Astronomy time again!

Ella had heard about the goblins goblin-napping their telescopes and the blonde honestly expected to walk in and find a man!wibbling Airey. To her surprise, she found a dancing Airey instead. Well this was interesting!

"Nice moves, Professor!" BEAM. "And nice to see you." And brrrrr. It was a bit chilly up here, yeah? Yeah.

The sixteen year old watched for a minute or two, fighting the urge to laugh, before settling down in a seat towards the front.

Astronomy, astronomy. The Gryffindor yawned as she walked towards the classroom, pinching her cheek to wake herself up. She didn't know how people stayed up late but Melanie was quite sleepy despite it not even being her bedtime yet. The sixth year stood outside the classroom, making sure she was free of lint and dust then smoothed her uniform out. She also checked her bag to make sure any food she had stayed in her bag because well... reasons.

She entered the classroom and then stopped. She checked her watch to make sure she was there at the correct time. Was the professor dancing? Was he humming? Maybe Melanie was so tired, she was dreaming or seeing things. She gave herself a little pinch. "Ow," Melanie muttered. Nope. Not dreaming. "Hello Professor," Melanie said slowly.

Or was that not the professor? Melanie slid into a seat slowly, observing the professor. Moonwalk. That was very familiar. Wasn't it done by that dead famous person? An old tune popped up into Melanie's head as she hummed 'Billie Jean', waiting for class to start.

WOOT! Astronomy class!!! Lex liked this class for several reasons, one being the Professor, another being black holes and shiny stars. Really the subject had always interested her so she was VERY happy to be bouncing her way into the classroo--

STOP!!! Lint roller! Lex back tracked from the room and got her robes nicely lint free for the sake of the Professor. Lint wasn't a problem for her but it bothered him so she'd humour him...besides...she didn't fancy losing 5 points unnecessarily. Like...have you seen the hourglasses?? Yeah they looked pathetic now without the gems but more importantly Gryffindor was in last.

Then again...they were already losing so why not?

But no, she lint rolled her robes then skipped in. Oooooooo, upon seeing the dancing Professor she drifted closer, grin positioned on her face. "Are we having a dance class Professor??" She asked, trying her best to mimic the man's moves.

Dancing, NEAT!

Don't look down. Pretty much Ascanius' mantara whenever he went up to this ruddy classroom for reasons. Like c'mon, really? Why did it have to be SO high, you know? Stupid.

Anyway, he went into the classroom... eyed the Professor who was a tad... FEMININE, no.... and said, "Professor." And then he sat.

Kace was happy to be going to another Astronomy Class. This class was his favorite by far. He had an interest in Astronomy. He liked learning about the planets and the stars. As Kace made his way to the room, he noticed the Professor dancing...? Kace giggled and was watching him. He seemed like he was having fun.

Kace put down his book bag and supplies on his desk, he liked to sit in the second row so he can focus his attention on the lesson. After he put them down, he went to dance with the professor. "Hello Professor, mind if i cut in?" he asked. He even brought some hip-hop moves of his own. What people didn't know is he likes to dance in his free time.

Nigel was still thinking about those awesome identification Flamsteed ask of him during the night in the observatory. Nigel kind of wanted one. But did not want to bother the Headmistress. She had other issues to deal with. That were much more important.

He walked into the tower and saw an odd sight. He had now idea why Flamsteed was dancing and did not really want to know. He doubted it had anything to do with astronomy. But what did he know. It was a tad bit weird. Nigel was not a dancer so he was just going to take a seat after greeting him. "Hello Professor Flamsteed".

It was depressing to see these bare spots all over the school, and Mo eyed the places where telescopes had once happily occupied space with sad eyes. He was not one who handled change very well, after all. He slumped into his seat and pulled his robes closer around his body to stave off the chill.

"Good day, Professor. Should we all dance to keep warm?" As in... COULD THEY? He sort of figured that would help his mood tremendously.

Woooo! Best class and best professor ever! Nashville had to bring Professor Flamsteed his baked goods pretty soon. He had been baking so much lately and not just for himself but of course for other people but now back to the class.

Astronomy time! It was his favorite class here or in general but there were so other awesome classes as well and he loved them too but this professor had to be his favorite by far. He was just so cool.

It was cold. O____________O Why was it cold? Nashville shrugged, he needed the cold air. He liked it too but why was it cold in here?

