gets with Sybille and has a kid and is generally a happy happy daddy and celebrity. He uses his position to speak out for creature and muggle rights!

Bad End
Starts the same as the good end...except he gets captured by some dark wizards (Voldemort followers? someone else?) and tortured for speaking out until he snaps. He cracks, goes feral and disappears into the deepest woods.

[i_bullieve_i_can_fly]

Good End

Makes up with Karkat and also realizes he's gay! And after graduation they all go on a road trip across America. Eventually hooks up with Gamzee (presumably anyway) and they are the happiest of BFs.

Bad End

Does not make up with Karkat and only grows further apart from him. In the seventh year, he's kidnapped by Galen and left in a basement for hours before Karkat shows up and proceeds to torture him violently, cutting out his eyes as a souvenir before being murdered.

His soul is kept in a jar by Gamzee.

Bad end

[mo_cara]

[Gamzee lies sprawled across his bed, pillowing his head on the cold chest of his zombie companion. One hand idly plays over the boy's dead skin along his bare thigh, while the other holds a softly glowing jar above his head. He gazes up at it, smiling happily.]

Got you all to myself now, me. Motherfucker is all mine. I love you, baby. Love you forever.

[Then he kisses the jar with a discomfiting little chuckle.]

oops I tl;dr'd a little

[nosigntospeakof]

GOOD END:

Sal continued to teach at Hogwarts but chose to continue his pro-Muggle activism on the side and during the summers. This went on for about five years before he got a little too vocal and was stirring the pot too much. He was kidnapped shortly before his 37th birthday and was subjected to two weeks of pure torture by blood purity extremists after which he was dumped in front of St. Mungo's.

He was left with numerous scars, most notably horrible burns on his hands and wrists from cuffs they slapped on him and then gradually heated over the span of a few hours. It took him 6 months to recover and even longer to regain most use of his hands although he has virtually no feeling in them anymore.

But Sal bounced right back with the help of his family and friends and was able to return to his job a year and a half after his kidnapping. Shortly after his return he and his wife had their second child, a daughter they named Dipika.


BAD END:

So that whole raising his nephew to be a good, decent person thing? Didn't work out so well. He finds out Karkat has gone off the deep end and over to the dark side plus he kind of ruthlessly murdered that adorable Nitram boy. Sal confronts him about it and ends up with a head full of curses that lead to his being on fire.

After mostly recovering he leaves his job at Hogwarts and applies for a job at the Ministry justice department with a heavy heart and the intention of bringing his nephew to justice. Spoilers he gets murdered.

Bad End. always bad end

[selfhatred]

[Karkat seems almost...amused. It wasn't to say that he hadn't been expecting this to happen, but it had been coming for a while now.]

Hello, Uncle.

[wwistful]

GOOD END:He leaves Hogwarts a few years after Eridan and Feferi and gets a cushy ministry job where he's slowly rising up the ranks. He's very proud of his children and he likes to name drop them. He's waiting on those grandkids.
In his free time he's a stand in baby sitter for Sybille and Peter and a part time member of the relationship.

BAD END:He's bitter and lonely. He notes the ill behaviour of his former coworkers and friends and rats them out. The dark wizards to the ministry and the rebels to the dark wizards. Eventually it catches up with him and he winds up with a serious case of the deads.

[cuddlefishpeixes]

GOOD END: She plays for the Pride of Portree under the captaincy of Peter. She doesn't plan on settling down for a good long while, although she wants to settle down and have kids someday! COOL YOUR )(--EELS, DADSCAR. 38D

BAD END: Eridan kills her with science. Starts out the same as the good end, but when Peter gets captured and tortured she takes up his mantle both as captain of the Pride of Portree and as an outspoken creature and muggle rights advocate in his memory, and is targeted and attacked as a blood traitor. Iroh dies of a nasty curse, and she ends up going into hiding/on a hunt to find Peter.

GOOD ENDING

[wwistful]

[Yup. He's over your house now, casually straightening things out as he rants.]

So. Who was the lad you were huggin' after the game, Fef?

