Test Flight
Four Freedoms has been the sight of plenty of chaos and big events, but the lobby, anyway, is usually a pretty sedate place. Not today. Today, just past school letting out for the holiday, its the site of a lot of noise and commotion.
Daniel got his early Christmas present today in the form of a note sent to the school, to be given to him on his way out, telling him not to head home, but downtown instead. Today, for the first time, he's been given access to the F4 space flight simulator without supervision.
By the time the way too slow bus got there, he was off like a shot, barely remembering not to use any super speed around the other kids.

"How was school?" Kristoff asks politely just before the door opens at the appropriate point. He steps out and starts unlocking a few systems.

This always takes /forever/. There's no end to the security in here. And they always want to know about school.
"Oh, it was alright. We jus' watched some movies and stuff. I don't know why they bothered not just givin' us today off too. One day of school before a holiday is jus' dumb."

"Bureaucracy, no doubt," Kristoff mutters. "If you need anything, you of course know how to use the communication system."

"Oh yeah, no problem. Valeria around?" Ok, so she'd seemed to get less interested in flight simulators as she got older, or maybe just hanging out with a kid 2 years younger, but she was still the kid around closest to his age who could appreciate these things.

"I believe she had some errands, but will be back later this afternoon." Kristoff looks over things. "All right, Daniel. You are clear now."

"Yahoo!"
He virtually launches himself into the simulator, not bothering to use the stairs when a touch of super strength and a jump will do fine. He takes the controls with considerably more finesse, punching in the activation codes.
"Thank you, Kristoff!" he remembers, after about twenty seconds.

Kristoff actually smiles at that. "You are welcome." And he leaves hi to it.
