That is a Hell of a send off. I love the little touch of the ad hoc social committee, and the fact that there will be awesome partying tonight, and the breathless anticipation. And Seven and Icheb's moment was so damn sweet. It's amazing how you write such two repressed individuals, keeping them so perfectly in character, and still conveying the love they have for one another clearly and brightly.

Where the heck were Chakotay and Tuvok?
Author's Response:
Ha! You are the FIRST person to call me out on that!
Mostly, I figured not everyone would be near enough to Earth to take a night off to celebrate someone else's mission. As far as where they might be ... Tuvok, I'm guessing, is on Vulcan getting treatment for his neurological disorder and getting to know his wife and kids again. As for Chakotay ... he's not with Seven. That much, I'm sure of.
Glad to see you're still reading, thanks for the comment. :-)

What a launch-a meaningful moment between two generations of crews and Icheb and Seven sharing a last goodbye.

A nice, understated launching ceremony for such an auspicious mission. Having Voyager's crew participate was a nice touch, a definite homage to all they accomplished in their time in the DQ. Captain Oyugo did well with the requisite pomp-and-circumstance, despite her still being unable to get a bead on the admiral. 
I'll be fascinated to see what's become of the various species Voyager introduced us to, and how the Delta Quadrant has fared in the intervening years.

Good to see the Tesseract underway. Adele's emotional state ahd to be in flux and that was related with her in the privacy of her own room. I like how in the launch she does not allow herself to be discomfited by the Admiral. Because for some reason he discomfits me! Her growing awareness of her subordinates and their potential to cause headaches with romances and everything else to boot is the mission becoming a reality for her. They are going to be out there and on their own for a time to come.
I like the thought of the crew celebrating this bug moment and the recreational deck being a hub of a party. Good to see that the crew has a fun spirit and a will to party.
Then we have the message from Janeway and the Voyager crewmembers. Totally spot on that they would have mixed opinions and feelings about this mission. And it is a fitting touch to have them address the crew. For Icheb it must be difficult to be setting off for a corner of the universe he knows so well but with a crew he has yet to know and trust in - thankfully he has his friends to call upon.
Onwards then to the adventures.
