[Tlhingan-hol] nuq bop bom: 'ay' wa'vatlh cha'maH wej: <QaynIS>

[Robyn Stewart]

Welcome to the 125th installment in what will probably be the first 
full-length Klingon novel.

Captain vajar told ghutar that his enemy was regulations, and not 
someone he could fight or persuade.

SKI: ghutar and Hota'ro' try to find a loophole in Imperial Fleet Regulations.

[71] Yeah, I've definitely gotten to an exciting part of the story. 
Three Klingons are in a computer room looking up Imperial Fleet 
Regulations. The reason they say "write what you know" must be that 
no matter what you try to write, you'll end up with what you know, so 
you might as well aim there.
[77] At this point I had the kids looking up the regs and was asking 
myself, "What is vajar doing?" I couldn't shake the idea that he was 
updating his Facebook status: Captain vajar just checked in on the 
Battleship *veS*. "Kradge tail with a side of fresh gakh for dinner. 
Chillin' on the big ship while I get some repairs. Maybe I'll get the 
disruptor canons upgraded while I'm here." And then he kills twenty 
minutes playing Farmville. Hmm. No? Better rethink that one.
