He pointed his wand at the bottom corner of the door and spoke clearly. "Intrudus Concutio." Carefully, Mo traced up one side, across the top, and down the other until the entire door frame had been be-spelled. And now... well, there was only ONE way to see if it had worked, right?
"Give the door a go," he grinned and bounced a bit on his feet.
Deep in thought about just how useful this charm really could be, Ethan nodded distractedly at Mo's suggestion and watched him get to work, tracing his wand along the door frame. Mhmm.. exactly as his mental image had played out.. surely that meant it worked? He'd find out in a minute..
"Here goes nothing," he grinned back at the younger boy and faced the door. He stepped forward, placed his hand on the doorknob, and slowly turned it before pushing it open. The wail of the alarm sounded as he stepped through and the Prefect instinctively threw his hands up over his ears..
"WELL DONE," he called out to Mo over the din as he turned back around through the doorway and he gave him a sort of thumbs up with one of the hands still at his ear. And now the other boy could end the charm to save Ethan's ears and he could have a go at the spell himself..
