The Practical Free Spirit 
My first thought was Trinity, because she’s so bad ass. But she’s always so serious. Therefore, I chose Rose Tyler. She’s fun and can be bad ass when necessary.
Fun poll!
Love Zoe to death, but I think Gwen would be a hoot to have around.
(And possibly a holler…)
Spock, of course. He’s the ultimate wingman in all situations.
That’s a hard choice. I ended up going with Zoe on the theory that she can handle herself in pretty much whatever really dangerous situation presents itself; she’s not especially likely to need rescuing. I suppose that’s true for Chewbacca as well, but the cost in shampoo alone would be horrifying.
R2D2. He’s quiet most of the time, so he wouldn’t annoy me. And he always seems to be a deux-ex-machina in a . . . machine . . . so when I feel like being a lazy hero I’ll always have an out.
I’m really torn between Spock and Zoe, because I think they are the two sidekicks most likely to keep me from dying. It depends on whether I need brains or brawn!
I guess I have more brains than brawn myself though, so I’m going to have to go with Zoe.
Hah! And Zoe pulls ahead!
Trinity, without doubt. I mean…duh…

I have such a crush on Spock.
