Spaceships 101- 1st period- Week #12

It was back in the Danger Shop today, where the students would find themselves on the bridge of a certain ship instead of looking at a sim. Jaina just hoped she could hold their attention before they started looking around. "So I went home last week, which got me a chance to pick up some new stuff, which is why you're here. This is a ship near and dear to me, called Trickster. Not its original name, but it's the name I gave it and it suits it much better. It's a frigate, a long-range reconnaissance ship, 150 meters long, so it's smaller than most ships of its kind. It's made of yorik coral and is a living ship, meaning if you don't take care of it, it will die and then where will you be?" she said. If she was being careful not to use the name of the species they'd stolen this from, well. "The version you're seeing of it is also post-modifications because of that. When I first got it, you had to fly with a cognition hood, for instance, which isn't very handy for most pilots. It's been refitted with more typical controls and a communications system, and so it's slightly more user friendly now.

"So today for class, you get to play on the ship. It's Thanksgiving week, I know most of you probably don't care, so you can take turns trying to pilot her, or you can go digging around and explore some," she told them. "Just, be careful if you're looking too closely into what might pass as controls. I take no responsibility for anything you might end up covered in." Said she who'd been covered in more ship bodily fluids than she ever cared to discuss.
