I was rereading Order of the Phoenix and got to the part where the Sorting Hat is making its big speech about how it's a great relic because all the founders put something of themselves into him.
Which means there's some of Slytherin in him.
Now, Tomdemort went around shoving bits of his soul into other objects owned/touched/loved/snogged by the founders. He also had very strong emotional ties to Hogwarts. Any possibility that the Sorting Hat has a little bit of Tom Riddle in it?
If this is inapropriate, please delete this or yell at me and I'll delete it. But it popped back into my head and I wanted to write it down before I forgot.
