[Tlhingan-hol] nuq bop bom: 'ay' cha'maH Soch
Yesterday's installment concluded with the helmsman and the FO
rabbitting on about the difficulty of accessing the physical
adjustment panel on standard thrusters, after a rare thruster malfunction.

SKI: The captain recalls an attempt to instruct his helmsman in
self-defence, when she first joined the crew.
[1] I adore having vajar do this in all innocence, because of how
completely idiotic it would be from a tera'ngan manager. He thinks
alcohol policies are strange in the Federation. He will NEVER
understand the sexual harassment policies.
[2] Yeah, yor is the wrong word. Better descriptive suggestions welcome.
Is it clear that the tonSaw' lesson is in a flashback, remembered by
the captain as he considers the DeghwI'?
If you've missed any episodes, the full story to date is at
http://nuqbopbom.blogspot.com , but I haven't been posting my
self-indulgent commentary and footnotes there.
