Oh, right.
I had the oddest dream last night.
It was a Harry Potter dream; more specifically, a Draco dream. I don't remember a lot about what it was about, but I do remember that it was a family trip of some sort. Narcissa was quiet, mostly, but smiled at Draco a lot; and Lucius kept congratulating Draco for something. And Draco was well-behaved, which I think was the most surprising. They seemed, I don't know, well-adjusted. It was very disconcerting.
And then there was the sunflowers with opening centres that had pictures of their family; I think that was the main reason they were in this grassy field, to see the pictures. And then Draco was tracing his finger from himself on over to Sirius on that black tapestry, and then turned to Harry (who had just shown up as it was the first day at Hogwarts) and said... I'm not sure what, but it was in a very wondering tone.
They still hated each other, but it was more like a family hating.
It was very odd.

The reason that Slytherin rarely wins is that, while they do well when working against outside forces (other houses) one-on-one, they win, but they constantly subvert each other, so in the moment teamwork is required, they fall apart.
The solution here is to know when to be subversive and when to be loyal.
