Huff. Puff.

Why did Astronomy have to take place as far away from his dorm as possible. Olly was way out of breath by the time he had managed to climb all those flights of stairs. Breathe in. Breathe out. His chest hurt, and it was hard to breathe. He decided that Astronomy was not one of his favorite subjects, purely for the fact that it caused him so much pain and discomfort just to get there. Ellery was lucky. She practically lived next door.

Oliver had read the rules, actually. So, as soon as he caught his breath enough to move again, he used the lint roller on his robes. But why would there be hair on it anyway? He didn't have a pet. And he didn't shed. But if that was the rule he wasn't going to argue, because it was a simple enough rule that protest was not necessary. The other rules, however, were weirder. Like they had to address the professor as admiral? Whatever.

"Good evening ad-AHHH!" Oliver started his greeting as he walked into the room, but was abruptly cut short due to fright. He was getting sucked into the sky! The first year flailed his arms in a panic for a few moments, before it became clear to him that he was not going to be sucked up into the sky and sly away. Apparently they were going to hold class from the air. Whatever. Olly simple shrugged and concentrated on figuring out how it worked and how best to maneuver himself. It was like swimming, but in the air.

"I can fly!" That was accompanied by his best impression of the Peter Pan noise, which was pretty impressive if he did say so himself. He eyed a desk, wondering just what would happen if he jumped off, when he remembered the other part of the rule. Greeting were to be accompanied by the live long and prosper sign. So Olly...tried. He could not make his fingers separate like that, no matter how hard he tried. So it ended up with three of his fingers sticking together and his pinky off to the side by itself. At least he gave it a valiant effort.

"I like your suit, admiral." He saluted the man, because it felt right. And no, Olly did not take a seat. He continued floating around the room, because that was way more fun.
