have I talked before about how Dax/Dax is the best selfcest ship there is, Accept No Substitutes
Dax and Iliana Ghemor, morphed together, mainly because I wanted to see Dax in scales. Yum.
Somewhere, Bashir just had a very unsettling feeling wash over him
The notion of Garak/Jadzia was brought up today, and though I am rarely of use in any practical way, I do have a freakish ability to recall Things I Know About Deep Space Nine, backed up by a truly alarming collection of materials I’ve acquired over the years.
As such I could vaguely remember Andy saying that he’d worked a bit of subtext into a scene in Civil Defense, wherein Garak suddenly became passionately interested in Jadzia. Couldn’t for the life of me remember where I’d read it, but after a bit of digging through the magazine cabinet I found the 1995 issue of Starbase Magazine featuring the quote and interview in question.
Sooo I scanned the pages, slapped ‘em on my Spock-shaped flash drive (oh god, what is my life) and here they are in hopefully legible format (the relevant quote is on page 2);
Page 3 came out hilariously crooked because it was TBC on the last page of the magazine; there is no longer a back cover because the back cover was a big picture of Garak, and myself at 13 apparently looked at this and said “Well ok, then,” cut it off and tacked it to the wall…it has been there since 1995. A forest of other images has grown up and died around it, but Garak there remains, as does Special Poster Insert!Odo.
I’d imagine one day they will both be tacked to the nursing home wall along with Weyoun, Martok, the ensemble cast poster, and Shran.
Anyway - it wouldn’t surprise me if I’ve got nowhere near the knowledge to successfully resize these things to a point between illegible and enormous, so if anyone has trouble please do feel free to talk me through all the ways I’ve gone horribly wrong. : )
Here’s the bit in question isolated, just in case;
If you recall in Civil Defense, where Dax said something and Garak replied “What a CREATIVE suggestion,” that was Andy trying to subtext in the beginning of a crush on Jadzia. But, he said, the writers never took the bait.
Ooooh, I’m going to have to hunt that up now~!

Summary:At Ezri’s zhian'tara, she is most nervous about meeting the most recent former host of the Dax symbiont.
Ow. Ow, ow, ow.
So in the episode of Deep Space Nine I watched last night we learned that Curzon was in love with Jadzia. But she had his memories, so how did she not know that?
He said he was trying to hide it but didn’t she have all of those memories, whether suppressed or not?
All...
Always wanted to hear what Dax would say if you could just talk to it as Dax.
What must it be like to be the Trill who hosts a virgin symbiont? Is it the booby prize? Or a tremendous honour?
Looking for par’Mach in All the Wrong Places: an episode where Dr.Bashir suddenly needs brain-bleach.
