"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..
"WHAT?" Mo cupped a hand to his ear, but he couldn't tell at ALL what Ethan was saying to him. "HOLD ON." He pointed his wand at the door and cast, "
Finite Incantatem."
Almost immediately, the sound stopped and Mo sagged with relief. Now then... "What were you just saying? It's your turn now, you know?"
