I find the lack of Elim Garak disturbing.

Also 12 and 3 have the same person on different timelines.

Normally this meme format is difficult because there are no good choices. But this time there are no bad ones!

Still, I think I’d have to go with 3.

9. I’d ask Picard about archaeology. Chakotay and I would be fascinated by his lectures for a few hours then we’d all quietly read and probably nap.

Saru and Kelvin Spock would probably get along really well. Everyone else would be having heated arguments that I think would be amazing to witness, if not take part in.

I think I’d most like to sit between Mariner and Pike, though.

2, because then I get to sit between the two most attractive people in the galaxy.

Mother of God, anywhere but 6

My first thought was Picard because we’d both quietly read books we brought along, but then again I wouldn’t want to miss out on all the crazy space cowboy tales Kirk would share with me. So, in conclusion, Kirk it is.

For me it’s gotta be 5 or 7.

Those seem like the best pairings where both would make you feel comfortable and accepted no matter how outta your depth you are.

All the other pairings have at least one person who would put me on edge for one reason or another no matter how much I like/repect the character.

12 would probably be fun, I feel like it would become a friendly competition of story one upmanship.

If Spock takes the bait then 10. I feel like I’d learn a lot.

1 if that is Emperor Georgiou. The shit talking would be nonstop entertainment and I’m all in for that. Well, she might kill me, but that’s not a bad way to get out of a 12 hour shuttle trip.

Edit. Fuck, she might put me in an agonizer when we arrive. Maybe this isn’t the right path. But she is super hot and interesting so maybe still worth.

4. I think both Kira and Gwyn seem pretty down to earth and would have interesting stories and opinions on various topics. Not overly dramatic nor boring. Would know when to shut up. I would enjoy hearing advice Kira would give to Gwyndala as a young woman growing into her own. Neither companion would be overly boastful, maybe a tad critical, but their struggles bring an interesting angle on how they view life.

12 hours?

8 or 10. Put in my head phones, put on my audiobook, no one’s bothering me.

2, T’Pol and O’Brien would have no difficulty keeping to themselves so it would be a quiet journey, at least if you were in a soundproof cabin with the two.

If this is open area seating you would be able to hear many of the other characters from anywhere you sit, even if you were depressurizing outside the ship, so there’s simply no hope until you finish depressurizing at least.

Seat 9. I’d say Picard and Chakotay would be pretty mellow and level-headed unless Chakotay’s feeling extra resentful about Picard’s handling of Marquis/Cardassian Neutral Zone stuff. It’s then insulated from some of the crazier pairs with level-headed duos, or at least balanced duos (e.g Raffi and Spock or Kira and Progeny). The exception might be Sisko and Kirk, who would either get along quite well or drive each other to the brink of insanity. Either way, (1 assassinated Romulan senator later) I can live with it. Though maybe after the first hour, I’ll have seat 12 to myself after Riker and Kelvin Kirk go to sick bay for competitive chair-sitting-related injuries…😏
