#I'm glad Chakotay didn't end up with Janeway in canon bc they would have ruined it - the writers are bad at intentional romance

[bumblingbabooshka]

Chakotay->Janeway<-Tuvok meta lesbian vibes because in one relationship (Chakotay/Janeway) they act extremely piningly romantic towards one another, yet it never goes anywhere and the narrative ultimately acts as if they're just friends despite this and in the other relationship (Janeway/Tuvok) they are extremely devoted to one another, have a long and storied past and might be shipped under different circumstances (Ex: Janeway was a man, Tuvok was white) but get the 'besties only' treatment in fandom
