"Right... yes I totally believe you're not making it up." the Prefect nodded and placed a reassuring hand on the boy's shoulder... or maybe it was more of an arm-hug, because he's not that much taller anyway. "The main staircase here in Hogwarts..... its normal for them to move...." he broke the news gently "....think of it as an escalator-- except the whole thing moves and not the steps."

"Which in itself presents an extra challenge-- they pivot between floors, between other staircases, so you've really gotta observe and time it." Pause "Also sometimes it likes to mess with ya.... like if you're running a little late, it would suddenly move away. Or just stop mid swing. Or connect to another staircase instead of a floor. Or just stop on a blank wall." he added, a teasing grin started to tug at his lips. "So yeah... good luck with that Simon!" Pat pat griiiiiiin.

Simon just stared dumbfounded, whilst it seemed like Tenacius was teasing him, well at least it was a friendly tease. Simon felt like Tenacius was acting like an older brother. "YOU WHAT?!" Simon shrieked, as his older friend spoke. "YOUR JOKING RIGHT?" Simon sighed.

Simon was starting to wish that he was back at his primary school, seriously though why was this school so different, okay so they were here to learn magic, but when he had been told that, he thought they meant like Houdini, you know with the illusions and stuff like that.
