SPOILER!!: Junebug!

POSTERS! Even though that revelation actually made sense and had been expected actually, what with all the art supplies in the room and the whole 'getting in a group and choosing a planet' thing, Abey was still flooded with relief that they would be getting CREATIVE and not just sitting and writing and reading things. It was always a worry when it came to Astronomy, because he didn't really know how practical the lessons could get. But APPARENTLY they used to be really super fun and even include spells. Either way, spells or posters were fine with Abraham Botros Jr.

Just PLEEEEASE no boring plain old no-art no-magic only-writing-down-theory lessons (ever).

Anyways. Junia was already ON THE CASE and talking a lot of sense actually. Like noting down the colours! For the artwork! AND ABEY GOT TO CHOOSE THE SUPPLIES!

"Okay!" he chirped at once, immediately abandoning his half-hearted attempt to reach for his bag to get out his textbook. And then, in the blink of an eye, he had slid down from the chair and under the table again, only to appear back on his feet again on the other side. Before hurrying off, he pointed at the picture of the solar system on the desk. Saturn in particular, because obviously actually.

"I'm going to get lots of yellows, and beiges, and golds, and maybe some browns, because it's kind of almost like it's in a sepia tone, don't you think?" That was a question actually posed to Junia, but Abey gave her no time to respond. "And actually I see blues and greys in here, too, do you see them? And just the palest shade of periwinkle, do you see?" He seemed not to notice having slipped right back into Arabic for the tail-end of that, for instead of acknowledging it, Abey just flashed Junia a bright smile and, without further ado, actually headed off to get some supplies actually.

And he returned a few minutes later, positively laden with THINGS.

"I made sure to get all those colours and everything, but there was so much choice I decided to get something in every colour, just in case!" Cue the big toothy grin. "And some black poster paper in case you wanted to make the background like space. I think that's what everyone is going to do. But WHAT if we made our poster like a GINOURMOUS Saturn, bigger than us even, and the Saturn IS the poster, and we could write our facts out like those lines of colour across the planet, or on the rings!" At this point, Abey finally paused for air, providing Junia a chance to get a word in edgeways should she want to take up the golden opportunity.

Look. CREATIVITY was where Abey could SHINE, and he was very excited to have the chance.

ANYWAY-Saturn! "Saturn it is!" All smiles and nodding in agreement here. Junia even pulled her paper closer and began jotting down the few facts Abey had provided for them and the few others had shared. Quote: SATURN -BIG -PRETTY -RINGS -HAS A STRONG PULL That was a pretty good start as far as she was concerned. "I bet we could look that part up in our books! We should also note the colors for our poster and maybe even come up with a slogan worthy of Saturn's awesomeness." Yes, that. "You want to get the supplies, and I'll do the researching?" Because Abey liked art just as much and he'd pick good paints and markers, and also because she knew reading was sometimes difficult for him and she didn't want him to feel bad about it. POSTERS!
