Ok so with “Raffi on Voyager” thinking.

Year of Hell.

Seven stayed with the “senior staff” when the others went into escape pods. Raffi presumably wouldn’t have qualified (although Harry was there) and now I can’t decide what’s more angsty. Seven being all “it is more efficient if you leave as you’ll be safe” or “I will tell the captain I can not complete my duties adequately without your assistance”
