Yes. This.

I think it'd be funny if Tuvok was from some isolated town where everyone loved him and he hated it. Like, to be clear NO ONE outside of his hometown has heard of him but for some reason his family is important in the town and only this one town [perhaps they're religious leaders due to his strong spiritual ties] and so whenever he's there he's treated like a local celebrity. People stop him to talk in the street. He gets discounts at any local store without asking. If he's visiting with his kids they'll get showered with toys and candy. They love it but Tuvok's grumbling about how this is why he moved... I just think it'd be funny if Tuvok came from a very niche-ly privileged upbringing that he treated like a dark backstory. You don't want to see his childhood hometown....it's fucked up...it was like hell, living somewhere where you were popular and everyone doted on you...you'd never understand his pain. He was voted class president every year and didn't volunteer once. He didn't even show up to a single meeting one year and they still voted him in the next year. When he returns to his hometown after the Voyager incident he finds that nearly everyone in town came to greet him and is logically mortified. Janeway or whomever is like "Tuvok this is such a sweet gesture" while Tuvok's glancing around for a cliff to jump off. He has a plaque dedicated to him at the local temple when he didn't even serve there. Guy who wants to be left alone vs Entire town of people who love and respect him

star trek poll #18?

Please do if you can. Also I'm fed up with keeping on seeing the troupe of 'emotional Vulcan'. This is not an accurate portrayal!!!! With love, Allegcreo.

People honestly portray Tuvok as far too "rolling his eyes, reluctantly going along with Janeway's silly little shenanigans" - he's literally so serious about being right there with her on every decision she makes. Janeway's like "I'm going to stay behind if the ship blows up" and Tuvok's like "I'm staying with you." Janeway's like "I'm going to deliver every member of the Equinox crew into the jaws of death via an alien revenge massacre" and Tuvok protests a grand total of one time before being fully on the bridge assisting her. He was the only one with her when she made the decision to honor the caretaker's wishes and save the Ocampa, dooming them all. He was willing to get court marshalled in order to fulfill a wish she couldn't grant by her own hand: Get them home [no matter what happens to me] <- wherein 'me' is Tuvok. This was the same wish that spurred him forward when he had to leave her on that planet and everyone left thought him cold for trying to fulfill it without her when in his mind it was akin to a dying wish, the last thing she'd ever express to him: Get them home [no matter what happens to me.] <- wherein 'me' is Janeway. He told Seven that the golden rule to follow is that the captain is "ALWAYS RIGHT" <- (His ACTUAL words) and when Seven asks if the captain should be followed even if someone KNOWS she's wrong he says "Perhaps." This man is perhaps the most ride or die dude in the universe about Janeway. Despite her labeling him her 'moral compass' he is by NO means impartial or unbiased. He'd defend her to his last breath. He canonically makes detailed psychological observations about her and has for years. He accounts for her luck when calculating the success of certain plans. It's implied in 'Twisted' that Janeway typically listens to Tuvok's suggestions and follows them nearly without fail - to the point that he's surprised and obviously irritated when Chakotay doesn't. Despite this they've been inside one another's quarters so infrequently that Tuvok can remember each instance. They call each other "Captain" and "Mr. Tuvok" even though they've known each other for twenty years. There's something wrong with them.

I still remember this from my TOS phase back in the late 90s. Catchy little tune.

Reading this has made me realise so many things about Voyager (my favourite trek) that I took for granted. I always knew how close the two were but to put it into this perspective makes so much sense.

One thing I love about how they wrote Tuvok is that they didn't shy away from not making him perfect. He had flaws. He made mistakes. He was angry. He was sad. He missed his family. All these beautiful things that make nuance in a character, in a stereotypically emotionless race. And it's done without questioning how 'Vulcan' he is. His devotion to Janeway a whole other thing.

More people should realise this

ok so this is for people who live in Hammersmith

But who is void and how can I be their friend

[themightyleg]

I don't even get mad. i just get really quiet. what's the point of talking to them and you try to communicate something that bothers you and they act like they didn’t hear you or respect your feelings enough to take it into consideration.
