The Seating Area Outside Professor Flamsteed's Office
Several comfortable looking black leather sofa chairs await you in the small nook outside of Professor Flamsteed's office. The walls are bare save for a framed magazine cover and a large map on the wall opposite of the sofa chairs. Since the Astronomy professor keeps his door shut at all times, you will need to knock if you wish to speak with him. You could try to remove the protective charms placed on the door and break in, but that would not be very wise on your part as you would walk away with lime green eyebrows that won't fade for days and hair growing out of your ears down to the floor. While you wait to be invited in, why not read the latest issue of one of the many astronomy magazines stacked neatly on the wooden coffee table? StarDate Observer or Meteorite Mementos anyone? Do be careful as you take a seat, though. Despite the valiant efforts of students last term you are likely to walk away with a sparkly pink bum thanks to some left over glitter wedged between the cushions.
OOC: Please post in this thread FIRST, by having your character knock on the door. When the professor is ready to invite you in, I will post here letting you know and then you can post in the office. You may RP with friends here, but please try to keep the chit chat to a minimum. Thank you!
Kace decided to go visit Professor Airey because he was really interested in Astronomy. I mean he wanted to try and make a career out of it outside of Hogwarts. He wondered what suggestions Professor Airey had for him. He took a deep breath as he approached the large door. He was pacing and wondered if he should knock. NO! He needed to because he was already here right?
He raised his hand and went.....
Knock Knock Knock!
After he did his friendly knocks he waited outside the chairs for the professor to answer.
Sophie was here on important business. Aaaaaand also maybe to see if Flamsteed was going to murder her or give her detention from events at the feast last term, even though the man didn't know for CERTAIN that she had done anything - still, she preferred that she see him here and now in the morning on their first day back before she had a lesson with him so they could get any awkwardness out of the way.
Mostly so he wouldn't reprimand her in front of the entire class or glare at her or express inevitable disappointment in her even if he didn't mean to do so in front of everyone.
Approaching the office door, Soph listened first to see if she could hear voices inside - she couldn't hear much of anything, so she took a deep breath, knocked calmly on the door, and offered up in case he could hear her, "It's Sophie Brown, professor." So he could mentally prepare himself and there would be no surprises when he opened the door and his whole demeanor wouldn't dampen at the sight of her. Eh hem.

She was a third year now. Somehow she had managed to survive her first two years at Hogwarts. There had been times in astronomy class when she thought that she might not make it, but here she was, perfectly fine. Penelope had pulled through two whole years of astronomy lessons, so she could make it through the lessons this year too. She had baked cookies for Professor Flamsteed.
Knock knock knock.
Maybe she would be able to speak with Flamsteed without getting hurt, crying, or setting herself on fire for once.
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.
He knew he had to go to his Head of House sooner or later because he had given himself a goal this summer. Get his hat back as soon as possible. Because it was his hat and the man had it for YEARS now plus he could basically sue him for stealing but that requires paperwork which is something he doesn't like. He doesn't even like doing homework...
But he didn't came here just for that, he had other questions as well which was about the school so yeah... He loosened his Gryffindor tie a bit and calmly knocked on the door instead of banging on it like earlier years. He was fourteen now, not a little kid. He then turned around and sat down in a seat and waited.

Having always been more of a tea fellow, Airey surprised himself by making himself a mug of hot chocolate this morning. Blowing softly over the liquid's surface, he was just about to plop one of his gourmet marshmallow's on top - a parting gift from his sister all the way from France - when there came a knock at his door.
Oh! A visitor so soon? Not that he minded, of course. Mug and marshmallows down on his desk, Airey gave Pebbles a light pat on her rocky head and a salute to a still sleeping Hershel, the astronomer strut over to the door and pulled it open.
"Ah, good day, Mr. Lecium," he greeted the Hufflepuff. "What can I do for you this fine day? Perhaps a cup of hot chocolate or tea?"

