Summary
Neville Longbottom wasn’t brave. In fact, if you asked anyone at all, they would say he was hardly a Gryffindor. He preferred his solitude and his plants. The greenhouses never avoided his company or called him a Squib or expected him to live up to the legacy of his parents. And, for six years, he got away with hiding there.
Then Voldemort came back from the dead, Harry left for an extended camping trip, and the school fell to the Death Eaters. Neville did what anyone would have done. He called for a meeting with the DA, certain that someone else (anyone else) would step up and become the leader that they needed to survive.
So why did everyone keep looking at Neville like he was going to lead a revolution? Why was his mum whispering to him every time he got cursed? And why was Draco Malfoy blushing so much?
