Fanon
Chortegas is a fairly popular ship in the Strange New Worlds fandom. The ship initially got some fans after episode two showed the two close together during the dinner in episode two. It gained some more fans after episode five showed that they were friends, and apparently known each other a while. This was also the same episode that revealed that Christine was bi, so it caused many to become interested in a potential relationship between her and one of the female members of the crew. The ending also seemed to indicate to some the Christine might fall for Erica or that they writers were setting up a romance of the two. Their mutual snark and chemistry also led to many seeing the potential of the ship.

On AO3, Chortegas is the most written ship for Erica. It is also the fourth most written ship in the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds tag.

Hemmer says a human who is blind may consider themselves impaired, with Spock interjecting that Hemmer's other senses compensate. Uhura brings up pre-cognative ability's of Aenar, and Hemmer knew she was going to ask since someone always does. Spock throws a carrot from behind Hemmer, who catches it easily. Hemmer says that Spock communicated this telepathically and Spock says that he did so to illustrate. Hemmer gives a small chuckle, as Uhura realizes that they're hazing her.
