Predictably, Neville was left partnerless.

Hullo, this is Neville Longbottom, I think I've done this right.
Erm, you can leave me a voiceletter. If you'd like.

Yeah. He was a teacher - Potions - and the head of one of the four Houses. [Neville stops to think about the question, and he finds himself nodding even though she can't see it.] I think so. He was just about the most powerful wizard in the world, according to everyone. None of that would have been allowed to happen, if he had still been alive: Professor Dumbledore always did everything he could to protect that school.

And... d'you really think he'll start torturing kids again, if Mr Dumbledore leaves? He's at the school now. [Fiona has met him, and he reminds her of the kind of guy who sells weasels out of shoe boxes on street corners because they make excellent pets, really, one for five dollars, two for nine! But, you know, wizards. They're weird.]

I-- don't know. Maybe not. But he already proved perfectly willing to do it once, didn't he. [No matter what Harry and Hermione say, that is absolutely nothing that Neville wouldn't put past Severus Snape anymore.]
