Tear Jerker / A Fire of Devotion

Go To

Page for tear-jerking moments found in A Fire of Devotion:Most of the fic's Tear Jerker moments come from the show itself; the chapters based on Once Upon A Time and Infinite Regress being chief examples. But the fic does manage a few of its own.

  • From the chapter where Samantha, Seven of Nine, and Naomi get the chance to speak to Samantha's mother during the period of the show when Voyager was in regular contact with Starfleet:
  • The chapter based on the episode Friendship One gets a big one after Chakotay is killed instead of Joe Carey who had been the one killed off in the original in what felt like, to quote SF Debris, a "cruel afterthought". This scene in particular.
    Captain Janeway: Can I see him?
    The EMH: I don't think you should.
    Janeway: This is not the time to pull medical rank with me.
    The EMH: I'm not telling you this as a doctor. I'm telling you this as your friend. I don't want you, or anyone for that matter, to see him as he is now. If I could, I'd forget too, but we already know what happens when we try to alter my memories like that.
  • Part 4 ends with the author dedicating the whole thing to his late father who died in 2016, months before Part 4 was completed.
