Well, I can't think of any way that two third-person nouns could be linked to
a first- or second-person pronoun. It's not a question of being forced to use
a third-person pronoun when topicalizing the subject. It's simply that that's
the only way you're going to need to.
(Actually, I've got a few weird ideas, but I think I'll keep them out of KLBC
for now. In any case, they wouldn't have been at all useful for actually
speaking Klingon.)
