Oh I beg to differ, I imagine JLP would have a field day with Vash. Yes she was a minor player for a short time, but JLP made the most of it. As a Star Fleet Captain, it is his duty to uphold discipline and who amongst us that has ever wanted to spank a superb bottom like that of Vash could possibly resist, either before, after or even during a trip to the hay loft!!
Well, I'm in agreement that, assuming a spanking-oriented relationship between Captain Picard and Vash, it would be Jean-Luc smacking her bottom, simply because I can't envision him as anything but totally 'toppish.'
However, I would consider Vash to likely be the person doing the spanking in dealing with other "The Next Generation" characters, such as Reginald Barclay, Keiko O'Brien and Wesley Crusher, to name an obvious trio of seemingly 'bottomish' types. Overall, I would classify Vash as a rather 'toppish' switch.
She is an interesting character as both friendly rival and romantic interest to the captain, from my perspective she should have been used more frequently in "TNG" even figuring on no actual bottom-warming activity on her part... --C.K.
