#janeway x t'pel

[bumblingbabooshka]

and then he quit Starfleet for over 50 years

#Tuvok #st voyager #something funny about the previous scene is that Janeway smirks at Janice teasing Tuvok about trying to schmooze the captain #and when Tuvok is like 'I'm not!!' Janeway makes an exaggerated somber face and nods like 'that's right - you tell em~' making fun of him!! #Also Tuvok going 'As you can see - everyone else seemed perfectly happy to DISOBEY ORDERS!!!! But not me.' #and her earnestly this time going 'And you're so brave for that. <3' #Tuvok & Janeway love Starfleet code so much they should marry IT instead of Mark & T'Pel #their true love is following codes and having absolute moral clarity #Janeway & Tuvok x Starfleet Command #Tuvok: Mr. Sulu it's my DUTY to formally protest! <- His life's motto #He's been an ensign for TWO MONTHS!!!!!!!! #and he's like 'Yeah I think I should walk up to the captain on the bridge and tell him he's wrong in front of everyone and also when #he dismisses me I won't leave and instead I'll keep telling him he's wrong' #Janeway would hang someone for doing that EHEHEHE but bc it's Tuvok and he's defending Starfleet Code she's like #'you did the right thing my friend...' #Sulu has a great voice - full of gravity!

I tried to write this prompt as a one shot. It turned into 10 chapters and a follow up story instead. Ooooopsieeees. Written for a Kinktober Day 24 challenge: Fire play. 1 chapter every day until the 23rd and a bonus story on 10/24, which was my original story for the Fire play prompt

Squeeing that you like my game... Thanks! My request: T'Pel, slay #29 (Having to tell you he/she’s dead.)

Parted

(Warning: major character death)

She feels his agitation through their bond. And beneath it, creating it, a spectrum of emotions, like a wave that crashes, buoys, and surrounds. Anger. Grief. Passion. Shame. She sends a soothing pulse along the tendril of connection and packs up her tools, quiet and methodical, her thoughts split between the task and her husband’s swirling emotional state.

Tuvok sits alone in the kitchen, hands curled around a ceramic mug, its contents cooled, forgotten. His eyes flicker to T’Pel when she steps through the doorway from the garden, briefly meet her compassionate gaze before returning to the late morning sky.

“You’ve had news,” she murmurs and he nods a confirmation she doesn’t need.

“Sometime last night.”

T’Pel lowers her eyes. A fortnight ago they’d heard her health was failing. If not for T’Meni’s wedding they would have left for Earth then. But Kathryn wouldn’t hear of it. Tuvok had missed the girl’s birth because of her, or so she believed, and she refused to stand between them again.

It was a beautiful ceremony, a three day long celebration. They were booked on a shuttle leaving this evening. And they would go. But for a funeral now, instead of a farewell.

Perhaps it is better, T’Pel thinks, not to see her bedridden, frail, old. Small. Kathryn Janeway was short in stature, petite, even for a human. But never small.

“I grieve with you,” she tells her husband. A less secure wife might balk at the depth of his feelings for this other woman he’d dedicated so much of his life to. But T’Pel knows a soul bond is unbreakable, and he can share more than one.

Tuvok raises a hand, two fingers pressed together, pointed towards his wife. She touches her fingers to his and traces them slowly, wrapping his hand and mind in a calming warmth.

“I would like to bring a flowering bush,” he says, meeting her eyes. “To plant in Indiana.”

T’Pel flashes a small smile in response, and gestures for him to follow her outside. “We will select it together.”

Smooch, screw, or slay

Aight. I’ll ask the obvious. Kathryn Janeway. And the bonus character is... Tuvok.

Kathryn Janeway (also requested by @rikerssexblouse)

----------

How I feel about Kathryn:

My queen, I pledge thee my undying devotion and beg your forgiveness for indulging in a multitude of sordid sexual fantasies about you and then writing about them in detail.

All the people I ship romantically with Kathryn:

How long have you got? My motto is "Janeway x anyone who can get her off", so basically everyone, but I'll focus on my main ships. Buckle in, this could be lengthy.

