If you keep walking into the classroom you'll notice to the right of you there are tons of thick poster paper, paints, markers and other art supplies. Once you make it towards the table you'll see Professor Salvatore sitting at her desk and a chalkboard with writing on it.

As you keep looking around there are all different kinds of canvas paintings on the wall of stars, the sun, moon, the planets in our solar systems and galaxies hanging on the walls. Professor Salvatore had done a nice little remodel of the Astronomy classroom. She didn't really care for desks so she had tables set up in three long rows that would allow two students to sit at each table. On each table there is a photograph of the solar system.
OOC: Please remember to follow all of Professor Salvatore's rules and remember all SS rules apply! You're more than welcome to have your characters mingle before class starts.

Leon walked into the Astronomy tower, his hands in his pockets as he looked around. Was he the first one here? He had been a little too excited about this class, not only was it one of his favorite subject, but it was close to the common room!
Score.
He looked around the room to see art supplies, something that excited him. He loved to draw and sketch..
His grey eyes scanned the various pairings of the solar system..
"Hello Professor Salvatore. " He said with a smile as he found a seat at one of the tables. "How are you today? " He asked as he looked down at the map of the solar system..
He was going to hazard a guess and say they were studying the solar system?

Duuuuuuuude.
Brent was early to class. It was just him and that Ravenclaw dude he'd barely spoken to in Diagon Alley. He gave the guy a nod in greeting then looked around the classroom. True to this school's nature, there weren't any desks, but at least there were tables. Brent could deal with those. He was just getting a little tired of the mats and pillows he'd been sitting on. He liked a place to put his stuff and a table to write on.
"Hello, Professor!" he greeted, passing her by and heading toward a table. As he put down his bag and got seated, he looked at the pictures on the table. Hmm. Cool. There was also lots of art supplies around, which gave him hope they'd be doing something fun and not just listening to a lecture. Hopefully somebody would come sit with him. He was all about hanging out with some friends.

Juno quietly walked into the classroom. "Hello, Professor," She said with a wave and a smile. She quickly found a seat , which was easy to do since there were only a handful of others in the class.
She was excited for this lesson. Last term they had Professor Burbage...a ghost. She was a great teacher, but at least the new professor couldn't float through them.

ZORYN WAS SO REAAAAAAADDDDYYYYYYYYYY to learn about STARS. Though, she much preferred REAL stars. Like Justine Janvier. When were they gonna learn about THOSE?
Zoryn zooooooooomed into the classroom and did a bunch of twirls in excitement upon seeing the crafting supplies. "Yooo are we doing arts and crafts today, Professor!?!" Zoryn couldn't even wait until she got all the way to the Professor Salvatore's desk to ask. Her curiosity had bested her and she was already trying to figure out what they'd be doing for the day.
And man, did she sure hope it was arts and crafts.
'Cause then she could send it home and her mom would put them up all nice on the refrigerator. How awesome would that be!?!?! SUPER AWESOME. That's how.

Astronomy had been one of those subjects that Elle had been undecided about for years, yet she hadn’t quite given up on it yet. If anything, having a new professor was bringing a new interest for her. In any case, she had found herself making her way up to the towers, curious what they’d be studying this time. Especially as she’d arrived to the classroom to see the art supplies. That was unexpected, for sure. Even for Hogwarts, unless she’d somehow gotten things mixed up and this was Muggle studies.
No, it was definitely the Astronomy classroom, the planet images and other space-related paintings proved that, if the professor hadn’t. “Hello Professor Salvatore,” she greeted the woman at the front with a smile, making her way to a table. Once there, she’d settled into the seat and turned her attention to the picture in front of her. Definitely the planets, but then she already knew that. Hoepfully they’d learn something new.

