in general I think sorting by "extrinsic traits" is silly and it's much more useful to consider intentions/motivations. eg all 4 archetypes may well spend time reading a book, but a gryffindor may do it to fight evil or some such silliness, a hufflepuff to keep their friend company, a ravenclaw bc knowledge is its own reward (a terminal value), and a slytherin to gain power or further a plot
This is quite helpful! I now have something to pull reasoning from to debate with him since I was pretty much guessing before. Thanks!

Sadly, I don't eat Gluten anymore, so there will be no crust on this cheeseCAKE, but who the fuck eats cheeseCAKE for the crust? Despite the fact that I can't have the vast majority of them any more, Cake will always have my heart.

How is cheeseCAKE pie!? If what you say is true, then I may have fucked up my vote.
It has a crust and a filling. What would you call that?
A tart?
Tarts are mini pies. I've watched enough GBBO to know that.

I always get Martell despite my love for the north. I guess I'm too peaceful.

I'm going to go ahead and put the word "mouthfeel" with unironic winks in the "this makes me uncomfortable" pile.

Of all the characters in GOT, I identify most strongly with Doran Martell.

LOL I mean, you could make a crust, but I have to use like Almond Flour, and it's pretty AIDS to work with and expensive, so I just forgo the crust entirely.

You got: House Arryn
You’re out of your damn mind, but no one wants to be the one to tell you. Sorry.

And here I thought I was in the 99th percentile of emotional stability.

Oh shit, I got Lannister on this one. I'm cool if that means I'm Tyrion. Not so much if I have to be either of his siblings or his father. His uncle, maybe.

You got: People of the North
You are a free spirit that can’t be held back. You refuse to live by common conventions, and have always blazed your own path. You were born free and always intend to remain that way.
