The typical Vulcan response of passivity but curiosity is going to work perfectly throughout Lower Decks.
It’s just perfect, isn’t it? Hardly a surprise to me given that a huge chunk of the funny parts of “serious” Trek stem from the dry bluntness of characters like Spock, Data, and Odo. Now that T’lyn is here my only question is why it took until the 4th season for someone like her to show up.
Don’t forget Tuvok! He was an amazing straight man to the shenanigans of the Voyager crew. I’ve really been coming to appreciate him more on my current rewatch. I actually get some Tuvok vibes from T’Lyn, just maybe a little lighter and ‘carefree’ in comparison.
It really is surprising that it took 4 seasons. I wonder if their fear just came from worrying that they might come off too much like every other Trek show with having the ‘straight man’ type character so focal.
I think by the time appeared T’Lyn in wej Duj, they had already produced most/all of Season 3, and didn’t realize how much of a hit she would be. And then there wasn’t an opportunity to go back and add her in. I think they had just enough time/room to add her to the end of S3E10