"'Ello, Professor Flamsteed."

Minerva was grumpy.. YES grumpy. She had just had the evening from well down there and now she was headed to the class with the person she found out was in charge of the reason her evening was so horrible.

Walking into the class she stopped and stared.. What on earth was he doing... She just shook her head and couldn't help but smile, but just a little bit, she was still very much so angry at him. First the sneezing and now this other prank. Lafay threaten to expel her. EXPEL.. Minerva felt faint just thinking about it. Now she knew that wasn't his fault per say, Lafay was the one wanting to throw her under the bus the minute Firth showed up, but still... The ID thing.. She grumbled to herself and then tried to give at least a polite smile, "Hello Professor"

Turning she quickly found a seat and sat down pulling out her parchment and quill. She sat quietly looking at the desk and waiting for class to begin.

She had her own personal lint brush in hand – and she was happy about that. Heck she was running it up and down her skirt, sweater, extra warm cloak…and still felt cold. Shivering slightly she walked over to the semi circle of chairs and walked around them trying to find the warmest spot.

“Its kind of c-cold” she didn’t really like the cold. Not all that much really – so she was shivering, quivering, and her teeth were chattering in the cold. “a-a-accio mittens” and she did she summoned her gloves – the ones that had the finger-less-awesomness. And they had a little flap to cover them. So she put them on with her robes, and extra cloak, and de-linted them as well before awkwardly taking a seat.

It was hard to sit without slipping about on the chair when you were so bundled up.

He delinted at the door and went on in. No big deal. Unlike some people he'd taken into account the location of the class and had gone for a couple extra layers so he was nice and toasty and warm. You kinda had to be proactive about that sort of thing when you were skinny since it was hard to keep warm on your own account.

West looked around for a seat and deposited himself in the one next to Ascanius.

He didn't say stuff to the professor, but did give him a man!nod. There were LOADS of words in a man!nod.

Eliza was in another good mood as she made her way up to the astronomy tower. Despite it being cold and despite her having tons of homework to do AND tons of Christmas presents to start thinking about making, she was feeling pretty stress free.

She stopped at the door to use the lint roller, per usual, and cleaned herself off. She knew there wasn't any lint on her anyway since she'd gotten into the habit of cleaning her clothes with a spell before class anyway, but she did it anyway because she knew it made Airey happy for some reason. And whatever made people happy, those were things she was willing to do. Usually.

"Hello Professor!" she said with a laugh as she watched him dancing. There were a few others shaking their tails feathers a bit too, so she rocked back, bouncing slightly from one leg to another. She wasn't in full dance mode though. Full dancing required things like sunshine and open fields and ribbons and flowers and a nice breeze and good music or something.

Delinting done (rather hesitantly on her leather jacket, for reasons) Sky stepped into the classroom.....

o___O

Was the professor.....dancing?! Really?! After the goblins had stolen, well, almost everything?! Had someone slipped him an extra strength cheering potion? The Defense professor, perhaps? She had heard that the two were in a rather tense prank war. And that that was how he'd ended up with itching powder in his suit during the last lesson. Shaking off the curiousness of the scene, she found herself a seat, her bag again taking it's place beside her feet. "Hello, professor." And no dancing for her, thanks. And no cleaning either, please.

Jory made sure he was lint free before entering the Astronomy classroom. Another lesson! He could hardly wait for it to get started.He looked around for Professor Airey. "Hi, Professor,'' he said. "Nice moves!'' Jory grinned.

The room looked so weird with the missing telescopes. The Puffer disliked the goblins even though he knew they were only doing their jobs. He took a seat at one of the desks.

Was this a dance class or...?

Having de-linted himself, Alec was sort of standing at the doorway, blinking around the classroom. He was sure he had come up to Astronomy. Really sure! Except... Astro Man seemed to be moonwalking at the front of the classroom. And, if Alec listened quite closely, he was sure he could hear some sort of tune being hummed.

Who knew that the Professor had moves.

"Hello Professor!" GRIN. "Keep it up!" ... The moves that is. Also, was it just him or was it... cold up here? Like really cold. Did this mean snow? Did this mean Christmas too? ... One thing it hopefully didn't mean was no ice cream, yeah? He could... brave the cold of that too. Anything for ice cream. Especially the ice cream down in the kitchens.

