26.) Hot
Escaping from Bones, Jim ignored his body's protests and made his way back to the bridge. Snagging the most current status reports, he found an empty meeting room where he was unlikely to be disturbed and started to read. He really should sleep, but as a stowaway he had no rooms, and any free rooms were needed for the Vulcan refugees.
Checking the rooms that they were assigned, Kirk frowned when he noticed the temperatures of each room. It was far too cool, not nearly hot enough for it to be comfortable for the Vulcans. His frown deepened when he realized that the rooms had limited climate control, the system being one of many that could wait to be repaired.
A quick stop to return the reports to the bridge and he was on his way down to engineering. The repairs wouldn't take long, and once he was sure that the rooms were hot enough for the Vulcan refugees, he could move onto repairing what he could. It was still a long way back to Earth, the least he could do was make the trip as comfortable as possible for everyone.
