Several comfortable looking black leather sofa chairs await you in the small nook outside of Professor Flamsteed's office. The walls are bare save for a framed magazine cover and a large map on the wall opposite of the sofa chairs. Since the Astronomy professor keeps his door shut at all times, you will need to knock if you wish to speak with him. You could try to remove the protective charms placed on the door and break in, but that would not be very wise on your part as you would walk away with lime green eyebrows that won't fade for days and hair growing out of your ears down to the floor. While you wait to be invited in, why not read the latest issue of one of the many astronomy magazines stacked neatly on the wooden coffee table? StarDate Observer or Meteorite Mementos anyone?

OOC: Please post in this thread FIRST, by having your character knock on the door. When the professor is ready to invite you in, I will post here letting you know and then you can post in the office. You may RP with friends here, but please try to keep the chit chat to a minimum. Thank you!

Still kind of grumpy that his astrology sign didn't match up with Beautiful Bentley, Zander gave staring at the list a momentary break. It kind of broke his wittle heart. But alas, he didn't agree with this divination stuff anyways, or at least that's what he kept trying to tell himself. So really, it didn't totally matter anyways, right?

Kind of.

Either way, Zander had finally decided to suck it up and looked through the list for someone he could actually deliver the card to. There weren't any other Capricorn professors and his next sign was Sagittarius and... of course who else was a Sagittarius? None other than Professor Flailsteed. He was a nice man really, but the jumpy and flailing were a bit much... And overly theatrical if you ask Zander. Either way, the boy did admire that man's, er, passion for the subject.

So where in the world would that excited man be? ... Zander walked towards the office, putting a smile on his face. He didn't need the man to know that he was only his second choice. Heh. Awh, if only Bentley was a Sagittarius, too. Sigh. Walking into the waiting room he--

Sparkles... And Pink... Of course. Should he have even expected any less?

Airey actually wasn't in his office at the moment, instead spending his afternoon locked up in the astrophysics laboratory running all sorts of simulations and experiments to try and figure a few things out, but fell short each time. When science couldn't explain something it was maddening, you know?

Or was that just him?

"Mr. Adair, hello there," he said as he stepped into his seating area. "What can I do for you?"

While standing in the waiting area, Zander was starting to have second thoughts. Maybe he could just write the essay instead? Or maybe he could just give the card to Beautiful Bentley and lie. How was she supposed to know that they didn't have matching signs?

Okay. First off, there has to be something wonky about this divination stuff because there's NO WAY that he and Professor Beantley weren't meant to be. They were like a match made in heaven, which fully explained the fact that Beautiful Bentley was an angel. See, it made total sense. Now, if he could only get out of this pink sparkly mess before--

Oh. "Hi, Professor." Well... He had put all that effort into making the card... So he might as well deliver it... Even if he had wanted to make a delivery to someone else instead. Ahem. Either way, his card was a much more appropriate fit for Professor Flailsteed. It was most definitely designed just for the man himself. But, if Zander had known that the man lived in such a sparkly, pink office, he would've decorated the card much differently. Anyways.

"Well... For the divination homework... We had to find a Professor with a matching.... I mean uh, I have a card for you." Why was it always so hard trying to talk to professors? It could have been worse though... It could have been Bentley. Either way, Zander was kind of shuddering thinking about the embarrassing message he had left inside of the card. There'd be a whole lotta blushing if the man decided to read it right then and there. And with that thought, Zander slowly took the card out of his bag and extended it towards his Astronomy Professor. Hm. Wonder if the man had anything against all that Astrology stuff they were learning in divination?

SPOILER!!: The message inside the card!

SPOILER!!: The message inside the card!

Glancing around his seating area, the astronomer resolved that Javy and Piers were not going to man up and clean up the mess they had made, so he ought to just take care of it himself. Going to be finding glitter in between the seat cushions for years to come. He could feel it.

He was also wondering just what sort of astronomy related questions the Gryffindor could have for him, but then he was hit over the head with words that felt like a ton of bricks. "Div....ination?" he repeated through gritted teeth. Cassiopeia had set an assignment to bring him cards to...."Matching?" He looked the boy up and down before his blue eyes settled back on the card. The only thing matching about them was they were both Gryffindors.

