Katherine had noted the... let's say, less gravity, as well as the winds and - the lint roller. She'd of course used it properly, without getting it near her neatly braided hair, and then picked a seat in the FIRST row. The memory of the first charms lesson was still fresh in her mind, but Professor Flamsteed looked like a whole different person. She was clearly eager for this class (not so much for the winds), but lo and behold! They were provided with space blankets! Her face lit up at that, and she eagerly opened it to snuggle beneath. Ahhhhh, this was nice! She quickly did the parchment thing ('Katherine Moss'), and when it turned into a wooden plaque, a soft "Ohhh!" escaped her mouth. This was such a nice gesture and while she had initially thought that she wouldn't like astronomy, she would certainly like the professor, who began to talk, so she listened attentively.

Professor Flamsteed - yes, she knew that. Would the professor know she was Katherine Moss now? And who was even thick enough to confuse astronomy with astrology? They were two completely different topics - save for the fake use of stars in the fake science of astrology. And finally, they were asked the first question. However, she didn't answer right away. She wanted to see how things worked in this class.

SHE had a question too - they weren't supposed to do that weird salute, were they? She didn't think she could seperate her fingers like that.

Anyway, answers. She listened carefully to her classmates. Some had really neat answers, and it was her turn to answer at last. She had to say something unique... so she raised her hand and said "To add to what my classmates said," she said in a clear tone confidently, "we study it to time some potions ingredients. Polyjuice is a good example of that: we need to pick fluxweeds at full moon." Hear that, class? She had been a student here for barely a few days, and she already knew about Polyjuice AND potion ingredients.

"And, I think, to know our limits, because we can only advance as far as the universe itself."

Did the professor like her answer?
