Pairing: Julian Sark/Neville Longbottom

Why this must be read:

While I’m spending July pimping Alias fics, and while an Alias character *is* one-half of the crossover pairing, I love this fic for hackthis’s vision of Neville Longbottom. She has a real talent for Neville, older and harder, but still *Neville.*

While not a pairing I’d have considered, the interaction between Neville and Sark is a joy to read:

Neville firmly believes that ignorance is bliss; and sometimes it’s like life only started when he and Julian met, nothing else came before, which is just fine by them. The last thing Neville needs is to think about why he is where he is, and how he manages to pay for a top-floor flat in Maida Vale when he spends his days digging in the dirt and running a nursery.

Neville doesn’t want to talk about Harry. He doesn’t want to talk about Past Events.

This is why he’s chosen a Muggle as a lover.

It’s much easier to ignore the past when your lover doesn’t know what’s in it.
