Vora grinned. “Sounds like an excellent test of skills that could be quite interesting,” she said. “I was a lot older before I started really doing heavy mathematics, but when I was a kid no matter what else was happening in my life I couldn’t get enough of learning. If there was a book to read, I’d manage a way to read it. But then again it helps that I have an eidetic memory. It’s the only way I managed to get into Starfleet Academy. I could catch up to my peers in very little time.”

These were set to the side and lined up with the possibilities before he reinserted them for testing. It was obvious it wasn’t his first puzzle from his Aunt as he worked out a proper method to solve it.
“Make sure you fully explore your options, Jasper. You might end up finding something at the Vulcan Science Academy or even in other areas. Fixating on one parth isn’t optimal.”
Jasper shrugged off her wise advice, his attention still on the puzzle. His mother just shook her head.
“You say that all the time, but he never listens.” Cassandra was obviously amused by the fact.
“He is still young and idealistic. I want him to be confident with what he wants and carve his own path rather than follow ours.” Avik admitted, her attention briefly looked toward the direction the waitress had vanished in.

Vora watched with quiet interest at the interactions, musing about her own reasons for joining. “He can always change his mind,” she said quietly. “And maybe the reasons for doing something changes but the path is still the right one.” She shrugged. “Life can hold a lot of surprises.”
