J/7 Shippers

Or making Youtube videos:) I thought it was time to thread my second Voyager obsession. Seeing as the other thread already exists.

Why do you ship them, teacake?
 
Are you assuming that, since Capt. Janeway and Seven of Nine had so many confrontations and Janeway took it upon herself to instruct Seven on how to behave, that Janeway and Seven were quietly attracted to each other and had an offscreen gay romance? Interesting take if you are.

I suppose if fans from the 1970s could fantasize about Kirk and Spock being secretly gay lovers (the "K/S ladies", I believe David Gerrold called them) then anything must be possible. I would hope, though, that the Janeway/Seven relationship became something other than "sparks flying". Combustible couples in fiction bore me after a while.

Seven and Torres might be another interesting pairing. They are both conflicted and frustrated from within, trying to learn their own true nature.
 
I hear there are a few.

More so becauae they had amazing chemistry with each other but yes, Janeway's attachment to Seven can easily be perceived as romantic attraction.
 
What six posts and no one has rushed in to lecture the thread Janeway and 7 were maternal? Must have been a really great football game on tv.

maternal? I didn't think so. a facilitator-a guide...a pushy over bearing one sometimes.

But no I don't see them as a couple either. If I wanted to I could but I'll leave that to Teacake.
 
Seven can download digital information straight into her brain.

Yup.

She can, if she feels like it play out from security logs all of Kathryn's squelchy encounters with Michael O'Sullivan, or anyone's anything adventures, sexual or otherwise on the holodeck, or anywhere else on the ship monitored by security, in her minds eye, and perhaps even her minds nose, whenever she likes, as often as she likes.

There's no reason not to believe that behind those blue eyes was a multiplex syndicating the entire crews half assed attempts at sex always.

And That Harry is what Seven means when she says "I am Borg".
 
Never really understood why people would want to ship characters that aren't gay. It feels kinda odd somehow.
Not because of the gay part, mind you. No issues with that. I would find it equally odd if there's a gay character on a show and you would ship that person with a hetero character.

But that's me I guess.
 
The lies we tell ourselves.

The only reason that Ellen wouldn't sleep with me is because she is gay.

So if I pretend that she's straight, she's still 20 thousand miles away, in a different tax bracket and married.

Every fantasy we have about anyone gay or straight, requires a massive series of untruths and omissions for that fantasy to become logistically feasible.

Pressing groups of other persons together in our minds requires even more fibbing than that by half.

There are at least 10 reasons why Tom and Chakotay wouldn't hook up, before someone announced "but they're both straight!" first and foremost is that Tom does not respect Chakotay as a pilot.

Putting Spock and Kirk in hot tub together playfully is no more hyperfictious than Picard turning out to be Wesleys real father because everyone cheats on Jack.

Oh.

Also...

Flash fiction is funny.

Yeah, I suppose you're right.

It's because some people (not everyone though) sees more to it than what the general audience sees and if two people look like they could be a couple. Like I would never ship B'Elanna with Janeway or Seven because I don't think they would make sense.

I overused the word see, didn't I?
 
There's at least 4 massive situations where the entire crew is put at risk, and they lose a way home, or time, or space just so Janeway can save Seven of Nine.

If they're not fucking that's completely insane, and the crew should mutiny.

Copy the youtube url (NOT the embed, doesn't work, JUST the url).

Place it between these brackets:

[ yt] THE URL [/ yt]


Lose the space in the brackets, that's there so you can see what to type.

Also you cannot edit the post once you've posted a youtube, or edit the post you put the embed in and add the youtube. Otherwise the youtube disappears because it's a tricky little thing.
