Drabble following on from Drowning.
Stasis
Every day Danny crosses over from the world of the living to the world of… whatever it is that Steve's doing now.
Outside the world is full of sunshine and color and life: busy people with work to do and places to go; an endless, vital rush of traffic and chatter and noise; Grace falling for some boy band and giving Danny even more grey hairs.
Inside it's all muted shades and hushed sounds; a stillness that's not peace; and Steve lying silent and unmoving in a hospital bed.
Outside, life rolls on, everything changes, and Steve's getting left behind.
