When they were sitting inside the small room together, he was still holding her hand within his own, barely able to contain his own excitement. This was big, for the both of them, and each second that ticked by felt like an eternity. He knew she was feeling just the same way that he was. His boot was tapping the ground lightly as he waited, and when he could hear the woman's approaching footsteps, he gave Navi's hand a small squeeze.
Once the other woman stepped into the room, he immediately looked at what she was holding in her arms, lips splitting into a grin. The ferret was poking his head up and looking at the two of them. It was furry, slinky, had a mask, and grey stripes. It was definitely a curious creature and Alec couldn't believe that they were going to have one.
Once it had been handed to Navi, he stood up beside her, looking down at the ferret, which was busy sniffing her. He raised his hand up very slowly and reached out, making sure to take his time, not wanting to scare the small creature. Once he was sure it was okay with his presence, he slid his fingertips over it's back, grinning like a kid on christmas morning.
