"This is ...sick."
"I know." Inferi in various states of decay rattled and moaned as one.
"Are they-" Harry squinted, adjusting his glasses. "Severus, are they kicking?"
"Yes. If you continue to watch, they will even twirl."
A line of corpses stood on stage, new, fluffy dresses covering old rags. Harry supposed putting the clothes on them, even with magic, was about as far as Severus' costumer would go.
"You plan on letting Muggles in here?" An Inferi groaned and tried to walk off the stage, but a flick of Severus' wand forced it back in line.
"Of course! Americans celebrate Halloween with far more abandon than we ever did. They'll never guess our little 'zombie review' is real." Severus smirked, looking down at Harry with a predatory glint in his eyes that wasn't entirely fueled by the greed of having the hottest show on South Beach. "You shall be working the bar. I am not worried."
Harry rolled his eyes and leaned into Severus' side, arms crossed as he watched the row of Inferi, indeed, twirl and then bend over, shaking their skirts over their bloomer-covered bums.
"This is ...fantastic."
"Intensely so."
"But did you have to teach them the Can-Can?"
