That is if they would let him. Anyway back to why he was here because being a Gryffindor and well being him it sounded like a great idea to challenge Abra to whatever he wanted to do in this room. Rock Climbing, the ladder or the basketball court.
Anything
Just don't tell anyone he was really really bad at basketball.
Théo just stared at the rock climbing wall in wonder for a bit before asking Abra. "You think you can beat me to the top?"
Ok maybe he just really wanted to go rock climbing and not do it alone. Stood directly next to Théo (aka Tayo) was Abra (aka Abey). He, too, was staring up towards the top of the rock climbing cave with an expression on his face that was somewhere between thoughtfulness and determination. "Yes," he said in reply without putting much thought into it. "Absolutely." It wasn't really quite as straightforward as 'absolutely' because, while they were both reasonably athletic in terms of Quidditch, that didn't necessarily to translate to activities away from their brooms. Abra, for instance, couldn't stand running or jogging, and on the two occasions he had attempted to go out for a run, it had ended disastrously. He was also lacking in the strength and muscle department, BUT he was (to his utter chagrin, because IT USED TO BE THE OPPOSITE OF THIS) now much smaller than Théo. That meant he didn't have as long a reach as his friend did, but hopefully being smaller and therefore lighter would at least make up for that. "Absolutely," he said again, sounding much more sure of himself than he felt. Worth a try, right?
Abra shot Théo a side-glance that lasted about half a second, before suddenly, and without warning, he quickly counted them down with a "ThreetwooneGO!", already making a dash for the wall.
Listen. Any advantage was a good advantage, even if it was obtained with a sneaky tactic here and there.
