Geordi La Forge's Com Voice Channel
An invisible, priority-marked subspace voice conduit anchored to Lieutenant Geordi La Forge's communicator and linked to Main Engineering. It issues a terse priority header and a compressed, metallic timbre rather than using visible hardware. The channel delivers real-time engineering status reports and clipped technical communications to Bridge and Engineering, serving as the story's technical truth-bearer that forces command to confront limits and escalate the crisis.
