What happened in the intervening nineteen years? Notice that there’s no reference to professions?

Neville is Professor of Herbology at Hogwarts. I want him to be married to Luna, and I want them to dance. A lot.

Except for Neville, who is Professor Longbottom, teaching Herbology; fitting.

Other than the Herbology professor, yes, I noticed that.
Actually, as soon as I saw "nineteen years later", I said, "Uh-oh". When something covers time so slowly (one book = one year) and then makes a bigggg jump, I get a little nervous. (Visions of Battlestar Galactica came to mind, actually.)

I actually put the book down, finished some chores and came back to it. Needed time to prepare.
I probably would've liked an epilogue that took place either 3-6 months later or maybe 5 years later. 19? Way too far off.

And, hey, how come the last word of the book wasn't "Scar"? Changed her mind, eh?
