[Tlhingan-hol] nuq bop bom: 'ay' wejmaH vagh

And it continues. I have enough in the buffer that being at work hasn't been a problem yet for sending these. Except that I don't have time to completely proofread this one before sending it this morning.

We left Captain vajar clenching his fists in frustration as his ship systems fail and his crew tries to deal with it.

SKI: Wall o' text explaining the ship's power distribution system, while the bridge crew waits to see if their efforts to stabilize the thruster have succeeded. And then ghutar's life signs move outside the ship.

[13] If you don't care how the power transfer system works on this ship, and will not be concerned later about where vast volumes of coolant appeared from, you can safely skip this paragraph. It happens to be my job to know and care how such things work on my own vessel, so I'm unable to imagine vajar's thoughts without having him think about his ship systems. [14] Yeah, that's a Klingon design decision. Weapons power is so important that potentially pumping volumes of toxic fluid into their living space is okay so long as it allows them to get off a few more shots.
