This is where you can come and gaze at the stars in hogwarts, on the Astronomy tower. This is for those of you who do not take astronomy class, but still like to gaze at the stars with a friend or maybe by yourself. Have fun.

 Professor Kay— Apparition Class & Flying Class
I climbed the stairs slowly which led to the highest point of the castle, the astronomy tower. My hands moving against the railing on the side.. images flashing in mind of that night where the battle took place. The tower was falling.. falling slowly because of the dark magic that was used on it. But now it was rebuilt and standing tall. As i reached the end of the stairs i walked over to the platform that extended beyond the walls of the astronomy tower, the very same platform Albus Dumbledore fell off. I placed my hand on the railings in front of me and stared up at the night sky. Silently, just gazing upon the beauty.

 Harmony Trumarie...
Harmony wrapped a scarf around her neck, she was used to the cold and grew an slight immunity but still those icy winds could make one sick. She pulled a white bag, her candy bag, one of seven. This one was special it had her most favourite candies and the bag had an extendable charm, cast by her grandmother. She stared at the sky looking at the constellations eating Jelly Slugs.
"Stars are made of star dust, they form and explode. What a wonderful cycle of life and death, one that never ends...yet a sad one too..." Harmony mumured to herself.

Kalle climbed her way up the stairs, constantly glancing around at the almost perfect reconstruction of the tower. Her fingers traced a small fissure in one of the stones, one that had been there since she went to school here. She closed her eyes for a moment, then continued up the stairs in silence. When she reached the top, she spotted Kaydot standing on the same ledge she had planned to stand on. Assuming he had come up here to be in solitude, she remained quiet as she stepped on to the ledge as well, fixing her eyes upon Sagittarius.

Still staring up and gazing at the beautiful starry sky lit by the moonlight i saw a figure approach the same ledge i was standing on. The figure stood on my left side and through the corner of my eye i noticed it was Professor Kalle. Beautiful, isn't it? I asked the Professor while continuing to stare up at the sky.

Meiko walked up to the Astronomy Tower, with her scarf and beanie on as well as a navy blue sweater and her plaid skirt. She noticed that some people were also stargazing. She walks up closer to see the stars and sighed as she watched the sky with a vacant expression on her face.

Alex walked up the astronomy tower, when she was there she sat in the corner and started looking at the stars. The stars where the reason she loved the night, because without the night there would be no stars, no moon. she stared at the stars for a while

Lena
Lena slowly climbed the stairs to the tower in the darkness, happily humming twinkle twinkle little star as she did. Having a bit of trouble seeing her way, she took her wand out of her bag. Lumos! Ah, much better! She said to herself, as the stairs got illuminated and she could now see where she was going. When she arrived to the top, she walked over to the ledge, pulling on her jacket as she felt the breeze coming in from the opening from which she could look up at the dark, starry, wondrous and beautiful sky. Nox! The light from her wand disappeared and she stood there, with nothing but the stars for light. Lena searched the sky, looking at its stars, trying to find constellations which she remembered from all the stargazing she had done with muggle friends and friends from the wizarding world. She racked her brain, trying to remember, and she thought of her zodiac sign; Pisces. She searched the sky, trying to find it, and when she finally did, she looked at it for a few moments, at its stars, imagining lines which connected the starts together and so she could see the image more clearly. Lena tried to remember another and suddenly thought of a bear.. That idea led her to remembering a constellation of a bear. What was it? Oh yeah! Ursa Major! She searched the sky once more and found it, admiring it deeply for a few minutes. Lena continued on thinking of constellations she knew, each time trying to locate them, the cold night breeze gently hitting her face.

Kalle glanced toward Professor Kay and smiled. 'Absolutely stunning,' she said, becoming lost in the vast amounts of stars above her. After a moment or two, she asked, 'Do you have a favourite star?'

Callysto made her way up the steps at a leisurely pace. When she reached to top she saw several students and two of her co-worker's, but no sign of Nam yet. She hummed tunelessly as she found a semi-secluded portion of the tower, away from unwanted ears though she was certain Nam would see her as soon as he arrived.
She looked up, the stars were breathtaking. She suddenly regretted passing up the opportunity to take Astronomy while she was a student.

I looked up at the sky to examine the stars carefully and to choose a favourite so i called answer Kalle's question. I really like Pisces. It's stunning. I said to her. Just like you. I turned towards her and gave her a warm smile.

Meiko was so engrossed watching the star-spangled sky that ignored her surroundings. She suddenly remembered why she was there, so she took out her book on astronomy even though she doesn't take astronomy class, she knows some information on the heavenly bodies.
"I've been hearing some news about adding the zodiac signs... is it true? Ophiuchus, was it?" she said to herself, flipping the pages of her book, constantly looking at the stars also.

Kalle nodded knowingly at Kay's choice, and her face flushed an extreme red when he compared her to it. She smiled at him and said, 'Thank you.' Her mind ran over a billion other things she could have replied with, all of them sounding terribly cheesy. She bowed her head, unsure if what she had said was even worthy of how euphoric and charmed she felt.

Ravenclaw, 3rd Year
Nam drew harsh breaths as he took the steps two at a time. By the time he got to the top he was crawling. He tumbled onto his back and heaved for awhile, then let his head fall on its side so he could look for his сестра. He doubted she'd recognize him in this darkness - he was wearing a hooded robe, hiding both his unmistakable red hair and his lanky limbs (though his stick ankles and long shoes were pointing out of the bottom, that probably wasn't enough). He spotted her on the balcony with a couple of pillars nearly seperating it from the rest of the room. A good place for privacy.
He pushed himself across the floor with his aching legs, past several people's feet --- the flirting Professors K&K, his hopelessly romantic house-mate Meiko, an older Gryffindor he had yet to meet... until he was looking up at Callysto. He pulled himself into sitting position so his face was in shadow again and let his legs dangle out between the railing. "Hello. Sorry I'm late. Again." His voice was laced with guilt.
