NARRATIVE The cleaning process was relatively routine. However, during the process, unexpected auditory anomalies were detected. These were traced to a Ferengi capsule lodged among stored crates, which upon inspection contained a malfunctioning Klingon toy emitting noise and light. The item was cleared from the work area.
Shortly thereafter, unusual airflow disturbances produced shifting dust patterns resembling the outline of a figure. Talak’fives attempted to expose its presence using reverse air pressure from the cleaning unit. No contact was confirmed; the disturbance dissipated without further incident. A minor accident occurred during this attempt when I was struck and briefly incapacitated by the device, but I recovered without medical complications.
With the anomaly unresolved and equipment safety questioned, we suspended the operation, having cleared enough of the residue to render the ventilation system safe for normal use. Full clearance of the vents remains incomplete.
RECOMMENDATION Engineering should be tasked to finish the vent clearance and perform a full systems diagnostic, including tricorder scans, to rule out security or environmental irregularities. Continued monitoring is prudent, though no immediate hazard remains.
RECOGNITION Talak’fives was a very good cleaning companion.
OOC This is the AAR for the event Drawing the Short(er) Stembolt.