Graham Specter, age 26

[heartwrenching]

GOOD END: Plays as a Beater for Puddlemere United, where he does really well despite having a terrible reputation for inciting/joining/worsening pub brawls and generally being a weirdo. He's frequently the subject of tabloids thanks to his behavior and general impossibility to follow when giving interviews, and may or may not be the subject of a wizarding equivalent to a meme like Tebowing or Bradying (whatever Spectering is is probably quite illegal).

Likely has a questionably-legitimate kid or two, God help all parties involved.

BAD END: Aaaaaazkabaaaaan. After Ladd Russo ends up locked away, Graham goes on a tear in revenge and with nothing/nobody willing to even try to keep him in line, gets locked up himself. Given that he's way too manic and difficult to control for even Azkaban, he's likely not got long before he gets the Dementor's Kiss.

[grandhighwizard]

GOOD END: Stays with teaching at Hogwarts, and slowly starts to give up some of his more extreme hobbies, as he becomes obsessed with instilling knowledge and his crazy values in the younger generation. Starts painting regularly again, and gathers up a cadre of students on the fringes of things, all the weird and loner kids, basically training them to go out and create chaos in the world as they get older, spreading true psychedelic values of creativity and hedonism and changing perspective. Hooks up with Cy on a more permanent basis, and feels he finally has someone he can trust with all his craziness.

BAD END: Decides there's no one he can trust, and starts doing his fear/dream experiments on the kids at Hogwarts, drugging them and running them through terrible gauntlets. Takes several students, including his nephew, under his wing, and forms his own little cult with them, after breaking the minds of multiple kids and watching them be sent to St. Mungos. Eventually gets caught and sent to Azkaban for life, but has his crazy nephew carrying on his work, and all his disciples causing havok in the wizarding world.

[mo_cara]

GOOD END

Sort-of hooks up with his best friend, or at least lives with him and has a lot of sex with him. Goes on a road trip after 7th year with a bunch of friends, ends up knifing a dude in Mexico, but covers it up with magic and the help of Karkat. After some more wacky adventures, he finally hooks up for real with his long-time crush, Tavros, and also somehow ends up being the hippie uncle for all of his friend's kids, though he mostly takes care of Karkat and Jade's brood, and teaches them all the many wonderful uses of the word 'motherfucker'.

BAD END:

Gets rejected by his long-time crush, and has his best friend drift away from him. Other friends get sick of his weirdness, and Rhys finds out they're related, so takes Gamzee under his wing, breaking his mind some more. Once they're done with school, he uses a spell to track down Tavros, intending to kidnap him and drug him, but finds his corpse, instead, and promptly uses Dark magic to revive it and trap the soul in a jar. He continues his studies in voodoo and the Dark Arts, until he runs into Karkat again after many years, and they have a confrontation over Tavros. Also, at some point, he possibly steals Dave's body, and turns that into a zombie slave, too.

[instantdrama]

Good End

All of Jude's dreams come true! At some point, she finally forms a band and enters a contest over the summer, which she wins and gets a recording contract from. Though it's rocky, she eventually makes it big and world famous. She does end up going to America though, but keeps in contact with all of her old friends and eventually starts touring in Britain again, to be closer to them and to get inspiration for songs.

Perhaps you've shown up to one of her shows? Or she's sent you a free ticket. Or you're visiting her at home, or in America.

Bad End

None of Jude's dreams come true and she ends up being a waitress at a diner, because she never put more effort into her studies and doesn't have much of a future. She's definitely bitter about this, and isn't at all as cheerful or happy as she used to be.

[disciplewhomsignlessloves]

GOOD END

Dierdre happily teaches at Hogwarts for a few more years. But after Sal's encounter with a dark wizard, Di immediately drops teaching and comes home, putting all her energy and magic into healing him and making him comfortable. To be honest it was a complete surprise when she found out a little later that she was pregnant but she was completely content to have another child, whom they named Dipika. She occasionally works as a substitute at Hogwarts, leaving Dipika in the capable hands of her husband or his not!mother.