She'd planned this meeting very well, clearly.
Sitting at his desk with muggle paints and tiiiiiiiny brushes to his right while a crisp white rag and cleaning solution was to his left, Airey sat with his magnifying headset set to the highest setting while he peered at his USS Enterprise NCC-1701 with the concentration of a mission control officer during a launch. He had a delicate operation ahead of him, repairing some of the paint that had been chipped off his latest find in the muggle flea markets. Poor sap had no clue he was selling a one of a kind and out of production collectible for so cheap. He had almost felt obligated to inform the bloke, but had refrained.
Picking up the brush with the smallest point and unscrewing the grey paint, he nearly jumped out of his skin when the knock came on his door. "Come on in, Miss Brown," he called back, giving his wand a flick towards the door to unlock it. "But do so quietly and sloooooowly."
No loud sudden movements as he tried to fix this one spot...
OOC: you may post in the office now :3 welcome!

"What's that, Pebbles? You fancy a walk?" the astronomer nonchalantly asked his pet rock while sticking his bookmark into his novel and setting it on the coffee table. Summoning her pink leash from the hook on Hershel's cage, he had just grasped it out of the air when there came a knocking.
On second thought, the walk could wait. Especially when he smelled what he thought he smelled.
Leaping up from the sofa, he walked towards the door and swung it open. "Miss Wright, hello," he smiled nervously. He hadn't done anything this time too, right? "What can I do for you?"

Well, that certainly had been a pleasant sounding knock. Setting his tea down on his desk and moving some paperwork to the side, Airey stretched his legs and walked towards the door to open it.
And was incredibly surprised when he saw who was on the other side of the door.
Mr. Hirase. Sitting quietly after performing a polite knock on the door. Well, this was looking promising - in terms of a professional setting. The astronomer was not foolish enough to think that the boy would ever lose his fire or Gryffindor sass, but if he was learning how to channel it a bit better...well...that certainly was progress!
"Good day, Mr. Hirase," he greeted, trying to keep the tone of surprise far from his voice. "What can I do for you today?"

He was about to grab a magazine to flip through when the opened up and he awkwardly leaned half over the seat while reaching for the magazine. He cleared his throat and sat back without the magazine. Good day? yeah yeah whatever, he didn't came here to chit-chat.
Getting up from the seat with glitter on his pants which he didn't realise, the Gryffindor rolled his eyes as he walked to the door. "You know very well why i'm here" so maybe his manners had changed a bit for the better, he still needed to work on his tone... "And i also have a few questions" he added as he looked inside the office. "Plus i want hot chocolate , now let me in"

Kace smiled and this is why he approved of Professor Airey. He always seemed cool and I mean offering him some hot chocolate it was cool in his book. "Ah hi Professor I am here to ask you a few questions." He didn't want people to know out here in the hall. He just wanted to know about his future and what not. He really wanted to study Astronomy and he was curious to know what careers he could make out if it.
Plus he never properly thanked him for his award last term. "And I would love some hot chocolate. Thank you." he smiled politely and wondered if he should step into his office or not. He just waited patiently for the Professor's say so.

Rorie walked up to what she figured was the Astronomy professor's office. Didn't get the grand tour, you see? Something else she wasn't familiar with was Astronomy itself. Didn't have it back her at old school. Dec would learn things on his own. She remembered how he happy he was to go to a school that actually had this course. Then again, Dec's version of Hogwarts wasn't lining up to her's yet.
No matter, she stood outside, looking around for Damien. Where was that weirdo? Probably got lost, or worse, flirting. Ugh, teen boys and their hormones. She kept hers on check, okay?? Ror set down the briefcase she got from the Room of Requirement on one of the seats. Nothing was in it. She just had it for emphasis. Her hair was also tightly pulled back into a ponytail all professional-like. The things she does for this kid, honestly.

This was going to be the term that she didn't get hurt in astronomy lessons. She could do it. It couldn't be too hard to survive at least one lesson... No, she couldn't do it. Maybe this wasn't going to be the term when she finally started to have good experiences in astronomy classes.
Professor Flamsteed was here! She was going to die! No, she only needed to worry about that when it was time for the activity in astronomy class. Right now she was just here to deliver cookies, and maybe talk to Professor Flamsteed. There was no way that she could get hurt... Was there? Cookies. Think about cookies. Remember to breathe. "Hello, Professor Flamsteed." If she couldn't even speak to him without worrying that she was somehow going to get killed in astronomy class, what would happen in class? She wasn't going to die, because she was a Ravenclaw, and only Hufflepuffs died this young.
Cookies. She was here to give cookies to Flamsteed. "I baked cookies for you!" Penelope presented the cookies to him. Everything was going to be okay until the activity at the next astronomy lesson. For once she might actually be able to make it through a conversation with Professor Flamsteed.