Still very much confused, he accepted the card and turned it over in his hand, but did not yet open it. "I'm confused, what exactly is your assignment?" Spreading snaps through the written word? Still waiting for an response, the astronomer opened the card and read over the words within. "Well, this is very kind of you, Mr. Adair," he smiled as he closed the card once again. He liked the color too, red. Good strong color. "Thank you."

But why....and why him for a Divination assignment

ArianaBlack · 07-04-2014, 06:31 AM

SPOILER!!: I can already feel his frustration omg

Zander could almost feel annoyance slipping out of the man's gritted teeth. Oh no. The man taught Astronomy. They were learning Astrology signs. He may not be the smartest tool in the shed, but he sure knew that Flamsteed would not be happy about this. Uh oh. "Well we were supposed to share some sort of cheer or something..." he spokes slowly, trying to pick out his words extra carefully.

But there was no way he could avoid it. He had already slipped out the 'matching' word. Okay, deep breath then all at once. "Well we learned about our astrology signs and our sun house and mars house and we had to find the signs that we were compatible with and--" DEEP BREATH "I'm a capricorn, but my sun house is Sagittarius and that's supposed to mean that I have a deep emotional connection to Sagittariuses or something and anyways we had to make a card for someone we were compatible with and her list said that you-- ANOTHER HUGE INHALE "are a Sagittariususes-y?" Did that even make sense?

"So I had to make the card for you because we matched." Wait, did that make it sound like he didn't want to make the card for him? Which, he didn't. But Flamsteed wasn't supposed to know that. "I mean, I probably would've chosen you anyways, Professor!" Lie. It was supposed to be Bentley. Ahem. Can't believe Kevin got Bentley and he didn't. Hpmh. But he's not bitter or anything. Not at all. Heh.

"But if you ask me all that Astrology stuff is baloney and Astronomy is WAY better." Yeah. Nice save. Hopefully. He didn't even believe in that stuff. First off, his sun house had nothing to do with his actual personality so that was way off. AND, it had said that he wasn't compatible with Bentley, which is also WRONG. So yes.

The Astronomy is better part though, that was a lie. He didn't really care for either subject to be completely honest. He was more of a creatures man himself. But anything for the sake of not getting on his bad side. He already had Culloden against him, didn't need another one, you know?

sweetpinkpixie · 07-05-2014, 07:27 PM

SPOILER!!: I think he saved his behind a little XD

Share some cheer. Right. He had expected as much. But he still wasn't seeing the connection this had to the woman's subject. Or, well, he did see a connection, but he was choosing to live in ignorance at the moment. It was a happy place. An illogical place, but a happy place nonetheless.

But happy place was having its wall torn down by a wrecking ball in the form of..............................astrology.

Yeah....that vein in his forehead that had been somewhat pulsating before? It was going full speed ahead now and if things kept up he was sure he was going to get a migraine. He couldn't even speak at the moment and used his thumb and the two fingers adjacent to it to massage his forehead while he closed his eyes and bowed his head. Sweet solstice give him the strength to get through this discussion as professionally as wizardly possible....

But then it was as though the clouds parted and light shown down on the pair of them in the seating area, illuminating the pink glitter and causing the entire area to glow. Of course, this was all just in the man's imagination and not really happening. That would have been awkward, you know?

"My date of birth does fall between November 22 - December 21, which would make me a Sagittarius," he replied with nothing more than a curt nod of the head. But he really wanted to focus on the rest of what the young man said. Stepping forward confidently, the astronomer reached out and firmly pat the boy's shoulder as his lips curled into a comically large smile. "Your a fine young man, Mr. Adair," he said. PAT PAT PAT PAT.

Could he give the boy points for his words just now? He REALLY wanted to. REALLY.

"Make sure you put extra effort into your next astronomy homework, yeah?" Smirk.

ArianaBlack · 07-09-2014, 08:16 AM

SPOILER!!: So sorry for the wait!

Was it just Zander or was Flamsteed's forehead throbbing? Yeah it totally looked like something was going to pop out of there... Oh no. Maybe he had made the wrong decision. Should've stuck with the essay. It would've caused a lot less pain on both parties. Oops. But then, the man was starting to look a little better? Hallelujah! Sweet Merlin, Zander was about to start sweating through his robes. He had already managed to make his way through the sweater...

