To say the Moxinator was excited about this would be an understatement. She got to spend the day with Rocket Man and Myers who were some of her favorite people on the planet. She ALSO got to do the teaching thing which, y’know, she was quite fond of. All in all, today should be pretty awesome as far as she was concerned. Well, as long as no one injured themselves. Here’s looking at you, puffers.

…And here’s looking at you, Airey. WHY did he keep looking at her like that? She was fairly certain a backwards cap was in style these days.

Azura walked into the classroom, her purple eyes wide..

Uhhhh, what was going on here? And what were the professors wearing? She blinked a little at the changing tents and then cast her gaze at the blackboard..

Right, she would need to change!

She headed over to the box, rummaged through it until she found one that looked to be somewhat her size and then headed into the girls changing tent..

She was out in a few minutes, clad in her uniform and smiling,,

" Good morning Professors!" she said with a warm smile and wave at them all as she moved to stand in the middle of the room...

So the time had come for that joint lesson that had been mentioned at the start of term and hinted at over the course of the term. Astronomy…Herbology…Muggle Studies. And whatever terraforming exactly was. Whatever it was, the notice had mentioned work clothing would be provided, another mystery, which meant she had simply put herself together not worrying about full uniform or stuff wrecking her regular clothes. That paint from charms had been hard enough to get out despite the professor’s assurances.

Stepping inside the astronomy classroom, after lint rolling her clothes to gather cat hair, Olivia was greeted by the modified room. And changed professors too. One look at the three adults gave her a good clue as what type of uniform they would be supplied even before she noticed the notes of the board. “Hello Headmistress…Professors,” she greeted them before making her way into the girls tent. The Ravenclaw not wanting to miss anything by being late and missing the portkey. Soon enough she exited in the jumpsuit.

At least it was eagle blue.

Dot probably should be ashamed of herself, considering she was pretty sure she knew why Professor Flamsteed was making that face. He looked like he thought Moxley might eat him alive, and although she certainly was capable of kicking butts and taking names... Dot suspected his consternation had a different source.

So instead of feeling bad, she smirked as she picked up one of the uniforms and headed toward the changing tent. Except...

Except...

"Professors! These are very unflattering. Permission to accessorize at will?"

Melbourne had stopped before entering the room and quickly readjusted her hair. The idea of shedding a single hair and getting a detention for it was not going to be a good thing. Nope. Not at all. Shaking her head she made sure that any of her loose hairs would fall out now before she lint-rolled her robes.

There.

Swipe…swipeswipeswipe she continued to roll the lint rolled over her uniform and jumper before heading into the classroom. “Good morning Headmistress Moxley,” Melbourne smiled and then turned her attention to Professor Myers. “Good day Professor Myers –“ and Flamsteed. “’Morning Professor Flamsteed” she smiled and looked at their suits and then the board. “Nice suits,” she grinned and quickly grabbed one for herself before walking over to one of the changing tents changing into one of the NASA suits.

“these will probably be very handy” she grinned as she made sure to tuck her wand away in a pocket of the suit if she needed it.

Right. Getting into the zone...getting calm and relaxed. He couldn't lead a meditation before this class because it was with Airey and Meredith, and the last thing he wanted was to cramp their style!

So he rolled up his yoga mat and send it to side, wiping his hands on his knees afterwards. Students were hereeee! Hip-hip-HOORAY! Paul smiled eagerly and waved at them all.

"Hello, Azura! Nice day today, isn't it?!" he asked cheerfully and want to stand near Moxley. He had a bag of Twizzlers in his bag, you know, and he was very tempted to ask her to a twizzler-duel. How fun would that be? Very fun, duh.

"Hello, Olivia!" he waved at another younger student. They all looked so thrilled! So happy! He was bouncy and couldn't keep still! And DOT! He waved at Dot, too! "Dot--certainly! Go right ahead!" he beamed. "Does it flatter me?" and he posed next to Moxley.

Fashion model material over here.

ANOTHER CHEERFUL ONE! Paul smiled at Miss Johanson. "Hello! Good day to you, too, Melbourne!"

Hadley Denaker stumbled into the room, groaning and looking awful. Her robes were inside out and backwards, her left arm and right leg where engorged terribly. She was leaning against the door to support herself, but well, that only helped a step or two into the classroom.

Groaning again, Haddie pushed away from the door and tried to make her way deeper into the classroom, but failed. She collapsed, a bit too perfectly, a few steps from the door and groaned louder.

