"In a way, you're all riiiiight." Marion nodded, still smiling.. "A constellation is a formation of the stars, perceived as a design or a shape of some kind. Eighty-eight of the constellations are now recognized, a few of them more popular than the rest." Marion's eyes twinkled before she added, "And like someone pointed out rightly, Constellations are not reeeeal. They are a way to help us understand how the stars are aligned in the sky."
"Sinceee you all have an idea as tooooo what a constellation is, I would like you all darlings to name one constellation and tell me something about it." BEAM.
All of them were smart? HUFF. That was so an overstatement overly stated.
The Ravenclaw, still pouting mind you, crossed her arms and listened as the Astronomy Professor went around their answers, then gave hers, a simplified, brief summary somewhat of the responses tossed around by her classmates. 88? Already? See? Was something that supposedly did not exist grow to that number when it's not true in the first place? Professor Burbage was backing her up........HUH?! WHAT? Beezus eyes wiiiiiiiiiiideeeeeeneeeeeeeeed when she heard the woman said those words. From Kurumi's mouth it was hurtful, but from the Professor's, it was devastating.
That wasn't right. Constellations were true! Her father said it were, and that whenever she'd miss him, she would just find their constellation so it was true! It was true! Deep-breathing. More pouting.
Okay, okay. Maybe scientifically, it wasn't. But for her, it was reaaaaaaaaaaaal.
One constellation eh? She had 88 to choose from, so...which one?

... WELL, lookie here, Beezus! Apparently he was smart and that his answer was correct.

He pretended to listen on as Burbage began talking a string of nonsense. He couldn't understand why on Earth they were having to waste time learning about something that the Professor had just said didn't actually exist... pointless much?
'Ohhhhhh, HEEEaaaveeennnnns dears! Let us discuss the unciorn eating galaxy called Goblatronnnnnn. But, DEARSSSS! Letttt us be made awareee, that such a galaxxxyy doesn't actually exist. HEAVennnnss nooooo! I just want tooo wasteee your timee with all the useless knowwwledge I've gained in my GAAJJILLLONNN yeeeaarsss. Why YES Beezus, I ammm older than the universe itselfffff'
*back to reality*
Elijah's thoughts made him escape a slight snort, amused at himself and his head's own impression of the hilariously fun Astronomy Professor. Oh! Next question was up.
Elijah raised his hand, not one to miss the opportunity to provide some nonsense answer in the hope of earning some more house points, "Well, my perrrrssssonal favourite is the Burbage constellation," Elijah offered smiling. "It didn't exist," much like the other constellations, APPARENTLY, "until just now when I decided to create it. I trullly believe someone as awesomely intelligent as yourself deserves a constellation named after them, Professor." WINK.
He was so good at this class.
....Head turn to the constellation right violator....
He was kidding, right? Burbage Constellation? There was no such thing as Burbage constellation. Beezus EYED the Hufflepuff. He was definitely talking nonsense, and using their Professor's name in vain..
...hold on.....wait......freeze.....
He was giving senseless answers because the Astronomy Professor approved of it, and even delighted on it. Yeah, no offense Burbz, but yeah.. Clever, yes. That was very wise of you Hufflepuff. BUT...that was a very clear infringement to the list of constellations, a disgrace, a desecration. And nope, Beatrice Castell wasn't going to let you get away with that. She was a stargazer and that was a punch to her pride.
Oh Professor, I've got an answer! The Ravenclaw raised her hand,
"Professor Burbage, I believe there is the Elijah constellation," she started, shooting the
other Elijah with a furtive look. "
..It is also NOT real...and it is the MOST harmful constellation to the human eyes."
GLARE.
