In which all is revealed

Reveals are up for [livejournal.com profile] hp_holidaygen so I can now post this here. This was written for [livejournal.com profile] aigooism who describes herself as "a very, very picky recipient" which I admit made me a tad apprehensive, but happily it seems to have met her exacting standards. Draco, Luna and Neville are characters that I don't normally write, so it was a lot of fun to take them out for a drive. In addition to the characters, special requests in the prompt included English lit, classical music, character growth and mentor/mentee relationship, all of which fell into place surprisingly easily. (The only one I couldn't work in was "cellos," but one can always imagine them as part of the music!)

The only change I'd make if I had it to do over again would probably be to alter the final scene so that Dumbledore wasn't involved. Prof. McGonagall is a great teacher and I'm quite sure that she'd have been able to set this up without his help. Then again, Albus has always been a meddler behind-the-scenes...
