Pansy Parkinson was the last person Neville expected to find in the underbelly of the ministry archives. Neville Longbottom is the absolute last thing Pansy needs disrupting the secluded life she's carefully carved out for herself. Too bad for both of them, he's never been one to walk away from a flower in need. _____________________________ “Hello?” he called out, before knocking on the tightly shut door.

Here to see ah… the… well, I suppose the archivist?” There was the sound of a chair scraping against the floor and several objects being moved around. Then the door opened just a fraction. “You’re here about the Malfoy property records?” Asked a prim little voice from behind the barrier. “I am.” A pale, delicate hand slipped through the crack in the door and handed him a too-slim folder. He took note of the slender fingers that held the folder before the hand disappeared once more; they ended in pearlescent pink-tipped nails. Merlin, he really was a fool for pretty hands.
