To Harry’s surprise, the rest of the sorting has a few surprises for him. Ron goes to Gryffindor, as expected, but Hermione? After several minutes of contemplation, the Hat places her in Ravenclaw! Harry hardly knows what to think. Of course, Ravenclaw will probably suit her incredibly well; they are the most intellectually leaning of the houses, much like Hermione herself. The people there will be like-minded to her and hopefully, she won’t be lacking in friends. He was obviously prepared to not be in the same house as her and Ron, but... That the two of them won’t even share a house? He never could’ve imagined.
