"You're not haunted by the war, Doctor Watson. You miss it."

There was this whole explosion on my Tumblr dash over what house John fit better, Hufflepuff or Gryffindor. It's an argument I don't really understand, because I can't quite follow the reasoning behind putting him in Hufflepuff personally, but everyone's interpretation is their own, and I won't throw shade on that. Regardless, I think the above line and Mycroft's other line about bravery being the kindest word for stupidity pretty accurately encompass my opinion on the matter.

I think that John would be in Gryffindor because of the fact he craves and actively seeks out adventure, danger and opportunities to be brave, which I don't think a Hufflepuff would do. He does have a lot of Hufflepuff traits though, so it's hard to know for sure. Harry and friends had quite a few Hufflepuff and Hermione was classic Ravenclaw even though she was in Gryffindor so it doesn't help that there was so much bias in the series.
