drabble: exanimate - ron & hermione

[exanimate] - ron & hermione
and here i had thought i would do a ghost for this one. surprise. part of dorrito's every flavour mood beans.

She's not dead, Ron thinks over and over. Not dead. Petrified. He's never seen a dead person before, but he's pretty sure there's not a lot of difference. The stillness terrifies him, the movements you never notice until they are gone. Her eyes are open wide but there is nothing behind them and this is what disturbs him the most. There are no thoughts, no solutions, no know-it-all explanations left hanging half-formed, their questions half-answered as she dashes to the library.

In their room, Ron turns to Harry. They must solve it all the faster now.
