Honestly, the fact that there's still this level of interpersonal tension between Tuvok & Chakotay FIVE YEARS into the Delta Quadrant (though it no longer seems to be affecting their working relationship) is so juicy and also kind of insane - it's REALLY a shame that the bad blood between Chakotay and Tuvok was never fully explored because again this is SO LONG into them knowing each other for this tension to exist where Tuvok still jabs at Chakotay (despite no longer being insubordinate to him and seeming to genuinely grow to respect him) and Chakotay openly admits that they don't like each other.

#Voyager Crew's terrible work environment is enviably in its complexity #Janeway: I'm so glad my two good friends Tuvok & Chakotay are getting along #Tuvok & Chakotay: -five years into an interpersonal cold war- Yeah.#In my mind 'Twisted' is where Voyager frames their tension being put out into the open and thus ended #<- in reality I don't think just stating that you don't like each other means the conflict is resolved but I don't recall it being addresse #past this episode?? If so - that's THREE YEARS ago and nothing's really changed #they're STILL at Chakotay saying 'I don't like you but I respect you professionally'#and Tuvok saying 'I don't like you either' (with the addition of perhaps an unspoken 'but I respect you professionally now too')#This is what happens when you don't have a ship's counselor and you're also the two most senior officers on aboard besides the captain #star trek voyager #Chakotay #Tuvok #st voy #Chakotay: (has known Tuvok five years and is part of a command trio with him) Can I ask your advice?#Tuvok: I don't know. CAN you?#I'd strangle him idk how Chakotay keeps the peace HEHEH I'd be shaking him
