Monday rectification effort starts now.
Moving on to something more productive than the topic of my last post: you guys, sometimes I am really, really, really slow to realize things.
Like, for example, I just realized in a burst of light on Saturday, May 1, in the year 2010, that Neville Longbottom is pretty much the archetype of everything that makes my favorite characters my favorite, and that is why I like reading good, long fic about him so much and think glumly that there is too little of it.
And then, also this weekend, also in the year 2010, I read Night-blooming Heartsease for the first time (I know! But I'm slow and also I used to be a lot more averse to deathfic, I guess.) and of course it was fantastically brilliant and I should have read it a long time ago but now I have read it and I'm not aware of any other Brilliant Neville Epics that I have been putting off reading so I'm at a bit of a loss.
I have read all the Lust Over Pendle stories twice, and I have read Helen's Theft of Assets, Destruction of Property at least three times, and that one - Strange Bedfellows? - where Draco is Neville's secretary also twice, so, um. If anybody wanted to rec me fic where Neville is awesome and quietly competent and gets the guy or girl or whomever, that would be fabulous.

I suppose you are not the person to ask to dissuade me from writing fic where Neville is depressed after the war ends because he doesn't know what to DO with himself anymore without a war to fight or parents to avenge or abuse to withstand, and his gran sends him outside to take a walk after he's been shut up in his room for altogether too long, and Neville decides, well, fine, he'll keep walking until he thinks of something else, then, and he's made it to Scotland when Something Rather Unexpected Happens and then there are hijinks, and, um.
Gah, me and my plot bunnies. For Neville Longbottom. In 2010. I don't know whether to feel like I have entirely missed the boat, or just be sort of sad that I missed signups for
