Very nice. I like how one of the background characters gets brought to the forefront.

Love how just by making him smile you turned Greg Goyle from 'goon' to 'good guy'.

P.S. You deserve a big cookie for "Professor Grumpypants"  *Wonders who that might be*

Poor Goyle - but this is very sweet and refreshing! It put a smile on my face :) Although I must confess I find HG's "pet project" obsession a tad frightening, if not to say somewhat terrifying :). Goyle did seem to get more than he bargained for - I'm slightly apprehensive of what will come next! :))))

Awwww. :D

that's nice.  you made me have sympathy for him, when i've always thought him highly unlikeable, so good job!  :D

the sun is shining again!give a smile - get a smilePoor soulKind of you to have him sit down and take a closer look at him. And give Hermione a new project *lol*Isn't she a piece of gold.She really looks at the bottom of things.Oh, this feels good.And he does have potential, well, isn't this a bright day ahead?!Thanks for sharing!

The pairing is most unusual but I think I wouldn't mind reading their story. Excellent job as usual.

He he.  Very cute.

Awww ... he needs a social mentor, she needs a project ... symbiosis at its finest.  I do hope, though, that she knows what she is getting into.  It will take infinitely more yarn to knit for a dumb piece of muscle than for a house-elf. :)

Naw! Poor wee Greg.

Ah, how sweet. Just don't have him crushing over Hermione. She belongs to Severus! *grin* ^_^

A project! I wonder if he knows just how happy he made her. (Hopefully she won't knit him any hats). I got my first job ever because of my smile.

That took a lot of courage on his part. 

A perfect use of the prompt. Goyle is so underused, both in canon and in fanfic... It's wonderful to see him get a moment to shine.

Awww sweet.  Just the right amount of humor to keep it from going over the line to sickeningly sweet. Perfect. Enjoyed very much!

That definitely brought a smile to my face, thank you! But you also put thoughts of HG/GG into my mind.... ;).

A Hermione with a project is a happy Hermione, Greg just made her day:-))

How lucky for Gregory. I could certainly get to like him.

Aww... this is so sweet and gentle - perfect! Thanks for giving Goyle some attention and love - the big-hearted Gryffindor lioness is just the person to help him see more of himself than he knows is already there!

Good start, Greg! Once some people return his smile, the hunched shoulders will straighten by themselves. Well, almost. I agree that this could be the begnning of a longer story.

Loved it.. it would make the wonderful start of a longer story

:-)Says it all, doesn't it? Nice to see little glimpses of characters that we don't read about very often, especially from such a sympathetic viewpoint. And now I am smiling too, and I wasn't even there!

Oh, how sweet was that? (And how Hermione was Hermione?)

That is quite a make over to attempt Hermione, but I'm sure you will succeed, after all Greg has shown willing, and it will please Professor Grumpypants.
