Mmm. I don't know the DDS1 peeps well enough to even try to place them, and was pretty much concentrating on the seven Embryon. Also, I have to say that they're all difficult to place. This might not be anything new, since canon HP, Harry could have gone into either Gryffindor or Slytherin.
Also, the thing about Embryon is that they're all guerillas fighters, and they might not like having to eat other people, but only Argilla is openly troubled by this.(she's Vegan!) So, they all have that certain ruthless edge that could make them Slytherin material, but they also all have that idealistic streak that could place them in Gryffindor, and they're all loyal to their people which would point to Hufflepuff...
It's not an easy call, and your reasoning is solid and I understand it and agree with it, so if you want to write something for this crossosver idea, I would absolutely love to read it.
*sheepish* That being said, I hashed their placement out last night, and this is the way it's fitting together in my head right now.
Gale: Ultimately Ravenclaw, could go either Slytherin or Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. He's cold, calculating, and ruthless when he has to be. He's also severely data-oriented. Slytherin isn't necessarily power-hungry ass-kissers or megalomaniacs, the impression I got was that it also included cunning, ruthless types. Loyalty goes without saying. He's the stragegist though, which involves data more than anything else, so yes, I would definitely place him in Ravenclaw, because he'll keep at something and keep at something until he can break it down into how it affects Embryon.
Heat: Ultimately Gryffindor, could go either Gryffindor or Hufflepuff. Yes he's loyal to his people and will do anything for Sera, but he's also hot-headed and stubborn and will stick by what he thinks is right, even if it damages some/the rest of the Tribe.
Serph: Ultimately Slytherin, could go either Slytherin or Hufflepuff or Gryffindor. No, he's not manipulative, and he's definitely a do-er, but he's also the leader. He has to make the difficult decisions in a wartime-environment. The responsibility ultimately about who lives or dies is his, and he knows it. He has to be able to be ruthless, to sacrifice anyone, including himself, for their goal. He's as loyal to the others as they are to him, make no mistake, but... eh, I don't know if I'm saying this well, but he's less Gryffindor than he is Slytherin. Also, about Gryffs not being manipulative, one word: Dumbledore.
Sera: Ultimately Gryffindor, could go Gryffindor or Hufflepuff, easy. She's idealistic, determined, and has a huuuuuuuge guilt complex about things that she didn't set out to do, but happened because of her. She is trying to fix things as much as she can, both for the Embryon and for Earth, which is kind of Gryff-ish.
Roland: Could go Gryffindor or Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw. As someone pointed out, he engages in the kind of self-destructive behaviours that a frustrated Gryffindor might. He also takes the demon virus, which is the kind of impulsive thing typical of a Gryffindor. He's really a tough one, and I'm slightly inclined to put him in Gryffindor, but he'd fit real easy into Ravenclaw. Or Hufflepuff. @_@
Argilla: Ultimately Gryffindor, could go Gryffindor or Hufflepuf. Yes she's loyal, but she's also idealistic, always looking for a way to improve the world, never satisfied with the way things are put together.
Cielo: Hufflepuff. Yeah, he's the only one I didn't really have any trouble with, because while he could fit in in Gryffindor, he's very, very Hufflepuff. He's loyal, and he's.... mm. He's not book-smart, but he's wise - he has an instinctive understanding for the inter-personal connections between people and their importance.
I think it all boils down to that people aren't cookie-cut for a certain house, and that the houses themselves aren't as clear-cut as some people might like to think.
