Hi new friend!! :D *waves*

VERY interesting treatise on Maria Hill. Exactly the kind of thing I was wondering. I remember reading in various fics that she ends up in charge of SHIELD, which does immediately make one think Slytherin, but many a Gryffindor has been known to run corporations, as well (Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws, as well, for that matter.) I could definitely go with your Gryffindor assessment - love it!
