The soft hum of Juniper's computer filled the air as Henry sat on her floor, his back against the bed, the faint glow of the monitor casting a pale light on his focused face. On the desk, several flight manuals lay scattered across an open notebook, filled with Henry's scribbled notes. Juniper sat on her bed, her legs crossed beneath a blanket, looking over his work. The room felt like a quiet cocoon, the kind of place where Henry could escape the outside world and focus entirely on the complex world of aviation that Juniper had drawn him into and got him more curiuos about.
Juniper was laying on her stomach on her bed near where Henry sat on the floor, leaning against her bed with her head resting on her forearms. She watched as Henry flipped through a flight manual, his brows furrowed in concentration. A small smile tugged at her lips, watching him so intensely focused. He was always so determined when it came to learning new things, and it was something she admired about him.
"How's it going?" She asked, tilting her head slightly to catch a glimpse of his notebook.
"Good. I think I'm starting to understand the basics of aviation." He replied, flipping to another page in the manual.
"I know you just wanna jump into the fun stuff like flying the Man Copter, but there's a lot more to it than just that. And I think that's part of why Ray won't let you fly the Man Copter, or teach you." She said, looking over the pages in his notebook. "It's a lot of responsibility. There's a lot to memorize and understand. But once you do, it's like riding a bike. You never forget how."
Henry nodded, closing the manual and looking up at her. "Yeah, I guess you're right." He said with a sigh, leaning back against the bed and staring up at the ceiling. "How do you easily memorize all of this, anyway?"
Juniper shrugs. "I dunno, I just find it interesting. Maybe because it's so different from the superhero world. It's nice to have a break and just focus on something else. Plus I've been around machines and stuff like that my whole life. Helps to have a dad who's an inventor. So this kind of thing just comes naturally to me."
