Chapter 423
The DragonJet was quiet, the fire’s glow warm against their attentive faces. Jack swiped the projection again, revealing an intricate network of planets, moons, and debris spinning in cosmic rhythm.“Now,” Jack said softly, “all of this — atmospheres, magnetic shields, orbital paths — it’s not just mechanics. It’s influence, interaction. Cause and effect. Life doesn’t happen in isolation.”Matilda tilted her head. “So planets… teach systems?”Jack nodded. “Exactly. Look at how Earth’s tilt interacts with the Sun, producing seasons. How tides guide currents, currents guide climate, climate guides life. Every action echoes, every effect shapes another. Connection is the engine of growth.”Lena’s eyes widened. “Like humans?”“Yes,” Jack said gently. “We’re systems. Microcosms of these worlds. Our families, our schools, our communities — they’re atmospheres, magnetic fields, gravitational pulls. They protect, push, pull, shape our paths.”Ryan leaned forward. “So… drama is just natural pl
Chapter 422
Jack leaned closer to the projection, the light of the fire dancing across his face, casting shadows like small, fleeting planets themselves.“Atmospheric escape,” he began, “is how a planet loses some of its air to space. Not always dramatically. Often slowly, silently, like a whispered goodbye. Hydrogen, helium, even oxygen — over millions of years, some just drift away.”Matilda tilted her head. “So… planets sigh?”Jack chuckled softly. “Exactly. They release what they can’t hold, shaping what remains. Earth does it too, though our magnetosphere and gravity protect most of the essentials. Mars? Not so lucky.”The projection shifted — red soil, jagged canyons, rust-colored dust swirling in simulated winds.“Mars had rivers once,” Jack said quietly. “Oceans, a thicker atmosphere, maybe even life ingredients. But its magnetic field weakened. Solar wind stripped away the air. Water vapor escaped. Now it’s thin, cold, almost silent.”Lena’s voice caught. “So… even promising worlds can f

“Every planet carries invisible fields—magnetospheres—that guard them…”Jack’s voice took on a velvet hush, the kind that made everyone sit straighter without realizing. The projection shifted to glowing lines wrapped around Earth, like shimmering auroras.“They deflect solar wind,” Jack continued. “Radiation. Harmful particles. Without a magnetosphere, a planet’s atmosphere can be stripped away over time.”Matilda scrunched her brows. “Like… bullies blowing out your birthday candles?”Jack chuckled softly. “Yes. Exactly. And the magnetosphere pushes back. Quietly. Constantly.”Lena hugged her knees. “So boundaries again.”“Boundaries,” Jack confirmed. “Invisible, but vital.”Ryan raised a hand dramatically. “So basically, vibes are magnetic fields.”Emily groaned, “Please don’t put that on a T-shirt.”Ryan already had his phone half-raised. “Too late, vibe-sphere merch banks itself.”Jackson swatted his hand down. “Focus. Science.”Jack continued, rotating the display to Jupiter’s ma
Chapter 420
For a long moment, nobody moved.The fire crackled softly, shifting from celebration to study hall intimacy.Then Jackson cleared his throat.“So… uh,” he began, pushing his glasses up. “Speaking of growing worlds, I’ve actually been wondering about something completely unrelated but somehow emotionally relevant.”Ryan tensed dramatically. “If you ask how babies are made, I’ll throw myself into the snow.”Jackson glared. “No. Science. Space. The good stuff.”Jack raised a brow. “…Continue.”Jackson swiped his holo-tablet. Stars spun across the air in swirling constellations.“Gaseous planets,” he said, voice reverent. “Like Jupiter. Saturn. How’d they evolve differently? Why do some worlds become solid and earthlike and others… gigantic storms forever?”Lena’s eyes widened, fascinated. Matilda clasped her hands like a kid at storytime. Sarah leaned back comfortably, knowing that when Jack explained science, peace descended like snow.Jack rested his elbows on the table, the firelight

The celebration fire faded to a focused simmer. The cabin’s warmth settled into something almost sacred—a planning war room disguised as cozy wood and soft lamp glow.Sarah stretched her arms above her head. “To build something like this… we should analyze the competition.”Ryan perked. “You mean… the other cartoon networks? Like the Big Ones?” His eyes widened like he was saying the names of rival clans.Emily nodded. “It’s naïve not to benchmark. Their strengths, their flaws.”Jackson pulled the holo-screen closer, fingers dancing. “Competitor analysis mode: on.”He tapped a few icons.Three logos hovered above the table like floating runes—digital ghosts surrounded by decades of nostalgia.Matilda whispered, awestruck, “…The Holy Trinity.”Ryan gasped. “Cartoon Network. Nickelodeon. Disney Channel.”Jack folded his arms. “Let’s break them down.”The AI hummed, eager. “Proceeding with comparative emotional frameworks.”CARTOON NETWORK flashed first.Lena leaned forward, eyes bright.
Chapter 418
The cheering eventually tapered into softer chatter, the kind that hummed through bones instead of eardrums. Everyone slumped into fresher positions, eyes still bright like kids staring at fireworks through sleepy lids.Ryan flopped upside-down across the beanbag, hair dangling. “Okay, honest question—how do we stack up? Like… against other cartoon networks?”Emily lifted a brow. “As in… comparisons?”Ryan pointed wildly. “Benchmarking! Industry evaluation! Creative warfare!”Sarah snorted. “You’re dramatic.”“COMPARATIVE ANALYTICS!” he yelled, then immediately coughed politely. “Please.”Jack sighed, but the corner of his mouth twitched. “…Fine. Benchmarking matters.”Jackson flicked open another holo-window. “Let’s talk competition.”Matilda clasped her hands dramatically. “Disney!”Ryan whispered like a monk before enlightenment. “The Mouse Kingdom.”Emily’s posture sharpened. “They have legacy power. Decades of narrative imprinting. Iconic branding.”Lena nodded. “Kids imprint on
