Exactly. She's clever and ambitous. I thought she was a Gryffindor--but it just didn't feel right. I'm a Gryffindor myself (Via. Pottermore)  and I couldn't feel much in common with Merida. She also proves Slytherin quality because instead of doing what is best for her kingdom she decides to fight marriage. Not that that is a bad thing of course! She also is mainly loyal to her family. And despite a few temper tantrums she does think before she acts. She managed to be cunning and think her whole way through how she was going to cheat the contest for her hand.

Jack on the other hand I can connect with. He is Gryffindor with Slytherin qualities; similiar to a boy with a lightning scar. He follows his heart, is a prankster, and just wants a laugh. He's lonely and I bet he doesn't mean to be destructive sometimes. He's loyal to the Guardians and treats them like family. When Pitch offered a partnership he turned it down--a Slytherin would have turned it down for the sake of a family. Jack turned it down because he knew it wouldn't be good for the world. He knew people would be scared of cold and dark--Jack didn't want power he wanted love. Also, when Jaime was having doubts about Bunymund, Jack got Jaime to believe in the Easter Bunny instead of himself. It was lucky Jaime heard Jack Frost for I don't think he would have believed in Jack.

Jack is a Gryffindor and Merida is a Slytherin.
