In the same vein as the Hogwarts sorting, we thought it would be fun to host our own Choosing Day, Divergent style, and see what factions our favorite Teen Wolf characters would choose if they were given the choice.
It’s Teen Wolf Takeover month on Hypable.com, and today we’ve hosted our very own Choosing Day. Read all of our TWT articles here and submit your own!
Earlier this month we sorted all of our favorite Teen Wolf characters into the Hogwarts houses, and it made us all think about the different ways we can see them. This time, we decided to give the factions of Divergent a try.
Derek Hale
Dauntless
The qualities that Dauntless prizes above all others are bravery and courage, and we think Derek Hale is a firm possessor of both.
What he lacks in self-esteem and even common sense sometimes, he more than makes up for with a willingness to put himself in harm’s way to save others, demonstrated most profoundly in season 3 when he literally put himself between Boyd and Cora to save a stranger, Ms. Blake, from a terrible fate.
Scott McCall
Abnegation
Scott McCall, while also brave and a bit reckless at times, has mastered the art of forgetting oneself. He consistently throws himself in harm’s way in order to save others, not only in instances of danger, but when their embarrassment or self-esteem may be in danger.
Stiles Stilinski
Candor
Now, that said, if any of the Teen Wolf characters were to be Divergent, it would clearly be Stiles. He has an affinity for Candor, yes, but he also has the ability to see knowledge at any cost, like the Erudite, and throw himself into harms way to save someone else, like the Abnegation. We think Stiles himself would choose Candor, whether he was Divergent or not, but we know where he truly belongs.
Alison Argent
Dauntless
She is brave, and brave to a fault sometimes, sticking her nose into things that may be better left alone. We think Alison would choose Dauntless because she values her bravery, and we think she would want everyone else to know that she values it too.
Lydia Martin
Erudite
She is always ready at a moment’s notice to spill all the valuable information in that ever-thirsty brain of hers. Also, her striving for the Fields Medal and being able to speak Archaic Latin really seal the deal.
Danny Mahealani
Amity
Isaac Lahey
Dauntless
He also has an insatiable need for justice and will stop at nothing to avenge those that have had wrongs done to them, all of which lands him unshakably in Dauntless. Oh, and we think he’d be first jumper… How could be not??
Vernon Boyd
Abnegation
Whether it is due to low self-esteem, or just a penchant for worrying about others first, Boyd is above and beyond Abnegation. He is a loyal and devoted pack member to Derek, looking to keep the rest safe, even when it means running. When he and Erica tried to run for their lives, he did his best to protect her in the only way he knew how, to sacrifice himself. We think it’s an honor to mark Boyd as the only clearly Abnegation character on Teen Wolf, and we think he’d agree.