OH NO SPOKE TOO SOON.

The Gryffindor winced as Flamsteed drew his hand foreword. Oh no. He was expecting some sort of lecture, but never in his life would he had thought that a professor, no-Flamsteed, would result in the use of PHYSICAL TORTURE! .... Wait... Was the man... patting him? Oh. The Gryffindor slowly opened one eye, and then visibly eased up and opened his other eye as well. Oh. Patting. This wasn't that bad... Uncomfortable? Very. But painful? Not at all.

"Oh... Uh... Thank you, Professor?" Was it something he had said? Because really he was trying to save himself there and it looked like it may have actually worked? Maybe the day wasn't that bad after all! Had he finally done something right?!?! Extra effort into the astronomy homework? Huh? What was this guy talking about... But um... sure? "Uh, okay, will do Professor! Will do!"

Now that he had successfully handed the man a card without getting killed in the process, his task was done. Plus, he really needed to escape this uncomfortable patting thing. He was all patted out thank you very much. "I uh, well thanks Professor! I hope you liked the card and I guess I should get going?" Yes? "I know you're a pretty busy man and stuff..." And stuff?

sweetpinkpixie · 07-09-2014, 01:33 PM

SPOILER!!: it's totally okay <33

He should probably stop patting the boy's shoulder right now, right? Doing the same sort of approving gesture for too long took away from the genuine feeling behind the movement and was overall just awkward. So, hand retracting it was. Slowly. And then his hand was rubbing the back of his neck nervously. Righto.....

"Ah, one last thing, Mr. Adair," he said before the boy entirely took off. He was an behavioral observer, so he had picked up a thing or two over the course of the conversation. Mainly that there was a 95% probability that the Gryffindor had been telling a white lie about the astronomer being his first choice anyway. It was that probably that had been not-so-casually tossed in to the sentence, you know? "Make sure you also give one of those cards to someone you want to and not just because some chart tells you to," he said in a low voice, giving his nose a firm tap with his index finger after the last word.

ArianaBlack · 07-09-2014, 06:03 PM

SPOILER!!: You're the best *glomps*

The Gryffindor was just about ready to leave when... one last thing? Uh oh. Was Professor Flamsteed getting ready to explode about the Astrology thing? Had he changed his mind? Was Zander no longer a fine young man? Oh. The Gryffindor's hand shot up to his hair as a little blushed pink made it's way unto his cheeks. Had Flamsteed realized that he had wanted to deliver the card to Beautiful Bentley? Oops. He really needed to work on these acting skills and such. He was starting to become transparent.

"Oh, yes Sir, thank you Sir," Actually this guy wasn't all that bad. Sure, he jumped and pranced and flailed around in class... But maybe that was just the guy's passion doing all the dancing? Zander turned around to leave, but then stopped before he even took a step forward. "But Professor, I'm glad I made this one for you," Sure he may have been more than a little peeved about not being compatible with Bentley, but delivering the card to the Astronomy Professor wasn't all too bad. Actually, it helped Zander appreciate the guy a bit more. Maybe it had to do with this last thing that Flamsteed had said? Just the fact that the man had acknowledged Zander's actual feelings, it really meant a lot.

sweetpinkpixie · 07-10-2014, 06:49 AM

SPOILER!!: no YOU are <333

Airey took another small step back and chuckled. "No need to be so formal with the sir," he said with a small dismissive hand wave. Seriously, it made him feel old. Sir was reserved for his father and his grandfather, not him. He was still too young for sir. Really needed to fix his class rules for next term to include that.

"Good, glad to hear it," he smiled at the Gryffindor. The professor could tell by his tone that the young man was being sincere. He couldn't help but wonder, however, if this young Gryffindor was the same one that Mr. Hirase had mentioned - not by name - in his office. The one who 'acted strangely' around a certain Herbology professor. "You have a good rest of the day."

Salute.

