I think it\u2019s a backlash to the \u201cHufflepuffs are boring\u201d mindset that was going around for that past couple of years. Now it\u2019s almost like EVERYONE IS A HUFFLEPUFF BC HUFFLEPUFFS CAN BE ANYTHING AND AWESOME!!! which, okay, i understand the compulsion<\/p>\n

but what I see as the core of a Hufflepuff is a person DEDICATED TO PEACE but resigned to war. This is a person that never starts the fight, but joins it in order to support their friends. They are committed to people rather than ideals.<\/p>\n

Sam, for example, is Huffle through and through. He\u2019s TEXTBOOK Huffle. This is a guy who\u2019s dedicated his life to saving people (he was a paramedic and rescue) in the war and after. He takes up the wings again because Steve asks him to and needs<\/em> him to.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s contrast this with Steve. This is a guy with a chip on his shoulder, determined to enlist out of sheer fucking stubborn WILL. Bucky saw right through him when he said, \u201cAnd I\u2019m sure this has nothing to do with you.\u201d Because Steve says that he\u2019s enlisting to fight bullies (an IDEAL, by the way), but it\u2019s equal parts his need to prove himself. Steve has a hero-complex and a martyr-complex and it only gets worse after the serum.<\/p>\n

A Hufflepuff would have been fine pulling the wagon and collecting scrap metal. A Hufflepuff would have been fine helping out the effort in any way that they could!! Especially bc Steve\u2019s slow running speed, body weakness etc. might have actually hindered his fellow soldiers in the field!! But Steve\u2019s pride thinks that anything less than literally laying down his life for his not country is good enough.<\/p>\n

And that is why he is a god damned Gryffindor.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
