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

STAR TREK CREATOR CHALLENGE
Week 6 - An episode so bad, it's good
Threshold
I guess this whole experience has left me feeling a little overwhelmed. Flying at warp 10, evolving into a new life-form, mating, having alien offspring...
[Image description: three gifs in lavender tones from Star Trek Voyager focusing on the episode Threshold
Gif 1: Layout of six gifs of different sizes. The first show Paris piloting the shuttle to Warp 10. The second shows Kes in Sickbay, looking distressed. Below is a gif of the senior crew sitting around a table and smiling.
The second row is comprised of one gif of the Doctor waking Paris by shouting at him, then a gif of Janeway standing on the bridge, worried. The last gif is Torres in engineering, looking focused.
Gif 2: Broken mirror effect showing Paris and Janeway as lizards. The broken pieces of the mirror have the same gif though displaced. In the middle of the gif, there is written "For a moment, I was everywhere"
Gif 3: Layout of five gifs. The first row has two gifs, one of Kim on the bridge, and the second one shows Tuvok and Chakotay talking in Sickbay.
The second row is comprised of two gifs of Paris in different stages of his mutation, and one gif of the lizard babies coming out of their hole in the ground.
