Airey was standing on top of the giant inflatable Twister game looking down at the Observatory and hardly believing that he had agreed to allow FOOD and DRINK in this sanctuary. It wasn't like the place was getting used properly anyway. Not with all the telescopes missing thanks to the goblins and Hogwarts' poor funding.
He didn't actually start playing the game the way it was supposed to be, not when it felt like a giant mattress under his feet. Giant mattress...bed...childhood memories wearing his cardboard-made space helmet...Oh yeah. He was TOTALLY going for an imaginary moonwalk - aka JUMPING TIME! It was nowhere near as enthralling as Mr. Tempus' pogo stick, but jumping in general was always fun.
In the middle of all his 'weeeeeeeeeeee's' and 'whoohoo's' came the voice of two students. "Helloooooooooooooo Miss Ella!" he waved just as he took another bounce. "I have not! But I bet I am doing it wr-----" And that was the sound of his feet coming out from under him and the astronomer falling on to his back. Hey, it sort of WAS like a mattress. Pretty comfy too. "Be sure to thank the rest of the staff when they arrive as well." Let that be a subliminal message of teamwork. TEAMWORK. Also know as what was going to help you lot get through the next round of tasks.
Oh. The Headmistress was here now. He should probably sit up, yes? "Evening, Headmistress," he greeted with a wave before turning back to the Hufflepuff Quidditch Captain. "Miss Ella, would you teach me how this game is played?" He had found it in Hogwarts storage and applied a few spells to make it inflatable.
