The first time I cheated just to get Sherlock ( )
The second time I did it for real and got Moriarty ( )
well I think that's more or less true.

I got Molly!! I think it's cos I wanted to be sorted into Hufflepuff.

The first time I did it I got John. I thought it was because I said the first thing I do in the morning is make breakfast. So the second time, I changed it to check my email, because I actually do both simultaneously, and then I got Mycroft.

I'm definitely more John than Mycroft: Warm, patient and personable, you’re willing to put up with a great deal (possibly too much?) from those you care about and you are intractably loyal. You’re a bit of a thrill seeker and frequently rush headlong into danger, especially if it’s to protect someone important to you. You have a stubborn streak and maybe a possible psychosomatic injury or two, but you’re definitely the person all your friends want on their side in a fight.

I don't think anyone who knows me would characterize me as warm and I'm definitely not patient. But I am very loyal and definitely a thrill seeker and also, I grudgingly admit, stubborn.

But I wanted Sherlock!!!

Another Sherlock.
(Does Sherlock really like/not mind MP&tHG? How would he deal with the questioning to get over the bridge? Hmm. He's probably made a study of the weights of swallows.)
I've often wondered what I'd grab if there were to be a fire. Logically it should be passport containing visa, but instinct isn't the same.

Funny, I answered "People always tell me they appreciate my: Sympathetic ear"
and I got
SHERLOCK

Hm, I'm Sherlock, too. Must be my subconscious that's steering me towards these answer. I mean, I'm feeding my pet first thing in the morning.

Yes, but you have sherlockskitty to take care of, right?

**Posted by SusiGo** August 31, 2012 9:43 pm

Yes, of course. What may I serve you tomorrow, tuna or salmon, my dear?

After having answered all these questions with utter honesty, I'm quite delighted to see I actually got Molly.

Most of the things in the description really fit, the pet answers for example...and I always found Ravenclaw especially interesting since I like ravens.

And well, I've chosen my username not only because I like Molly, but also because I can identify with her quite often in my life.

Mycroft! Well, I'm quite reserved, we got this in common. Hard for me the question about the film, *closed my eyes and pointed*

I got John

**Posted by besleybean** October 13, 2012 8:01 pm

Oh is this the one I've done on line before?
I got Sherlock.

**Posted by Mattlocked** October 13, 2012 8:13 pm

I got Molly.
Of course I feed my cat first in the morning and I would rescue him from fire.
But the description doesn't fit. I'm an egoist and I always see the BAD in everyone.

Have to try again.

Last time I was Sherlock, this time I was Molly. Abrupt change of personality, I suppose.

**Posted by horserider99** October 13, 2012 8:42 pm

I ended up with Sherlock too, which is odd. I guess it had to do with the fact that I'm clueless about Harry Potter, first thing I do every day is check my email, and I'm not into the relationship thing.
It gave me this:
You are Sherlock Holmes. The smartest person in any room (unless your brother is there), you frequently drive people crazy with your rude tone, frighteningly meticulous eye for detail and rapid-fire conversation. Some find your brusque demeanor and total disregard for social norms off-putting and you might have a hard time making friends. But you’re shockingly loyal to the (very few) people you choose to associate with voluntarily and there’s definitely a heart buried somewhere under all that arrogance. Your friend is probably right about the solar system being important, though, so maybe you should look it up.

You are John Watson. Let’s be honest, pretty much everyone loves you. Warm, patient and personable, you’re willing to put up with a great deal (possibly too much?) from those you care about and you are intractably loyal. You’re a bit of a thrill seeker and frequently rush headlong into danger, especially if it’s to protect someone important to you. You have a stubborn streak and maybe a possible psychosomatic injury or two, but you’re definitely the person all your friends want on their side in a fight.

I do have a younger brother, I do think there is an older sibling personality type.
