Neville bent down and looked Albus straight in the eye. "Bravery isn't always easy but right there inside you even if it doesn't seem like it at first."

"I was like you when I was younger. I thought the hat should have put me in Hufflepuff."
Albus's eyes widened. "You?"
Neville nodded. "Yes. Sometimes we're put in the house that brings out the best in us, makes us realize what qualities we really have."
I imagine Abllus Severus would be like Neville was.
