What if Ron was in Hufflepuff?

0:03.0

Hey brother!

0:05.0

One of the most common and pretty fun Harry Potter theories out there

0:08.2

is that the Golden Trio, Harry, Ron, and Raiminey,

0:10.8

sorted into Gryphondor actually each represent the other three houses.

1:18.4

shop in Diagon Alley, who first began to spoil Sltherin's reputation.

1:22.8

At the end of the day, this was relatively easy to modify,
