[ she knows her first officer well enough to guess what he's getting at, but won't point it out when there's nothing she can do about it. they've had to rough it through tougher situations, been away from voyager without so much as a medkit for longer than this, but knowing that you're stuck here and there's no viable means of getting home makes it that much worse. even lost in the delta quadrant, thousands of lightyears from their homeworlds, they've always had the comforts of home right at their fingertips -- whether it be things they brought with them before the caretaker sealed their fate or replicated somewhere along the way. but, there are no replicators here and they only have what was on their immediate person at their time of arrival. tricorders and phasers are hardly creature comforts. they're basically starting from scratch and faced with being her for an indefinite amount of time. it's as maddening as it is infuriating, and it's a "fate" kathryn janeway refuses to accept. ]
