Having read two very epic Harry Potter fics in the last two days

I find myself remembering unfinished stories that I really, really liked writing. One included Percy as Potions Master and Snape being made DADA, and then Percy having to borrow books, and it's post-war and sad [I killed both twins, instead of just one], and now I wish I still had the hand-written copy somewhere, because I don't know if I can get the atmosphere from scratch.

Also, what are your thoughts on Neville/Snape? Especially given Neville's leadership and general badassery in book 7? I like to think that Neville retains his general badassery and could realize that Snape's bark only becomes a bite if you actually try to harm him. Yes? No?
