About Trent Senior
Trent Senior owns Trent Motors, a Twin Prairies staple in the same way certain buildings become staples: by being there long enough that people stop asking who really benefits. Eventually the business goes to his oldest son, Trent Jr., which feels less like succession and more like a handoff everyone was trained to expect.
He does not really think about cameras. He barely thinks about cars unless they are useful containers for status, leverage, or access. What occupies his mind is power: who has it, who wants it, and who can be persuaded they never had any in the first place.
Trent is calm, articulate, and professionally interested in other people's certainty right up until it becomes inconvenient for him. He does not need volume. He prefers the cleaner method of making a room adjust itself.
Around Flying Eagle, he functions like local infrastructure with tailored posture. Around his sons, he behaves like legacy is a management style. Around everyone else, he is what happens when ambition learns table manners.
Favorite camera: Not his department
Favorite effect: A conversation ending where he planned it
Fun fact: Can make a favor feel overdue before he has technically asked for it.