Oooh! Time for her next lesson! One she actually liked to follow. It wasn’t exactly like she was good at this subject but she found it interesting so that should be enough she decided. But, although she was interested in this subject, she wondered for what use it was. She absolutely couldn’t think of a job within the magical world in which she needed to have any knowledge about stars and planets… Maybe she should ask that question sometime when she had time to do so… “Stay inside my pocket Vlam” she whispered to her rat and pushed the smaller animal deeper inside her school uniform. She knew that there were no rules about bringing pets to a classroom but… Some teachers didn’t exactly liked rats so better to be careful!
After entering the classroom she walked over toward the professor and smiled brightly. “Hello professor, how are you doing?” She asked, still sounding in a good mood. Looking around her she noticed the tables and she wasn’t even surprised that the professor had changed the classroom like this, she… Actually had expected it!
Etta finally reached the classroom. Wow, that was just too much of climbing. But then again, exercise was good. She wondered if this class would be interesting, because study of the stars was cool, yeees? And would the professor be as cool as professor Paul? The girl walked into the classroom with a grin, noticing that she was quite early. Not that it was a bad thing.
"Hey, everyone!" She smiled cheerfully at the few students in class before nodding towards the professor. "Hello, professor." Etta sat down, looking down at the picture in front of her with interest. Something related to planets, most probably.

Janelle arrived for Astronomy class and paused outside the door. Even though Flamsteed had been gone for a while, she still expected to see the lint roller outside of the classroom. Chuckling at the memory, she entered the room and saw something that made her smile. It looked like they would be doing a little artwork today. Janelle was definitely cool with that.
"Hello Professor", Janelle said cheerfully. "Are we going to be drawing today?" Moving on, she found an empty table for two and claimed her seat. Janelle sat down, placed her book bag on her lap a proceeded to take out all of the supplies that she would need for class. Then to entertain herself, she checked out the paintings on the wall. Is that what they would be creating today?

If Cassie wasn’t so used to climbing a lot of stairs to get to her common room every day, the trek to Astronomy would be torture. As it was, it was A LOT of steps that eventually led to the treads of the spiral staircase up the tower classroom. Thankfully she had given herself enough time to make it, knowing it from experience. Yet still, by the time the fourth year had made it to the top, quite a few students had already beaten her there. The older Ravenclaw boy she had gotten in DADA…the Hufflepuff prefect…a few Slytherins, another Hufflepuff and a Gryffindor. And finally Janelle.
“Hello Professor,” she greeted Professor Salvatore who was seated at her desk with a polite smile. Then was the debate where to sit, the Ravenclaw finally taking a double table that didn’t already have someone there. Cass was open for a random desk buddy for the lesson…for the most part. Settling down and taking out supplies for notes she took in the photograph on the table as well as the art supplies scattered around.

Art supplies were enough reason to be excited for today's lesson and Junia couldn't help but smile as her attention turned to the astronomy professor. She gave her usual curtsy before greeting the woman cheerfully, "Hello Professor!" She was feeling better today, had anyone noticed? No boy was going to keep her down. Not even one as great as Adra.
Spotting an older Slytherin she recognized from the common room, the thirteen year old headed over and took up the seat beside him. "Hey." He didn't mind company, right? ...Not that it mattered much. She was already unpacking her notes and things and setting them neatly on her side of the table.
Guess it was a fun class. I mean he knew his cousin always had fun with the activities and such. He knew Professor Airey wasn't here anymore but there was a new teacher. He wondered where Airey was. Ah well this professor couldn't be that bad could she? He shrugged and would def give her a chance. He finally made it to the classroom and saw the others were here. He saw that mostly there was two to a table. He turned and saw the Professor was there. He nodded and gave her a small smile. He didn't know her name yet but didn't feel like starting conversation.
He saw his mate Leon and sat down next to him. He gave him a sup nod. He then looked down at his picture. Huhh guess there was learning the solar system. Just a hazard guess.

Carlton entered the Astronomy Tower with hiiiiiigh expectations. He liked space. And everything it included. He didn't like the long walk up the tower though, especially not with his school bag full of textbooks. But he made it! He stood for a second in victory, hands on his waist, before finding a seat.
He waved to the Professor. Hello. Hiya. Howdie. Yo. Sup? Instead he went with; "Hello Professor Salvatore!" He made his way over to a seat and dropped his heavy bag on the floor. He wiggled his body to sit more comfortably and made certain there was room for someone to sit down next to him. Then his eyes fell on the photograph on the desk.
"PLANETS." He announced, leaning down so he was half an inch away from it. "Space." He added softer as he traced the outline of the planets.

Rooney LOVED anything to do with creativity, but...this was supposed to be Astronomy. He fought the urge to roll his eyes and instead smiled at Professor Salvatore as he entered. "Hi Professor, how are you today?" He hoped that she didn't take his asking as a cue to give him her life story, because he didn't have the time for that. And she apparently didn't realise that she was teaching Astronomy. ASTRONOMY. Good grief of Merlin. But nonetheless, he was present for a class and he was ready to learn.

