Fics like no claw marks upon it

Harry moves through the dregs of the battle untouched, unseen by all but a few. But he isn’t here for them, no matter that their time has come, so he keeps walking. Glass cracks beneath the soles of his boots. Dust from shattered stone clings to black denim, stretches its pale fingers up past his knees as he kicks a stray piece of rubble. When he breathes in, he tastes smoke and chalk and blood-wet heat. He finds what he’s looking for half-buried under fallen brick, piled high with broken beams of wood. Blood has crusted over his left cheek. Against bloodshot sclera, the blue of his eyes is electric. His hair is stained with grey, from age or dust he doesn’t know. He’s so pale. Washed out. It’s wrong, seeing him like this. It hurts. Or: Death comes for Ron Granger-Weasley.
