[ It's funny, how one's perspective on the world changes when one has the power of portals. Nowhere is too far, nothing is off limits. Silly concepts like space and gravity and the time it takes to go from one place to the other with your boring feet simply do not apply.
Rupert sees the red-headed girl's perilous wobble and in an instant he knows what's about to happen. And were he some mere mortal then what happens next would be impossible! But luckily for everyone involved, Rupert is not a mere mortal. He's a charming, dashing, heroic imPort with the power to literally sweep red-headed girls off their feet an escalator with a well-timed portal.
The noise is awful - a physically sickening noise of tearing fabric as Rupert quickly wrenches away a layer of reality, creating a neat little space in mid-air that's just about big enough to be able to lean in and catch Cecelia in a firm embrace before she hits the rest of the escalator steps. The momentum sends them both barreling back in to his side of the portal, landing them in a tangle in a rack of fancy coats. A softer landing than an escalator, at least. ]
