I'm on record that I'm not Chakotay/Seven for years until recently when I realized how hilarious their relationship is. Hilarious and angsty with a huge side of awkward.

To borrow a Succession phrase: Chakotay/Seven is the Fail Relationship.

But also, Chakotay is a great starter relationship partner for Seven, and Seven is a low-stakes romantic partner for Chakotay.

being thrown back into the Alpha Quadrant basically a few hours after having decided to be together? I really don't think the relationship survived for very long

I really agree with this! I also feel their priorities shifted the moment Voyager returned to the Alpha Quadrant.

Bjayzl had a lot to answer for when it comes to Seven's skittishness about relationships that's one trauma I don't think Seven's even processed -- on top of all the other trauma in her bag.

B'Elanna would most certainly give Chakotay a look and in the Judgiest Voice say: "Really?"

I can't blame B'Elanna tbh, Chakotay and Seven are kind of odd together and I'm not sure it would've worked out in the best-case scenario

Honestly, I can't believe they even made it all the way into marriage in the alternate timeline. I feel like at that point Chakotay and Seven, while liking each other might have also been playing a game of chicken except they're both stubborn and never know when to quit. So they kept doubling down. And because in my head, both Seven and Chakotay were really in love with Janeway, it's all three smiling at each other with really painful smiles, assuring each other: We're happy, you're happy that we're happy.

It's their version of I know you know that I know.

I gotta say, you're posts are making me think how hilarious Chakotay/Seven are, and I love how it's actually coinciding with me figuring how to write a story with Seven and B'Elanna. Also! I agree the moment B'Elanna figures out about them, she would be "WTF, man!" At Chakotay, since that was all I could picture when I was trying to write a scene between them.

* (In my head, Chakotay/Seven was angsty and then hilarious because for me, Seven hasn't spoken to Chakotay in 20 years. And then I realized when Seven breaks up with someone she ghosts them for 20 years or kills them. and then does the opposite with Raffi).

Oh man I just keep thinking about Chakotay/Seven because you're so right, it's hilarious as a pairing but also angsty.

Between Seven being Seven and having no experience with relationships whatsoever (and facing said new experience like she does with everything else, with the subtlety of a battering ram) and Chakotay who I think is genuinely fond of Seven (he's been in her corner pretty much since he put his own brain on the line in order to disconnect her from the Collective) and could be very patient with her but also has his own bad experiences with women using and/or deceiving him. I don't know what he would do if, for example, Seven confessed that she used his likeness in a holoprogram. It could get angsty very fast, is what I'm saying.

But in general I think of them as a funny couple, I think most of their interactions would go much like the scene in which Seven and Chakotay kiss for the first time. I'm sure Seven will keep thinking that there is a script they should follow for 'progressing' the relationship and Chakotay sighing and having to explain that no, actually there is no script, until Seven finally gets it. (But Seven will keep trying to find the way in which you can Win At Relationships And Sex because nothing is worth doing unless you can do it perfectly the first time around, isn't it.) I think Chakotay understands that Seven generally cares more than she lets on, and he's challenged her to express said care and broaden her horizons a few times over the years (“One Small Step” and “Natural Law” come to mind) and Seven does care about him a great deal otherwise I don't think she'd have ever suggested they try dating in the first place.

And yes lol B'Elanna will be SO DISAPPOINTED in Chakotay once she learns of his relationship with Seven, there's no way she would take that information with any kind of neutrality. I'm not sure he would confront him, mostly because by that time she's probably very busy with a newborn baby, but B'Elanna would think less of both of them for it.

I can't blame B'Elanna tbh, Chakotay and Seven are kind of odd together and I'm not sure it would've worked out in the best case scenario, but being thrown back into the Alpha Quadrant basically a few hours after having decided to be together? I really don't think the relationship survived for very long, especially since we know Chakotay got a Starfleet commission and Seven didn't. That was very likely the final blow, and it was probably ugly and full of angst. I wouldn't be surprised if they hadn't spoken to each other in 20 years like you said.

And by the time of Star Trek: Picard it has become a bit of a pattern for Seven, hasn't it, to just run as fast as she can away from anything that has a chance to hurt her (I'm thinking of how she tried to run away even in “No Man's Land”). To be honest I don't blame her given the whole Bjayzl thing—by the time we see Seven again Chakotay is likely a very distant memory for her, and the end of that relationship just the beginning of all her troubles in the Alpha Quadrant. But it's not like Chakotay did much better for his part since he got stuck in the Delta Quadrant again, lol. Truly a couple of people who do Not have luck by their side!

I'm sorry this got so long and rambling, I'm just weirdly fond of this ship! I wasn't always but talking to @avoicefromthestars really sold me on them and @fate-motif has the best ideas when it comes to their post-canon breakup. I'm very glad if you can see the potential of this ship even a tiny bit, and now I'm very curious to see how you made it fit with writing about Seven and B'Elanna 👀

i'll be honest here-- these multi-character banners going forward are gonna be freakin' miserable once they add caleb and whoever the 6th love interest will be.

i understand locking some rewards behind wishes made, as an incentive for players to do a certain amount of pulls, but memory rank ups?! that's just plain cruel.

confession. every time i see yj or timkon stuff where people make up a way for kon to have gotten his piercing i twitch a little. yall theres a canon reason he has a piercing and its that when they grew him in a tube they attached a tag to his ear. you know, like cattle?? he was labelled and tagged experiment #13.

the thing is i agree with the sentiment that chappell roan's lyrics r taylor swift tier but also a) no one is sincerely calling her a genius lyricist, her brilliance is in her showmanship, theatricality and performance more than anything else and b) we r entitled to a lesbian taylor swift whatever

Doing a lighting study while watching my shows

Wondering if procedural romance works so well for me because the genre and it’s tropes require the characters be workaholics

[phantom-remix]

listened through the highest and. well. ratings

go higher: soft 127 launch.........? just a very incongruent song to me like genuinely baffling. if the rest of the song was more like the chorus or bridge i might've been into it. if the chorus was more like the rest of the song i might've felt no confusion hating it. instead i've never been more confused listening to a song in my life

tempo: they stole exo's title and couldn't even deliver 25% of what made exo tempo good... um. better than go higher i guess but that's a really low bar

deep ocean: i like this one...! was really scared when yangdery's voices came on but it was like normal. nice to listen to. tentatively +liked

what a good time: this one was fine i liked it better than invincible. not the worst girl who's going to be okay song out there for sure

images: i think i like this one? upgraded from fine to nice to listen to which is something. +liked

bandage: i like this one the best out of all the songs i think. the anime op vibe is cute. +liked

overall: 3/6 which is on track for most wayv albums for me i guess. no song really stood out to me which is a little unfortunate. go higher i think baffled me so much it colored my perception of the entire album though which is really unfortunate

the thing about the meat grinder is that finnikin knows full well what it is. like the lines about what it does to froi/trevanion/perri are from his pov. but he wants that perceived connection with his dad/acceptance from (what he thinks of as) his peers (adult men/warriors)/membership of the in-group so bad that he's jealous of froi anyway

[bougiebutchbitch]
