Setbacks in Astronomy

[alt_percy]

Professor Sinistra paired the class off for the first Astronomy project last Friday. I was matched with Penelope Clearwater. Haven't worked with Miss Clearwater before, but I am rather disconcerted that she failed to show up for the meeting we were supposed to have at the library this afternoon, to work on a starchart together. I hope that I didn't note the time down in my calendar incorrectly; if so, I will have to give her an apology when I see her next. I'd planned to grab a quick moment at the telescopes tonight while patrolling the Astronomy Tower on prefect rounds, but the sky is overcast, and so I had no luck there.

Transfiguration and Charms are going well. I wasn't able to get my Ancient Runes revisions done until late this afternoon, however, as I was counseling a few rather homesick firsties, one after another, throughout the weekend. The worst of the homesickness does seem to be ebbing, however.

Prefects meeting tomorrow night. Must get that potions essay knocked off beforehand.

Hello, Wease Percy.

Hello, Mr. Malfoy Draco. What an expected pleasure to see you pop up here. Are things settling in for you satisfactorily here at Hogwarts?

[alt_draco]

Quite satisfactorily. I would like to make it known that as a prefect, you've made me feel more at home in this school than any other.

[alt_percy]

That's quite kind of you to say, considering that we haven't had much of a chance to speak together as of yet. I trust that we will in the future.

You're the only prefect who's left a welcoming message in the journals, as far as I can see.
