Just slaying a monster. In a cardigan. No big deal.
NEVILLE FRANK LONGBOTTOM Gryffindor - 1991-1998 Founding member of Dumbledore's Army. Carrow resister extraordinaire. Slayer of Nagini. Former Auror. Bona fide badass. Herbology Professor (possibly Gryffindor Head of House?)
Brave. Awkward. Sweet. Family-oriented. Still kind of working on the whole "self-esteem" thing.
Amelia and Neville would have went to school together. She was Keeper of the Gryffindor team. She's stubborn, sarcastic, but fiercely loyal. Too focused on Quidditch (she played professionally as a teenager) to get involved in much else but now as an adult she might start standing up more for political reasons that don't involve a sport.
Maybe these two could be friends? She would definitely set him up with Quidditch tickets if he wanted and always hint that he should bring a date just to be a wise ass.
Yes! And she's older so she would remember him as little bb scared-of-everything Neville, so reconnecting was probably interesting. Plus, if they're close enough friends for her to hook him up with tickets, he's probably going to ask her for advice on the ladies because it's not one of his natural skills haha. And in terms of politics, where I'm assuming there are still supremacists around, he could take her under his wing in the ways of being a visible, vocal member of the "what's right and good" camp. So, basically, YES, I think these two as friends would be delightful! How would you like to start them off? Figure out their established-buds dynamic or go back in time for some earlier development? I love it all. xD
I'm fine with either. We have a past board to explore so maybe that might be a good kick off point? Just to see what their dynamic was and figure out how it changed?
Past sounds great! What if Auror-training Neville showed up at a stadium shadowing for some job-type-thing and they bump into each other that way? And then we see how their dynamic goes?
@neville - Amelia is eventually the subject of some Death Eater terrorist attacks due to being a muggle born so this is entirely plausible. Maybe Neville is shadowing her potential bodyguards or something. Maybe they just received a letter and the Ministry is already trying to start setting some protection up? Nothing too serious yet though!
These two were in the DA together, so I would imagine they'd gotten to know each other reasonably well at the time. Maybe they stayed in touch after leaving school? Susie went into the DMLE after graduating, but into a desk job rather than the Aurors - maybe they continued to hang out when Neville was working with the Aurors? At any rate, Susie has massive respect for Neville, and thinks he should give himself more credit.
Camille and Neville I think Camille and Neville can be friends Since their both Hogwarts professors. Camille like gardening so she would often look up books on gardenimh and maybe that's where Their friendship can start? I could see them sitting together at the library reading. Camille is rather shy so she wont talk much but she appreciates the friendship
