A/N Hello again and welcome back! This chapter has been particularly difficult to write; darn writers block. Hopefully I can redeem my lack of update for such a long time by providing a new chapter for you. Neville makes an appearance this chapter, but before I start, I wanted to clear something up. I've had a few requests asking for character returns. I brought Voldie back because I had more plot ideas for him, but other than that I have no immediate plans for returning characters. If a character's return is essential to the plot, I'll definitely bring them back however.

Weaselette32: You know what's weird?

TheBoyWhoLived: What?

Weaselette32: We've been talking for seven chapters now, yet nothing seems to be happening!

RedHead65: Oh yeah, I hadn't noticed….

BookWorm101: I wonder if Voldemort will really try to hack into our emails.

TheBoyWhoLived: Nah, he won't. Even Voldemort's not that stupid.

Weaselette32: I don't know…. He did voluntarily share a seat with Ron….

RedHead65: Gin, please! I was trying to forget about that!

Weaselette32: Will people PLEASE stop calling me Gin! I am not an alcoholic beverage!

RedHead65: Hold your hippogriffs, GinNY, it's only a nickname.

BookWorm101: Wow.

TheBoyWhoLived: What?

BookWorm101: It's just that I never thought I'd live to see the day that Ronald Bilius Weasely avoided an argument!

RedHead65: And what's that supposed to mean?!

BookWorm101: Well, it's just that you tend to get a tad too fired up over the tiniest things.

RedHead65: WHAT???
TheBoyWhoLived: Oh great, another argument.

Weaselette32: Surely the readers are sick of this!

WhereIsMyToad: Oh, I doubt it. In fact, I was speaking with Hippolina the other day…

TheBoyWhoLived: And that's not weird at all…

WhereIsMyToad: … And she said that she's actually had a request for more Ron/Hermione bickering!

BookWorm101: Harry, aren't you even going to acknowledge the fact that Neville's just shown up?

TheBoyWhoLived: Oh, right. Sorry Neville. How are you?

WhereIsMyToad: Yes, I'm fine. Gran's unbearable, so I thought I'd come see if you lot were around. I'm at Dean's place, by the way.

Weaselette32: That's fair enough.

RedHead65: Er… Neville? Why is your display name, 'WhereIsMyToad'? We haven't seen Trevor mentioned in ages!

WhereIsMyToad: Well, the fact that I'm forever losing him has become a bit of a trademark. And besides, I've only just become a really important character, and I don't really become a hero until Deathly Hallows. (A/N This is set in the summer after 5th year, for those who hadn't guessed)

TheBoyWhoLives: You have a point there.

Weaselette32: Oh Neville, I almost forgot. I saw Lavender Brown in Diagon Alley on Tuesday, and she asked me to get you to owl her. Any idea what that's about?

WhereIsMyToad: No, none at all. Why would she want me to owl her, of all people?

TheBoyWhoLived: Neville, have you read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince?

WhereIsMyToad: No, I'm still on number 5. It's awfully interesting to read about our adventures from your perspective, Harry.
TheBoyWhoLived: I suppose so….

WhereIsMyToad: I never knew that Cho Chang hung around after the DA meeting, Harry….

TheBoyWhoLived: I…Er…Um… (loosens collar nervously)

Weaselette32: What do you mean, Neville?
TheBoyWhoLived: Nothing!!! She just stayed to help get the decorations down, that's all.

Weaselette32: Sure she did…..

TheBoyWhoLived: (gulp)

WhereIsMyToad: Anyway, why did you want to know if I've read Half Blood Prince?

BookWorm101: I have my suspicions… (glares at Ron)

RedHead65: Will someone PLEASE tell me what's going on here?!
BookWorm101: No.

Weaselette32: If you want to know, I suggest you read the book, Ron.

RedHead65: But I hate reading….

TheBoyWhoLived: Really? Because I saw some interesting 'reading material' under your four-poster last term…

Weaselette32: Oh really? Thank you very much Harry!

RedHead65: Why, hippolina, WHY?!?!?!

BookWorm101: I am really starting to worry about our sanity. I mean, Harry's dad had an awkward moment with a panda, Voldemort and Ron shared a seat, and the author of this fic has joined the story!

WhereIsMyToad: What?? Voldemort and Ron shared a seat?!?!
RedHead65: Gee, thanks a bunch Hermione.

BookWorm101: You're welcome.

TheBoyWhoLived: Is it just me, or do you think that this insanity is only the beginning?

Weaselette32: I'm afraid you're probably right, Harry. I'm scared too.

A/N Due to popular demand, yes, I will be including Lucius Malfoy in the next chapter. I hadn't planned on it, but it's hard to say no when 15 reviewers beg you to include him. I have a vague idea on what I shall do next chapter, but if anyone has any ideas on a Lucuis-related display name, please let me know. I'm thinking something to do with his hair… coz he does have awesome hair. Anyway, let me know. And please keep reviewing, I love checking my emails and finding reviews there!
