starbuckle's trio text from yesterday (omg, i love this series):
8. hermione made a vague flailing motion with her hands, which ron — miraculously — correctly interpreted to mean "please snog harry," so he did.
( here's the whole series )

and now, the neville TextSlash responses from scottxwl, camillafarfalla, dorrie6, switchknife, jacito, kaalee, fuschia, annecatherine, and penknife. as you can see, some people wrote more than one. and one person went a little crazy (in a good way). and numbers 15 and 16 had issues - i'm still hoping to hear back from their author - and it looks like maybe they made a mini-series with 17.

neville grows a pair:

1. Eyes focused on his feet, heart pounding in his ears, Neville shuffled up to the urinal. No stall for him; today he was a man! by scottxwl

2. "No." Neville looked straight into Snape's furious scowl. "What was that, Longbottom?" Neville gulped, holding steady. "I said no. Professor." by dorrie6

3. "shut up about harry, draco." draco smirked. "what, are you queer too?" neville was sure he'd regret saying "actually, yes," until harry smiled. by penknife

4. Neville's screams woke the other boys. They all came running. "Neville, uh, you've got..." stammered Harry. "Breasts," answered Neville. by scottxwl

5. When Neville asked her to the dance, he blushed. When he dipped her, he muttered something about "lessons." But when he kissed her... Hermione melted. by scottxwl

6. Draco's screams echoed as he ran from the dining hall. All eyes turned to Neville. "What?" he asked innocently, adjusting his new sports bra. by scottxwl

7. Harry pulled away from Ron, breathless. "That was..." panted Harry. "Yeah," sighed Ron. "Please don't stop" said a small voice in the dark. "Neville?!" scottxwl

8. Neville steeled himself and gave his transformed boggart a peck on the cheek. The Snape dressed in his grandmother's clothing sneered. Ridiculous. by annecatherine

9. The pale man, bound to a cauldron, oily hair in front of his face, begging. "Bet you wish I would melt this cauldron like all the others huh, Professor?" by kaalee

10. "I want these essays perfect," said Professor Snape. "Especially you, Longbottom." "Yes, GRANDMA." said Neville. It was almost worth it. Almost. by scottxwl

11. "I do!" They turned. Neville continued, flushed. "I think about Malfoy when I-" Seamus choked. Ron paled. "I did NOT need to know that, mate." by dorrie6

12. "I'm worth ten of you, Malfoy," he had shouted. Now they just laughed. "I didn't know you meant it literally," said the blond, his hand squeezing Neville's length. by kaalee

13. "Do or do not," thought Neville. "There is no try." He curled his fingers into a fist and punched Draco in his big, stupid head. by scottxwl

14. "Stop laughing!" yelled Neville. "It hurt!" The tears came to his eyes before he could draw a deep enough breath to stop them. Why him? Why always? by scottxwl

15. Neville hadn't realized how much taller he was than Draco Malfoy until he was slamming Draco flat against the wall by fuschia

16. Neville by fuschia

17. Their bodies, in combat, in contest, flexed and pushed against each other, intimate as fingers closing into a fist. by fuschia (and i know she'd just gotten back from CA when she sent me these so possibly she was too exhausted and busy to see that they sadly were present in unfinished form. i will think of a way to make it up to her. um. that could sound dirty. perfect!)

18. Wiping black, smelly goo from his eyes, Santa!man peered at the note on the plant that had appeared on his desk. "It's called stinksap," he read. by camillafarfalla

19. 'It's my fault,' Neville said suddenly. Next to him, Draco flushed as his cauldron melted quietly into the desk. 'I...I was distracting him.' by switchknife

20. 'Fair's fair,' Neville snapped, his erection still ignored. 'Really?' Draco smirked, zipping himself up. 'Slytherins don't play fair, Longbottom.' by switchknife

21. neville's voice echoed across the stadium. "they're neck and neck and is it? yes! malfoy gets the snitch! congratulations, you sexy slytherin!" by jacito
