The crisp September evening air may be just the ticket to helping you stay awake this time of evening on your first day of lessons. Or just make you want to bundle up under the covers back in your dormitory. We won’t tell you how to feel.
Stepping into the Astronomy classroom, you may be a little perplexed to find any desks or chairs in the classroom and instead are greeted with what looks like a giant sandbox with glistening white sand. After another moment or two, you are swept off your feet by some unseen force that causing you to float up into the air - although you will need to do a little bit of air swimming to reach your seat. The initial feeling is similar to that of going down the first big dip in a roller coaster, but certainly not enough to make anyone nauseous enough for a little dinner show-and tell. Looking up, you see that the large semicircle of desks and chairs are all suspended in midair some 15 feet or so above the ground, rocking ever so slightly up and down thanks to the enchantments placed upon them. The blackboard, positioned across from the semicircle of desks, has the following instructions written upon it:
Quote:
Take out a quill and write your FULL name and year on the piece of parchment provided.
Once you have done so, give it a tap with your wand.
The parchment, enchanted by the professor himself, will turn into a sturdy wood name plaque when you do so. Don’t worry, it won’t go floating away from you but rather stick firmly to your desk.
Did you remember to use the lint roller on the small table outside of the classroom? It was there next to the sign that reads, "Not to be used as a brush for your hair" and has the signature of a former student in the bottom right corner. Also next to the sign is a small box containing an assortment of pips that you are meant to take and wear proudly on your robes for the duration of the lesson
SPOILER!!: pips
Professor Flamsteed is floating somewhere near the blackboard looking especially pleased with himself this evening. Surely that cannot be a good thing?

HA! With that last aim towards planet three under his belt, Zander was ready to swim back over to planet--What? He turned his head around right on the spot to see none other than Sophe Brown looking incredibly cutetrying to look incredibly cute. Aheeeem. Nope. She wasn't going to swing him. She wasn't. "I can't just give it to you, Soph!" Also no way Gryffindors would look WAY nicer. AHEM.
He was a little biased. But he was also completely sure.
"You've gotta work for it. Plus, Gryffindor's going for the WHOLE win." One crest wasn't enough. Zander was feeling greedy today. ROAR ROAR, GRYFFINDOOOOR!! Ahem. He shrugged, taking out a RED marble to counteract her last hit because no way was Ravenclaw taking this planet. This was lion territory now, Sophie Brown. "TIKALAS!" he pulled back, waiting for the gold band to appear before LETTING GO AND BOOM.
And red marks the spot.
"You're right, it looks MUCH better now," he grinned. What was she gonna do about it, huh?? Hehehehehe.

Squeaaaaaaak squeak squeaaaaaak. If only the air made noises as the kids swam through it, Davie was certain it would be making squeak sounds as he inched his way toward planet two again. He lined up, dug a marble out, secured his bag again, and pointed his wand at the planet. Ready, set, and....
"TIKALAS!" Davie pulled back the golden rubber band that appeared and shot his marble off toward planet two. YOU GO, PLANET TWO, YOU GO BLUE.

No, Sophie, NO. That second planet was going green, and not in the environmental sense. If she wanted cuddly red and blue planets, she was going to have work on planet number three. SOPHIE BROWN WAS GOING DOWN.
Although Dot adored her and didn't want her to be sad and there would probably be conciliatory hugs at the end of class. Hugs for Sophie and Kyroh, but NONE for Professor. Airey. Flamsteed. He'd been forgiven (sort of) for that awful trickery last term, but Dot wasn't sure she could keep letting him off the hook for making horrible decisions about how to be a role model.
But... the point? The point was that PLANET NUMBER TWO BELONGED TO DOT AND THE SNAKES. It's too bad snakes just hissed, because Dot kinda wanted a victory cry that was more terrifying than escaping air from a balloon. She did hiss quietly to herself as she removed another marble from her bag and lined up her shot.
This one was going to be a big hit. She felt it down in her pointy shoes. "Tikalas," Dot lined up the shot and whipped it forward, stepping into the shot for extra ooomph with said pointy shoe. FOR THE PRIDE OF THE SNAKE PIT. HISSSS. Oh, yay! It hit!

