Phoebe Janeway loved spring and it was a beautiful day... where else would she be but outside? She was laying on her back in the field with her sketchpad enjoying the sunshine when her newest puppy, a cute english setter she named Rosie, pranced over particularly proud of herself.

"Hey Rosie." She greeted, then she noticed the half a sandwich

Seven of Nine fortuitously turns the corner ahead of Phoebe Janeway. She was in earshot for the outburst, and she purses her lips as though she found it objectionable.

Her eidetic memory isn't immediately cooperative. She fails to make the connection between this new arrival (an undisciplined, unthreatening figure) and the captain's rarely-seen assortment of family pictures. In her native time period, Voyager has yet to establish contact with the Alpha Quadrant, and while she knows the Janeway clan anecdotally and by name, on-sight recognition is beyond her.

Phoebe has not made a positive first impression. Seven can't abide criticism of her guide to humanity, unless she's the source of it. Her tone is predictably brusque.

"Captain Janeway is not responsible for this phenomena."

Phoebe scoffed, still annoyed about whatever this was and not particularly interested in rational thought or reasoning at the moment.

"Oh yes she is. I don't know how, I don't know why, but somehow it is! Anytime something weird or crazy happens somehow it's Kathryn's fault."

Well, we're very sorry, but rational thought and reasoning is about all Phoebe can expect from the Borg.

"A spatial and temporal anomaly on this scale is beyond even her capabilities."

Seven is observing Phoebe with a studying intensity.

"How are you acquainted with--" She doesn't feel able to repeat the name without putting it in audible quotation marks. "-- 'Kathryn'?"

That's perfectly fine, she's starting to calm down now.

"I'm her sister, Phoebe." She crossed her arms and looked around again. "And you are? I mean besides Kathryn's apparent cheerleader?"
