Summary: Friendship and love can happen in the most mundane situations; for Ezri and Kes, it happened thanks to an accidental bump.
“What really happened?"
"Voyager encountered a subspace anomaly which created a kinoplasmic radiation surge throughout most of our computers. Unfortunately it happened while you were using the holodeck.”
Kes: I don’t understand why people treat him the way they do.
Janeway: How do people treat him?
Kes: As though he doesn’t exist.

[Still disappointed with how Voyager got rid of Kes. It would have made much more sense for her to leave as a mark of growth and adulthood - as seen in The Darkling.]

[I know Seven was brought on to boost ratings, but after they dropped Kes my interest in Voyager went with it.]
Some days are okay but other days all i can think is ‘damn Kes deserved so much better’

[I hated Fury, that episode where Kes came back to Voyager with a vengeance. Kes wasn’t a favorite of mine, but she should have gotten much more than a one-episode comeback with a shaky storyline – at the very least, she should’ve gotten a two-parter that dealt with whatever she went through after leaving Voyager, and showed her coming to terms with what she had become. Instead, they made her look like a trans-galactic two year old with a temper. That’s not Kes, that’s bad writing.]
I hate this episode with a burning passion, because Kes is actually my favorite character in all of Voyager, and she already had a terrible treatment before, they didn’t need an special episode to make it even worse.
