You’re running late for work, what do you do?
A) Message the boss some pathetic excuse via Whatsapp. Hopefully a different one than last time.

C) Pretend that my daemon has transformed into an albatross who can carry me to work.
How do you make important life decisions?
A) Write a list of pros and cons, sleep on it then make a decision while pissed.
B) Skim through the Harry Potter Wiki to see what Salazar Slytherin would do. Just don’t tell my Gryffindor friends!

What do you look for in a partner?
A) Someone with compatible interests who can help me grow as a person and likes to have huge amounts of sex.

Mostly As: You’re an actual adult with your head on straight. Oddball.
Mostly Bs: Your love for Harry Potter has a chokehold on your personality. You nearly grew out of it but then they made all those films and that stage play you hate.
Mostly Cs: His Dark Materials has taken over your life even though you’ve only seen the first couple of episodes and gave up on the books after chapter one.