Brent kind of casually glanced over his shoulder. People were piling in, but it was still just him at his table, chilling by himself. Was it going to take him a whole year to get over being the new kid? To have a group of friends? Kind of made him feel like a big loser. he had just adjusted his position in his chair, when lo and behold, a girl about his age took a seat across from him at his table.
He grinned at her. "Hey. What's up?" he greeted, using some of his usual Brent slang. He knew she was a Slytherin, and he'd seen her around, but she was a part of the huge majority of people he still hadn't met yet. Time to change that. "I'm Brent Westwood."THANKS FOR SITTING HERE! He decided to play it chill, though.
It was so far to walk from her common room to the Astronomy tower. She was tired from all that walking. The Gryffindors and Ravenclaws had it so much better than the Slytherins and Hufflepuffs at least when it came to these classrooms on the seventh floor, not so much when it came to a potions lesson.
Katerina headed into the astronomy tower, Greetting the Professor. "Hello Professor Salvatore." She read the sign take a seat anywhere Well yes of course she could do that.
Looking around the classroom to find a place to sit seen Etta sitting along and when over there to sit with her. "Hey there roomie." She said with a big smile. Spotting all the excess of art supplies, only made Kat even more excited to find out the where going to learn about today. She looked on the table and seen a picture of the solar system. Was that a indication of what the were learning today?

Astronomy! Kane was pretty excited for this one - the stars were COOL and the fact that space was soooo large and went on LITERALLY forever. And all these art supplies were VERY promising. This was going to be soooooooo fun.
"Hey Professor!" he said happily, taking a seat and then finding his bro in the crowd and giving him a wave.

Astronomy
While, it wasnt one of Noelle's favorite subjects, she did fancy the stars. They were beautiful. She could sit outside and watch them all night.
Heading into the classroom, Noelle looked around at the three long tables and then at the board. After that, she noticed the art supplies everywhere. Oh Merlin, Noelle had no artistic abilities in her body. She hoped she wouldnt get scored on how well she did.
She giggled at Zoryn's excitement and twirling. The younger lion was cute.
Noelle looked for a place to sit and waved hello to Colt as she passed by him. Kat also got a big smile and a wave before Noelle stopped beside an older year. "Hi, mind if I sit here?" She asked before she sat down. If the girl had a problem with it, she'd probably move. Maybe.

Rula did like Astronomy, but she wasn't looking forward to the lesson as much only because it reminded her of Max and how much she missed him being at Hogwarts.
Still, here she was, though her smile wasn't quite as bright as usual.
"Hi, Professor," she said before looking around the room for a place to sit. There were still a few empty tables, but she didn't feel like picking one of those. Instead, she walked over to another Slytherin girl (Elle).
"Hi! Mind if I sit here?" Hopefully not, but she would pick another table if so.

Astronomy! She was psyched. Planets. What would they be doing today? Planning a mission to Mars? Venus? Perhaps even visiting a planet in a galaxy far, far away. Olivia entered the classroom with a bright smile tugging at her lips. Let's do this. "Hello Professor!" she almost sung and then headed towards where the other students waited. Wow. There were quite a few people she recognized. She spotted Brent in the crowd. Hey! Wave and a smile for him! OOh and there was Etta too. Etta got a big smile! As did Zoryn. It would be tough to choose where to sit between those guys so she decided to find a seat next to someone she didn't know. This would be an opportunity to make a few more friends, right?
Oh hey! There was Noelle. She waved and smiled at Noelle before making her way over to an older Ravenclaw (Leon) and Slytherin (Colt).. "Hey! Mind if I sit here?" she asked with a small smile.

Janelle had checked out just about all of the paintings when she heard a voice. Looking up, she replied, "Of course, I don't mind." Giving the younger girl a smile, waved toward the empty seat and said, "Pull up a chair". "How have you been Noelle?" Janelle thought about how quickly her time at Hogwarts had passed. It seemed like just yesterday that she and Noelle had been partners in a snowball fight. Now she was a seventh year and Noelle was a prefect. Man, time really does fly when you're having fun.

