Following the Ravenclaw, Callum noticed the trap doors upon the ceiling first and foremost, and he lifted a hand to point at the instructions. "There," he nodded, approaching them alongside Davie, and read them over with furrowed eyebrows. So they had to... open a trap door, go up and put on sticky shoes and gloves, snatch a flying box, bring it back down, open it, and open the box to get the letters that would lead them forward?

Cue another Gryffindor sigh. This was such a weird class. At least it was exclusively using alohomora, was it not? No more of the colloportus that had given him trouble from his understanding, so that was a relief, and he verbalized that. "I think I will be okay this time around." Meaning Davie did not have to worry about him as much and wait around for him, and Callum moved under a trap door with a smile. "Thanks for looking out for me, David." He meant it, too.

"Alohomora." With a slight swish and tap of his wand, the trap door above him opened, and Callum beamed. This spell was very good to him, and he only hoped charms would continue to be his strong suit in the future.

Ah, there they were. David moved a bit closer to the directions so he could read them, even WITH his glasses, and blinked a few times to make sure he understood them. He was already doubtful that a pair of gloves and some magical shoes would enable them to climb walls, but it wasn't a disbelieving kind of doubt. It was more of a 'what charm made these objects sticky' and 'can you teach us THAT spell' kind of doubt. He already knew the unlocking/locking ones. Now he wanted to learn the sticky ones!

So, about to move on with his friend, David blinked AGAIN when Callum suggested splitting up. "You sure?" he tested the water, really wanting to make sure Callum would not run from this room as well, because it would be much harder to go find him now. "Okay then, good luck! Have fun with it. And don't hesitate to poke me if you have any questions." Gosh, that sounded like something a professor would say... Davie liked it. He liked sounding like a professor. But, in the spirit of independent learning, he let Cal go and focused on his own trap door above him.

"Alohomora!" the second-year cast, taking a deep breath as he pointed his wand to the ceiling. Oh hey, it worked. He began to climb up into the ... space? the attic? the second room above this room? Interesting. Which part of Hogwarts WERE they in now? Unrestricted magical space? A room that wasn't really a room, but was created by the professor simply for the sake of learning?!

David was getting very curious to meet this man now. Very, very curious.
