Big round Slipspace portal/iris open at one end - arrowed triangle shown pushing forward through self-made slipspace tunnel creating a roundish bow-wake -slipsace tunnel trailing behind nose of "ship" all the way back to portal. Radiation streaming out of ship through tunnel into euclidean space. It felt like one of those Wheel of Fortune swear creations happening live. Ironically we had borrowed the HR kiss and cry room to do the proposal so I suggested that I just stay in here after the meeting and wait for my punishment to show up.
Changing the tunnel to a twisting spiraling thing helped a lot but it was already too late. Patrick Stewart had already seen everything. He'd seen all of it.
