held on tighter to the words you said slowly falling out of your beautiful mouth where's the time that we had left?

Star Trek Voyager | S05xE12 - Bride of Chaotica!

I’d say the viewers very very much liked the episode!

Janeway is given a blessing in the form of a half-human, half-Borg, very beautiful girl, who we call Seven of Nine. So, I am taught vulnerability. I am taught my limitations. I am taught how small I am, in the face of this kind of possible love. Seven of Nine is what brought Janeway to life, as a deeply human woman... and I am deeply grateful for that - Kate Mulgrew [2018]

for those who want what she fully said.

I like that a big part of Janeway and Chakotay's relationship is:

1) Chakotay trying to emphatically convince Janeway not to sacrifice herself

2) Chakotay resigned because she will do it anyway

Remember when Comic Book Guy was trying to download naughty Janeway pics in the 1990's?

#are u kidding me rn

No thoughts, just Kathryn Janeway.

Nobody:

Forreal nobody:

Janeway: I WILL RAM THIS SHIP INTO THE *FUCKING* SUN

Gotta keep that command structure intact!

I need to write my post-voyager fic where janeway is like basically a hired mercenary who starfleet sends in to deal with the borg and they all thank her and laud her for her bravery but she can tell that underneath it all they're not sure what scares them more the borg or the person they send to hunt them

I've said this already in the tags on a different post but I can't stop thinking about Janeway after the Pathfinder project is successful and she starts getting reports from Starfleet HQ about the Dominion War. How inexorable a force the Jem'Hadar seem. How world after world is falling. How the casualties mount. The Maquis have already been destroyed and she can feel the grief from those of her officers who lost friends, but beyond that there's the knowledge that the destruction didn't end with a few rebels on the edge of Federation space. The entire Alpha Quadrant is tearing itself apart, and it's all so far away. Yes, her little ship has face Borg and alien power struggles and a Void without stars - they've lost friends too - but as the numbers keep coming in, day after day, impossibly high, what goes through her mind? Does she wish harder that she hadn't destroyed the array, so that she could have stayed to fight and do her part to save the home she so desperate to get back to? Or is some part of her soothed about her decision, knowing that by putting the needs of the Ocampa before her own, she likely saved the lives of many of the people now under her command? How do you deal with loss on such an abstract yet personal scale, and how do you sit and read the reports of lost battle after lost battle, knowing that it might mean the home you were so desperate for might no longer exist by the time you get there?

What if Voyager ends up being all that's left?

Love both TNG and VOY. But Voyager has that lil' strain of "we're almost certainly going to die out here, but at least it'll be rad" that's just so appealing to me

This episode is so good. This TYPE of episode is so good. It may just be my favorite kind of episode. The kind of episode where Janeway is plagued with regrets and guilt and self-doubt but then in the end the crew comes together to show her that they love her just as much as she loves them and they’re ready to give just as much for her as she gives for them and they won’t allow her to punish herself unnecessarily or throw her life away in a misguided attempt to make things up to them. 

Basically the “everybody loves Janeway SO MUCH” episodes are my favorite episodes.

Like in “The 37′s″ where Janeway gives the crew the option to stay on the new planet even at the risk of not having enough of a crew left to make the journey back home, and then NOBODY stays even though they’ve all been talking about it for days.

Or in “11.59″ where Janeway has to realize and accept that her ancestor Shannon O’Donnel who she has looked up to her entire life wasn’t quite the person Janeway thought she was, and she’s quite disppointed, but then in the end the senior staff comes together to throw a surprise ancestor party or something to cheer her up and remind her that the important thing isn’t who Shannon really was but the impact she had on Janeway’s life.

It’s just so heart-warming, they love her SO MUCH and sometimes she forgets that. The episodes where they remind her are so, so, SO good. <3

🔥commando mode🔥

Kate Mulgrew's script notes from *that* scene in Macrocosm.

[fetch-those-damned-bolt-cutters]

can't believe janeway pulled out the full glam look just cuz she heard that seven might be leaving... ok lesbian

[fetch-those-damned-bolt-cutters]

Instead of Star Trek Voyager integrating the Maquis crew into Starfleet roles, what if the whole ship got radicalized by the second season and the series ends with Janeway getting the crew home just in time to obliterate several Cardassian targets