Kate grinned when she saw Davie also aiming for planet two. She had no idea where the other Ravenclaws were in the room, but she hoped they were trying to claim planet two, as well. Speaking of planet two, it needed another hit from Kate! She peeked to see how much blue was covering it, and it did look like a lot! She just didn't know if it was enough.
She reached into her bag and pulled out a marble. She tossed it to the tip of her wand. "Tikalas!" she called out. When the golden-colored band appeared, she pulled back and sent the marble flying. She watched it all the way to the bottom...until it smacked again planet two and shattered its blueness everywhere. Well, not everywhere, but Kate was excited that it seemed like it went everywhere.
Angel looked at the marbles that she had left, she was sort of relaxing and realising that it might be interesting to see which house would win even if the marbles were being destroyed into a million pieces, something she knew all too well about.
"ticaLAS" Angel watched as the spell work and she released the marble that flew towards planet two and she smiled when it hit it... she watched as the marble exploded and left it's mark on the planet. Was that number three or four she couldn't remember.
He'd tried it once and it didn't work but he had to get it to work this time. The first planet to go had already went to Gryffindor and he couldn't leave the other Ravenclaws hanging.
As he pulled out a different marble from the first try (not that it would change the effect, he was just being superstitious) and let it hover as he pointed his wand at it. "Tikalas." He watched as a faint glowing gold band appeared around the marble and he shot it, weakly albeit, at the second planet.
It lazily flew through the air and eventually made contact with the sandy surface with help mostly from the planet's orbit rather than his shellwork.
Angel knew it was time for another go, she grabbed a marble and held it out as she looked at it she knew what was about to happen. "tiKaLAS!" Angel watched as the band appeared and then she released the marble and she watched as the marble hit the planet and went into a million pieces just like her heart was at the minute and she couldn't help it.
"But don't tell my heart my achy breaky heart
I just don't think she'd understand
And if you tell my heart my achy breaky heart
She end up just like this marble."
Angel had no idea why she had decided to sing it maybe it was seeing the marble in a million pieces that she had thought about what had happened on the train, when she remembered where she was she just looked at the Professor hoping she wouldn't get into too much trouble, it wasn't her fault she was so sad.
After his own little celebration, Milo heard a third year from his House (Kate) and David nearby planning to go after the same planet. He had just hit that planet too.
"Planet two then?" he said stepping closer to the pair with his wand out and sack of marbles. He stood near them and cast the spell on his next marble. "Tikalas!" The gold band appeared and WHOOSH! He'd aimed a foot or so in front of where the planet looked to be going but just as it passed a green and red marble flying for the same spot the planet stopped and began to go in the opposite direction but Milo's marble luckily grazed the surface leaving a blue streak.
Post 3, Planet #2 and a hit! // Aiming for Planet #1
Stephanoodle || Adorable Nerd
Colt saw his spell as gonna hit the planet. Come on baby you can do it! He saw it and IT WAS A HIT!!! YES! He finally made a crater into the second planet. He heard Professor Airey call out that Gryffindor was in the lead. Eh he was gonna try somewhat harder now. He got his marble out and was prepared to hit another planet. He saw Planet #1 was getting nothing. He got his wand at the ready and said, "Tikalas!" and he saw his marble flying towards Planet #1. Was he gonna hit or miss?
BOOMBAYAH! | #PuedoPorquePiensoQuePuedo | Certified Blank and Random Person | Raventastic
Ava decided to take a break for a while because... This was fun but a liiiiitle bit tiring. Seemed like Ravenclaw was so on fire to claim either one of the Planet 2 or 3. But she had her own mission, just aiming the planet 3 so if Gryffindor could claim that planet, automatically they won, right?
Okay, enough with the break!
The Gryffindor firstie grabbed another marble and like she had said before, Planet 3 was her main target. Ready? "TikaLAS!" She pulled back her marble, watched it flew streaking across the universe and... HIT! Look at the beautiful red crater that she had created. BEAM!

The remaining planets were still up for grabs, and AJ wasn't giving up. She would keep shooting marbles until the very end. It was hard to tell what the standings were with the current planets, but she wasn't going to focus on that. Nope.
Another marble was grabbed and she gave it a once over. "Look here, marble. We really need this win. All of your other marble friends have not let me down." AJ eyed it for dramatic affect. "You don't want to be the marble that fails me." Understood? Yes? Yes.
The marble was placed on the tip of her wand. "Tikalas." Once the 'las' came out of her mouth, she adjusted the marble. A golden band appeared. All was well. AJ was lined up just so. The marble was just about to be let go on its planet destruction way when singing caught her ear, and her wand arm moved slightly.
"Noooo." No impact. She had missed completely and all because of Angel and her singing. "Angellllll." What was that dreadful song? "Get your head in the game." She loved her sister and knew that she was going through a lot, but boys were not a good enough reason to lose a competition. Not only was she messing with herself, but she threw off AJ's concentration.
Planet two had taken a beating so the Ravenclaw decided to spread the blue marble craters to the third planet. He took his wand out and pointed it towards the third planet. He repeated the pell that he'd just learned, suddenly wondering what would happen if you performed it on a different object besides the marbles. He would have to try that later, once class was over or ask Professor Admiral Flamsteed what would happen after class.
"Tikalas!" The blue marble glowed with the golden light form the magical band and sped off heading directly of this target.
But it was a miss. His blue marble hit midair with one from a Hufflepuff and it created a little green blast in the middle of the floating, multicolored planetary orbits. Bummer.

