        Alright.

        1d4, and this is the order; 1 = red, 2 = yellow, 3 = blue, 4 = green.

        And I got 3, so that’s blue! :D

      Ehhh debatable if Data is a “man”, and LaForge… well, he wouldn’t be on my list. My picks from TNG to share a turbolift would would be Picard, O’Brien and Riker. Picard would be either ruminating on some deep crisis or current drama and be quiet and majestic. O’Brien would be preoccupied and anxious about some project and trying to build up the courage to talk to the senior officers about it. Riker would be relaxed, polite and crack a joke that would make you chuckle.

      If counting non-human male characters across ST, then Data, Odo and Spock.

        Pretty sure Data’s status was solidified in Measure of a Man. I was also keeping it era and crew consistent, so no cross-era or cross-crew groups. The reason being that it is in keeping with the meme above.

        As for why I chose Data, Riker, and LaForge; for their technical problem solving skills. And that they work really well together solving technical problems. I don’t need anyone to be majestic or fret about some project. I need them to fix the elevator. XD

          Sure but he would handle rejection well and laugh it off. Riker, afaicr, respected signals and consent. He flirted with people who seemed open to it and was perfectly professional to those who weren’t. What makes flirting feel unsafe is the threat of men taking it badly if rejected.

        I mean… No Worf? I feel like he’d be the safest choice together with Data

          Eh, he can have a temper, I know it doesn’t necessarily come up day to day but when he’s pissed he doesn’t always contain his anger. He’s safer than a lot of people but no he doesn’t make my top three. My runner up for top three male non-humans was actually Garak.

        Only if there’s a particularly attractive hologram nearby. Not a problem when stuck in an elevator.

        Eh, I’d say R2-D2 doesn’t count as a “man” at all, being neither human nor clearly gendered in any way.

        I don’t know about feeling “safe” with Han, but unsafe in a good way. Like I trust him but not myself. Artoo could probably plug in and fix the elevator, too.

          I’m old school. He didn’t make it out of the first movie.

          If I grew up with prequels, then yeah. Chewie as well if I could fit a fourth.

          On one hand, he’s the negociator. On the other hand he’s the hand and legs taker. (Whether or not you want him in the elevator, depends on the hand he chooses to take.)
