Torino's Tuesday Question
We often complain that Slytherin gets the short end of the stick. What are the positive characteristics of Slytherin house? Are there examples? (Of course one must wade through the anti-Slytherin bias to find them.) You may keep the discussion general or make it more Snape specific if you wish.
And do you think logic and forethought are inimical to the creative process? Because I don't. I'd certainly accept that Slytherin is the creative house, based on what we see in canon, but I do think we also see rather more logic and forethought from them than from, for example, the Gryffindors, and a lot more practicality than from the Ravenclaws.
