Belated birthday present <3 #hufflepuffpride
Reminder that nowhere in the sorting hat does it say that Hufflepuff’s are nice. That Hufflepuff’s are gentle. That Hufflepuff do things calmly.
But is does say in the books that Helga Hufflepuff fiercely believed in equality. That Hufflepuff’s were second only to Gryffindor in those who stayed behind for the Battle of Hogwarts. That Cedric Diggory kicked butt in the Tournament challenges.
Hufflepuff’s aren’t the kind of people who will pretend the world is a happy place when it’s not. Hufflepuffs are the kind of people who will be rioting on the street when injustice is shown, and if you get in the way you’ll get to see first hand that Nymphadora Tonks isn’t the only Hufflepuff who knows how to fight.

I was requested to do some Harry Potter backgrounds :)
My other background sets: Doctor Who | Supernatural | BBC Sherlock
HiH Tea Blends | Hufflepuff House • “for hufflepuff, hard workers were most worthy of admission” • chamomile, pumpkin spice, candy apple
For Hufflepuff I went with chamomile for the main component of my tea. It’s an herbal tea, which seems earthy to me (much like Hufflepuffs) and I always think of chamomile as being very soothing, so it seemed like a good combination. I chose pumpkin spice to go along with it because pumpkins are also an earthy food, but we want to remember that Hufflepuffs can have a bit of spice to them (like Tonks). As for candy apple, it seemed like a fun and sweet flavor, which is what I think about when I think of Hufflepuff. Plus, both pumpkin and apple are often ingredients in pie, which is a nice comfort food. — Colleen
( Feedback is especially appreciated since we weren’t too certain about the percentages and intend to fumble around with those to make them work out perfectly. ♥ )
You might belong in Hufflepuff, where they are just and loyal, those patient Hufflepuffs are true, and unafraid of toil.

What do you guys all think of the Hufflepuff stereotypes of niceness and kindess? I assume it comes from the fact that we’re often “patient” and such could be interpreted as being patient with people who are rude, but apart from that I don’t think the stereotype has an logical reason.
What with both equality and “fierce loyalty” both being Hufflepuff values, I’d say that when someone enforces injustice, a Hufflepuff would be one of the first to get angry and stand up!
What do you think?
Here’s a little present that I made for my amazing girlfriend. She lives 3000 km away from me and I often send her cute gifts, and since she loves Harry Potter I decided to make a HP/Hufflepuff themed box, including some DIY stuff that I made just for her!

You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;{Hogwarts || Gryffindor || Ravenclaw || Slytherin}
