He sits on my bridge in his underwear. That's where he stays and belongs. We refer to him on my ship as Captain Underpants. I was appalled that I could not choke the life from him. Make him a trusted member of my crew again? Never.

Thank you for this post. Most helpful

I was outraged at the betrayal but thought "Ok, maybe I get to kill one of my companions, interesting" but then, when he begged forgiveness and I was forced to keep him, I was outraged even more. He stands on my bridge now stripped down to his shorts. I refer to him as Captain Underpants.

Kinda feel creepy pursuing the romance angle with companions. Almost all the story lines are either extremely misogynistic or squarely sexual harassment. I have to wonder about the younglings playing this game and seeing this. I hope they don't emulate. Acting out even the most benign romance in this game would get you arrested or at the least fired/expelled in real life.
