Jadzia, because she's awesome.

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 30 points 8 months ago

Jadzia can save her own self though because she's a badass. Porthos is a helpless lil doggo.

[-] Jaccident@startrek.website 19 points 8 months ago

Porthos made it to the end of his series, meanwhile Jadzia…

someone should have told Worf this

Am I a weirdo for liking Ezri?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

I like both Ezri and Jadzia, but Rick Berman did Terry Ferrell dirty and that's the only reason we had Ezri. So I like Ezri, but there never should have been an Ezri.

No, Ezri is cool too.

[-] cybervseas@lemmy.world 27 points 8 months ago

One of them should have been Wesley.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 35 points 8 months ago

Wesley is like half a Q. He can save himself.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 17 points 8 months ago

Shut up, Wesley.

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

I’d feel bad about choosing between any of who’s up there, but I don’t think anyone would miss Wesley

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 13 points 8 months ago

I liked him. They could've made the "boy genius" storyline a bit better, but then the "genius" part overlaps with Data too much I guess. Also, he shouldn't have had issues getting into the academy at all

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

He’d have been so cool as like a prodigy type, that’s where I thought they were going with him making cool gadgets and understanding traveller. I really wish they’d just gone through with it, since the best and brightest are supposed to be the very fabric of starfleet no overlap should be a problem.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Well, you generally don't want your characters to be redundant though. A boy genius finding it hard to integrate with the crew (which was where it was heading, with the famous "shut up Wesley" being an example, or that Picard didn't want children on the bridge) is quite close to wondorous machine that doesn't fully understand what it means to be human finds it hard to integrate with the crew etc

I was 10 years old when TNG started, so Wesley was perfect for me. "A kid can be on the bridge of the Enterprise? A kid like me?"

Also, Wil Wheaton is awesome. And a good actor.

I would execute Wesley myself to save Porthos.

All other 5 of them can save themselves just fine.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago

Uhura can save herself with a sexy fan dance!

[-] Shawdow194@kbin.social 17 points 8 months ago

"The dog"...

You mean PORTHOS! Give them some respect!

[-] madelena@lemmy.ml 8 points 8 months ago

Exactly! The Dog is Tendi's dog, not Archer's dog.

[-] milkisklim@lemm.ee 4 points 8 months ago

Aka the Destroyer of Trees, the Consumer of Cheese!

[-] dejected_warp_core@startrek.website 17 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

The dog is the only one that can't actually consent to space travel, and regardless, couldn't possibly know the risks. It is innocent, and doesn't deserve a violent fate.

Everyone else knows that they signed up to live in a metal box, with an artificial biosphere, which is all that separates them from the cold void of deep space. Also, said deep space is jam-packed full of things trying to actively break that metal box, if the crew doesn't beat them to it first. And nobody knows that better than Seven.

[-] vithigar@lemmy.ca 25 points 8 months ago

Seven didn't. At least not originally. Annika was dragged along by her parents out into the middle of nowhere to get assimilated.

Yes, she decided as an adult to continue her career in space, but she definitely didn't make that original choice.

Can I save two if I kill Burnham twice?

I’d save seven and together would would figure out a way of using time travel to save the other 4

Save the dog by merging it's mind with Seven of Nine's body. Not because it's a sexy body, but because it has the nanoprobes.

[-] Kovukono@pawb.social 20 points 8 months ago

We are the Dorg. You will become a good boy. Resistance is futile.

They should put Tuvix as choice as well .but porthos wins.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

You can't save Tuvix. No one can save Tuvix.

[-] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 8 points 8 months ago

The logical choice is Jadzia, because if you save her you also save Dax.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

No one said Dax wouldn't survive. It only shows Jadzia. So still Porthos.

[-] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago

Just remember that you can't save Porthos and the cheese.

Why is it only women in the comparison with a dog?

[-] nzeayn@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

Because this community is filled with dissapointments. Who think it's funny to equate women and dogs. Then brush off complaints with shit like "but the girls can save themselves! god why is comedy illegal now!?"

Don't worry about calling me out for being insulting by calling people dissapointments folks. I'm unsubbing. I cant with this place anymore.

Seven or jadzia is an impossible choice for me

[-] thorbot@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

My hormones would choose Seven. God damn that thing she wears always drove me crazy
