Another great installment! I love how this is from Luna’s perspective on the other side of the glass, and yet you can still tell just what Pansy and Neville are arguing about.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it, and that everything came across for you.

Neville as a crumple-horned SnorKack! I do like the dynamic you've got going here, and as lionille says, this scene works perfectly from Luna's POV. I think this is the first time you've written Luna as part of this scenario, rather than just a peripheral character? You should do more - I like your take on her!

Lol, yeah, I know it's corny by I really couldn't resist it. It was screaming to be written.

Yes, this is the first time that Luna gets an 'in the flesh' appearance. She's such an important character to these two, and whether or not she gets another cameo...well, we'll see.

Thank you! I really appreciate your comments.

*grin* Love the addition of Luna to the mix here...I am so far behind on reading. Off to your next installment!

I think I'll have to read this sequence from beginning to end. when you first started, though, did you think it would be a whole series of events?

The first story I wrote for this series was The End of All the Fighting and was written for a ficathon. At that stage I had no idea that I would be writing more in this 'universe.' There were snippets that I had to cut and I really liked, and the idea of Pansy and Neville together really appeals to me. So I posted Rising Dawn and then after a while I signed up for 100quills and claimed Neville/Pansy. Everything I've written for that in this universe can be found here. The only problem you might find is that I don't write in chronological order. This means that there are a few discrepancies between 'earlier' and 'later' fics, and since this is primarily for my own enjoyment, I tend not to try and fix them (because it would cause too many headaches). I might be a hypocrite but at least I'm self aware. ;)

As far as reading order goes, chronological might be best, but in any case these are more just 'scenes in a life' and not an overall story arc with plot and suspense etc.

It seems like I've gone on (and on). Thank you very much for reading!

read through them all.
I really liked the story you told with that sequence. I did a small three part with just Neville and Millicent once. I may try to do a similar set again for some of the other pairings I am trying to come up with. I know with each pairing there is going to be a Slytherin involved, but finding the right (or wrong) other character might be harder than I thought. I'm aiming for characters people don't normally use so...
