Sirius getting into Hogwarts PoA
I still don’t think I understand how Sirius managed to get into Hogwarts twice in the prisoner of Azkaban (when he slashed the fat lady’s portrait and when he slashed Ron’s curtains). Obviously he’s an animagj and transfigured himself to get past the dementors however once on the school grounds and inside the castle what did he do? Was there just a huge black dog bounding through the hallways of Hogwarts without anyone noticing? The first time was at the Halloween feast and the second in the middle of the night so maybe so but to then get away after the alarm had been raised? Wouldn’t portraits have seen either Sirius or Padfoot running through the castle? Sirius was using the passage under the whomping willow to reach Hogwarts but that just gets you on the grounds, not inside the castle. Anyways would love to hear thoughts
