Second Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning

It was late morning, nearing noon, and Ender had finished his morning exercises a while ago. He'd sat down to work in his room afterwards, but this sense of-- moroseness he had been trying to avoid wouldn't leave him alone, making him restless and a little irritable. Jane's commentary about that hadn't really helped either.

Which was why right now he was curled up on the couch in the common room, with Animal Planet playing some documentary about Brazilian tree-frogs in the background. He'd taken the datapad Ben had given him for his birthday with him, and he was poking idly through stats for alien races he'd never heard of before.

He was still a little restless, but at least he was less irritable. The calm, he could fake.

Tony snorted and rolled his eyes. "It was a trial an error thing."

"Considering you're still alive, I suppose I'll have to take that as read," Ender said. "No strange twitches when you hear a thunderclap...?"

"Not to my knowledge." Wait until Thor showed up, though.

"Should I keep an eye on you during the next thunder storm?"

"Oh," Ender said, with a brief smile that wasn't completely mirthful, "I didn't have to worry about electrocuting myself at that age. I was reprogramming school computers."

Tony snorted. "I'm not allowed to touch the school computers here."

"I'm 17," Ender said, matter-of-factly. "It wouldn't really be a challenge at this age."

Which was probably a good thing, because the few times he did consider things a challenge...

"Even the hardlight projectors?"

"...think you could replicate it?" TONY, NO.

Ender blinked. "If I had the right tech, I'd be able to riff up the software for it."

"It would be a good training device," Tony said, already making plans. "For the suit."

"Tony," Ender said, solemnly, "Don't use it for evil."

"I can safely say I wasn't planning to." HE WASN'T HANK PYM. WHOEVER THAT WAS.
