"Do you need another pair of hands?" Julian asks.
Kelas has juice on his chin, which he dabs with the heel of his palm. "Hands? No." He beckons with sticky fingers, says, "Come here, karyut."
The translator never figured out what to do with karyut. Standard doesn't have an endearment for husband-of-my-husband - support, perhaps, for Garak's opinion that the Federation's language does its citizens a romantic disservice. Julian's been relying less on translations, anyway.
