DS9 doodles from the episode ‘’Sons of Mogh’’
I could take your advice…
I’m afraid if I watch this clip too many times, I’ll find the words blurting out of my mouth some day at an inappropriate time.

G.O.A.T
I’m really glad they included the failed attempts because it’s so easy to see someone amazing do something amazing and tell yourself that you’ll never be able to do that so flawlessly. But seeing the failed attempts is a good reminder that even the expects fail and have to train and try again and again.

This is just the Johnny Cash fandom.
Here’s a tale neatly told by @mrs260. Beginning with a “missing scene” from “By Inferno’s Light,” in which Julian sets out to help relieve Garak of his claustrophobia and discomfort, the story follows through beautifully for a few weeks, through smaller scenes between the two of them as well a few with Odo and some others. The series is in three parts – “In the Dark,” “Home,” and “Secrets,” – and each one has a different focus. The first is hurt-comfort turning into something else, the second is slash, and third is an interesting Garak POV piece that examines the nature of Cardassian memory and even their perception of truth.
Excerpt
The smug little smile appeared in his mind’s eye as the self-satisfied voice caressed his ear. “You like this, don’t you?”
“Yes!”
“I suppose you’d like me to keep doing it.”
Was he actually planning to do this properly?! “Please,” Garak gasped.
The hands withdrew and Garak nearly exploded. “We should get back to bed before the patrol goes through,” Julian said smoothly.
Garak hissed, trying to gain control of the situation. “You infernal tease! Get back here!”
“I’m tired.” He didn’t sound the least bit tired. He sounded delighted at his position of power. Then, reasonably, “Come on, Garak, we both need sleep. We can’t do this here anyway. Wait until we’re back home.”
“Of course.” Garak smiled, finding the doctor’s mouth in the dark for one more kiss. “You really have mastered the art of conflict, doctor. When I teach you the finer nuances that allow us to distinguish between antagonism and passion you will be a most stimulating and challenging mate.”
Julian chuckled as they made their way back to the prisoners barracks. “Do you know my first name?”
“Of course.”
“Nobody would ever know,” Julian said archly.

Okay but
after his implant is deactivated, do you think that it takes Garak a liiiiittle while to remember that, when someone winds up to punch him in the face, it’s actually going to hurt, instead of releasing a burst of warm fuzzies?
like there’s a moment of, “ooh, Bolian knuckle-dusters!”
then it’s “…oh, fuck, Bolian knuckle-dusters”
This is an excellent point. Garak probably does these things, with the usual bravado, and then until he learns, is like “Oh, HELL, what did I DO that?” Then acts all cool about it…

Another one of those “This could be Cardassia” posts. Except for that Beetle. I’m thinking Julian and Garak live at the top and have a balcony.