And speaking of ice cream -- it sort of linked, yeah? -- Alec headed over towards a certain blonde haired girl and sat down next to her. "Hey Ells!" GRIN. He placed his bag down on his lap and started taking out his things. Once that was done, his bag was dropped and kicked until it was safely under his desk. He sat back and grinned at Flamsteed and his dance troupe. This was... an interesting way to start the lesson.

Mika glanced up when she heard West sitting down not too far off from her. She shouldn't have though. Because that slight movement had made her propel out of the seat and onto the ground in front of it. She did glance up at Professor Flamsteed and laughed.

“Hello Pr-professor” she stammered out still shivering. What was that warming charm again? Because they needed to cast it in the classroom and warm things up, when she glanced over to West though she did laugh. “I see you went for the same idea as me…bundling-up” she chuckled a bit as she got back into her seat. Since both of them were on the skinny-small side of the spectrum.

Clap clap clap. Clapclapclapclap for the moonwalk. Mhmm.

"Helluuurrr, Professor Flamsteed." The brunette greeted the man with a shiver. Was it cold in here? Yes, it was. And it was a rather lonely classroom now too, with all the telescopes gone and all. But with Professor Flamsteed's dancing of a welcome for that lesson, everything didn't seem too heavy. Well, except for the fever she was still nursing. But all good. She wasn't going to faint because of it or anything.

Beezus slumped into a seat and waited for her other peers to show up. Or you know....someone in particular.

Rocking his head back and forth a bit, Airey paused when he heard Miss Ella enter the classroom. "Good evening, Miss Ella," he grinned. "Ah, thank you I do enjoy the occasional dance here and there."

"Alright there, Miss Sung?" he asked, failing to notice that the girl had pinch herself for...whatever reason.

Moonwalking his way to the right and right past Miss Cambridge, he flashed the girl a small smile. "Not exactly," he chuckled. Hard to mix astronomy with dance unless it was some obscure form of that subject that Callista teaches. "Just felt like dancing."

"Evening, Mr. Stark," he greeted the boy as he passed.

Oooooooooooooooh nice moves young Hufflepuff. "EXCELLENT!" he applauded. Always nice to see a fellow enthusiast. "Thank you for that, Mr. Lecium."

AH! He forgot to put the lint roller is not a comb sign out again! Just in case the young man had forgotten. Seemed he hadn't though, so that was good. "Evening," he smiled. "Only if you want to. Hard to stay watm in such an open classroom after all."

Oh dear. Were that back to square one? Airey had been under the impression that after her visit to his office that she had a more positive outlook about attending Astronomy. "Evening, Miss Wheatborn." Awkward pause in mid-robot. "Nice to see you."

And now the awkward robot was going to awkward moonwalk right over this way....

Someone was bundled up quite a bit. "Evening, Miss Johanson. No dancing to keep warm for you I reckon then, eh?"

They would be up and walking around the classroom soon anyway. Well, once they got past the theoretical portion that is.

Ah. Mr. Odessa. Airey felt a heartstring tug whenever he saw the boy. A heartstring that he wasn't exactly aware of having actually. He returned the man!nod to the Slytherin. Yep. Understood. Flamsteed out.

"Evening, Miss Dawnsel," he grinned while once again returning to his original moonwalk. "Tough luck in Gobstones." But there was always next time. Unless it was against Gryffindor and then, well, a repeat would be alright.

Ah! The boy who had bested Medea. An expression that was some odd combination of a smile and a smirk and a stink eye flashed across his cheery features. The man hated losing - even if it was just a student versus staff match. "Hello there, Mr. Summers," he said. "I SHALL!"

Because dancing was FUN and like exercise and exercise releases endorphins and endorphins make people happy! Maybe he should make everyone get up and dance... Hmmmmm.....

Beezus slumped into a seat and waited for her other peers to show up. Or you know....someone in particular.

Moonwalking this aways over towards the Ravenclaw prefect, he gave the girl a big smile for her applause. "You ought to do some yourself, Miss Castell, if you are feeling a bit chilled." Couldn't see the stars if everything was closed up.

Moonwalking and roboting back to the center and stopping in front of the blackboard, he checked his sundial and then glanced towards the open door. "We'll wait just a few more minutes before beginning."

