[Action: in front of 1486 Kramden]

[Neville is checking the post, not quite sure what will show up this time.

He opens the package and just stares.

Candy wrappers. Droobles gum.

The ones he saved from his mum.

All he can do is stare.]

[Action: Park]

[Neville is bound and determined to be as useful as he can. Things are getting worse. So he's practicing as many charms as he can think of.]

There has to be something else.

It was a volcano, in the end. We had to run for it. I was able to help a bit but I can't help thinking I could have done more.

"Mnnn..." Well. "A volcano is an incredibly powerful force of nature- there is nothing which can stop such an act once it has started. Do not feel as though you did not do all you could; I am sure that whatever you did helped more than enough."

I know I couldn't stop it. But... I have magic, I should use it to help people here. Lots of the people here don't.

"You do not feel that what you know can help?"

[infourbooks]

I think it can... that's why I'm practicing. ANd trying to think of things now, not when everything's falling apart.

"Aaaah..." Nodding to himself a bit now. "I see- perhaps it would help to speak potential strategies aloud?" he offers. "I find that a second opinion often offers fresh advice upon a situation, myself."

I managed to move some oft he rocks out of the way, so that was something. I wonder if there's a way to use shrinking charms...

"Mmm... I suppose it would depend upon the limit of the charm in question."
