What about J/7?

Given her background, I could easily imagine Seven developing an infatuation for Janeway. As far as I know, Janeway was always portrayed as straight, so it wouldn't be reciprocated.
Even if Janeway were interested in pursuing a relationship, I rather think she'd be too aware of the ethical issues involved. Seven could probably be classed as a vulnerable adult, and as such it would be inappropriate and immoral for a guardian figure to get too emotionally involved.
 
Yes, that's a very good point. In fact, I've never considered that before. However, I could see the same argument for Chakotay, however. Well, minus the gay/straight thing.

Of course, when it comes to shipper fandom, the sexual preference on screen often does not apply. ;)
 
I saw J/7 as a mentor/student relationship at first, but the chemistry between these two became very persuading for me with time. I too have seen such relationships becoming much more in real life ;)

I'd say I'm a Janeway shipper and I can live with many J/? pairings. So, in the later seasons I like J/7, I'm also partial to J/C in seasons 1-3, I absolutely adore J/Kashyk and J/Doctor works for me either (because of the same "mentor/student that become more" thingy). :lol:
 
While I do not wish to provoke an arguement, my sympathy honestly was not for Seven of Nine but for P'Chan, Lansor, and Marika. The suffering they endured was terrible. And I especially felt for Marika's husband, to not know his wife's fate and to possibly learn later on down the road that his wife died because of her condition and that the woman responsible for the condition that killed her was still alive...

But P'Chan, Lansor and Marika would have inflicted hell on the many people they assimilated. They are as responsible as 7 for all kinds of evils.

And yes.
 
I can see a certain amount of chemistry between the two, yes. Enough that I'm not surprised by the following. At the very least, J/7 makes a heck of a lot more sense in that way than C/7 did!

But I can see it in a mother/daughter or mentor/student light, too, and overall tend to see it that way myself. Admittedly, that probably because I'm much more a fan of the J/C relationship.

I don't think the mentor/student and les!Yay readings are necessarily mutually exclusive, the older-woman crush being such a common lesbian fantasy.

I think I could definitely have gotten behind this pairing had the character development for both of them not been so uneven over the series.

I will always have a soft spot for JetC though.
 
I know its not cannon but i forgot which book it was. The book was set in the future where the borg and the feds. and allies and 7 and the doctor got married. And the relationship between the two seem really convincing.

I think it definitely could have gone there. However I also think 7 would have outgrown him.
