Punch it!
I would like the ship to go. Now.
LETS BLOW THIS POPSICLE STAND
Found the dad.
alright alright alright.
Either “lets fucking gooooooo” roared at full volume.
Or “do the thing” in a barely audible mumble.
And crew would never know which to expect.
At your pleasure
“Let’s do it.”
I’d start singing 🎶 on the road again
From many hours of playing as captain in PULSAR: The Lost Colony, it’s usually one of: “Whenever you’re ready”, “Can we please just go now”, or “Fine, I’ll do it myself”.
[Specific command containing speed and heading], [helmsman’s name]
This businesss with a catchphrase is too corny and meta. Keep it simple and direct, like Kirk did: “Ahead warp factor 8, Mister Sulu.”
“Let’s go.”
Although I’m also partial to Saru’s “Proceed.” or French-Dub-Picard’s “Energise”.
“Okay, 3, 2, 1, let’s jam” or if we’re in a hurry “SHOWTIME”
Cowboy Bebop and maybe Big O?
Release the Treken!
Seems like Starfleet would have a selection of 5 allowable “Engage” variations lol so that everyone get’s trained on how to know when to go
I’ve decided that to combat people on the Threadiverse just assuming everyone else is from the US, like we had with Reddit, I’ll be talking how I normally talk here.
So my thing would be “howay!” (pronounced like a fast “howie”) or possibly “gan on, then!”
Blast off!
