I adore Neville, but he is definitely the most don't-want-to-be-in-the-limelight character ever. I thought long and hard about how they were going to have to get him to admit his bravery and the Imperius seemed the only way. Thanks for reading & reviewing.

He'll have to own up to being a hero, now. And Luna can tell their children exactly what daddy did in the war.

Neville's my hero. Awwww.

Thank you. I thought that Ron would try to puff up his role and Neville would downplay his. It seemed to work well with the prompt.

When you have two such disparate characters trying to embellish or diminish their roles in the last battle, strong measures must be used. But Lavender going to the Ministry to ask for permission was just too good a giggle to pass up.

When you consider the two it was used on, not really. Ron would definitely try to bolster his part and his ego. Neville would simply try to fade into the background.  To keep both of them sticking to the facts, it was warranted.

But... its Imperio! It is controlling someone else like a PUPPET! If I were Neville or Ron, I would never trust any of them again.

I think everyone considered WHO it was going to be used on and decided that Ron would definitely try to overstate his role without it, and Neville would again try to understate his role.It was a different take that appealed to me.

It was what I thought Neville would do, since he wasn't the publicity seeker that Ron was. Glad you liked it.

I do try for the unusual, sometimes.
