star trek voyager enjoyers, i must know: is there a shipname for kathryn janeway and tom paris and if so: what is it? (for research purposes of course)
I knew watching lower decks pretty immediately that it was a love letter to star trek as a whole, but mostly TNG because I had watched TNG before lower decks. What I didn't know because I hadn't seen voyager yet when I watched prodigy, is that prodigy does the same for voyager.
I just finished season 4 of voyager where they run into the Dauntless, and I was like wait wait wait why does that look so familiar and it hit me like a train, it's Janeways ship from prodigy which I remembered from the episode where they're chasing down the protostar. I think if I rewatched prodigy, I'd appreciate more the homages to voyager and care more about the Chakotay storyline. Also I put on that episode, which has a body swap, and it's so fucking funny. Kate Mulgrew really went, this is my chance to be silly and by God I'm going to run with it.
After the poll that showed that there's definitely interest in a J7 Fanwork Event (what format(s) to be discussed), I've set up a Discord Server to hang out, work together and organize more easily.
I will also always share any important information on this blog!
This Discord is explicitly not just for creators but also for fans of fanworks - you wonderful hype-squad! Feel free to share & reblog!
You can follow this link to join:

If you'd like a different way to participate, please reach out to me and let me know directly, I'll then organize an alternative way to involve you in the organization/planning process.
To start, I'm tagging everyone that has reblogged or responded to the poll below the cut!
Keep in mind there are SO MANY characters in star trek there’s no way to include as many characters as deserve to be here. If you have respectful suggestions, I’d be happy to turn them into a follow up poll!
Personally I love Picard’s hand gesture when he says engage, Riker’s head lean into the direction he’s turning, Sisko fiddling with his baseball, and Data moving his eyes like he’s reading when he pulls up information internally. But I know those aren’t big famous moves :)
My Grandma would say while TNG was running “I always found Picard to be a wonderful father figure”
My Grandpa would make “Numba one, I need to go numba two.” Jokes when I was a toddler.
My aunt had a whole room dedicated to TNG memorabilia.
My father would tell me about how terrifying the borg was when they first appeared.
My mother still jokingly calls me “hu-mon” in a ferengi tone to get me to laugh.
I’ve recently watched all of TNG and DS9 (currently going through VOY) and one of the best things about discovering these series is that I’m the third generation of nerd in my family and it just amazes me how these shows can still be enjoyed and related to by every age demographic.