ArianaBlack · 07-10-2014, 07:32 AM

SPOILER!!: No, no it's definitely YOU

No need to be so formal? What was it with Professors and this nonformality thing anyways? First Professor Morgan and now Flamsteed? Maybe the two were more similar than he thought. Astrology and Astronomy, all pish-posh, but the Professors themselves? Yeah definitely a resemblance presence. "You too Professor Flamsteed," and he truly meant it. For all it was worth this weirdo Professor wasn't all that bad. Especially after this little meeting. And with that, Zander turned around and made his way out of the door for real this time.

DuckyLinJi · 07-10-2014, 06:06 PM

It was some time after Kevin had stolen the blanket and he was probably really stupid for coming back here again. But this time he didn't plan on going inside the office nor speak to the Professor. Merlin's Beard he was trying to avoid him and he really hoped the man didn't come out of the office while he was here.

Seeing that the area was clear, the Gryffindor took a piece of parchment out of his robe pocket. Stupid essay he had to write...If the other Gryffindors didn't appreciate him for trying to earn those lost points back he would...well, he didn't know what he would do but he would make sure they noticed his anger.

He tiptoed towards the door and even held his breath in as he caaaaaaarefully slided the note under the door. It didn't go really far as it was now stuck between inside of the office and in the seating area. Not his problem. The note read;

"Gently"
Carefully, without a lot of force or sudden change in movement. Something I did in class and i'm TERRIBLY sorry for that, or whatever..was that what you wanted to hear..probably was... Lets see, so "Gently" means to handle with care and i shouldn't have bumped in to you like that like an American Football Player...Why don't we have a sport like that here anyways?

If this isn't what you wanted, too bad.
Oh and P.S.....You'll never find your blanket, i made sure of that *insert evil laughter here*

Okay, now it was time to get away again before the Professor noticed him. So he jumped up and ran away as quickly as possible, the sound of his feet echoing through the staircase down.

The astronomer sent the boy off with one last salute and then turned his attention back down towards the card in his hand. Ironically, this may be the first Valentine's Day card that really meant something to him. In fact, it was going to get its own little frame in his office.

Boyish grin on his face, the astronomer headed back inside his office. He would deal with the clean up later.

SPOILER!!: Kevin XD

Considering there had been no knock, it was a happy (??) coincidence that he saw movement near his door. Moving towards it, he pulled the rest of it under the door and stood back up to give it read over.

Oh, well, look at that. Mr. Hirase had actually done........well, he had SORT OF done the essay.

Letting out a noise somewhere between a chuckle and a groan, he set it down on his desk and pinched the bridge of his nose. Gold star to you, Mr. Hirase. You didn't even try? In terms of an apology, however, that was perhaps the closest the Gryffindor had come to with giving a proper one and he was going to take it.

As for the blanket bit, well, challenge accepted!

Noel Wallace needed some real higher power, like perhaps merlin. But Professor Space would do, he had decided. He was like the coolest professor ever, and he lived high really in a tower. Very much equivalent to a higher power, you see.

The thirteen year old had problems, issues and it was about time he talked to someone who wasn't telling him Hufflepuffs die.

-__-

So he needed someone to vent to, and tell him Hogwarts wasn't trying to kill him. Because seriously what was it with the killer flu????

Sneezing, and pulling his jacket closer to his body - the boy knocked on the Professor's door.

Sneezing, and pulling his jacket closer to his body - the boy knocked on the Professor's door.

He was finished. FINALLY finished. He had quite literally just finished sewing on the final bead for Data's left eye when he heard a knock upon his office door. Clutching all of his hand-knitted dolls in his hands, he used his leg to pull on the handle to his office door, slipping the tip of his shoe between the gap in the handle, and hopped backwards to open it up.

"Mr. Wallace, hello," he greeted, wiggling his way towards the door and using his own body to hold it open. "What can I do for you?"

Samia · 07-19-2014, 04:14 AM

He read that your heart stopped when you sneezed, the rate at which his sneezes were going - he was sure his heart would stop all together. Did nobody care about that?

He was fuming rather loudly in his head, and even in his head his voice was all nasal-y. When the door finally opened, Noel was just really really really flattered because Professor Space was there! And he knew NOEL'S NAME. He was sure he felt a kind of tingling sensation in his knees. He refused to admit it and blamed it on the flu but it was THERE.

"Well. Um. Do you think I can talk to you for a couple of minutes?" Or maybe more.

