Connie is drumming her fingers on her lap, although she, likewise, is smiling widely. "I mean, I have so many questions on how all this works. Like, how exactly is this... thing aerodynamic enough to achieve flight at these speeds? What kind of magic did they use to construct engines that are on par with jets? If there are sky pirates, what kind of devices do they use to interdict flight when everything's going so quickly?"

Her face falls slightly. "...although I really hope we don't encounter any, um, sky buccaneers or whatever on this flight. I don't have any asterisks yet. What about you guys?"