1. Chakotay. Obvious. Married. Dessert. J/C comprises 84% of my fics. Enough said.

2. Tom Paris. It's just a little bit wrong and that's what makes it so right. They definitely fucked at some point, and I don't mean in salamander form.

3. Kashyk. Because sometimes a girl fancies a snake-hipped, leather-clad xenophobe with a fetish for dominating her.

4. B'Elanna Torres. If you're going to science the science, science it with a scientist who sciences scientifically. Also, warp cores are hot.

5. Mark Johnson. Oh, Mark. The steady, kindhearted nerd who loves her beyond reason. It could've been so beautiful.

6. Ayala. He's Chakotay without the complications, and he doesn't talk. What's not to like?

7. Justin Tighe. First love always cuts deepest, right? And what a noble, tragic figure this man is. This relationship just begs for exploration, and yes, I plan to.

8. Seven of Nine. It took me awhile to come around to this pairing, but I'm convinced. I don't see them having a lasting romantic relationship, but a fling with feels? Yes ma'am.

9. Owen Paris. Obscene, dirty, filthy, immoral. You rang?

10. Honourable mention goes to a tie between Gabriel Lorca (either version) and Christopher Pike, because you know our lady of the temporal headache would have tapped that given the chance.

Because one is never enough, let's talk about my favourite OT3s for Kathryn.

11a. Janeway x Chakotay x Paris. Oh, the uneasy sexual dynamics here. The mix of love/lust/jealousy/antipathy/competitiveness - who's the top? do they all switch? why aren't there more J/C/P fics?

11b. Janeway x Chakotay x Seven. Hell yes, I need more of this too. Are J/C teaming up to initiate 7 in the arts of the bedchamber? Is J a semi-willing intruder into the C/7 marriage bed? Have J/7 invited C to watch them and perchance to join in? I want all these scenarios and more.

My BroTP for Kathryn:

Tuvok, no contest. I love them. But B'Elanna comes in a close second.

My unpopular opinion about Kathryn:

She can't resist temptation... until she meets Chakotay. By which I mean Alpha quadrant Kathryn liked to fuck around because sex is fun and she's all about exploring, and I have various headcanons on how cool Mark was (or wasn't) with this. Delta quadrant Kathryn, though, can't risk it, at least not with Chakotay, because feelings are dangerous and also she doesn't think she deserves fun anymore. I could seriously go on about this for hours but it would probably turn into a treatise on how going from a varied and enthusiastic sex life to complete celibacy messes with her mind so much she almost loses it or possibly how she ties pain and self-denial and submission and control up in a lovely guilt cocktail but I'm pretty sure I've already done that a whole lot so I'll spare you.

One thing I wish had happened with Kathryn in canon:

A J/C KISS. Fuck's sake. I wouldn't even care if it turned out to be a temporal anomaly or an alternate universe or memory loss or alien possession or whateverthefuck. JUST LET THEM KISS.

---------

Tuvok

How I feel about Tuvok:

Ah yes, the salty grandpa with a soft heart for his captaindaughterbuddy and eyebrows that express the emotions he claims not to have. I love him and his stoicism and his sarcasm and his bluntness.

All the people I ship romantically with Tuvok:

T'Pel. That's it. They're perfection. Don't fuck with it.

My BroTP for Tuvok:

See above re: Janeway & Tuvok.

My unpopular opinion about Tuvok:

I think he secretly enjoyed Neelix's buffoonery. To a point, anyway. When he wasn't mind melding with serial killers and simulating various creative ways to murder the kitchen rat.

One thing I wish had happened with Tuvok in canon:

Can I switch this to one thing I wish hadn't happened? Because Kes kissing him should never have happened. I know she was possessed, but that was a thing I never needed to see.

----

Thanks, @tri42! I’ll get to more of these later.

[bumblingbabooshka]

OMG yea that was the thing about Tuvix that made me by far the most uncomfortable and it's hard to even hold it against him as a person but it must've been so fucking awkward for Kes like. Imagine your boyfriend and your dad get fused and then the fusion hits on you. My god...