BAD END

Dierdre's life slowly fell apart, as Karkat drifted from the family, turning dark and cold. She tried her best to forgive him, to take him in when he needed help, but his cursing of Sal was the first time she could never ever forgive him. Though Sal was more obviously looking for Karkat now, Dierdre sent her own little spies out in the world, her kneazels pouring out to bring her back information.

Nepeta's murder was the last straw and Dierdre never fully recovered. She became quiet and withdrawn, with just a hint of concealed rage that cropped up whenever Karkat was mentioned. When Sal dies, Dierdre breaks entirely. She starts stalking dark wizards and bringing them to justice and eventually ends up being tortured and killed.

double bad ends

[animalmagnetism]

[The forest is foreboding. People sometimes disappear and never come out again, especially wizards, and there are rumors of something that used to be a man but no longer is living in there. The creatures, magical and mundane alike, are particularly vicious towards humans, and every once and a while there's what looks to be remains of shattered wands dangling from vines. Not a place for the faint of heart, or probably the sane.

But those who enter feel like they're being watched, because they are. Peter might have gone completely feral, but he's still intelligent and still has his magic. He just completely despises anything to do with humanity at all anymore, clinging to the only things he loves. The woods, his wand, and a hand-made broom.]

[sonofamelonlord]

GOOD END

Iroh finally gets through to him, and he realizes what a douchy idiot he's been, and cuts all ties with his family other than Iroh, and accepts his new cousins. After graduation, and an angry encounter with said family, he becomes an auror, determined to bring them down.


BAD END

Snaps, and kills some random muggle, earning daddy dearest's forgiveness. Becomes a Death Eater like they all wanted, and gives no fucks about Iroh and his new cousins. May actually kill them if he gets the chance.

[jasmineofthewest]

[You wanna kill him? Here's your chance. The curse he was hit with has finally just about taken its course. He's lying in bed helpless. There's not much he could do to stop you. He doesn't even have a wand on him anymore, he hasn't used magic in months because it would only make the curse move faster.

The ball's in your court.]

[fuckmackandme]

GOOD END

Dicked around until David came up with the idea of WIZARDING CINEMA. Then he pretty much forced his way into the business and made an assload of money with it too.

After a while, he started his own magical pranks and jokes store, and broke a giant tome of wizarding pranking that could kill two cats.


BAD END

Same thing as good end, only during the store's early years, he pranks the wrong person, in the wrongest way. Now there's a bounty on his head, put out by the Death Eaters, and he's gone into hiding.

you say david like its so fucking posh john goddamn (good end)

[clockspinner]

[Dave's stopped into John's joke store about 30 seconds before closing, so he can talk to John after hours.]

Hey man, you got a minute?

Loki!

[thesmallesttrickster]

Good Ending:
Continued his education past Hogwarts by going abroad and studying all over the world. He maintains good relations with his brother and eventually comes back to Hogwarts to teach for a year or so a teacher. Got bored with that and is now working in a book shop he opened in Hogsmead. Continues to prank where ever he goes.




Bad ending:
As he continued through Hogwarts he gradually became colder to everyone around him, especially his brother, who he saw as having everything he could not. He disappears after graduating, emerging a year or so later as a dark wizard trying to take over not just the wizarding world, but also the muggle world. He made a large attack on the Ministry of Magic, but was unsuccessful. He was never caught, and continues to cause minor annoyances for both wizarding and muggle law enforcement.

Bad End buhuhuh

[brothor]

[Thor was the first to notice the shift in his brother's behaviour. He was also the first to deny it whenever anyone else brought it up. He was deeply concerned for the younger boy, but every attempt to reach out left him feeling more and more hopeless. He worried for Loki when he graduated, leaving him behind was more difficult than he had imagined.

Then the amount of letters that had once been so frequently exchanged between them had dwindled down rather quickly. When Thor left home for his three years of training in order to become an auror, Loki had not been there to bid him farewell. However, when Loki attempted his take over, Thor had been there to greet him. He encountered him alone, exactly as he had intended. Now a full fledged auror and prouder than ever, he was determined to make sure the Ministry had as little to with this as possible.

This is a matter of family.]

It has been a long time, has it not? You do not look well, brother. Have you truly sacrificed your health, among other things, in the name of such pettiness?