Damien was serious. It was not a mood the boy often was in, but this meeting with his head of house – Celebrated Astronomer Airey Flamsteed – was not to be taken lightly, especially not if he wanted to get out of wearing those awful, horrendous, shapeless, gross robes. So he put on his nicest dark blue suit – It was Prada, thank you – with a crisp dress shirt, matching tie and the silver tie clip his mother had bought him when he’d gotten into Hogwarts. The final touch was the careful styling of his dark blond hair.
All in all, Damien thought he looked cool, well put together and ready to “lawyer up” as the saying went. A thought that gave him confidence as he walked up to the Professor’s office, where he was pleased to spot his Partner in Crime already waiting for him.
“Miss Hazlewood,” He said, nodding his head curtly to her. And then he caught sight of the briefcase and he had to bite his lip to keep from laughing. “Knock, if you would?” Damien added, after gathering himself and clearing his throat in that way he always did when nervous.
“nice briefcase, btw.” The boy just couldn't help himself.

The pink-headed girl was pacing back and forth trying to finish off the alter ego she would design for a moment like this. Hmm...something around the lines of "Lucinda Stone, attorney at law!" Yes, yes. Lucinda was a powerful woman. One who does not take for an answer, no! JUSTICE FOR THOSE WITH GOOD FASHION TASTE.
Lucinda Rorie was about to set her bum down in one of the black seats when she finally spotted her partner strutting down the hall. ABOUT TIME. Always fashionably late, these clients were. He did look stunning, though. Not bad, Day, not bad. She suppressed a little smile, reaching up to dust some swag off his shoulder. "Mister Anderson-Belfort." She said, Lucinda-ly, nodding back.
Responding with a very stern 'Certainly', Ror walked over to the office door and gave two loud knocks. "Thanks," She said, checking herself in a reflection, "It's Gucci." Smirk.

Yes, thank you, he had needed that dirt off his shoulder. So considerate his partner was, and so stylish too. He had to admit she looked pretty pretty with her hair pulled back like that, not that he was going to mention it. Not the time, nor the place. “Thank you.” He politely said, obviously thanking her for the dusting.
He collected himself as Rorie knocked, adjusting the cuffs of his shirt, messing with the knot of his tie. He knew well enough he was immaculate, but he couldn’t help the fussing. “We Gucci, They Polo,” Damien paraphrased, smirking right back. He needed to make a mental note to ask her where she’d bought it, if she’d bought it and whether or not he could borrow it, because it was flyyyyyyy.
“Just follow my lead, yeah?” Was he reassuring himself or Rorie? Damien wasn’t sure.

Alas. That had been a short lived glimmer of - he wasn't about to use the word hope because that implied the worse - change in Mr. Hirase. Chuckling, he stepped aside and gestured for the young man to enter.
"To discuss your future career in astronomy, I take it," he replied. Hey, if the kid was going to throw sass in the man's direction he might as well throw some as well. In fairness. "Come on in."

"Hopefully I have answers for you," he saluted with an amused chuckle, stepping aside so the Hufflepuff could pass. "Hot chocolate just finished preparing itself. Spare mug on the coffee table. Please help yourself."

Hello. Yes. Those had been established so he simply nodded his head and offered her a small salute.
COOKIES!? Well, this was certainly a pleasant, and not at all unexpected, surprise. "Oh thank you, Miss Wright. I always appreciate the gesture," he said as he eagerly accepted them and immediately popped one into his mouth to begin chewing nice and slowly. Aaaaaaaaaah baked goods aaaaaaaaaah delicious aaaaaaaaah...
"Did you wish to come in and chat? Or simply stopping by to give me these?"

