Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We'll be back in January. (Should be regular time, night of the 8th)

In the meantime, we will enjoy the holidays and I will attempt to finish a Planescape comic! Wish me luck. And good tidings to all of you.

BrickVoid: Looks like that 30 minute downtime record is going to be put to the test in the second week of January! :D

Transcript
Panel 1:
Director J'enn: Welcome, your majesties, to Particle Defense Control! I'm J'enn, your tour guide!
    From here we direct the defense systems of Sping-Spang-Spoogie! From natural threats to alien ones!

Panel 2:
J'enn: Now, if you'll follow me this way, we can begin our tour!

Panel 3:
J'enn: Here we have our first station! Primary Systems Monitor!
    He ensures that all internal components of the particle defense system remain at full function.
Natashia Starrat: So he would direct repairs? How long, say, would the downtime be if you had a system failure?
Systems Monitor Guy: Well... that all would depend on what's broken, ma'am. But I'm proud to say that our worst downtime was less than 30 minutes.
J'enn: And certainly not something we need to worry ourselves about today!

Panel 4:
J'enn: And we're walking! Over this way we have our systems that monitor the space weather for incoming threats!
Prince: Ooh, neat!
Natashia: Oh, Pavembril... weould you run back to the carriage? I suspect the Prince and I will be... thirsty very soon.
Pavembril: Of course, your majesty!

Panel 5:
Natashia: Have you found any difficulty adapting these systems to Romulan use after the Spoogians ran them for so long?
J'enn: I'm sure that question can be better answered by our pamphlets. And now... we have one more stop before deciding the best place for your photo op!

Panel 6:
Romulan Guard (aside): Hey... what do you think you're doing? You can't just waltz in here with that.
Pavembril (aside): Oh, yes I can! The Prince requires his refreshments!
Guard (aside): You're not getting past me!
J'enn: The is our primary control station! Many of our defense systems are automated, but this station is the nerve center of it all.
Natashia: And there's no storms approaching at hte moment?
J'enn: No, we're not expecting another storm for several hours.

Panel 7:
Prince: Hey, what's going on here?
Guard: Majesty, with respect... this Spoogian is acting out of order. I'm handling it.
Prince: Well, from what I see... you're blocking my servant from bringing me my ale!
    I'll take that. Thank you... what was it? Pavembril? I think that's what Natashia said.
Pavembril: Um... yes! It is! Thank you... your majesty.

Panel 8:
J'enn: I think this spot is ideal. We can frame the both of you operating the controls for the shot.
    It'll look just you're fighting off a particle shower!
Natashia: Yes, I think that makes sense.
Romulan Operator (aside): Yes, great... show them. It's not like us actual techs do anything...
J'enn: Now where has the Prince got to?

Panel 9:
Prince: Hold! Sorry! I'm over here!
    Coming!
J'enn: Wait, no! Don't run with an open bottle of--!

Panel 10:
SFX: *Trip!*
Prince: Whoops!
J'enn: Gah!
SFX: Ka-Splash!