Aaaand after a moment of observation, it became obvious that Sophie was NOT aiming for the second planet. So. They could be friends again, no more mortal enemies, and also Dot was really sorry for mentally shaving Sophie's head for her betrayal. Double hugs after class!
IN THE MEANTIME, that second planet had to be nearly completely covered by now, and Dot wondered if she ought to turn her attention to the third one. Sorry, Sophie-daisy, but she had to participate in class. You know how it is, right?
Ahem. Another marble, another lined up shot, and another, "Tikalas" before she sent the marble sailing. Maybe her heart wasn't in it now that her superhero anger had waned, or maybe she didn't really want to take out Sophie's planet, but her marble sailed right past planet number three.
That made it... an meteoroid, right? It never entered the planet's atmosphere. Maybe she was actually getting this??! NOT THAT PROFESSOR. AIREY. FLAMSTEED. WAS FORGIVEN. Never that.

Missing the planet was a shame, but Paulina wasn't going to let it bother her. Other people had missed as well, and it wasn't as if she didn't have any other marbles to use.
Deciding to stick with the same planet, she pulled another yellow marble out of her bag. She was going to make this shot, and to be sure that it happened, she tried her best to aim at the center. Even if she drifted off course a little - which was highly likely - she would still manage to make contact.
Holding the marble in position, she said the incantation while pulling back at the right moment. Watching the marble soar through the air, Paiulina smiled when it crashed into the planet. Smiling at the crator, she was pleased that she had only missed the center by a few inches.
HA! With that last aim towards planet three under his belt, Zander was ready to swim back over to planet--What? He turned his head around right on the spot to see none other than Sophe Brown looking incredibly cutetrying to look incredibly cute. Aheeeem. Nope. She wasn't going to swing him. She wasn't. "I can't just give it to you, Soph!" Also no way Gryffindors would look WAY nicer. AHEM.
He was a little biased. But he was also completely sure.
"You've gotta work for it. Plus, Gryffindor's going for the WHOLE win." One crest wasn't enough. Zander was feeling greedy today. ROAR ROAR, GRYFFINDOOOOR!! Ahem. He shrugged, taking out a RED marble to counteract her last hit because no way was Ravenclaw taking this planet. This was lion territory now, Sophie Brown. "TIKALAS!" he pulled back, waiting for the gold band to appear before LETTING GO AND BOOM.
And red marks the spot.
"You're right, it looks MUCH better now," he grinned. What was she gonna do about it, huh?? Hehehehehe.
He was being SO MEAN. SOOOO MEAN, ZANDER ADAIR.
"Yes you caaaan!" she whined back, scrunching her nose playfully in his direction, and watched him DEFY HER AND SHOOT ANOTHER MARBLE AT THE PLANET. AND HE HIT IT. RUUUUUDE.
"Zandeeeeeeeeeer. Y'guys already GOT one. Sharing is caring." She stuck her tongue out at him like a small child as she pulled another marble from her bag and lined it up at the end of her wand, then FOCUSED because she REALLY WANTED TO DEFEAT HIM AND HIS GRYFFINDOR BRETHREN. So she chased down the third planet and studied its movements, squinting at it as she waited for the right moment - and when it came, she didn't even hesitate to cast "Tikalas!" and pulled back on the marble, the golden band aiding in the launching of the marble with precision, a visible bead of sweat forming on Sophie's forehead--
COLLISION! IMPACT! BLUE CRATER!
"You're the worst." To Zander, obviously, because THAT'S WHAT HE WAS. "If we weren't in class, you'd be gettin' taken DOWN right now." JUST SO HE KNEW.
Floating around and watching really did get boring after a while. Even people watching did not make it any more exciting, and Daxton had witnessed the spell being correctly used dozens of times already, and knew the mechanics of what was proper form. He entertained himself for a while with comparing the differences in how people executed the spell; boys versus girls, house versus house, younger versus older... but still. Bored.
Luckily he had no intentions of simply floating there doing nothing. Instead, Daxton had placed his original marble in his right palm, holding his hand out flat and raising it . Without really aiming for anything, he slid his left hand across his right at speed and hit the marble with the side of his hand, sending it shooting off into the fray of people at an odd angle.
Interesting. Daxton had tried that at first to see if he could send out the marbles that was. The question was if it would make an impact in the same way as the ones flung with magic. He watched the marble's progress for a while, but soon it was lost amidst the other students, so he got another marble out of his drawstring bag and got ready to try again.

