the chakotay and neelix friendship is so underrated and understated it hurts!!! mortal coil (where he saves neelix pretty much) and night (neelix holding onto him 😭) are some good examples of their friendship, but there are so many other small moments you gotta pick up on. chakotay seems to be so aware of how neelix is fuckin up the kitchen with borg tech or plasma whatever 😭 like why does he give janeway a daily kitchen update?? and then he jokes about putting people in the kitchen to "help" neelix which makes me he hangs out with neelix enough to hear how funny his process is. but also it's clear chakotay knows how passionate he is about benefitting the crew because chakotay never really tries to hold neelix back from his attempts to help out
