Hehe. Coral took a seat on the stairs and wrapped her arms around the one of the banister supports, enjoying the ride. It was a strange sort of relaxing and it pleased her to take the time to appreciate its relaxing quality instead of getting annoyed by it's constant changes when she might have been in a rush.

She slid a little closer to the banister and leaned her head against it, as it slowed into place.

Hallie stood with her ankles touching, hand placed gracefully on the railing as she bent her spine backwards to look up at all the moving pieces above them. "It's amazing, isn't it?" she said loudly enough to make an echo. It gave her chills, and she allowed herself to bounce giddily for a moment. She loved old things and magic and old magic, and these stairs were magnificent. An extremely clever system, as well, if she might add. She'd probably spend days here making charts of the movements for fun.

She stood beside her sister and put both hands on the banister now, leaning over timidly like it was the side of Titanic leaving harbor ~~with no knowledge of the impending iceberg.~~ Hallie took note that this will also be a lovely place to pretend she is aboard an early 20th century passenger liner. The 1910s were her favorite time period, aesthetically speaking.

Hallie curled her hair behind her ear with her be-gloved fingers and looked down at Coral, smiling at her contentment. She let her grip tighten to the banister and watched her sister protectively as the stairs slid into place, expecting much more of a shake than they got. But she hadn't lost her balance and CB hadn't been thrown down the stairs, so it was fine. Hallie turns her head with her fingers curling hair behind the other ear and glanced up and down the stairs in both directions, wondering which way to go, but also wondering if any other students were going to come pass them by.