He shook his head defiantly. Is that the way Sophie Brown wanted to win anyways? By ASKING for it. By being HANDED the victory? What kind of fun was that? No fun at all, in Zander's opinion anyways. He wanted to get the victor that HE DESERVED. And that's why he wasn't going to back down. 'Cause Gryffindor DESERVED the win. Just to prove once again that best house eeeeever. Aheeeem. Plus, he was supposed to be setting an example here. So really, this was for the good of the whole house. Not just for the win. Ahem. Hehe. Totally.
"Isn't the fun in the challenge, Soph?" he watched her carefully, even attempting a bit of a proud smirk. And maybe, just maaaaaaybe hoping she'd miss. DARN. And not only did she make a perfect blue crater (no surprise there), but then she was calling him out again. But this time it sounded a lot like a threat rather than begging. Hm.
So when Zander pulled out his next red marble, he pointed towards the third planet, again, "TIKALAS!" He was determined to beat her. But then last minute, he changed his mind. He had another target in mind. Though, he was going to pretend like it was a mistake because he didn't fancy getting another detention any time soon. So leaning to the side a little, he threw himself off balance, floating away and let go of the pull right as the golden hoop made its appearance, managing to send the red marble flying towards Sophie Brown instead of the planet. Hehehe. Except of course he wasn't going to make it hit her smack dab on target or anything. Much too obvious. He aimed it towards her shoe.
Let some of that Gryffindor-red pride show, Sophie Brown. Hehehe. "Oops? Sorry!" he scratched his head, trying to play it off as an accident. La la la. No one saw a thing. It was an innocent mistake. WHOOPS. And Sophie Brown would probably kill him after class for this, he was sure. Welp. #RIPZANDER Say hi to Gregoire for everyone, kay?

The pursuit of Hufflepuff pride was looking pretty hopeless at this point, but that DIDN'T mean she was gonna lose hope 'cause Norahs just didn't do that. It was against the rules of being a Norah. She'd decided. With another marble picked out of her bag she didn't even bother floating somewhere else, she just held it over her wand and hoped for the best. "Tikalas!" Aaaaand LAUNCHED.
Apparently hoping for the best wasn't as effective as it was supposed to be, because the marble went flying past the third planet she'd been (kind of?) aiming for. She'd almost looked down to pick out another marble, but sure was good that she didn't because she would've missed the MIRACLE that happened next. Okay it wasn't really a miracle, but it was a pretty pleasant turn of events so that should count for something, right? Right. She beamed at the newly formed yellow crater on the SECOND planet, not the third, which was even better 'cause that was her favorite one anyways. So there, whoever said hoping was useless was aaaaall wrong

Was the fun in the challenge? "No. Absolutely not." She wasn't above ASKING for mercy and for a win to be handed to her. Not at all. She would take the win for Ravenclaw in WHATEVER WAY POSSIBLE. And if that meant suckering Zander into backing off and letting her keep fighting for Ravenclaw without his interference, then SO BE IT.
Determined and ready to keep firing at the planet to keep the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tally from the Head students even, Sophie quickly put her next blue marble into place, lined it up at the tip of her wand, cast "Tikalas!" and pulled back on the marble--
BOOM!
The unexpected minor explosion of marble against her foot made Sophie Brown SCREECH and her marble went flying UPWARD toward the ceiling, but when she realized 1) what had just happened and 2) WHO had sent it her way - of COURSE it was Zander, that was the only Gryffindor who would even consider shooting something at her, and his devious grin gave him away anyway - Soph pointed a finger over at him dramatically, but... she kept quiet. It was... a curious happenstance - she wanted to playfully scold him, to shout at him teasingly, to float after him and chase him around the room and try tackling him in the air and ruffle his hair and give him a noogie... but. Flamsteed.
Sophie Brown knew better than to goof off in his class again. Last time, it had nearly landed her in detention.
So instead of yelling, or drawing any more attention to her red shoe than she already had with her screech of alarm, Sophie Brown wrinkled her nose over at the Head Boy and mouthed, You are so dead. Just wait till we get out of here.
And then he WOULD BE TACKLED AND NOOGIED TILL THE END OF TIME.

