‘Harry!’ Neville burst out, the moment he saw the other two. ‘Longbottom, if brains were gold you’d be poorer than Weasley, and that’s saying something.’ ( PS13) Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle howled with laughter, but Ron, still not daring to take his eyes from the game, said, ‘You tell him Neville.’ ‘I’m worth twelve of you, Malfoy,’ he stammered.
Neville went bright red but turned in his seat to face Malfoy. See, there’s Potter, who’s got no parents, then there’s the Weasleys, who’ve got no money – you should be on the team, Longbottom, you’ve got no brains.’ Said Malfoy a few minutes later, as Snape awarded Hufflepuff another penalty for no reason at all. ‘You know how I think they choose people for the Gryffindor team?’ ‘The Sorting Hat chose you for Gryffindor, didn’t it? And where’s Malfoy? In stinking Slytherin.’ ( PS13) ‘You’re worth twelve of Malfoy,’ Harry said.
‘There’s no need to tell me I’m not brave enough to be in Gryffindor, Malfoy’s already done that,’ Neville choked. ‘He’s used to walking all over people, but that’s no reason to lie down in front of him and make it easier.’ ‘You’ve got to stand up to him, Neville!’ said Ron. ‘Go to Professor McGonagall!’ Hermione urged Neville. He said he’d been looking for someone to practise that on.’ He must have had to bunny hop all the way up to Gryffindor Tower. How he had managed to climb through the portrait hole was anyone’s guess, because his legs had been stuck together with what they recognised as the Leg-Locker Curse. ( PS11)Īt that moment Neville toppled into the common room. Neville had been sobbing into Hagrid’s jacket for the last five minutes. ( PS9)Īll Neville cared about was never going near the dog again. ‘I think we’ll be OK – get off, Neville!’ For Neville had been tugging on the sleeve of Harry’s dressing-gown for the last minute. ‘He thinks this door is locked,’ Harry whispered. ‘I don’t want to stay here alone, the Bloody Baron’s been past twice already.’ ( PS9) ‘Don’t leave me!’ said Neville, scrambling to his feet.

I couldn’t remember the new password to get in to bed.’ ( PS9) ‘Thank goodness you found me! I’ve been out here for hours. He was curled up on the floor, fast asleep, but jerked suddenly awake as they crept nearer. ‘Never thought you’d like fat little cry babies, Parvati.’ ( PS9) ‘Ooh, sticking up for Longbottom?’ said Pansy Parkinson, a hard-faced Slytherin girl. Malfoy on Neville: ‘did you see his face, the great lump?’ ( PS9) Madam Hooch on Neville in the air: ‘Come back, boy!’ she shouted… ( PS9) Look, you hold it tight like this and if it turns red – oh…’ His face fell, because the Remembrall had suddenly glowed scarlet, ‘… you’ve forgotten something…’ ( PS9) ‘Gran knows I forget things – this tells you if there’s something you’ve forgotten to do. ‘Take him up to the hospital wing,’ Snape spat at Seamus. Neville whimpered as boils started to pop up all over his nose. ‘I suppose you added the porcupine quills before taking the cauldron off the fire?’
‘Idiot boy!’ snarled Snape, clearing the spilled potion away with one wave of his wand. Great-uncle Algie was so pleased he bought me my toad.’ ( PS7) And you should have seen their faces when I got in here – they thought I might not be magical enough to come, you see. But I bounced – all the way down the garden and into the road. Great-uncle Algie came round for tea and he was hanging me out of an upstairs window by the ankles when my great-auntie Enid offered him a meringue and he accidentally let go. My great-uncle Algie kept trying to catch me off my guard and force some magic out of me – he pushed me off the end of Blackpool pier once, I nearly drowned – but nothing happened until I was eight. ‘Well, my gran brought me up and she’s a witch,’ said Neville, ‘but the family thought I was all Muggle for ages. ‘Trevor!’ cried Neville blissfully, holding out his hands. Neville, the boy who kept losing his toad, sniffed once or twice. ‘I’ve lost him! He keeps getting away from me!’ ‘Sorry,’ he said, ‘but have you seen a toad at all?’ ‘Oh, Neville,’ he heard the old woman sigh. From Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
