He, unlike so many others, was quite comfortable in this unusual environment and the uncanny but subtle smirk he word as he continued to address the class was an indication of his amusement to those observant enough to take notice. As always, there was a methodology to his madness. Well...usually there was. 85%? "For those of you who do not know me, I am Professor Flamsteed - although you may also call me Professor Airey if you so please." The Admiral, well, that was a little selfish bonus to those who wished to call him that. He wouldn't deny anyone the opportunity to do so. "Let's begin today's lesson with a brief discussion about why we study astronomy. What makes humanity look up and want to study the heavens? Furthermore, why do you think it is a subject that young witches and wizards are required to take here at Hogwarts?"

At least for the first five years of their education at least. Although, if it was up to him, it would be for all seven. But the man was just a tad biased.

OOC: Class has officially begun! Please do not post arriving late unless you are willing to accept whatever IC consequences that come your way!

You do not need to wait for Professor Flamsteed to call on your student to answer, just go ahead and have your character raise their hand and assume that he has done so.

Got a question? Please do not hesitate to VM or PM me. Or if it is IC go right ahead and ask it of Professor Flamsteed.

Class will resume as soon as I get the chance to reply to everyone - most likely in 24 ish hours.


Blanket in full use. No way would he suffer this cold for an education he would never need in stars and planets and tornadoes and lint rollers and the like.

His name tag sat right there on his desk (tho surely his Head of House new him by NOW).

"They study it because it's unknown and people don't like not knowing things." It was kinda like asking a ton of questions when you met someone knew. Had to know all about them in case they were proper friend material or in the worst case, they could be really mean and need avoiding...or lesson teaching...but maybe not in such huuuuge ways as the feast.

Still not sorry but hind sight was 20/20. Should have listened to Amur, lured them somewhere lonely and decked 'em harder.
