Also? It’s hilarious that you can’t sit next to Burnham. 😅 🖖

The more I think about it 7 has to be the worst seat in the plane. I would NOT want to listen to the Borg Queen and Janeway lecture each other for 15 hours straight. Also, god help us all if the flight runs out of coffee.

@matt_garber Indeed. Wherever he’s sitting, that’s where I’d be.

@gedeonm @matt_garber, wouldn't you rather have one of the unoccupied seats? I know that I would…

@octothorpe @gedeonm I agree. While I'd prefer to sit in Seat 1, I'd hate to be stuck in a window seat. Aisle first, which leaves two choices. I'd still be unhappy to not sit next to Quark. Armin Shimmerman is a delight.

@octothorpe @gedeonm Oh, yes. Very much that! And the I-can-turn-around-in-my-seat-and-talk-to-Picard Maneuver! SWIDT 🤣

@octothorpe @gedeonm I'm with you there. For reasons, I'd also like to add Insiign Kim and Nog. Kim was shorted and we lost Aron Eisenberg far too soon.

@tylerknowsnothing @gedeonm indeed. RIP Nog. I’m sure you’ve seen it already, but do check out the DS9 doco. It’s great. I saw it in the cinema.

@octothorpe @gedeonm We have it on Blu-Ray. I adored the hypothetical 8th season.

@gedeonm yes! 10 is awesome, but 6 is good and 9 would have extra legroom, because, hologram!

@tjane00artist @gedeonm You know if you ask the doctor to turn off being solid you're going to get quite an earful...

@superflippy @gedeonm Or the sexual rituals of every species in the galaxy, which ones will kill humans, and how. Perhaps an account of the various pleasures your nervous system would go through as your body is dissolved for its DNA contribution.

Or maybe the most vicious virus and the horrible ways it kills same variety of creature. Or the strangest ways sentient species ingest food.

By far the most interesting single-serving friend you could have. Might even get invited to an orgy.

@superflippy @gedeonm Guy behind looks like a seat kicker though.

@gedeonm
That was weird. Michael Burnham is my next favorite Captain after Benjamin Sisko.

@gedeonm I'm back in economy, wedged between Harry Mudd and Scotty.

@gedeonm Personally, I would love to sit in 5, 6, or 8, though I’d be gunning hard for 5 or 6. I mean, Captain Pike! 🥰

@digichelle @gedeonm 6 because that doctor is just a chatterbox of way interesting shit. Sitting by Pike would be an honor, but what would we really talk about? I guess the most pressing moral question of my life, but that would be a bit presumptuous and the doc's no slouch there either and would probably find it interesting.

@gedeonm Im gonna live dangerously, #1 LOL

@gedeonm @nullagent I'd be willing to endure a lot of things for a chance to chat with Michael Burnham, so 8! 🖖

@gedeonm @nullagent Captain Burnham and I would spend the first 10 minutes convincing Captain Archer that it's totally logical that he swap seat with me.

@gedeonm I want to sit as far away from Kirk as possible. 3 looks like a really really good spot except... Quark is right there and you know he's going to turn around and pester you the whole trip trying to sell you something. Still, it might be worth it.

EDIT: BTW I think the alt-text is wrong. I get the impression those are rows, so if you sit at 1 it's not Sisko and Quark. You can't talk to Sisko without turning around and leaning over the back of the seat. But Quark is right there next to you definitely not picking your pockets.

I guess at least you get a window seat though.

@nazokiyoubinbou, but that's quite close to Kirk!

Oh, wait, you meant the other Kirk…

@gedeonm Well 6 because hair but I want 1 because no one is more interesting than Quark but honestly give me Morn and let me listen to podcasts. 😂

@Ronnie, but this is off-camera, and – well, if you don't know how talkative Lurians can be…

@gedeonm I would normally think 3, but they’re both too polite to chat for the entire flight, so 6 it is. I think learning exobiology w/Dr. Phlox for 15 hours would be interesting & sustainable even after Pike fell asleep after 4 hours. #startrek

@gedeonm Swap the Cardassian with Garak and put me in #6.

@gedeonm 10 is tempting but I’d have to choose 7

@gedeonm Alright, who's hamming it up back in the back of the plane? Geez, will someone shut that man up? Is he hitting on a stewardess? What the heck dude.

@gedeonm 9 for sure! The Dr can knock me out for the 15 hour flight. Plus while I’m knocked out he can fix any health problems I may have & maybe touch up some wrinkles. 👍 OR… I’d be down in the cargo hold with Spot, Porthos & a tribble. Once the tribble multiplies it will be super soft & cozy. 😊

@gedeonm

The stories and bitchiness would be off the charts entertaining.

@gedeonm 5. Aisle seat, and I love LD and SNW. 3 is tempting, but it’s a middle seat.

@gedeonm it’s really too bad Mariner isn’t on the plane.

@Ronnie Yes, also Spock or Data or Dax or Morn or Kira or Seven or Q or…

@gedeonm honestly at this point though, I don’t want to be on a plane with anyone.

@gedeonm

I am so sitting in 7... I love strong, smart women!

@philsplace @gedeonm
7 isn't the worst seat. It's the spiciest seat. So that's where I'm at … besides, Borg Queen was probably done wrong by Federation historians and I want to listen to her dish 🌶️🌶️🌶️

@gedeonm I was kinda thinking 7 would be my favourite. 😂 Now that would be a memorable flight!

@gedeonm I'd do 7...ASSUMING the Borg Queen is not hooked into the in-seat entertainment system... 😂 @genecowan