This is the future liberals want Or: Voyager's Most Cursed Polycule

#sorry you have to see this with your eyes but I had to draw it so #Q&A #we have to kill him before he gathers more pointy eared petite women with short hair we can't let this continue #If I were T'Pel and I waited patiently with faith for like 5 years and then learned my husband was alive and then learned that he #was actually fused with some alien cook and Janeway DIDN'T discorporate his ass I would discorporate HER #Same with if I was Kes and I love Neelix at this point and Janeway won't unfuse him from my dad/mentor. I'll fuse you to the floor. #I love Neelix & Tuvok - There is nothing to love about Tuvix #bee doodles #If you (general) love Tuvix so much you just gotta start shipping Tuvok x Neelix like the rest of us to get your fix

[bumblingbabooshka]

Tuvok/Chakotay is fun because they can have gay sex while thinking near exclusively about women

#bi kings #Chakotay/Tuvok #the Chakotay(janeway)/Tuvok(t'pel) love scribble #still more understandable than #the Chakotay/Janeway(mark)/Tuvok(t'pel) x Delta Quadrant + Starfleet love black hole

2018 Fanfic Year in Review: May

Parted (G) | @pixiedane | ST:VOY | Tuvok x T’Pel, Janeway | 343 words

T'Pel and six deadly words prompt 29: Having to tell you he/she's dead.

It’s not easy to write Vulcans well, particularly when they’re relating to each other rather than through human eyes, but Pixie does it beautifully here, even subverting the usual Vulcan-human friendship story to tell it through different eyes. This is poignant and spare, and unexpected in so many ways.

High Water (M) | @devoverest | ST:VOY | Janeway x Chakotay | 1,226 words

She needs him like she needs air. He needs not to outlive her.

This is grim and only gets grimmer, but there’s such a beauty running through it – his self-sacrifice, her steel determination, their unutterable love for each other – that I actually felt light-hearted at the end. Sure, it’s miserable. But it’s a love story at the core, and aren’t the best love stories tragedies? And the final paragraph is devastating and raw and exactly, perfectly right.

Cover My Hands Up (E) | @angrywarrior69 | ST:VOY | Janeway x Chakotay | 1,776 words

Prompt #29 - Holding her roughly while kissing her gently.

“I do what I want,” aw69 tags most of her fics, and it’s true and it’s marvellous. This one is more emotional and less perverted than her more recent works (I love both kinds), and it’s an Equinox episode tag which I am always in favour of. Kathryn is chaos, angry and desperate for someone to stop her falling, and Chakotay is at the end of his rope, and it’s sexy and passionate and sad and wonderful.

Pressure (E) | @littletayyswriting | ST:VOY | Janeway x Ayala | 969 words

Ayala discovers a new, exciting side of his Captain.

I’m a sucker for Janeway x Ayala, it’s true, and this is a mouth-wateringly hot little romp. I love that Ayala is exactly what she needs and he’s completely at ease with his place in her oh-so-compartmentalised life.

Sweet Thing (M) | zakhad | ST:TNG, ST:VOY, ST:MU | Troi | 891 words

(From the Diamond Dogs Album series): Vignettes from the bleaker side of Star Trek ensue. Written for a collection (open, unmoderated) for fics with titles from songs - come add a fic, the more the merrier.

In the Mirror Universe, Deanna Troi is a refugee from the Terran Empire who uses her telepathy to protect herself and her mother and to seek out power. This story has her extracting secrets from the Maquis and observing Picard, who has his own agenda.

Fix You (M) | @jhelenoftrek | ST:DSC | Cornwell x Lorca | 5,561 words

“I’d rather defend you, than give your eulogy.” What happens in the days after Gabriel makes the worst decision of his life.

Ah, the days when we thought Gabriel Lorca was a PTSD-suffering war veteran with a complicated love life. This story is as much about Katrina Conwell as it is about Lorca, though, and we know she’s genuine. There are some beautiful passages in this story, particularly when Katrina tries to connect with Gabriel and he finally lets down his guard, but the power struggle between these two becomes even more poignant now that we know that Katrina never stood a chance against Mirror Lorca's lies.
