not going to lie as soon as Michael started talking about a first officer my mind jumped to Owosekun and Rhys and when Saru said Booker would make a good XO I was offended on their behalf because the man’s not even technically in starfleet

#star trek discovery #also I firmly believe they’re in love with #each other still just working through things which makes it a massive conflict of interest #and I loved loved loved Michael having someone outside of Starfleet she could lean on #because I was tired of her feeling indebted and obligated to the point of constantly risking her life for an institution #that failed her in childhood and then later used her as a scapegoat for an entire war #cleveland booker #michael burnham #Booker deserves to find his next path #and he and Michael can be a team romantically #also disclaimer I know Saru was talking about the *type* of person but there are like 80-some-odd people who have been on #Discovery for a minute like Culber? Pollard?#Tilly would make as bad of an XO to Michael as she did to Saru anyway #in a good way she’s too loyal to her friends
