You're not a failure, Neville, not at important things or unimportant things! Except maybe at flying on brooms, but you're not as bad as you were, right? Anyway, don't wallow over it! You're not a wallowy walrus or whatever wallows, you're a Gryffindor! Roar, Neville, roar!

thanks, Ginny. i have gotten a bit better at flying recently, though i still must say it is not my preferred method of transportation.
and i'm trying not to wallow like a wallowy wallrus (or a pig? don't hogs wallow?), rather to move on and learn from it and go from here. but i think a part of that is admitting my mistakes and trying to correct them, if i can. but for right now, i think i've honestly done all i can about this situation.

so this time i'm truly on my way to your house, not just saying i'm going to. let's get this ghosts and bad-man thing figured out, hey?

ROAR! go, go, Gryffindor!

If you'd like, I could try to teach you some tricks to making it work better for you! Harry's the best one to teach you, of course, but he'd have to be willing.

I'll try to get the ghosts to quiet down before you arrive. Or at least leave the silverware alone.

That's better! Go, go, Gryffindor!

... You know, I always thought that sounded kind of cheesy but it's grown on me!

You've never failed me Neville.
Do you have a crystal ball handy? maybe we could chat tonight?

[herbology_dork]

er, i don't have one in my travel kit, but i'll certainly pick one up from somewhere. i'll find a shop right now.

Ok but try to buy brand name crystal the generic stuff cuts out after ten mintues!
