Part 1

Captain Janeway discovers the nebula they're about to use to get home to the Alpha Quadrant, aside from being littered with Borg is also a Borg transwarp hub.

Captain Janeway is angry at the subterfuge and calls off the trip back home in order to come up with a plan to destroy the Borg hub. Admiral Janeway is frustrated by what she thinks is her younger self's self-righteous idealism.

I love the things the Admiral reveals that make Captain Janeway reconsider:

Captain Janeway: You got Voyager home, which means I will too. If it takes a few more years then that's--

But Admiral immediately cuts Janeway off:

This stops Captain Janeway cold. Her fight drains from her eyes.

Admiral Janeways begins to explain:

Again, Janeway looks like someone dropped a bucket of ice water down her head.

It's the addition of 'And neither will you.' that sells the shippy lens for me. Stuck in a strange love triangle where both Seven and Chakotay loved Kathryn Janeway, and Kathryn loved both.

They could have been a throuple but the chains of commanding have a stranglehold on Kathryn Janeway.

Both Janeways take a pause, for the Admiral it's an old wound, losing Seven, and essentially losing Chakotay too. For Captain Janeway, it's a new kind of knife wound.

They also take a beat because Admiral Janeway knows how Captain Janeway truly felt for both. The only one Janeway will admit it to.

Losing Seven is an ever-present wound. But she isn't the only impetus for Admiral Janeway traveling back in time.

"Leave no man behind." This is one of Janeway's key rules for being Captain.

And to hear that she loses 22 more people under her command on top of everyone else and then Tuvok, her oldest and dearest friend...

Captain Janeway talks to Tuvok about his illness and Tuvok assures her that he is still okay but it's true the only cure he has is in the Alpha Quadrant, meanwhile, Admiral Janeway is attempting to persuade Seven into talking Captain Janeway into stopping her foolish plan destroying the transwarp hub.

Admiral Janeway is not gaining much success because, at this point, Seven of Nine has imbibed Captain Janeway's missions as her own.

The Admiral argues that she knows Seven's real reason why she doesn't want to disobey the Captain.

Seven fires back with: "My future is insignificant compared to the lives of the people we'd be saving."

This more than anything is the connective tissue between this Seven and Picard Era!Seven:

"Ranging is my job. It's hopeless and pointless and exhausting, and the only thing worse... would be giving up."

And honestly, Seven having this ready on hand to say to Picard tells me this is the same argument she's had with Prime Timeline Picard Era!Janeway... Right before Seven left Earth for Fenris. (This is pre-Firewall novel, circa June 2023).

She's come such a long way from that proud Borg drone, to this Seven of Nine who would do anything to save a life and atone for what she's done.

Seriously how can one man hold so much gender?

+ bonus:

Simpático, curioso y “hippy”. El diseño que muestra nos puede llegar a recordar al Escarabajo, y es que cuenta con una silueta muy curiosa. El Nissan Figaro viene de Japón pero su inspiración está en Inglaterra.

The cooler, one of my favourite Supernatural props that I own. Now if I just had an Impala to put it in… LOVED “Baby” :)

Sam and Dean’s vintage Coleman cooler

There are only a few props that have been around on the show as long as the boys’ vintage Coleman cooler. It first appears in 3.07, “Fresh Blood“. Dean grabs a seat while Sam works on the Impala.

It’s still around in 10.04 “Paper Moon” when Sam and Dean relax with some beers out by a lake (and again in 10.15).

If you want to try to find this little cooler, there are things that you need to look out for. There is another Coleman cooler that is very similar and it is easy to mistake it for Sam and Dean’s. Here is a quick guide, happy hunting!

If you are trying to find one of the boys’ vintage coolers, there are several that Coleman made that look very similar. Here are some photos of the correct model of cooler, with measurements to help make sure you get the right one. Check the size of the diamond, there is a very similar cooler, but the diamond is smaller. Also, should be no screws in the white part of the lid.
