Oh, Shiiki! This is unspeakably beautiful. My makeup needs to be reapplied because I cried so much, but I don't really care. What an amazing gift to give me this morning. I owe you a debt of gratitude.

I've always loved Neville, but here, he's simply darling. You just did for me, emotionally, what he and Hannah did for Eloise. Thank you.

*hugs* I was thinking of you all day, and I really wanted to do something. I'm glad this helped. ♥

It was like ingesting a mouthful of kindness.

Awww, and this is precisely why I love Neville. And your depiction of him here - unassuming but still a hero to someone else. Lovely!

Neville is the true type of hero, I think. Hardly the loud kind, but a person that makes a difference in his own small way. (Of course, he did end up doing something really big, but I'm more proud of him for little things like keeping Alice's gum wrappers and standing by his friends.)

Glad you liked him here!

This was a fun read. I liked the relationship you gave Hannah and Neville. I felt a lot of sympathy for Eloise. It was bad enough for her to have bad acne and to have been so desperate about it that she cursed her own nose off, but to have every one in the school talking about it had to have been awful.

Thanks! I know, I've always felt a great deal of sympathy for the poor girl as well!
