Frankie is an Auror because he does believe in what the Order and the Aurors stand for: justice. He just has sort of a cynical view of justice. He does not think justice is something attainable in their society. But he hopes. And he does what he can. He is very loyal to his family and to his family's friends- the Potters, the Lupins, the Weasleys, the Scamanders.
Frank is also an artist and musician. He dabbles in art for the fun of it- painting and sculpting as well as writing. But he plays guitar and sings at the Leaky Cauldron- which his mother is the landlady of. (It's in HP Wiki.) Frank tries to be humble and is typically very honest- it's almost painful for him to lie.

CHARACTER HISTORY
------------------------------------------------------------
Early Years: Before they had kids, Neville and Hannah enjoyed life together. They got married not a year after they graduated, and were quick to establish themselves. For a very long time, Neville worked as the Herbology professor and Hannah became the landlady at the Leaky Cauldron. The couple lived above the Cauldron for roughly eight years until Hannah became pregnant. They bought a nice two-story home in Godric's Hollow and then came Frank Percival Longbottom. He was named after the two heroes in Neville's life- Frank, for his father, Percival for Albus Dumbledore,who he considered the greatest wizard of all time. (He tried to name Frank, Drank Harry but his wife liked the classiness of the name Percival more.) When he was four, his sister, Alice Minerva Longbottom (named after his grandmother and his father's strictest but most influential professor) was born. He and Alice were incredibly close for their entire lives and lived relatively normal lives.
Hogwarts Years: Frank was sort of a favorite coming into Hogwarts, but his quiet nature made many professors lose interest in him, though they all did like him, he was never a favorite. He was known throughout the halls and people always seemed to have their breath held, waiting for him to reveal his potential, his greatness. That moment never really came. Expectations were lowered and he was regarded as a bright pupil. He, like his father, seemed more suited for Hufflepuff, but he had a sort of bravery in that he was not afraid to tell the truth and ensure justice was served. In about his third year his father quit as Herbology professor because he was tired of politics coming in the way of knowledge. He also chose to withdraw from the Order after several domestic problems due to it. However, he was quick to encourage Frank (in private) to become an Auror, join the Auror, and help the forces of good. Frank would never forget how upset his father was that he could not do his part. He decided he would do what he could for him and his father. In his fourth year or so, Frank picked ua guitar. In his fifth, he picked up a pen and classic books. In his sixth he picked up a paintbrush. From then on, he spent his years honing his artistic skills.
Adulthood: He got a job from his parents over the summers playing part time at the Leaky Cauldron. He kept this job after Hogwarts as well as beginning Auror training. He also spent a lot of time getting to know London's art and music community, hoping to succeed somewhere.
