Chakotay/Seven - the pairing that came out of nowhere.
- Thread starter HelenofBorg
- Start date
We all evolve... eventually. Some take longer than others and some might have Borg parts still affecting their actions.The fact that he tried to throw her out an airlock notwithstanding ...
Hey, Archer threatened to knock T'Pol on her ass in their very first conversation over far less and half their conversations in season one were angry as fuck, yet a good third of the fanbase shipped that back in the day.The fact that he tried to throw her out an airlock notwithstanding ...
Also, Reylo.
Different strokes, I guess
It was pretty sudden but I think "Human Error" was both plausible enough in itself and a good-enough lead-in. And sometimes I do prefer a surprise romance to one that is pushed from the start and/or for years, assuming that we will or trying to force us to love a couple can be more annoying (Dax and Worf, to a lesser extent Paris and Torres). Dramatically the pairing did seem just to increase the drama of the finale, especially the urgency of getting home earlier, but that was an OK decision and tactic (a finale can and even should introduce new elements for more drama).
Seven and the Doctor had chemistry but, kind of one episode aside (kind of "Virtuoso"), it was consistently clear the only romantic attraction was one-way from the Doctor. Seven and Kim could have worked but that would have had to be more built up, with Kim depicted pretty differently in the last 3-4 years.

"Human Error" explained Seven's attraction, sure, but not Chakotay's. She's easy on the eyes sure, but we don't see anything out of him before Endgame.