Ohhhhhh dear. When Jaemin bounced his way into the Astronomy classroom, he found himself at a bit of a loss as to what he was looking at. Tents... and the ridiculous jumpsuits that looked like garbage men were supposed to wear them. Huh. The small boy tilted his head and bounded up to the board, read it, then looked at the box. They were taking a portkey somewhere?! He'd never done that before...

"Hi professors," he chirped happily, heading for the box.

It took some digging around to find one of the jumpsuits that would fit him. He pawed through the box, grunting in annoyance when he found a bunch that were way too big for him; they all seemed like they'd be too long for him, so he finally settled on one that seemed to be the closest. He waited for a moment for the boy tent to clear a bit before sneaking into it and pulling the suit on, wrinkling his nose at it. It felt weird... he did all the buttons up, humming to himself, and wandered out of the tent. The sleeves and legs were too long on him, and he busied himself with rolling them up so he was drowning a little less.

It was then that he spotted Haddie, stumbling in the door. The little Slytherin's eyes went wide and for a moment he choked on air, not quite sure what was happening. She looked like someone had hexed her... Jaemin took a half step toward her, but then she fell, and he froze.

"Haddie...?!"

To say that Esme was excited for this joint lesson would be an understatement.

SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY ESTATIC.

This was only something that had been mentioned all term. And it was a field trip. She loved field trips! "Hello, Professors!" she announced as soon as she entered the room - just so that they and everyone else could see how good a mood she was in. That didn't last too long because Haddie was on the floor just past the doorway. She looked absolutely horrible.

"Haddie? Are you all right?" She wasn't sick, was she?

Noelle walked in, brushing orange flakes off her robe jacket before coming to a stop by the little round table. She was glad the lint roller was here for once. Other times, it was a nuisance. She brushes the lint roller over her clothes and made sure they were in order before stepping into the classroom.

Noelles eyebrow lifted when the room was different than it usually was. But this was Hogwarts, and nothing was ever truely the same. Even the staircases moved. Noting the girls and guys robe, she grabbed her suit, eyeing the professors outfits. She hoped she looked........ As good as them.

Noelle changed quickly in the tent, making sure to keep her eyes down. She came out with her outfit on, pulling at it, because this thing was just not comfortable. Her eyes lifted to the three professors and gave them all broad smiles. "Hello professors."

SPOILER!!: Hads! <3

Rachel stumbled into the classroom for the joint lesson after Haddie. Just like her best friend, her right leg was terribly engorged so that she walked rather awkwardly. It was very uncomfortable walking like this. It were as though she had one high heel shoe on but the other foot was free of any. Also like her best friend, her robes were on the wrong way.

However, she wasn't groaning in all the uncomfotableness as Haddie. "Hello, Professors," Rachel greeted with a grimace. She had tried to smile but it hadn't worked well. She turned to her best friend. 'Oh, Haddie! Are you alright?" In her discomfort, she had failed to notice that her friend had collapsed. "Can someone help me get her off the floor? I would do it myself but my leg's being a terrible bother."

So Tenacius thought it was just gonna be another day in Astronomy, which is a treat in itself. But like just chillin with the stars yknow? But as his blue-green eyes rested on not one, but THREE Professors in the classroom WEARING NASA JUMPSUITS, well he made like Super Mario swallowing the Star man.

It didnt even occur to him to wonder why the Herbologist and the Headmistress was there. THEY WERE WEARING NASA JUMPSUITS AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERED.

He zoomed past the lint roller, screeched to a halt, said hello to bestie Mel, Haddie and Rachel-- and no he didn’t notice anything was amiss, too excited he was-- swiped the lint roller all over himself so fast it was doubtful it picked anything up, then practically flew into the changing tents with a blue jumpsuit yelling out "PROFESSORS THIS IS SO AWESOME AAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!"

Clearly someone was delighted seeing a certain 4 letter word.

Penelope cleaned the cat fur and lint off of her robes with her lint roller before entering the astronomy classroom. "Good morning professors," she greeted as she walked through the door, suddenly stopping when she saw someone with enlarged limbs lying on the floor. Was that Haddie?

What in Merlin's Beard had happened to Haddie? Penelope rushed over to the younger Ravenclaw girl. As a prefect, Penelope needed to make sure Haddie would be alright. She knelt down on the floor next to Haddie, thankful that there were three professors in the room. Haddie was one of Penelope's little baby eagles and Penelope didn't want anything bad to happen to Haddie. "Haddie?" Penelope gave the professors a 'this girl just walked in with oddly enlarged limbs and collapsed on the floor and she needs help' look. The professors would be able to handle this, right? What was it with Ravenclaw girls and the astronomy classroom? Penelope had had her fair share of astronomy class related injuries and traumatizing experiences, but never in her whole time at Hogwarts had she seen anything like this. "I think she'll need to see Healer Murdoch." Although Penelope disliked the healer, it was clear that Haddie would be needing medical attention. That arm and leg weren't going to shrink themselves, and who knew what else might have happened to make Haddie pass out on the floor.

