“just how close do we get?” janeway asks with a girlish, nervous itch in her fingers–because this man from her future has her treasured copy of dante’s inferno and would clearly do anything for her… isn’t it obvious that one day she’ll love him?
It really is the hands that make this interaction. Just brilliant pieces of acting. Her nervous hands and the fact that he has braced himself on the railing, like he knows what’s coming and can’t bear to have to tell her the truth. Inspired.
Baby Janeway met this man roughly six hours ago and she is SMITTEN
