I feel like we seriously need to talk about these gifs: The oh so gentle way he reaches out and caresses her arm, as much emotional as physical steadying. The way they turn their faces towards each other in perfect unison. The way they react to jostling somehow by going towards each other (rather than in the same direction)… like their instinct is to come together for support no matter the circumstances.
Also they both just look really pretty here with their perfect hands and her romantically starting to fall out of its confines hair and their worried little faces and perfect profiles and sad eyebrow raises and glorious cheekbones and his oh so kissable lips.
This so perfect.
You can see that even with the whole crew around them they seek comfort and assurance in each other.
She doesn’t just take his arm - he lays his hand over hers. This is such an intimate gesture. (Also why did that woman have to walk in front of them right then?)
Now look at that. That’s not just relief, that’s “I need to touch you all over to make sure you’re really not dead” relief.
That’s “Let me truly look at you again before I leave you for two seconds in case you die on me again”
And finally, this is “I’ve seen half of my crew down, but Oh God, not him, please not him” angst.
These two are just so close and intimate with each other.
You called?
I feel like this needs to make the rounds again.
It’s more than worthy, don’t you think?
More than worthy. This post can constantly be on my dash for all I care!
Wow. Such a connection! Live on my dash, kthx. Also that one GIF, #3…can we title it “The Caress”?
There is so much more here than just “captain and first officer.” In any of the gifs, really. Can you imagine Kira going into Sisko’s office with a peace rose, or Riker sobbing over Picard’s body? No. Because the Janeway/Chakotay dynamic is more than that and should have been acknowledged through the end of the series. *sigh* but I guess that’s why we have fanfic
This post is such pure, essential J/C.
They care so deeply for each other and their relationship is just so very special.
She touches him all the time:
But he’s also so concerned with her well being.
And then can I just ask how so far we missed this:
Cause they just hold hands. On the bridge. In front of everyone. Completely unapologetic.
Their love and support of each other is just so damn beautiful.
I must reblog this every time it comes across my dash. It’s in my contract
This post is everything. And should always be reblogged.
I love everything this post chooses to be.
(Also I love that it’s a het ship that isn’t based on haha they’re so incompatible or haha they hate each other, it’s based on they’re each other’s best friend and they love and trust each other.)
I just always need this here.
I’m in love with that fact that this post is going around again.
And while I’m at it:
(all gifs by @janewayseyebrow)
The flirt is strong….
The simple intimate gesture of touching his foot… my very long married grandparents did that as a sign of affection.
Then to his chest…
And finally a gesture that would have been a kiss had they been alone.
I’ll conclude with:
Long pat on the *inside* of his knee, that she doesn’t move until he does. These are two people who are extremely close and intimate with each other.
And he clearly looks just as good walking out of a room as he does walking into it. ;)
Again all gifs that I just added are by @janewayseyebrow
I’m looooooving all this soo much!!! My JC shipper heart is so full!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I need this on my dash again
Ahh, it’s back. I needed some fluff this morning
