The Most Intense Color of Any Living Thing on Earth

Also known as the marble berry, Pollia condensata is a wild plant that grows in the forests of several African countries. The berries are not edible, but they have an extremely rare property. They produce the most intense color of any living thing on Earth. Even after the berries have been picked from the plant, they stay the same shiny, vibrant, metallic blue color for many decades.

The vast majority of colors in the biological world are produced by pigments—compounds produced by a living organism that selectively absorb certain wavelengths of light, so that they appear to be the color of whichever wavelengths they reflect.

However, the marble berry’s skin has no pigment. The berries produce their vibrant blue color through nanoscale-sized cellulose strands that scatter light as they interact with one another. Thus the fruit’s color is even visible at the cellular level as pictured above.

you decide to just glance at your dash before you go to class. you start scrolling and scrolling. after awhile you think you’ve had sufficient time. you look up. your house is nothing but charred ruins. beyond your neighbourhood has been laid to waste. giant cracks in the earth’s crust spurt lava a few metres away. you have blogged till the end of the world. congratulations

I’m not going to lie, if I went Hogwarts, I’d probably be put into Hufflepuff.
It’s full of simple kids. I’m simple. I’m not evil, nor am I that courageous. I’m not very smart either; so Hufflepuff is what I’d be left with.

God damn it.

Please please please PLEASE DO NOT SAY…

Oh. I was being hypothetical. Since the houses are a work of beautiful fiction. But nevertheless, fiction. You gotta chillax man.

I just responded to something like this with someone else.

1- Yes, it’s a work of fiction. I acknowledge this.  However, it is a work of fiction that has LITERALLY SAVED LIVES.  So it’s pretty serious stuff.

2- I think Albus Dumbledore said it best: “Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean it is not real?”

3- Some people actually take the House they have been sorted into seriously because the traits associated with that House validate them or give them something to believe in as a person.  If you are going to shit on Hufflepuff, you are contributing to the fact that so many people who do get sorted via Pottermore hate it and don’t bother to read the welcome letter or listen to anything JK Rowling says about Hufflepuff.

4- If you don’t want critical feedback on your post, don’t tag it with the fandom it is related to.  Believe it or not, people track tags because they want to see nice things other people create and share with the world.  If you are going to post something that could even remotely be misconstrued as hate or dumb shit (to put it bluntly), don’t tag it and people won’t respond to it. 

5- You seem to have put a lot of thought into how useless Hufflepuff is for it to “just be fiction.”

Y’know, everyone has their passions, everyone has the things that they are protective over, and sometimes those are characters and works of fiction.  This doesn’t make it any less valid.

Wait, there’s an actual website which sorts people into houses?

There are several - the most popular and commonly-known one being Pottermore, which features a quiz (albeit a flawed quiz) designed by JKR and the Pottermore programming team. (Really, the best way to do this is either to look at the fairest questions or to do a full 27-question sorting. Or sign up for a lot of accounts and take the quiz repeatedly.) But you could start by signing up for a Pottermore account and making your way through the first 7 chapters of the site.

There are also two unofficial quizzes that are pretty decent. See this post.

But, while dragonbadgerhugs has summed this up admirably, Hufflepuff is not the House for people who aren’t smart/brave/ambitious - it’s for people who are loyal, brave, hard-working, humble, and compassionate. It’s not defined by a lack of qualities; Hufflepuff is a House with a lot of good things going for it.
