[Good evening, Luceti. It's just past sunset, and neighbors around House 26 might have noticed Neville outdoors a bit later than usual, fussing with an overgrown potted ivy. A wave of a wand and a cheated mumbled incantation later, the plant has grown to twice its size. From there, it's a bit of a boring magic show while he works with ineffective spells, some of them providing mobility to the little vines; mostly, though, there's nothing. Fully engrossed in his work, he doesn't notice some of the vines loosely coiling around him until they begin contracting against his forearms. He yelps in surprise and sets to work stunning the wispy strands, which might have been easier if he'd work on mobilizing it before it was the size of a rather large cat.
Little help?]
hermione should've supervised,
it'll only crush his windpipe a little,
introverts are hard to post,
protecting the house,
neville sucks at magic,
he doesn't do nonverbal spells ever,
it's just a little suffocation,
they're going to need a new gardener,
feed me seymour,
it eats intruders,
devil's snare bites back
