They could actually make this work.

  • Have a recruitable Volus biotic warrior who you pick up in a nightclub and has romance dialog options.

  • They go hang out in some big room on the ship, like a cargo hold.

  • If you choose the romance options, more Volus just start showing up on your ship with no explanation. Like the next time you go in the cargo hold there's another one, then two more, then you start seeing them in the mess hall, engineering, medbay...

  • There's either dialogue options to ask what's going on (and kick them off the ship) OR there's more romance dialog options, but you can't do both!

  • If you keep choosing romance options, they eventually all show up in your room at the same time. It turns out that when Volus take a new partner, their whole extended polycule is allowed to vote on whether or not they approve of the new person being added to your dynamic. There's a whole scene where you and your new partner have to lobby, bargain and plead for them to include a human. Maybe whether they accept you or not has to do with other choices that you've made.

Aye, ye think yer little wobbly Vulcan coin on a glass is gonna stay calibrated under Warp 3 tactical maneuvers? Hang on. I left a wee role o' duct tape in Jefferies Tube 7.

TST sucks ass though.

It is QUITE A BIT more nuanced than that...

Spend 500 Candies to evolve your Wayoon into a Shran? [yes] [no]

Can you point on this cotton ball to where the Klingon touched you?

No further questions for the witness your honor.

sigh. Take my upvote.

Capitalism is the system wherein the least qualified, most self interested party holds all the decision making power.

Mot puts on a traditional Bolian drag show and gets a standing ovation from the crew is the episode opener I didn't know I desperately needed until right now.

VOICEOVER: Captain's log, star date 571.204. As we are unable to transport through the energy field, Commander Riker, Commander Data and I remain trapped on the strange asteroid, which continues to fall ever faster into the black hole. As we have no way out of our predicament, it seems we have no choice but to attempt to solve the strange murder of the mysterious hotel guest.

PICARD (knocking on hotel manager's door): Hello! Is there anyone in there! We demand to speak with the manager at once!

ANNOYED VOICE: Go away! I'm busy!

PICARD: Your guests are being murdered! If you are the manager of this place, that must matter to you!

ANNOYED VOICE: Oh, very well. Come in, if you must.

PICARD: Q! I should have known you were behind this!

Q: Inspector Jean Luc. How nice of you to drop by. You have a warrant, I assume?

Points for the correct answer. I work on systems for spacecraft and podman is what we use on those for containerization (better option for a couple reasons)... but we literally just SAY docker to the suits, because that's what they've heard of. Which is why I said docker to this guy.
