Any idea if Giorgia Wigham / Lysella will return? (lemmy.world)

She’s already wrapped S2 of Ted, and clearly she likes working with Seth, so since Lysella stayed on board in the end, wouldn’t it be awesome if she became a recurring character or even a cast member?

Unless she's working to onboard new species that have just reached the point where they can join the Planetary Union, I'm done with that character. One too many back and forth subplots. She never seemed to learn her lesson (as understandable as that was for someone in her position).

If she does return, it would be good to see her be like a Dr. Taylor from The Voyage Home, someone out of place in time (as it were) but putting her skills to use in the Union none-the-less.

Well, except Dr. Taylor was a marine biologist with a PhD, whereas Lysella was a barista/cashier. But my thoughts were that since we're already inevitably dealing with a bit of time lapse which it is likely they will integrate in the story where they pickup, it could be presented that she's been through the academy and is now a junior officer. She would integrate right into the setting in a perfectly plausible way.
