That would be really intresting because we know so very little about
the Ravenclaws. I would like that to happen. I also think its so
silly that they don't have friend outside their own house. In some
respects I think it's wrong.
Someone mentioned that Neville is under the imperious curse. I've got
to say I don't belive that rumour at all, it has faults (it wears off
like it did with Ron) and no noe has seen book 5 apart from JKR
Finwitch I agree with you when you said that Harry had too much on
his mind to worry about Neville, but I would like to know how Neville
reacted after hearing the news. The way I see that unforgiving curse
lesson is that Neville knew who it was but had no proof so as a
warning to "Moody" he raised his hand, after all he never answered
anything unless it was herbology so to all of a sudden do this must
of had another motive. But "Moody" warned him to keep his mouth shut
by the demostration. That my opoin anyway.
Finwitch said
Neville's unfocused and uncontrolled with his magic. Some of this
might have to do with him using his parents' wand (Just guessing it
is so) and his mental trauma he'll overcome.
But one thing: Only Neville has ever had uncontrolled, accidental
magic at Hogwarts! (And only in third book after starting Hogwarts
things *just happen* to Harry... while it happens *all the time* to
Neville...)
Like the cauldrons, and again I'm going to bring up the point that
all other refrences to faulty cauldrons are that they leak e.g
Percy's report, the pub etc, I think the melting thing is going to
play a big part later on.
I would also know about Neville's mother. I still find it very
strange that she is not mentioned by name and that she was tortured
second. I think it was his mother who knew about Voldie and her
husband was covering for her.
