i always just assumed that the hat could ~read into the future or some other sort of magical bs and it would always know how the person could/would change, so i guessed that was why neville was sorted into gryffindor because i always saw him more as a hufflepuff than anything else. but i definitely agree on wanting to read something like that. especially when you're told 'you are clever/brave/loyal/cunning' and then you feel as though you have to follow that. and i think there'd be a lot of peer pressure because say you're in ravenclaw, but all your housemates are cleverer than you, then you're going to do all you can to fit into it.
ikr. and i just didn't want them to end up because kyu was a dick in there and there felt like no...progression? no reason why zhou mi would still be all happy with him all the time, no reason why kyuhyun was still a dick after all those years. it could have worked in a much longer story, if there was a lot of history and interactions between each part
