I love seeing Neville getting comfortable in his own skin - even at the threat to Trevor's. ;)
Love this fic! Neville is so sweet. And the ending is perfect! :D

Hee! Poor Trevor. Neville really should be more careful with him...

I'm glad you liked the revamped ending! Thank you for reading (again)!

Go Neville! I really enjoy fics where his braver side comes out. Nice job!

kerrymdb May 17 2007, 05:17:05 UTC

Thank you! Neville definitely needs to let himself be brave more often. Thank you for reading! :)

I think I love you. Just, yanno, wanted to start out with that ( ... )

I can't tell you how happy I am that you enjoyed the story! I was worried, because I could tell that you were really hoping for your first request and the plot bunny for that just wasn't hopping my way for that scenario.

Your comments put a huge, silly grin on my face. Thank you! And I'm so glad that the fic made your week better. Even just a little bit. :)

Kay, first, I absolutely love your icon. That made me laugh so hard when I saw it!

Neville is my boy. I love Neville *spreads hands wide* this much. It occurred to me that Neville really is the odd one left out with the Gryffindor boys. Dean and Seamus seem like they would much more receptive if Neville tried to become friends with them. Unlike Harry and Ron who have their secret club that you need to know the secret handshake to join.

I laughed with Seamus and Dean virtually talking over each other
I'm glad! They seem like such good friends that they might have a bit of 'old married couple' in their conversations.

Neville's reaction is EXACTLY like I thought he would've been like - hiding as much as possible and that bit with the falling on his face and trying to cover it?
Poor Neville! Some people might be really proud of Augusta's bragging, but I could see Neville just being so embarrassed!

Thank you again for such a thoughtful review. I'm really happy that you liked it! :)
