Everything returned to normal, everything fell silent and dropped to the ground, everything immovable once again. Thank goodness, Noah thought, clearing his throat. He tried to say something but found that his voice was still inaudible.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

He sighed deeply. He mouthed "sonorous" while pointing his wand at himself, but it didn't help bring his voice back. Did he have to actually say it? It should have worked! He sighed again and shoved his wand in his pocket, shrugging. He'd just have to start learning sign language.

He mouthed "this stinks" to no one in particular.
