Chakotay/Janeway/Tuvok is fun because none of them are ever actually dating. I literally can’t imagine any of those three referring to or thinking of the other two as their “girlfriend/boyfriend.” One of them is like ‘let’s not put a label on this’ the other is like ‘my race has no label for this’ and the third is like ‘if I try to put a label on this I bet they’re gonna run fast and far’ so they’re all kind of just in muddy water regarding what they are to one another. All that’s there for certain are actions and commitment and [un]luckily these are three people who know how to commit.

#chakotay/janeway/tuvok #thinking about them today....#Chakotay: So Tuvok are you my.............boyfriend now?#Tuvok: ..............................................?? I believe we are a bit beyond the confines of friendship commander.#Chakotay: (ruefully) sure. right out to the great beyond. open sea.#whenever I think about these 3 I think 'oh they'd do so well in a blackbox theater'#Janeway doesn't strike me as someone afraid of commitment it's just in this SPECIFIC case it's safer to keep things somewhat nebulous #safer professionally and emotionally and damn does she need some assurance of safety (which is why you'd feel bad asking for more)#every so often Chakotay's just like.....ARE we dating??????? <- to himself #and wondering if Tuvok & Janeway have the same troubles or not (they do) since they don't seem to worry about it (they do)#st voyager
