Recipient: lolaraincoat, who has a very cool LJ name. Prompt: "Why," murmured Professor Binns, "is everybody always picking on me?" Word count: um... 100! Yes! Totally! (and not actually 230.) Rating: G. I'd say warning for character death but, you know... I intended originally to write something funny, but then I remembered I suck at writing humour, so this came out instead.
Professor Binns awoke, feeling an uncomfortable pressure on his chest. He was unsure of why but attributed it to another Monday morning facing his second year combined Slytherin/Gryffindor class. He prepared for class without thinking, looked at himself in the mirror without thinking, and took some moments of walking down the hallway without thinking before he realised that there had been no reflection in the mirror when he looked in.
Being stuck at work for an eternity is certainly one of my nightmares - I can't imagine how much worse it would be with teenagers involved. A great idea and a really sad concept.
