Alec grinned and headed towards a ship that seemed slightly less shiny and new, but not at all badly cared for. He was really looking forward to this, after having figured out where he'd been messing up in the sim runs; in outer space, lacking gravity, use the planet as a guide, and don't freak out.

He patted the ship as he approached, bouncing a little himself as his grin threatened to grow wider still.
