Every now and then we all run into a spot of gossip that’s just too good to ignore. This time it’s the Astronomy Professor that’s fallen under our radar. We’ve all heard the tragic tale of the missing pet, actually thought to have been done away with by a jealous Headmistress who could never get her own pet to be nearly as well behaved (we’ve all seen the cat droppings swept into the corner, might want to check on those house elves) but isn’t Flamsteed taking things a bit too far?

He was seen handing out fliers at the start of term feast, giving scant regard to the personal space of the others, sitting at the table.

In his desperation to find the pebble named ‘Rock’ he was willing to recklessly put his students in danger under the guise that they were having a class in which precautionary measures were ‘well thought up’. A likely story but we ALL know how it is. Get a few children flying above the lake, have them shot down, at least one of them is bound to sink before the man eating squid can get to them. Hoping to get an extra pair of eyes at the bottom of the lake Airey? Tsk tsk.

We’ve also gotten reports of the man wibbling around the castle, throwing his tears at anyone who’ll listen. Heartbreaking, tragic but false. It’s no secret the man has always been an attention seeker. Isn’t it possible this is his latest stunt to sneak a few extra cuddles out of a certain Defense Professor? Or is this all an elaborate plan to set up a rock finding, spirit lifting séance with the blonde Divination Belle?

We know your games Airey and here at the Aparecium, we’re on to you.
