Not to mention that Pebbles could have cracked, and then she would have to dispose of the pet rock for good. Then there were too many witnesses. Benny was one of her best friends, and she was sure he would cover her, but the elf... what was she supposed to do? Her thoughts were getting too intense. Did other people think like this?
Deciding that it was too hard to keep up the pace with a boy that not only was older and taller, had way longer legs than her, she let go of his arm. Thinking, running, and clinging was too much, okay? What did people expect from her? There was a reason why she wasn't in Ravenclaw. That was no mistake.
They were getting closer which meant it was an appropriate time to start hollering at the top of her lungs. "Prooooofessssorrrrr..."
Gasp. She was out of breath. Too many tacos lately. Merlin. She hadn't put on any weight, but the dense taco meat was really doing a number on her breathing right now. Or it could be that she just went up a million stairs at break neck speed.
They were there. His office was in sight. She ran straight to the door without taking any notice of whether or not there were other people there. BANG, BANG, BANG.
Come onnnn... she really didn't want to just barge it, but she was thinking about it. "Professor head of house, sir"
AJ clutched her side and sucked in air. Now that she had stopped completely, she was realizing that she was about to die. That was a bit dramatic, but the girl wouldn't say no to some water. Quote:

Thankfully she eventually did on her own accord, yet still the older lion was nearly at her heels.
He winched as AJ started yelling to get the professor's attention. "Easy AJ...." Benny instructed, knowing they weren't even there at their destination yet. As excited as Flamsteed might be for the return of his beloved Pebbles, that didn't mean he was necessarily going to be pleased with a student, especially one of his house, hollering at the top of her lungs. Besides, she was clearly out of breath, at least more than he himself was.
And then once they were in sight the loud banging knock was the next choice of making noise for the younger lion. The sixth year couldn't help but just shake his head as he worked on recovering from his own exertion. There really was too many stairs in the castle and they had only had to travel from the fourth floor to the towers. More yelling and Benny moved beside AJ once the girl seemed to faulter. "Relax...I think if he's in, he's heard you," he assured his friend, tentatively rubbing her back in hopes to help her recover herself. Sweet solstice. What in Orion's belt was all THAT about?
Rubbing his temples and setting his research to the side on his desk, the Astronomy professor made his way over to the door. He did wait a moment or two to see if there would be MORE banging so that no one would come tumbling into his office midswing or anything. Hearing nothing, he swung open the door and looked down upon the two students.
"Trying to break down my door?" he said, his tone completely unamused.
Don't abuse the door, kiddos. What had it ever done to you.
He hadn't had so much banging happen since Mr. Hirase. Quote:

Mhm.
So after making sure nobody else was around Maggie had placed her special Airey Flamsteed Mystery Box Deluxe onto on of the chairs outside the professor's office. With a sign that read, "For Professor Flamsteed" on the outside just to make sure. So that nobody else who happened to come across it would open it. This was for the professor and him alone. No one else was allowed to open it.
Which was also why Maggie was waiting around the corner, watching, to make sure of that.
She'd put lots of effort into making this box. Leaving his office some minutes later with star charts and a few other documents tucked under his arm, the Astronomy professor paused in his seating area to look over the chart and make sure that he had everything he needed and that his calculations were correct. Giving it all one last approving nod, he was just about to make his way to the Observatory when he noticed....the box.
Oh that was cruel. Cruel cruel cruel...
And he should have seen it coming. Just like him being a recepient of a Howler early in the term. When he gave open ended tasks like that...
But now it came to WHICH lesson did he want to instill upon whoever had left the box. However, seeing as he had (most likely) left a negative taste of potential and exploration in students' mouths after his lessons...there really was only one option.
Setting all his things down, he approached the box and peeked around to see if he could find where the student was hiding. Having an strong inkling as to their whereabouts, he lifted the lid off the box slowly...