Henric rushed to the Astronomy classroom, thinking he was late. They were going on a fieldtrip, everyone! FIELDTRIP!

He had been looking forward for this day ever since they announced that they were having a joint lesson with all of his /FAVOURITE/ professors.

He didn't care for the lint rollers this time and went straight to picking out the best fitting NASA jumpsuit for himself. And obviously with his sense of style, he wore it in a way that he looked cool by wearing a t-shirt underneath and tying the strikingly blue sleeves on his front. Good thing he was wearing his black combat boots today too.

"Good morning professors,"he greeted as soon as he was out of that changing tent.

He had hoped to avoid the Admiral until the end of term to be honest, or like, forever... but despite not showing up to Astronomy class since the beginning of term, he was being forced to attend this one. Like, he wasn't going to NOT attend a field trip, those were the best things EVER. And he needed Herbology... and Muggle Studies too he supposed.

With O.W.L's looming in the not too distant future he was... ... prepared to work for things.

Arriving at the classroom with minutes to spare, Zeke entered and immediately noticed the changing tents. Boys... and girls... did they change in the one they preferred? Or the one of their own gender? Some things were better left not clarified he supposed. But upon grabbing himself a 'uniform' aka big kids costume thing, Zeke entered the boys changing tent anyway. Sigh. Better judgements.

... where was Maggie anyway?

Once he had all his things in place, Zeke vacated the tent and waited off to the side with his peers, offering nods and "Good morning"'s to the Professors.

Brooklyn didn’t rush. She never rushed anywhere. Especially not if it involved all the stairs that going up to the Astronomy tower involved. There had been a part of her that thought about not showing up to class, even given the field trip aspect. Astronomy hadn’t really been fun since she’d lost her ally, after all, but she hadn’t given up on Muggle Studies or Herbology as of yet. That meant deigning to make an appearance. She’d declined the communal lint roller, however. She knew she didn’t have any lint on her, or cat hair or anything else.

As she’d entered the classroom, she’d given the professors a smile. “Good morning Professor Flamsteed, Professor Moxley, Professor Myers,” she said, barely noticing the chaos caused by the little Claws as she walked further into the classroom. Instead, her attention was on the instructions to change into uniform, and Dot’s question of accesorization. She wasn’t abandoning her bracelet, no matter what, and she waited for the answer before she found a suit and disappeared to change, pulling her hair up into a ponytail as she disappeared inside the changing tent. She wasn’t abandoning every little Slytherin-esque detail to look like everyone else.

Those 'uniforms' were stupid.

Daxton made an obviously displeased face at the sight of them, which may have looked as though he was actually displeased at the sight of the professors (though perhaps few people would have been surprised if he was). Did he have to wear it? It was ugly, it looked uncomfortable and itchy and irritating, he would no doubt overheat in heavy clothing like that, and who could trust any clothing just left out for them like that? Not him. For a whole multitude of reasons, Daxton did not want to change into that.

He hesitated for a moment, shooting a glance at each professor in turn before staring at the changing tents, before simply moving off to the side without grabbing a uniform. Keeping silent and avoiding looking at any of the professors again, Daxton quickly ducked behind a group of other students in an attempt to stay out of sight, but not so close that anyone might mistakenly believe he was trying to join them.

Perching on one of the desks at the edge of the room, Daxton hugged one knee and let his other leg dangle below him, swinging gently back and forth like a lazy pendulum. Casting another glance around the classroom, he ran a hand through his hair and tried not to let his anxiety about the field trip show, though it was much more difficult than he was ever likely to admit.

Joint lessons usually meant quite a bit of a good time. This is what Hadleigh expected upon making her way into the Astronomy tower. Only she was instantly met with a firstie on the floor just inside the doorway and another firstie standing to the side of her fallen friend. Instantly both young ladies were looked at and it barely took any time to see that she knew them both. However what she didn't know was what happened to either of them.

With a quick look around she saw the older Raven Prefect was there with the girls which kept her from going straight to them. Not to mention the two large tents labeled 'Boys' and 'Girls'. Interesting indeed. Another look around and she spotted the instructions on the board.

Quickly making her way to the box of uniforms she selected one in her size and made for the changing tent. Inside she changed quickly into the uniform with a slight wrinkle of her nose. Not the nicest looking things but she could handle that later. Pulling her hair up into a semi messy ponytail she tied it back with a green ribbon. Her necklace remained being worn just underneath her shirt so no one saw it.