After the not-so-pleasant welcome back feast... And the even more not-so-pleasant welcome back sleep... Zander had been entirely too exhausted to even get himself to visit the one Professor that he probably needed to visit the most: His head of house. You know, despite the great honor that everyone assumed of a Prefect's job. It really wasn't all that it was thought up to be. Firstly, he had to sit in a separate compartment from his best mate after disappointing the heck out of him, THEN he was bombarded with people at the feast-- again, not getting to sit with his best mate, the welcome party was no different either because he did his job all wrong and made a kid leave by accident (still didn't get the chance to talk to his best mate by the way!!!), AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF when he went to bed he woke up in an itchy nightmarish state.
Then of course the following morning wasn't any better either because he happened to have a not-so-pleasant run in with fellow Prefect, Marigold McAlistor. And oh yeah. He almost nearly got punched in the face by said Prefects boyfriend, so that almost happened too.
And essentially, fifth year was a living nightmare and there just wasn't any time to make this visit. And that was his excuse because really, these were all just excuses. Incase Professor Flamsteed asked or anything. Which he was sure the Professor wouldn't.
Except for now. Because now he'd have to make time. Walking up to the door, he gave it a couple of gentle taps-- not because he was really that cautious but more because knocking took a lot of energy, which he didn't have-- before walking back to sit in a chair. Merlin. He must've looked like he hadn't gotten sleep in days! (Which really, he hadn't. Had to have constant vigilance when you were dormmates with the kid who was out to kill you.)

His entire tie collection laid out on the floor of his office, with his hot muggle iron on its table off to the side, the astronomer was on his hands and knees - shoes off - while he inspected each tie up close and personal. No, seriously. His nose was a hair away from the soft, and expensive, fabric of his ties.
"If only I had found my Carolina blue silk tie," he muttered to himself while making a mental note to put up the missing poster once again. He was just about to select a red tie, Alizarin crimson to be precise, and held it in his hand when he heard the feeble knocking upon his door. Nervous little first year? He ought to go greet the poor thing properly...but...tie...
Removing his wand from its holster, he gave it a flick to open up the door. "Come on it, but leave your shoes at the door," he said, not even bothering to look up to see which nervous first year it was.

Hehe. Lux was on a mission to see her second favourite Professor who was juuuust beaten out by Professor Culloden because Potions and mentor. Well, she hoped he would be her mentor with all the assistance and advice he was giving her.
Making her way to the waiting area outside of her Honorary Head of House's office, she knocked on his door and hoped that he would be out to see her soon. She had a question she wanted to ask him and hoped that the answer to it would be one that she wanted.
Nicole decided to go and visit the Astronomy professor. She was interested in Astronomy, and it was also one of the subjects she had been looking forward to most before she came to Hogwarts. The lessons she has had so far attracted her to the subject even more. She wanted to talk to the eccentric professor about stars and astronomy stuff. Nicole approached the seating area outside his office excitedly.
She knocked on the door a couple of times, making sure the professor heard it. While the girl waited for him to answer, she realized that she did not bring her book with her to spend time. Sighing, she sat down on a chair, simply looking around at the maps and magazines.

The man in question actually was not in his office, but was on his way back as the Hufflepuff knocked on the door. He was not too far away though and was making his way up the stairs with a dull KLUNK THUD KLUNK as he went. The noise, not belonging to his footsteps, were those of his trust sidekick Pebbles returning from their daily walk and was being dragged behind the suited man as he entered the seating area.
"Oh, Miss Carrington," he greeted. He really should put a note on the door when he stepped out. "I hope you were not kept waiting too long. How can I help you?"

The astronomy professor was NOT in the middle of playing with his mecha models while sitting on the floor of his office all crisscross applesauce and using some outdated textbooks as a city skyline. Nope. Not at all.
Which was why he did not accidentally kick over one of his book towers in surprise when he heard the knocking and also why he did not go to answer his door with one of the figurines clutched in his right hand as he peered around the door to see who had come to visit.
"Hello...there...hi," he stammered, moving his arm behind his back to hide the mecha from sight. "What can I do for you, Miss Holloway?" Ahem.

