6x18: Bashir Must Suffer, O’Brien Must Be Losing It
Join Me
6x15 ‘Honor Among Thieves’
well I was gonna just watch a selected recommended scene of this one, but then these are the first shots and like hell am I leaving Victoriana Blade Runner??
- dim grungy bar and Miles O’Brien ~undercover~, oh yeah no I’m definitely here, *signing on*
- this alien dude with the dataport using the console like he’s conducting in mid-air, holy cow I love that
- it is hilarious but somehow believable to me that Miles is good at this. I get the feeling that his occasion Not Going Along With Yer Nonsense is out of sheer mulishness, not lack of rolling-with-it ability. and I mean, we shouldn’t discount the weeks of his life he spends improving fantasies with Julian in the holosuites.
- anyway I cannot believe this show is real, look at that last sentence
the stubble is not a bad look for Miles, unexpectedly
- apparently I’m fondly amused by grimdark techno-noir, who knew
- I think I’ve just figured something out about myself: believability of plots/devices does not matter to me remotely, but believability of how characters behave in them does. anyway another way of phrasing that probably: I love the sci-fi franchise Star Trek.