"Morning Professors," she greeted with a light grin and Vulcan salute for Professor Airey as she exited the tent. This is when she walked over to Rachel and gave the girl a small smile. "Are you alright Rachel, what happened?" she asked softly resting a hand on teh girls shoulder as she looked at her. No point in asking Haddie seeing as she couldn't answer at the moment.

Blaise Bellaire was all grins as he walked into the Astro classroom. This might have been where the class was but it still had Muggle Studies written all over it and that class made the little boy happier than most could manage. It put him in a good mood all around. Moreover, if Muggle Studies was involved, Moxley would NEVER let them use their wands. Ever. Ever ever ever. It's why he left his back in his dorm. Legit reason this time, yup.

Robes properly linted, Blaise made his way to his sea--whoooaaa, where were the chairs?? What were those tent? How come the Professors were dressed like that? WERE THEY GOING TO SPACE???? Oh boy oh boy oh boy!! He wasn't ready! This was so exciting! Space!!

"G'morning Professors! You're looking lovely as ever Professor Moxley." Aaaannnddd his usual brown-nosing line that he actually very much meant. "I can't wait to see what awesomeness you have planned for us today." All the dimpled grinning for his favouritest Professor in the entire world.

HE WAS SO READY! First step to being ready, the boy went and changed out of his robes. Spaceman. He got this.

Also, hi Daxton. Standing right next to you friend with a nod and a smile.

Janelle arrived for class with barely contained excitement. She always enjoyed field trips and Professor Flamsteed field trips were always........stellar. Remembering to de-lint herself first, she entered the classroom. It seemed pretty full already. Janelle guessed that most students did not want to miss a chance to venture outside of the Hogwarts grounds.

"Good Morning Professors, Headmistress", Janelle said upon spotting their leaders for the day. Then she was surprised to see Zeke amongst the eagerly waiting students. Janelle gave him a wave, supressing a smile. She started to go speak to him, but Zeke, Janelle, Flamsteed, Astronomy.........bad combination, for reasons only the two of them knew.

Then Janelle's attention was drawn to some classroom drama. Why was her housemate on the floor? The usually sympathetic Janelle resisted rolling her eyes. Whenever there was drama, why was Haddie involved? She was determined not to pay anymore attention to the situation, until she saw Rachel. Ok what was going on with the Ravenclaws? Janelle was bout to go check on the girls, but it seemed that Penelope and Haddie had the situation under control.

Seeing the uniforms that they were meant to change into, Janelle was exited all over again. She grabbed a boxed and quickly entered the tent to change. This was going to be awesome.

Elsa was still chewing down on paper-napkin-wrapped-waffle when she entered, licking her fingers cleaned. Her gaze looked around the room, locking on some specific parts like the tents, the signs the suits!!!!

She excitedly skipped in front of the professors "Good Morning!" she sang happily before approaching the suits and picking one her size. This is so exciting!! What is this for? Porkey?! Where are we going?

She entered the tent to change and in there she saw Azura, who she hadn't seen for a few weeks. Also Hady was in there too. She greeted them both enthusiastically "This is going to be awesome isn't it!?" Yes, to say she was excited was an understatement.

"Good morning Professor's," she said with a smile as she walked into the room and gazed curiously around. What was with the funny costumes? Her eyes widened in surprise when she saw the separate changing tents. Huh. Kitty waved to Esme, Azura, Rachel, Penny, Olivia, Noelle, and Haddie, and Hady. Upon closer examination she noticed that Haddie and Rachel looked injured. "What happened?" She asked in concern.

The joint lesson is finally here. Though she had no idea how on earth that three lessons can be related and being taught in one class. Okay, they're gonna do field trip though, not in a classroom. But still, Ava was curious.

She entered the classroom and greeted those three Professors. "Good morning, Professors!" She smiled to them. Their costumes looked... Funny, yeah. And they needed to wear them too? Okay. "Hey Noelle!" She greeted her dorm mate.

...STUDENT DOWN ALREADY?! Paul gasped openly when Haddie suddenly fell, and he swooped forward. Things like this just worried him so much! "Haddie--Miss Denaker--" he said, summoning one of the robes from the box and placing it under her head. "What's wrong, Haddie? Are you okay? Did you hit your head? Do you need the Hospital Wing?" he asked in a more than slightly concerned voice.

And then...Rachel, too?! What in Merlin's name?! "Rachel--Merlin--what happened to YOU? Your LEG? Is it okay? How do you expect to come on the field trip with a hurt leg?!" Merlin forbid she do something to make her leg WORSE.
