But it was the first that really caught his attention, "You want..me...to be Gryffindor's Head of House?" he asked, disbelief spreading across his features, "But..but," and Neville found himself speechless for a moment, unable to articulate at first.
"Yes," he blurted out, and then he composed himself, "Of course my answer is yes. I'd be happy to take the position," and some shadow flickered over his face, "But there have been issues? Should I be worried? About any students in particular? Say, like the twins were?" he asked, starting to frown slightly as he thought about how much trouble they all had given Snape, in the day. But much of that resistance had been completely justified; they were at war, and doing what they could to help Harry, Ron and Hermione and fight against Voldemort. Why there might be House unrest was a bit puzzling to Neville.
"What kind of problems have arisen lately? I think I should know a bit about what I am getting into," and he paused and then said, with growing confidence, "So it can be addressed from day one of term."
