[Neville is... well. It looks like he's wrestling a giant bush. And that's probably what's he's actually doing, but in his mind this is most definitely gardening. He's heard that muggles like to grow hedges and trim them into interesting shapes, and that's what he's trying to do

[ Luna comes rolling up with a thoughtful expression ]

What a unique demonstration of the food chain, Neville!

[truebravery]

[;A; LUNA YOU CAN HELP HIM.]

It- it's not exactly... [He shoves against the struggling bush.] I think I overdid it with the plant food.

Re: A

[off_beet]

Oh. So it's not intentional then.

[ a dazed tilt of the head ]

Have you tried singing?

Re: A

[truebravery]

Uh. Not y-yet.

[The lion!bush gives a shove and Neville trips backwards over the cowering bunny!bush. He sits for a moment, blinking and making sure he's still in one piece. Why is it always him who ends up with agressive plants?]

I don't think muggle plants have ears, Luna.

Re: A

[off_beet]

No, most plants don't. But I always believe that they have a way of knowing anyways.

[ she smiles and starts over towards the bunny bush. Luna starts humming a happy tune and petting what would be its ears ]

[truebravery]

[:/ Sitting himself up, Neville just watches the odd scene.]

You couldn't sing to that one, could you?

[off_beet]

[ she tilts her head ]

What sorts of songs do you think it would like?

[truebravery]

[He almost tilts his head with her, it's sort of infectious, the way she does it.]

I've never really sung to plants before... What do you think?

[off_beet]

[she stares at Neville

stares at the demon shrubbery

stares at Neville again]

...perhaps swing?

[truebravery]

[he shrugs] I suppose it's as good as anything else.

[off_beet]

[ Luna starts humming what only sounds like big brass

She taps her toes a little.

The bush shakes, the lion mimics the toe taps ]

Neville...

...I don't mean to alarm you but...

I fear it may be off tempo.

[truebravery]

Eh? [For a moment he's just about alarmed, but then he lulz]

Well, it doesn't look like it minds.

[off_beet]

[ she smiles ]

No, I don't believe it does.

Perhaps you should try as well?

[truebravery]

I'm not that g-good at singing...

[off_beet]

That's alright, the plant is off tempo to start with.