Wait. SNEEZE.

Oh dear lord, his heart was feeling weak. He was sure it was well ruptured by now. THIS IS WHAT HE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT. Not entirely but it was related to it! Wait, were those dolls in his hands? "Ah. You collect dolls?" he asked, curious as ever.

Oh sweet solstice, the poor boy's voice!

"If you need escorting to the Healer I can certainly do that," he nodded. Although seemed a rather silly thing to walk all the way from the ground floor to the Astronomy Tower to come ask. "Or perhaps a blanket? Afraid my warmest was taken from me the other week. Still need to go about getting it back. But I do have some others."

Talk though? Talk about what? The weather? It certainly was a hot topic these days. Or was cold the better term?

"Oh, sure, of course. Do you want to step into my office or perhaps somewhere else in the castle would be better?" He sort of needed to get out of his office. Miss Wisteria had insisted that he do so. He looked down at his hands. "Oh no, these I made myself. Just put the finishing touches on when you knocked. But, for the record, I do not collect dolls. I collect action figures."

Why did it seem like he was the only one with the flu? It was the freakin' winter's mother's mother visitiiing, more students should be rolling around on the ground sneezing and wailing for their mommy.

"Nonononono" he repeated just like he had with Hayley. "No hospital wings, please professor." He didn't like the smell, well he couldn't really smell ANYTHING at the moment. But no. He wont go ~~without his mum~~

Professor Space CARED enough to offer him blankets. Weak knees now sort of had an addition of jolts in the stomach. "I totally am fine, I promise" he said, ignoring the knees and the stomach.

"Stepping into your office would be so so cool, you know," he said, sort of tilting his head to see whatever he could of the professor's office. He had never been in there, but "Walking around with you would be cooler" he said, with a grin. He wasn't sure if his knees could take it but he didn't care. Something GOOD had to happen in Hogwarts. Maybe Professor Space was it!

ACTION FIGURES? "Really?" Omg. He stared at the professor with awe. "Can I see them?" If he could, he would be the boy who saw Professor Space's action figures. Into the office, it was??????

ACTION FIGURES? "Really?" Omg. He stared at the professor with awe. "Can I see them?" If he could, he would be the boy who saw Professor Space's action figures. Into the office, it was??????

The astronomer was trying his best not to look too amused by the young man's response, but a small part of him understood his unwillingness. His was mostly because he did not enjoy the death glares and finger pointing that came with each visit to Cecelia's territory. Especially when he was escorting Hufflepuffs...so... "Alright alright, no hospital wing."

He still gave the boy a sympathetic look up and down. He LOOKED a bit freezing, truth be told, so perhaps bringing him into his office was the best course of action. Could give him some of the famous Flamsteed Remedy too. Seemed to have helped the blanket stealer anyway.

"How about we do this, we can step into my office, having a gander at my extensive collection, have a spot of tea, and see where that leads us?" If it meant continuing conversation in his office and more tea, then he was more than willing. It was slightly warmer in his office than it was in the corridors. Although he did fancy a walk about the castle.

Everything that Professor Space said, Noel just agreed to by nodding and nodding. Because he wasn't going to say no. Nope. Anytime with the professor was good time.

Having tea with him .... Noel was already thinking of things he could and would say. If he didn't know any better, he'd think he was getting a slight anxiety attack. BEING ALONE IN THE ROOM WITH PROFESSOR SPACE.

One on one.

Oh my.

"Anything you say, professor," he said, resisting the urge to flail his hands like he did when he was little when he was SUPER EXCITED and nervous at the same time.

"Well, why don't you step into my office and make yourself comfortable," he invited as he stepped to the side and held the door open for the Hufflepuff. "Afraid the Warming Charms are just not holding as well as they used to, but certainly warmer in there than it is out here."

OOC: you can post in the office now :3

A sense of impending doom was filling the heart of one Sophie Brown.

It stemmed primarily from the fact that there were less than two months of school left and her time with Cat, Mo, and Elodie was running out. It had her worried about all sorts of other things, too - especially the thought of it being the last term for her favorite professors. Fuller and Thompson? She could still see them even if they quit, unless they moved away from Toby, and she made sure Culloden got enough of her appreciation - but Flamsteed? Did the man even know how much she adored him?

