Yes, I'm aware that we're technically suitemates and I could just walk through the kitchen and ask, but if you're free sometime when the weather's clear - would you mind if I watched you fly and took some notes? Bit of a theory I'm trying to work on.

Sir,

I know I'm not enrolled in the flight class, but if you have a free period sometime this week - I was wondering if I could trouble you for a demonstration of your power? You mentioned biologically-generated combustion and chemical propulsion. I'd like to observe and take some notes for a project I'm working on.

Sure.

And as an added bonus, I'll let you sit in on a Flight class sometime so long as you share your modelling data capture with me.

Salaam,

That's precisely what I'm working on. Dr. MacTaggart gave me the idea to better understand mutant biology by looking at it on a practical level. I've seen mention of how your cybernetics work, but I haven't been able to find any technical papers on the method. I figure that means there aren't any, or they're somewhere I shouldn't be looking, so I figured the best way would be to go to the source.

Looking forward to the class.

If you had found schematic or hard physio data on my structures, that would mean that somebody's been incredibly lax.

And going to the source is generally a very good idea.

Let me talk to the Flight class, give them some head's up. I'll get back to you with when you can sit in and observe.

Salaam,
Haroun

Theory? I flap my wings and fly, no different from an eagle except that I'm bigger. But if you really want to watch me fly, then I reckon it's no problem.