It was lucky that the Flamster had this lint roller at the front of the class really, because Michael's robes were covered in lint not to mention fur from his pet ferret. There was also a few spots of mud as well which he knew the lint roller was not going to get off but eh, he was going to try anyway.

And while he was there, Michael figured he might as well doing his hair as well. He was sure that there was probably some grass and leaves in it. One he was finished lint rolling himself, he turned to see that the Professor was dancing and a grin split across his face.

"Yo Professor." The first year made his way over to the man. "You excited about Gryffindor being in the lead too." Not that earning points was high on his priority on his list, but it felt pretty good to see the Lions in first place. So he did a happy little shuffle.

Momd over matter, mind over matter, mind over matter, Sarah kept on repeating to herself in her head. you are not cold, you are not cold she thought as well. It seemed to be working as although Sarah's fingers had a purplish tinge she was not feeling cold (nor could she feel her fingers). Her cheeks were numb as well so it was hard for her to force a smile, yet that smile came naturally as she walked in and saw the professor dancing.

"Hi Professor. Having a great day, Professor?" she chirped. "Thank you for smiling, by the way. The warmth of a persons smile not only mellts the frostness of ones heart yet also the room". That was the most normal thing to say. She had finally caved into her fathers constant reminders over owl post to start wearing spencers already, as it was cold enough. Yet it was not before he threatened to send her a howler did Sarah acede to his request. She was warm in every part of her body except her nose, ears, fingers and toes - not feeling them anyway it did not make a idfference yet she had to spend time fumbling with the delinter as her fingers were too numb. On days like these she wished she had extra fat reserves - for insulation. She wanted to join in the dance yet had to sit down as her feet were hurting her - trying to fit feet encased with 3 pairs of socks in a pair of shoes intended for Sarah's narrow feet was a painful experience.

She wondered what they were doing that day. She looked aorund and noticed that those dreadful romour was true and the telescopes were gone Sarah wondered if they would spend that lesson making more. That would be cool

Natalie was actually excited for the lesson. She didn't mind the cold, as the climate in her hometown is pretty much the same. Her Hufflepuff scarf dances as she skipped inside the tower, and her cheeks are reddened as a result to the cold. It does that, a lot.

She figured that everybody else came in to instantly see the professor dancing around in front of the room. Moonwalk. Astronomy. Natalie quickly noted the pun that has started to form inside her head.

"Good day, err, night, Professor," she corrected herself. "I've never seen an astronomy professor doing moonwalks." Smiling and feeling content, she then sat on a desk and put her satchel on her lap, waiting for the lesson to begin.

Theo was actually awake today, but he wasn't sure how long that would last, especially when it was time for Astronomy. Booooooore. He entered the room and took a seat straight away. He ignored the professor's dancing because it was annoying. That guy was so weird.

"Hi, Professor." He said, only because that was what a Slytherin would do, as Lafay would say. He had to get off that list. Theo wondered if they'd be doing more cleaning spells today, because he did actually enjoy the hoovering one.

Astronomy again. Heh.

There was a reason she was here this time, but she refused to ever admit it out aloud and no it was not that she all of a sudden liked astronomy but Airey. He was amusing, WEIRD as ANYTHING but amusing and in some odd way entertaining to be taught by.

With a more positive attitude towards astro then before the Hufflepuff entered.

MELLOW. NO. JUST NO. SHE WAS TRAUMATIZED OKAY?

Moonwalk. STARE. "Um...Professor." She gave him a nod in greeting then looked away from the traumatizing site. "At least there's no tutu." She murmured quietly then took a seat.

With his slytherin scarf wrapped around his neck, Daichi had his hands in his robe pockets while he climbed up the staircase in order to stay warm. As he reached the classroom, the Slytherin's first instinct was to search the lint roller but was surprised when he found none. Perhaps the Professor had finally gotten sane?

Eitherway, he entered the class just as the man was doing some kind of dance and one of his eyebrows raised perfectly. Remember the sane part? Yeah, he'd take that back... He had no idea what kind of dance the man was doing but he figured it wasn't that horrible. He himself could only do that chicken dance...but that rocked!

"...Evening Professor Flamsteed" he greeted the man slowly while his eyes gazed at his feet before he looked up. "Nice...dance, sir" mweh, might as well compliment him.

So..what were they learning today without any equipment? Yes, Daichi had seen the lack of telescopes and whatnot in the room.
