perhaps i'd be more articulate the next time i'll write this down, but just know this - my portrayal of neville will always love hermione quite whole-heartedly. i wish i have the brain capacity to describe just how much hermione means to neville, but let's just say it encapsulates beyond even a romantic notion; it's everything. loving, respecting, being around hermione simply to enjoy her company is purely a selfless act that brings immense satisfaction and enjoyment for him. again, his actions [for any hermione portrayals] may came out incredibly romantic, although please be forewarned that this is in no way of me pushing for a ship — for i, too, much rather build a dynamic than forcing one — but simply the way i've interpreted his mannerisms when it came to the witch. i hope this may clear some things up!

#but also : nev is pretty chaste and sweet 2 herm #bc in a way he puts her on a pedestal and all he wants is to comfort her. please her. ease her. etc #like he loves her so much that that's all he wants to do #but if he WERE romantically interested in her... then herm would probs realise nev... have his rough edges #like i'll talk abt THAT another day #but yes. he's sorta lowkey glorifying her which meant #he does hide SOME aspects of himself as to... i suppose. not taint the perception he believes she has of him #on the contrary - in that aspect; he might've been more honest with luna and ginny about #like how he curses easily when he drinks. and yeah. around gin he likes drinking #he..... does search for sex to cope....... but again. i'll talk abt THIS another day #he can be a BIG shameless flirt #he's grown a lot confident after the war - but with herm he tames a lot of that personality down #he puts that away rather; he wants to prioritise herm.#and i wonder why..#perhaps due to how long they'd gotten separated during the war ? or maybe he just didnt want to disappoint her for some reason ?#hmm.... curious. curiouser.#neville.#neville; information.
