it’s a black t-shirt with bad graphic art of a wolf howling at the moon and it says “throw me to the wolves and I’ll come back leading the pack”. you know, the kind of thing boomer dads that imagine themselves protectors eat up.

Hiya folks!

This art zine is my very first digital zine I have ever made. 18 pieces of Kathryn Janeway from Star Trek Voyager illustrations by yours truly compiled in an EPUB format.

if something wants to get at your blood, and they’re, say, some kind of murdersaurus, or maybe a really big frog, that’s where the problems start to arise. a really frog is not made for removing blood, and your blood knows this, which is why it is so vehement about wanting to stay IN your body instead of coming out. 

I also like to think this is well into Naomi’s “Captain’s Assistant” fixation, so when she’s informed she’ll be spending a couple of days with Captain Janeway, she sees this as an Opportunity.

Between Naomi’s desire to be a perfect child and thus obviously excellent assistant, and Janeway skimming a few child development papers and walking away with “talk to her like an adult, got it”, both of them are convinced it will be just fine.

And by both of their accounts, it was. Just a small issue with the replicator but that’s fine because everybody likes ice cream for dinner once in a while. Naomi was a Delight To Have Around, and Naomi is returned to Samantha after sharply saluting the captain and then hugging her, which makes Janeway laugh and say “at ease” while also being a bit weepy.

But then a few days later, Sam starts getting odd reports. Neelix says that the first time they re-entered Naomi’s Flotter program, Treevis held Neelix at wooden sword point before kneeling and swearing fealty to Naomi. Naomi just grinned and said “Captain Janeway reprogrammed him to be like a knight so I could learn the responsibility of caring for other people who depend on me! Did you know her mom WROTE FLOTTER???”

Harry approaches Sam the next day asking if everything’s alright because Naomi came up to him and asked whether he “felt a kind of camaraderie - no that was HER word, Samantha - with her over being the two survivors of a doomed alternate timeline”. And then she patted his arm and assured him that “everything would be alright, ensign.”

Most grievously, the Doctor demands to know what kind of media Naomi’s been consuming because she asked him during her check-up if the rendition of Pierrot he’s been humming weren’t “a bit derivative of Jean-Gaspard Deburau, and wouldn’t he like to put his own spin on it?”
