How helpful it was going to be to get him talking about the subject of magic in space and other related things. How...

"Do you practice yoga as well, Mr. Flamsteed?" Jasper began to inwardly congratulate himself on choosing this particular astronomer to pay him a visit. He opened the doors and led them into the vast and darkspace of the space room and straight into the Anti-gravity chamber.

DOORS WERE OPENING!

He somehow resisted an encore presentation of his flamboyant dance moves and nearly missed the department head's question as the doors swung open and revealed the glorious dark abyss before them. Was that...was this...were they...

He may (read definitely) have ~~manly~~ squealed at the beauty of their surroundings. In fact, although he would never admit it, there were tears forming in his eyes as he looked upon what he had only dreamed of seeing as a boy. It was almost as though his childhood fantasy of becoming an astronaut - a dream that had been crushed many years ago in a training accident - had become a reality. Only a small part of him in the back of his mind had already acknowledged that this was NOT real and it was only the production of some stellar magical bells and whistles...but the little boy inside him...that little boy that refused to grow up and put imagination over everything else...wanted to convince himself that it was real.

Even if just for the afternoon.

"HUH?" he grunted suddenly, returning his attention to the department head. "Oh...I...er...my..." How exactly DID he introduce Medea to others. She wasn't his...that word that starts with a w and ends in 'ife'...but she wasn't just his girlfriend either. "...partner..." That was right, right? Anyway. "...practices yoga quite often and has taught me a thing or two..."

Wiping the eyes now. Casually. Grown man over here. Excuse him.
