This is inspired by Amira's Neville thread... what do you think of Luna's post-DH life? Here's what Jo said:

QUOTE
JKR: Luna became a very famous wizarding naturalist who discovered and classified many new species of animals (though, alas, she never did find a Crumple-Horned Snorkack and had, finally, to accept that her father might have made that one up). She ended up marrying (rather later than Harry & co) a fellow naturalist and grandson of the great Newt Scamander.


Which still leaves us a lot to fill in, really, doesn't it?

Unfortunately, yes, this leaves such a big opening for Luna's history. I suppose she spent a lot of time traveling, but I'm thinking up some ideas. I'll post them when my brain starts working again. grin.gif

I was thinking...so do Nargles actually exist? JK only mentions the Crumple-Horned Snorkack grin.gif

Yeah...I imagine that she goes and finds them all and catalogs them...perhaps writes a book! Perhaps Even More Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Luna Scamander. and maybe she could write another about strange plants and Neville can use it in his classroom!

I was kind of upset that Luna married this "Rolf" guy. I mean, if she'd married Dean or someone, I'd be okay with that. But Rolf? I don't know him, I don't approve of him. I mean, I'm sure he's a nice man but really I'd like to have met him. *sob* My Luna's run off and married a stranger! How could she do this to me?!

^ Oh, no, don't be sad! *hugs* We still have fanon, right? *gives cookie* To be honest, I was not really expecting Jo to even mention Neville/Luna again after she sunk us, so the "pull" comment was just a nice bonus.

Luna and Rolf get a divorce and Luna realizes it's Neville she really loves!

Poor Rolf! *hugs him* Can't Neville and Luna date, and then break up amicably, and then she marries Rolf? I mean, she has her whole life ahead of her... and even though it's sad to think about, maybe they break up because it's too hard living so far apart? I should think they'd still be friends afterwards.

*deludes herself*

But then who would Neville end up? Some random girl we've never met? I do not approve. I'm very against Rolf. I wouldn't care if it was someone we knew... I mean, even someone random like Justin Finch-Fletchley. I feel like she just ran off and eloped with a stranger....

Yeah, I do know what you mean. And Rolf is definitely sort of... out of the left field nervous.gif But I can somehow see Luna marrying someone we don't know, as much as I wish it was Neville. And since we can do whatever we like in fanon, I'm really okay about canon grin.gif In fact, like I said, I think we're actually in a better place than we were before, since even though Neville and Luna didn't get together, she does seem to say that they could work! (Which we knew, but now Jo says they could, too! Even after she sunk us! Yay!)

I have no idea about Neville, though. I always kind of saw him with Parvati or Susan Bones (in canon)... but, um, let's take this one to Neville's thread, 'kay? *is hopeless*

It ruined my whole day when I read about her marrying that random Rolf guy. I mean, what the heck? o_0 Why even say it? It was just a bit cruel, from my view. I think the thing that crushed me the most was that first post-DH interview where she sort of gave us hope (How she felt 'a bit of a pull between them' etc).... and then killed it. kthx, JKR. sad.gif

But oh well, it didn't officially happen in the books. I can ignore it. >>

Okay, this is really random, but... Does Luna strike any of you guys as artsy? I mean, she made that lion head hat and she painted her ceiling... I think Harry said they were lifelike but not moving like wizard paintings. Anyway, she still seems kind of skilled in that area, you know?
