The Lie I've Lived/YMMV


 * Alternate Character Interpretation: The Sorting Hat's own experiences with the Hogwarts founders shows them to be very different from how they're regarded in the present.
 * Ron the Death Eater: Spectacularly averted with Dumbledore, who Harry actually expected to turn out by this trope and was completely blind-sided by Dumbledore's own realization and apology.
