I can understand why she'd have problems with that ship in particular, as I suspect the show may have been trying for more of a parent/child vibe there, and people turning that into romance...

(Anonymous) 2012-10-28 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I got the parent/child vibe right from the start, but to be fair, if Janeway were a male Captain taking 7 under his wing in the exact same way it played out on the show, I couldn't absolutely say I wouldn't ship them too, just a little bit.

But then, I have a weird male authority kink, so I might be the only one.

AYRT

I'm sure people would have shipped them if Janeway were a male captain. I can see why people shipped them as it is. But the power imbalance...

(Anonymous) 2012-10-28 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
This particular power imbalance actually squicks me. Seven's basically been in a cult that's consumed her and Janeway saves her, serves as her mother /authority on humanity/model for humanity. Something about them having sex seems so advantage-taking. I see why people like it but it terrifies me.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-28 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
So much this. Seven has no idea what healthy boundaries are, or what a functioning, non-exploitative relationship looks like; all she knows is that on Voyager, Janeway is top dog. The idea of Seven and Janeway getting involved just squicks me to all get-out because of that.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-28 08:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I definitely see mother/daughter there and I really like it. So many scifi shows have strong father figures and Janeway as mother/HBIC really worked for me.

I think it's really best not to ask the actors about their character's sex lives. It is their body fandom is fantasing about and I imagine that's weird. Kate's been very supportive of the idea of Voyager having a gay character, and that character being 7of9 comes up at cons. She's pretty against Janeway in any relationship, because she has to get the ship home, and I think that's fair.

Doesn't take anything away from your ship! (Heck, my OTP never even were on the same show, but I love it anyway.)
