I would train my staff that unless I say otherwise, when I give you an order I mean get the fuck on with it, not do everything and then sit there waiting for a second order.
Yea seriously. Efficiency, folks!
But… Protocols! 🥺
I think I’d just go with “punch it”.
I always liked this one from Kelvinverse Pike. “Let’s rock and roll” from Cochrane would also be a contender.
I’d like quote one of Morn’s more inspirational sayings, but that might be a bit too longwinded. “Punch it” would do, I suppose.
Do the thing
Will Zhu Li be your pilot?
That series was so good!
“Let’s move.” Simple but effective IMHO.
not sure I could stick to just one thing, I would be the captain that sometimes says something cool and the rest of the time embarrasses/annoys the bridge crew with the worst dad jokes
Maybe “Send it” but I’d probably just say engage.
I already quote Mario’s “Let’s a go!” whenever I’m trying to get my family into the car. It’d be a hoot to break that out each time and watch my bridge crew try to contain the groans and eye rolls.
@acosmichippo LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I’m more just “Let’s go.”
The real question is what do airplane pilots say today when they take off? Do they just sit there and push a lever in silence?
Pretty much silence, yeah lol.
When Adam Savage was doing flight training for the mythbusters U2 episode, the Blue Angels pilot would say, “aaaand HIT IT” when he pulled the high G maneuvers.
They request permission to take off form the tower and then yeah silence.
Maybe in their heads they are like BRRRRR🚀
“bark! bark! bark!”
“Proceed.” is quite good.
We could also take a leaf from the French(?) translation of Captain Picard’s catchphrase and use “energise”. It’s a perfectly fine option.
Meow
oh, now we need a scene with T’Ana forced to captain the Cerritos
Excuse me, are you saying meow?
Hiss <Displays claws>
I know it’s already used in ST: Prodigy, but I like “Go Fast!”
Ensign, warp factor 4 on my mark… Mark.
Not everyone needs to have a “thing”. Though I do like Riker’s “give me warp in the factor of 5,6,7,8 snap”.
“Let’s hit it”
It’s what I say when I leave the house with my kids
