"You are angry."
Janeway glared. "Damn right I’m angry, Tuvok. If Chakotay and I aren’t unified in our leadership, this crew will split apart. If he had trusted me enough to come to me, I probably would have agreed with him. Instead, he takes off on his own and I look like an idiot."
"Your point is valid, but I believe his intentions were good. He wanted to spare the ship any more danger."
"It wasn’t his call. Dammit, I thought he was dead."
"Are you angry with his action, or the concern it evoked?"
"Both." She looked surprised. "Both."
