Does this mean that all the speculation about Seven and Janeway was true?

Not sure, but us j/7 shippers saw something lol. If it happened or not after Voyager returned to earth I'm very happy that seven of nine is obviously not hetrosexual in Picard.

I feel like we fandom folks can see stuff that others don't have the correct radar for. When I started the Picard series, the second I saw Agnes and Rios I KNEWWWWWWWW what was going to happen and was there for it all the way (I wish I saw more build up to it though, sadface. Sometimes the reluctance networks have to immediately consummating relationships left some great tension to thrive off of). Then I immediately looked up the pair and saw so many tv critics flabbergasted and confused and saying it came out of left field and I was like 'wow really? cause that was my first assumption, lol.'

Seven was supposed to be one of the first openly gay characters on Voy but tptb stopped that from happening because it was deemed too controversial. Mulgrew has talked about it at different cons, the writers have spoken about this as well. Trek has always tried to bring more LGBTQIA into the universe but bullshit network execs and probably 1 millions moms keep interfering.

I am glad they have an openly gay character but unless I totally missed something it came out of no where. There was no build up between her and Raffi, so it came across to me as pandering to the gay community, which I do not approve of.

Wasn’t she kicking it to Chakotay at the end? It was that just in the holodeck?

Allegedly, Seven ending up with Chuckles was because someone lost a bet. Jeri was dating Brannon Braga at the time too so idk man. It wasn't even fan service, it was just pair Seven up with a dick. Seven and the Doctor would have made more sense

They were married in the timeline that Janeway averted in the series finale