HEHEHE. Owen grinned wide at the Hufflepuff male Prefect and returned the thumbs up. Heh. Pssh. Well, he did what he could.
...then out of nowhere, he heard a POP! The Hufflepuff floated about just in time to see the large Gryffindor house crest. WOOH! Awesome Gryffindors, they were! Owen clapped for them.
Now, they had to show that Hufflepuff house was awesome too!
To more craters!
The first-year picked another marble from the bag, situated it on his wand ready to slingshot it at a planet, "Tikalas!" The marble was off!...but MISSED!
Aww.
It would have been a clear shot, the kind of shot that created a large crater had it not been for the screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeech that made the young badger lose his aim. When he looked for the source of it, he found out that it was the Head Girl. Making faces at the Head Boy. Ahhhhh...that explained the screeching.
Daxton was almost in his own little world, focused mainly on what he was doing rather than the antics of anyone else in the class. Every so often he would begin to drift this way or that, and once there were a dangerous moment where he had almost floated into a strange slow air-cartwheel, but then he had righted himself and grabbed the marbles that had drifted put of the bag before he was back at his safe place by the wall.
Lining up said marbles on his hand, Daxton looked out into the classroom again. Aiming nowhere other than just generally into the fray, he slid his other hand back again and before pushing it forward again in one short burst, hitting all three at once and causing them to go zooming off in different directions. Nowhere near as fast as if he would have used the spell, of course, but still speedy.
And then... an idea. These marbles... they made craters. In the planets, but not in the human body. So... what about the classroom walls? Would they remain in tact because they were not made from sand? Or was there magic about the marbles that would put a crater in the wall? Only one way to find out. Aside from asking, of course, and that was boring.
Kicking himself gently away from the wall, Daxton scrambled in the air for a moment to remain upright. After a lot of precarious tipping and floating, he just about managed it. Then, with another marble - his fifth - drawn from the bag, the Ravenclaw eyed the wall and threw the marble at it, hard as he could.

Post 6: Planet #2 (hit)
Otter This World ♡ Catpurrccino ♡ Slotherin ♡ Pandamonium
Hazel eyes scanning over her fellow snakes Hady quickly came to notice that most of her team were all shooting at the same the Planet. It was about time! They would have better luck all silently working together to take out the same planet.
Retracting another green marble from the pouch that was still safely tucked away in her pocket her gaze moved from the snakes to the last remaining planets. With Planet two clearly in her line of sight Hady waved her arms about while also wiggling her legs some to remain in an upright position and get a little closer. This wasn't an easy task really but it was fun. So it wasn't minded all that much.
Positioning the green marble over the tip of her wand Hady closed one eye and took very careful aim. Just as Planet two and the marble were both in line she spoke the incantation clearly. "Tikalas," slowly pulling her marble back as the gold band appeared at the 'las' part and then letting it fly.
"WACK!" Right into Planet two the green marble impacted itself leaving behind a gorgeous green colored crater! Let's do this thing snakes! Hady mentally cheered on her house.

With one last glare at that Gryffindor crest thing, Maggie turned to see what other planet the Slytherins were going for. Planet 2 apparently. At least that's what Dot was doing. So naturally she was going to help. Team work and all that, right? Yes. And she was totally chill again. Nbd. They'd win another planet. Mhm. All good.
...
Kicking the air again, Maggie moved closer to the second planet while holding up another marble. Right. Let's do this. "Tikalas!" With a deeeeeeep breath she pulled back the marble, took aim aaaaaaaaaaand.......ding! She should do this professionally. Like. Hit things. Or like throw things.

Owen decided that it was best he moved out of the way of the Head!couple to avoid more screeching. So he rounded the planet and ran!floated towards the other planet as he simultaneously readied another yellow marble.
"Tikalas!" The Hufflepuff cast as he lean!floated backwards. He was feeling so magical right now with the floating. Hehe.
More so because the marble he just fired went and splatted a crater on the planet he was aiming for. YAY! It was therefore wise that he moved away from the screeching.
Placing an arm behind his head, Owen decided to take a break for a while and lay floaaaaaaaating around for the time being.
Angel suddenly heard her sisters words and she realised that her sister was right she really needed to get her head in the game. She didn't want to be the reason they lost the whole game because then she would just feel twice as bad as she did now.
Angel grabbed hold of another marble. "Sorry about this." She whispered to it, might as well apologise for making it smash into a million and one pieces. "Tikalas!" Angel watched as the gold band appeared and she looked at the marble one last time before she released it and watched as it hit the planet she had been aiming for.
