Au where Tuvok succeeded in 'Prime Factors' and Voyager got home in like a year or less BUT Tuvok got court martialed and sent to a penal colony or something and his days quickly become divided between sad visits with his wife and children, tense visits with Janeway, and homoerotic psychological warfare with his quickly established cellmate - Lon Suder. Because in this AU, since they get back to Federation space so quickly, the Maquis that Voyager 'captured' are still considered criminals that need to be taken down, primarily to send a message to the rest of the Maquis who're still active. (Though their sentences are lessened due to their cooperation on Voyager, also to send a message.) This also means that a not insignificant amount of Tuvok's time is spent being attacked or harassed by the Maquis, their sympathizers, or just in general people who know him as a traitor twice over. Being in close contact with (known extreme violence inflictor) Suder is helpful for that. Unfortunately...the psychological warfare.
#fake star trek voyager episodes my beloved#star trek voyager au#star trek voyager#Tuvok#Lon Suder#Tuvok & Suder's dynamic BUT they're both locked in there together and also Suder doesn't die is very interesting to think about#Also just the overall effects on everyone's life if Voyager HAD gotten back so early on#there are so many potential Voyager aus bc there are so different timelines etc established in Voyager#Tuvok/Suder#I don't think Tuvok would be in there for like the rest of his life or anything (what he did was ultimately to get Voyager home after#all) but I want to explore this version of events#let me make things terrible for my favorite guy <3#people in a penal colony in this au: chakotay tuvok b'elanna tom#people not in a penal colony: kes neelix (who both made it to Earth) janeway and harry kim#Neelix and Kes also visit Tuvok often and that's always fun honestly <3 Neelix would be DISTRAUGHT