The bit of running up the stairs towards the Astronomy classroom made her get a little too excited already. It wasn't like this was her favorite subject, but at least kept her mind busy off things happening lately.
She took a long breath before stepping in and looked inside. Admirable. Made her feel like she was at the gym with all the Reach for the Stars motto. Steph smiled and walked in, "Good day, professor." She greeted, clearing her voice to make it sound louder.
Once she searched around for a seat, she waddled walked towards it and stared at the picture of the Solar System.

Zoryn haaaaaaaaaai :3
astronomizzle ♧ gryffinDORK | & the rest is drag ♣ #badluckDerf
Derf was EXCITED! He had heard LOADS of stories from mum about the former Astronomy professor since they had been colleagues and he had even been her assistant while she had been Head of Gryffindor house and while the first year really had zeeeeeeeeeeeero interest in space, just hearing his mum talk had gotten him excited. So expectations were pretty high, but he was also rather impressionable so it was really a mixed bag of possible reactions to the subject.
First thing he noticed - although it was not nice to refer to a person as a thing - was Zoryn because of her HAIR. Hair that he still needed to..test some nesting theories on. He should totally invite her down to the creatures area and see if he could at least get a fwooper or two to sit on her head. They would look really pretty next to her dark hair...
Making a beeline to the Gryffindor, Derf set his enchanted suitcase on the table next to her and grinned. "Hi," he greeted, pulling out his chair and taking a seat.
OH RIGHT THE PROFESSOR!
Jumping back to his feet, Derf's blue eyes flew towards the front of the room and on the blonde woman. "HI PROFESSOR!"
Okay. That was done.
Wait...were they going to draw? Derf had been under the impression that astronomy meant science talk...not art projects. But the latter he could probably handle more easily so he wouldn't cause THAT much of a fuss. Shrugging off some of his low key disappointment, he pulled at the picture the professor had provided them - the one he had trapped underneath his suitcase - and glanced at Zoryn again. "You fink we are going to draw our own planet? Fere is a mys-s-stery ninth one out fere s-s-somewhere..." he whispered to her just before a soft riiiiiiiiiipping noise alerted him to the fact that he had just torn his picture in half.
...........erm..........oops?

Astonomy. Eh, Olivia wasn't optimistic.
....But she was here. So, making her way quietly into the room, the blonde took a gander around the space; mostly trying to gauge whether or not this would be uncomfortable on an attendance scale. Too many people... would've been a "no" for her, but it appeared to be fairly normal, so Liv proceeded inside, making herself comfortable in a random seat. Then, she noticed the art supplies. Huh, that was something different. One could only assume that they'd be using them for the lesson. Otherwise, what were they here for. But then again, that begged the question... What could they possibly be doing during this hour (in Astronomy) that would require craft materials?....
At least it was something new. Liv didn't mind creativity and crafts, depending on their purpose.
"Hello, professor." Eyes forward, focusing on schoolwork. No kidding around.
She was frightfully boring these days. Sigh.

Abey really really didn't want to be late, but he was also really really really worried that maybe he actually WOULD be, because he had barely seen anyone he knew on the way up to the Astronomy tower, and he knew that class was meant to be RIGHT NOW and he HAD let time get away from him just a little bit.
And so that was the reason he ended up RUNNING FULL PELT into the classroom door as he reached it, essentially barging into the room.
"DidImakeit?????" he blurted out breathlessly, gasping for air (hey, that was a lot of stairs) and, actually, sweating a fair bit actually. Uhhhhh... it was kind of difficult to tell, but people were still taking their seats and all so Abey assumed he was still on time maybe sort of probably pleasedon'tshoutatmeteacherladypleeeeease.
He might have dithered over where he wanted to sit for a good long while, an anxious habit, had it not been for the feeling that everyone was STARING at him. So instead, actually, Abey moved straight towards JUNIA. He could see that there was a whole two people to each table thing, but there wasn't TIME to find someone he knew that was free, so instead Abey just went right ahead and joined Junia and the Slytherin boy she was sat with. He gave them both an nervous sort of smile in greeting too. Hi. Hello. Pleasedon'tmakemeleave.
Except there wasn't any extra chair there, so he tried to squish his way onto Junia's chair and share with her. That would be okay, right? He was only small you see actually so he could absolutely fit and they were family so it was all fine because family shared everything practically actually.
Hi.
