It’s funny to me people were arguing a little about whether Billups is actually confirmed asexual or not, when I mean… like, he explicitly stated his intentions on staying a virgin forever? Like… if a character said “I exclusively wish to have sexual relations with only my own sex”, you wouldn’t debate if he was actually gay or not, right? Because even if he didn’t say the word homosexual, he said what the word homosexual means.

Reminder that Chief Engineer Andy Billups' first name is Andarithio.

He is the coolest virgin.

Regarding Lower Decks. How many headcanons do you have about Billups? I’d love to hear them. I have tons about Tendi and Rutherford myself (yes they’re my favourite characters, I see a lot of myself in them). I’m just curious.

Alright, buckle up, because I have a lot.

One time, a federation starship had to rescue the Monaveen. Andy became fascinated by the engineers working to repair the ship. The chief engineer, a Denobulan, saw how fascinated he was and offered to give Andy a tour of her starship. He was hooked on Starfleet ever since.

He would commonly sneak away from his mother and climb over the castle walls to see the engineers (blacksmiths) work on the Royal starships.

He was assigned to the USS Enterprise D when he was either an ensign or a cadet. He actually stayed on board for quite a while. (I came up with this from his lines "Mark Twain's got a gun!" and "Tasha no! The garbage bags behind you! l)

It was Wesley Crusher that gave him the nickname Andy, because nobody could pronounce Andarithio correctly (even in the episode it's pronounced several different ways).

Billups freaks out over blood, burns, bugs, very strong smelling food, high pitched noises, any kind of random surprises, and people randomly touching him.

Despite him normally freaking out over blood and burns, he is able to go into autopilot in engineering, especially if the ship is in battle. He also has a very high pain tolerance. There's been several times after something happened in engineering where he walks out unaware of how injured he is.

Immediately after the events of No Small Parts, he raced into engineering and evacuated all the other engineers that way he could try and stabilize the warp core. He was successful, but he got severe radiation sickness and had to take it easy for a while. (That's also my explanation for why he's not really in season 2 until the end)

Andy presses his uniform and polishes his pips and combadge every night.

His main source of stress relief, besides engineering a solution to a problem, is working out. That is why he is so ripped.

And that's it, I'm sure I will come up with more later, that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Exact quotes and references:

Data: "With regard to romantic relationships, there is no real me." (and "In Theory" in general); "I have no sexual desire."

Q: "There’s no question in my mind that when I play [Q], I love Picard." - John de Lancie

Beverly Crusher: "Bev would have slept with male or female" - Gates McFadden

Julian Bashir: "I don't think Bashir had a very overt sexuality…he certainly had a stunted sense of sexuality…I don't think that he put the…platonic side [and] the physical side together. So he could fall in love across…the board...because he's falling in love with both sexes." - Alexander Siddig (edited for brevity and clarity)

Jadzia Dax: The entire episode of "Rejoined"; "Terry Farrell says Jadzia Dax was pansexual." (Article)

Elim Garak: "It’s about being omnisexual. That basically his sexuality is something that can happen with anyone." - Andrew Robinson

Mirror Kira Nerys: Shows interest in men and women

Mirror Ezri Dax: Kisses/in relationship with Mirror Kira

Seven of Nine: Hand holding with Raffi, their relationship throughout second season; "Oh, Seven is canonically bi, don't you worry." - Jeri Ryan (Twitter)

Phlox: "I was trying very hard to suggest he had a polyamorous relationship with the boys as well as the girls. I do tell people I was the first gay character on Star Trek, whether you were aware of it or not." - John Billingsley

Hikaru Sulu: Shown with husband

Michael Burnham: "You've never been in love." (This is probably the vaguest one, but the discussion is about romantic love, and if a fully grown adult like Burnham has explicitly never experienced romantic love before, I think it's safe to say they're somewhere on the aro/ace-spectrum)

Keyla Detmer: "[S]he maybe is starting to accept herself in her own queerness, whatever that means." - Emily Coutts

Paul Stamets: "[I]n my universe, and pretty much any universe I can possibly imagine, I'm gay."

Hugh Culber: "I'm gay, and so is [Culber]."

Mirror Philippa Georgiou: Shown with male and female sexual partners

Jett Reno: "My wife is Soyousian."

Raffaela "Raffi" Musiker: Hand holding with Seven, their relationship throughout second season

Beckett Mariner: "Oh, I'm always dating bad boys. Bad girls, bad gender-nonbinary babes, ruthless alien masterminds, bad Bynars..."

Andarithio "Andy" Billups: "[I]f you're planning on tricking me into intercourse, think again. The only lady I love is two decks tall, and pumped full of dilithium;" "You need to accept the fact that I'll be a virgin for the rest of my life."

Adira Tal: "Um, 'they,' not–not 'she.' I've never felt like a 'she' or–or a 'her,' so I would prefer 'they' or 'them' from now on."

Gray Tal: "Transitioning, it's like, I had bigger things to think about. But, if I get another chance to remake my body, then why not get rid of all the things that aren't totally me."

Zero: "Not a robot, nor a he, or she."

Christine Chapel: "He and I are on the same page. Casual, no attachments, this is just for fun, zero commitments." "[Y]ou said the same thing about that gal on Argelius II."

Once again Billups is an ace icon. Everyone else is getting down and dirty in every conceivable way, and he’s just scrolling through his PADD.
