star trek ladies out of uniform: kira nerys
Here’s a thing I’ve had around in my head for a while!
Okay, so I’m pretty sure that by now everyone at least is aware of Steampunk, with it’s completely awesome Victorian sci-fi aesthetic. But what I want to see is Solarpunk – a plausible near-future sci-fi genre, which I like to imagine as based on updated Art Nouveau, Victorian, and Edwardian aesthetics, combined with a green and renewable energy movement to create a world in which children grow up being taught about building electronic tech as well as food gardening and other skills, and people have come back around to appreciating artisans and craftspeople, from stonemasons and smithies, to dress makers and jewelers, and everyone in between. A balance of sustainable energy-powered tech, environmental cities, and wicked cool aesthetics.
A lot of people seem to share a vision of futuristic tech and architecture that looks a lot like an ipod – smooth and geometrical and white. Which imo is a little boring and sterile, which is why I picked out an Art Nouveau aesthetic for this.
With energy costs at a low, I like to imagine people being more inclined to focus their expendable income on the arts!
Aesthetically my vision of solarpunk is very similar to steampunk, but with electronic technology, and an Art Nouveau veneer.
So here are some buzz words~
Natural colors! Art Nouveau! Handcrafted wares! Tailors and dressmakers! Streetcars! Airships! Stained glass window solar panels!!! Education in tech and food growing! Less corporate capitalism, and more small businesses! Solar rooftops and roadways! Communal greenhouses on top of apartments! Electric cars with old-fashioned looks! No-cars-allowed walkways lined with independent shops! Renewable energy-powered Art Nouveau-styled tech life!
Can you imagine how pretty it would be to have stained glass windows everywhere that are actually solar panels? The tech is already headed in that direction! Or how about wide-brim hats, or parasols that are topped with discreet solar panel tech incorporated into the design, with ports you can stick your phone charger in to?

This cartoon from 1959 really got it.
“Ugh, Chakotay was soooooo boring”
Ever heard that and wanted to strangle the person who said it? No worries, I can relate ;)
First of all, this dude
couldn’t be boring if he tried. Not to mention that this smile
instantly adds 10 years to your life, and it alone would be enough to redeem his character. If there was something to redeem in the first place. Because he’s perfect.
But…. I digress.
So to prove the haters wrong, I did some super scientific sciencing, comparing line counts to get some super scientific facts explaining that he was a fantastic character who just didn’t get enough to do. (Massive kudos to Chakoteya at this point for compiling the list and making it so easy to access.)
Then I applied my overly basic excel skills to come up with the following graphs.
Let’s start with the pure line count.
It’s nuts that as second in command, and Janeway’s closest friend, Chakotay gets about half the lines she gets and even less than the Doc. Also note how Seven had three years less than everyone (well except Kes…) and still managed to not be far behind. Hell, she got more lines than poor Neelix.
Here is how that looks in percentages:
Now, some of these characters get a few lines in almost every episode, so I checked how many episodes feature 10 lines or less for them. For Kes and Seven I obviously only counted the episodes during which they were actually on the ship.
Can I just say: Poor Neelix again!!! B’Elanna is tricky, since Roxann was off-board for a bit to have her baby. The number of episodes in which the Doc doesn’t get to say much are a bit surprising, considering he gets a fair amount of lines overall.
Now, I also wanted to know how many episodes these characters got, that really let them shine. So I checked in how many episodes they had 100 lines or more.
Over the seven season run, Chakotay had exactly 6 episodes that featured a line count of 100 or more. That is the same amount as Harry and Tuvok. To compare: In her 4 years on the show, Seven managed to have 13 episodes in which she had 100 lines or more. That is just nuts!!!
So, in conclusion: Our dear Commander may have been second to only Janeway in the chain of command, but clearly the writers didn’t know what to do with him, leading to such a low count of episodes in which he got to be active. By the way, the episodes that gave him 100 lines of dialogue or more were the following: State of Flux (season 1): 108 Nemesis (season 4): 112 In the Flesh (season 5): 116 Unforgettable (season 4): 124 The Fight (season 5): 150 Shattered(season 7): 155
Man, that sure is wide range is quality… It also kinda shows why Robert Beltran got so frustrated once Braga and Biller took over as showrunners. He has stated that he spent a lot of time being bored out of his brain and I think we can see why.
So. There you go. Thank you for reading my very scientific sciencing.
What fascinated me about him was that he was designed as the alpahest male on the crew - the warrior, the chief, the muscled guy, the guy women are into… even where other should have been “better” (like Tuvok being obv stronger, as a Vulcan), it’s him who was presented as the epitome of straight maleness on the ship.
And yet, he is consistently refusing the usual behaviours and tropes associated with performing this type of masculinity.
He is the guy who stands down immediately, when the captain points out his behaviour will impact if not decide how his crew behaves and is treated onboard. No need for bravado or a pissing contest.
He is the guy who always notices when a crewmember is acting weird, and actively checks on them and asks how he can help. Unless the episode specifically needs another character to fill that role, it’s always him. He was the crew’s caretaker, nurturer in many ways.
He is the guy who (when in his right mind) always refuses to fight, and try to talk and placate others instead. Even when he would or thinks he would win that fight.
To me, Chakotay was one of the first examples of undoubtedly-straight maleness (so, Kirk doesn’t count… to my eyes, his portrayal is very queer even if he isn’t intended to be :p ) being non aggressive, not built on the destruction or control of others. I never doubted for a second that if I were his crew, I’d follow him to hell and back, and I’d expect him to have my back in return!
So, I was very surprised when I discovered the fandom and read dismissals of him as unremarkable, boring as OP said. It made me wonder if all I had seen in him was just personal projection, headcannons and wishful thinking…
… but then again, a lot of VOY’s fandom is about that, isn’t it? Seeing the what-could-have-beens in between the lines of what was actually written and presented onscreen, and loving that.
Well said!
There is a lot of complexity there. He is very kind and calm while he also has an angry side. I mean you watch Maneuvers and you realize you don’t want to piss him off.
Also, please don’t forget:
Dude has some layers. Like all that contrary youth is still in there, years of pent up anger.
Anyway. What I came here to say: He’s perfect. Carry on. ;)
yeeees awesome evaluation of his character, @starfleet-louvelune!
This is a great and very well thought out and expressed post

I call this series “People looking at Tom Paris with affection, despite his atrocious taste in vests.”
I really feel like the Tom and Chakotay photo is from the opening credits of a Perfect Strangers spin-off.

i’ve heard a lot of people talk about the EXCELLENT potential of a high intelligence/low wisdom dnd character (i.e. an brilliant academic who keeps setting their dumb ass on fire because they always store their wand in their back pocket)
but i’ve not seen any posts about the equal potential of a high wis/low int character (i.e. someone incredibly perceptive who gives deep and meaningful reassurance to their friends and then 5 minutes later asks what a can opener is)
