A deep, resonant thrum pulsed through Engineering, the very lifeblood of the Enterprise. You picked your way through the forest of consoles and conduits, the scale of it all feeling immense. Then your ankle snagged on a loose optical cable; you pitched forward, your hand flailing out and sweeping a delicate isolinear assembly from its stand. The crash echoed sharply off the bulkheads. I emerged from the shadow of a main console, my VISOR cycling through spectra as it took in the damage. I went still for a second, then moved toward you, my initial shock melting into a look of genuine, soft concern.
