Gomez Addams always believed funerals were the perfect place to meet kindred spirits but he didn’t expect to be thunderstruck by a mysterious enchantress standing beside the casket of his dearly (and recently) departed cousin Balthazar.
She’s beautiful and mysterious. She’s also… the widow.
Who exactly are you describing here, Kathryn?
There’s an episode of Sesame Street (on Netflix! you can watch it easily!) where Elmo attends a toy-swap, where you offer up old toys you don’t play with anymore and receive someone else’s toys that are new to you. Cute!
But Elmo, after cheerfully surrendering his old toys, sees that the children who swapped toys with him are playing with his toys “wrong”! They’re imagining entirely different make believe scenarios! They’re pretending the football is a dinosaur egg instead of a rocket ship! Aaahhhhh!!!! And this is so distressing to poor Elmo that he does the unthinkable: He does swapsies-backsies and takes all his toys back!
This being Sesame Street, he learns that you can’t control how other people play pretend, but you can join in if you want to! And if you don’t want to, that’s ok, you can just play pretend your own way by yourself or with someone else who wants to play that way too. You can still be friends with people who play pretend differently than you (and aren’t being mean/harmful/etc, do not bad-faith-read this 🤨).
Anyway this is a post about fandom.

Chapters: 25/40 Fandom: Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: Voyager (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Relationships: Chakotay/Kathryn Janeway, Tom Paris/B'Elanna Torres, Kathryn Janeway & Seven of Nine, Chakotay & B'Elanna Torres, Seven of Nine & Naomi Wildman, Kathryn Janeway & Tuvok (Star Trek) Characters: Kathryn Janeway, Chakotay (Star Trek), Tom Paris, B'Elanna Torres, The Doctor (Star Trek), Seven of Nine, Harry Kim, Tuvok (Star Trek), Neelix (Star Trek), Samantha Wildman, Naomi Wildman, Voyager Crew, Kashyk (Star Trek) Additional Tags: Romance, Hurt/Comfort, Fluff and Angst, Mutual Pining, Team as Family, Developing Relationship, Established Relationship, Fluff and Humor, Male-Female Friendship, Friends to Lovers, Friendship, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, to be taken with a pinch of salt at times, some light-hearted liberties were taken, Explicit Language, But Not Much, Sexual Content, Non-Explicit Sex, this fic is really mostly T rated with some M situations, follows the timeline but with the J/C romance thrown into it, Work in Progress, Book: Mosaic - Jeri Taylor, Behind the Scenes, POV Multiple, Creative license was taken Summary:
Kathryn Janeway always believed in clearly defined parameters.
When one was lost in the uncharted territories of the Delta Quadrant, the parameters provided a safety net, helping her maintain the professional relationship between the two commanding officers of the Federation Starship Voyager.
Some parameters, however, can be very hard to define when the whole universe seems to conspire to pull you together.
AU of season 5 onwards, in which Janeway and Chakotay get together and navigate the challenges of maintaining a romantic relationship and the demands of command. Starts around Timeless and follows the timeline, tweaked where necessary to fit with the AU.
Gotta love Scientific Method as an episode. They finally figured out that Janeway is at her best stressed, angry, and trying to blow up the ship, so they contrived an entire episode around making Janeway stressed, angry, and actively trying to blow up the ship. Perfect episode formula, no notes, 5 stars XD
STAR TREK: VOYAGER // S1E10: Prime Factors
Kathryn Janeway: QUEEN, ICON, GODDESS.
what personal space: a photoset
eventually they’ll just be having sex by default. and I’m fine with that.
Imagine standing this close to your coworkers or your boss ALL THE FUCKING TIME

thinking about the episode where kathryn janeway tells an alien that while other kids were outside making friends, she was indoors doing quadratic equations. (Sacred Ground, fwiw). she does this to imply she was never very adventurous or friendly.
I read that woman’s biography (Mosaic) and her autobiography (The Autobiography of Kathryn Janeway), and listened to her later tell her own crew of various adventures like sneaking out of the house and walking miles in a thunderstorm after losing a tennis match.
woman almost died cave diving because her friends chickened out and she went with a boy instead. got a commendation for sneaking off campus because she saved an old woman’s life in the process. built a replica of da vinci’s flying machine so she could pilot it onto the roof of the dean’s office.
Kathryn Janeway is a scientist in the way Indiana Jones is an archaeologist. undoubtedly qualified, but there’s gonna be a caper about it.
rather than view her statement as an outright lie or a bad characterization by the writers, however, the funnier option is that she thinks of herself as rather introverted, withdrawn, and nerdy. That she is so deep in the trenches of her own mental landscape that she doesn’t realize that other people view her pursuit of science and diplomacy as acts of extreme charismatic recklessness.
which makes it doubly hilarious that jock Kathryn Janeway, who destroys the entire ship at Velocity and routinely heads her own away missions and has single-handedly reclaimed her ship from hostile aliens multiple times, looks at herself and thinks: yeah, I’m very boring.
I'm firmly convinced that if Star Trek: Janeway ever happened it would be the last nail in the coffin of JC. However, I still think there's so much about Janeway that would be amazing to see. I'd love a show that would give full agency and voice to older women, I'm talking 70+.
And Janeway is such a great role model because she was fully in acceptance and in love with her feminine side (even though she insisted on that whole no love and martyrdom theme but whatever). She was never trying to me more masculine. She embraced her femininity and led with it, not despite of it. And there is so much Kathryn Janeway still has to offer that I desperately want to see it.
What I'm imagining is something like what The Expanse did with Avasarala. Give me Janeway as a heavyweight galactic diplomat in a room full of admirals and ambassadors.
I want her to tell some raging, male politician "oh I'm sorry, it was not my intention to offend your tender sensibilities, Jeffrie," deliberately forgoing whatever title he holds
Hollywood is terrified of women over 60. Over 70 is basically uncharted territory unless you're Judi Dench or whatever. I want Star Trek, a franchise literally built on the premise that the future is better, to have the guts to put a woman in her seventies at the center of a political thriller and let her be the most formidable person in every single scene.
Don't give me pew pew pew starship exploding pew pew pew the world is ending pew pew pew borg borg pew pew pew
Give me Admirals Janeway with grey hair and and absolutely zero patience for bullshit diplomacy.
And if we're feeling particularly generous, let's not kill off Chakotay and explore a mature love, reclaiming second and third chances at personal happiness. Gimme old people in love.
Touching Bedside Manners 🥰
When it comes to Chakotay, Janeway has always had a very touching bedside manner...
And years later, Chakotay finally allows himself to touch her, too.
I hope you enjoy! ❤️
It's been a while since I made a Cartoon Voyager, I hope this one makes up for it 😁
