It’s been fun seeing so much of Kirk this season, but does that mean he’s now a regular? I don’t see how he could take a position on the Enterprise for years yet, so would that imply he just keeps coincidentally visiting all the time? Starts to strain plausibility after a while.
I can’t remember when but I’m pretty sure we’ve seen officers shadow others before
does lower decks count? that’s the one that’s immediately coming to mind