Agatha was not there because she wanted to be. Of course not. Why in the world would she go see the Head of Weirdos Gryffindor house? She had nothing to discuss with him, but apparently she had done something wrong in his lesson or whatever.
Honestly, she had no time for this. But knowing she'd get in even more trouble in case she didn't show up - because this man was friends with her uncle, unfortunately - the Slytherin lazily made her way to the area outside professor Flamsteed's office.
Knock.
That's right. Just once. And it wasn't all that loud either, because the fifth year hoped that way the leader of the weirdos wouldn't hear it and she could leave with the excuse she had knocked and no one had answered. He wouldn't be able to blame her then.
It hadn't been a second after she knocked when she turned away to leave because he was taking too long already and maybe she could disappear before he opened the door.

...What was that sound?
Perplexed, Lux turned away from the door and was surprised to see the Professor walking with his pet rock. by this point she was so used to Pebbles that she didn't even register how strange a pet rock was. But then Bay had given Louis a pet rock a few years ago and it was adorable like everything else he did.
"I wasn't waiting long," she assured him in case he felt she had been there for at least half an hour or something. Besides, she didn't mind waiting really. "Well, I was wanting to ask you something..."

Nicole's green eyes were scanning the area. They paused on framed magazine cover hanging on the wall. That was the professor! He looked handsome up there with all the planets surrounding him. She stood up and walked over to the said wall for a closer look, not noticing the bit of sparkly pink glitter stuck on her bum.
That was when she heard something tumbling to the ground from inside. Nicole turned her attention to the door instead, hoping nothing dangerous was going on inside, and was relieved to find the Astronomy professor peeking out of his office, looking awkward, but not hurt or anything. She was completely oblivious to the fact that he was hiding something behind his back.
"Hello, professor," she said, giving him a smile. "Nothing much, but do you have time for a chat?" If he was busy at the moment, she could certainly leave. It was nothing of importance, anyway.

Looking over some files while leaning against Hershel's cage, he looked up and marched towards the door once he heard the knock. Checking his sundial watch for the time and nodding approvingly. Almost right on time - assuming it was who he expected it would be on the other side of the door. Tucking the paperwork under his arm, he swung open the door and offered a small smile to the back of the Slytherin's head.
"Leaving so soon?" he chuckled. "We haven't even had a cup of tea."
SPOILER!!: Lux!

"Stellar," he applauded - mostly himself if he was being honest - while making his way towards the door to his office. "Oh? Well, ask away! Unless you feel this may be a rather lengthy conversation, in which case we should step inside my office and discuss matters over some tea." Or hot chocolate. Apple cider? Whatever the young witch's choice of brew was.
SPOILER!!: Nicole!

Waving with his fingers towards the Ravenclaw, he peeked over his shoulder at his not-a-play-area and then snapped his head back around to her. "I...uh...yes...yes I do," he nodded as he tried to squeeze himself out of the door without revealing too much of the inside. Fumbling around for his wand, he gave it a flick towards the floor and instantly his mecha models began to levitate back into their proper storage positions. "Please, ahem, do come in," he said, subtly gesturing inside.
OOC: you may post inside the office now :3 chances are there will be some of those mecha still floating around if you want Nicole to react accordingly

Snort. Professor Flamsteed was funny so she couldn't help but laugh. He really was a kid at heart. The sound of a drink was nice, but Lux felt that this wouldn't be a long conversation and didn't want to waste his time when he probably had other things to do. "Well, tea sounds lovely but this shouldn't take too long, so out here is good. Do you know that I'm an Honorary Lion because Professor Bentley made me one before she left? That makes you my Honorary Head of House...and I was wondering if because of this I could use the Gryffindor Common Room too." She even had Gryffindor robes!

Well then.
"I thought you weren't there." Agatha informed professor Flamsteed casually as she turned around and shrugged.
The Slytherin wasn't ready to be told off for getting Zander to perform the spell for her, so maybe if she could stall the conversation she could get away without having to hear any of it. "I suppose a cup of tea would be good." If that was all he wanted to go through, it'd be fine by her.
