Captain Janeway was always making the best of being stranded far from home by studying everything they could find. She's the definitive "Explorer" for me.

Title: wander/wonder
Fandom: Star Trek Voyager
Character: Kathryn Janeway
Rating: G
Length: 100 words
Summary: Kathryn sits on the Bridge, wondering what new thing they'll stumble across next.
Link: here on ao3 or you can read it under the cut below

There will always be a part of Kathryn that feels guilt over stranding her crew so impossibly far from home, even if it was the right choice to make. 

But there's another part of her – the curious scientist she's nurtured since childhood – which is grateful they're stuck somewhere interesting. 

Kathryn sits on the Bridge, wondering what new thing they'll stumble across next. 

“Captain, I'm picking up something on the long-range scanners,” Harry announces.

“What is it?” 

He furrows his eyebrows. “Not sure. It's… kinda weird.” 

She feels a spark of excitement in her gut. 

“Let's go take a closer look.”

This totally nailed the Explorer archetype. And, despite never having seen an episode of "Star Trek: Voyager", I could hear Kate Mulgrew's voice as I read the last sentence. Well done!