He would today.

Sophie didn't actually want to have to tell him personally though and be all vulnerable and mushy with him and make him uncomfortable at all, so she had everything she wanted to say written on a rolled-up piece of parchment and tied it to the stems of a bouquet of flowers. She'd gotten very good at Orchideous this term. Heh.

Before approaching the man's door - she was entirely unfazed by the pink and glitter - Sophie first looked around to make sure no one was watching, then she put her ear up to it cautiously to listen if he was inside, then she realized that was a silly thing to do because the man was totally wacky and probably had all sorts of gadgets inside that made noise on their own so that probably wouldn't even help her. She shrugged to herself in defeat, gently laid the bouquet right near the opening of the door, then KNOCKED RAPIDLY AND RAAAAAAN DOWN THE CORRIDOR AS FAST AS SHE COULD with every hope to be out of sight before the professor opened the door. HEHEHEHE.

SPOILER!!: oh myyyyyyyyyyyyyyy XD

"SPOCK!" he said as he wiggled the Kirk action figure with his right hand and wiggled in his Indian style sitting position on the floor. "The ship...out of danger?" This time the Spock action figure wiggled a little. "Yes," the Kirk figure 'said' sadly. "Don't grieve, Admiral ... it's logica... the good of the many outweighs..." The professor made the Spock figure bend and eventually lie flat on the floor. His attention then went to the Kirk figure. "... the good of the few..."

Bending both his action figures a bit to complete the scene, hew as just about to get to his absolute favorite part of the dialogue when there suddenly came a series of speedy knocks at the door. Jumping with surprise, he rolled backwards and completed half a somersault so he ended up on his stomach. At least he hadn't dropped either of his collectors items during his fleeting career as a gymnast.

"Nooooooooooooo," he whined. "My favorite part." He had only spent the last good part of an hour reenacting the film with his action figures. Now he was going to have to start it all over once he dealt with whoever was waiting on the other side of the door.

Tucking the figures into his breast pocket so the top halves were sticking out, he swung ope the door and saw..........flowers? He knelt down to pick them up and noticed the note as well. Wait, flowers would come after the note. There had been too much gift giving this term that were not the typical gifts - his own little gift to Piers included in this. Picking up the note only, he unfolded it and slowly read it over, his ears growing more and more red with each word his blue gaze fell upon.

Ears more than sufficiently red, he looked up and glanced around the seating area. "Miss Brown? Are you still here?" Was she hiding under the sofa? Bound to get covered in glitter by crawling under there.

Text Cut: SO CUTE

Sophie was relieved to make it around the corner before she heard the door open and she ever-so casually peeked back around to view the professor's reaction. She smiled to herself - was it just her faulty eyesight from all the way down the corridor, or was he going a bit pink to match the walls? - and a strong sense of pride washed over her. She made the man's day. Awwww. Was he going to cry? Did it really mean that much to him? Was he -

OHCRUDHEWASTALKINGTOHER?!

With a delayed reaction, Sophie popped her head back behind the corner and pressed her back up against the wall, eyes bugged and listening carefully to hear what he was doing. Ugh. He saw her. He HAD to have seen her, right? But she held onto the hope that he didn't and stayed put around the corner, not daring to steal another peek yet until she heard a door close. Or heard him walking toward her or calling her out and blowing her cover, in which case... she probably needed to think about what she'd say. Then they'd BOTH be embarrassed. Merlin.

Okay...so he wasn't actually going to get on his hands and knees to look under the sofa. If anything he was going to levitate it up, but that hardly seemed necessary since he caught something out of the corner of his eyes a little bit down the corridor. But before he could really take a good gander at the 'mysterious' mass, it had schoomed out of view behind the corner.

Slowly, but with exaggerated steps that made soft THUD THUD sounds as he move, he walked towards the corner. He was rather good at playing hide-and-seek, just so you know. Although this was hardly a challenge. "No need to tremble like a Tribble, Miss Brown," he chuckled as he continued his approach with the note still in his hand. He was assuming that was who was hiding over here. Process of elimination and deductive reasoning dictated as much. "Seems rather odd to try and hide from someone wanting to say thank you, don't you think?"
