You’re sat on a plane. Which character would you want to have sat next to you.
Conversely, who would be the worst?
You’re sat on a plane. Which character would you want to have sat next to you.
Conversely, who would be the worst?
I’m not sure who the best candidate is but the worst has got to be Q, right? Powers or no powers, he would be unbearable.
Worst: Neelix. Wouldn’t shut up, and to me has always had that creeper vibe.
Best: Any Vulcan. They won’t bother you, and will begrudgingly get out of the way when you need to get up.
Best Conversations: Any of the main Captains. Would be fun to hear their stories.
Best might be Tendi. She’s fun, and probably has plenty of stories.
Though since I do usually sleep on flights to pass the time, I also kind of have to give credit to Lunya’s suggestion of Vulcans.
Worst? Gorn. They sneeze, and you’re going to have problems.
I’m going to say best is Guinan. Would be so great to chat too, plus I could listen to her vast first hand experiences of history.
Worst has to be Morn though. He wouldn’t shut up. At all.
Best? Jadzia Dax seems like she’d be fun to sit with, no shortage of cool stories to share.
Worst? Riker, I’m not sure I could deal with him doing the Riker Maneuver over my chair all flight.
Best: Data. Polite, clean, friendly as all get out, will talk and have interesting, non-problematic/non-judgemental things to say as long as you do, and won’t talk if you don’t talk. Hell, he would probably literally read you anything you wanted like an audiobook if you asked. Bonus, if literally any problems arise, the dude is a living index of knowledge and an altruistic super android capable of rendering superhuman aid.
Worst: Dianna Troi. I hope you’re ready for drama. She absolutely will read your thoughts and say it was an accident to start a conversation you don’t want to have that will turn into unsolicited psycho-analysis. You WILL be finding out about her family drama and current romantic life in painstaking detail. There will be chocolate everywhere. She’s gonna faint at some point during the flight, and it’s gonna be a whole plane-wide incident and there’s you, trapped in the window seat. You will also be the last one off the plane because she will have brought way too much luggage for carry-on, which the flight attendants will have to help her with for no less than 15 minutes because she’s “still feeling a bit light headed.”
Were you hurt by a betazoid on a plane, as a child?
Worst: James Kermit
Best: Duo
thesearecanonstartrekcharactersandyouwillnottellmeotherwise.
They took over the flight and had an entire psychic Greek wedding in coach. It was deeply traumatic.
Best: Geordi LaForge. I want to talk warp cores, positronic data networks, and Romulan singularity cores for the entire flight, this would be my dream.
Worst: I want to say Tom Paris, but I feel like we could at least bond over bad 50’s sci-fi. Do Obviously Malevolent Villains Of The Week count, because if so I would say Armus. If not, Jellico. I feel like he would offer me black licorice from his pocket and then spend the entire flight explaining why it is a valid snack choice after I politely refuse.
Best: Kirk and T’Pol… we’re watching Jurassic Park
Worst: Neelix, I don’t think he’d be quiet when you want him to.
Best: Data, for reasons already listed above.
Worst: Khan Noonian Singh. Will not stop talking about his superior intellect and grievances. Probably smuggled his pets with him into the cabin as well.
