This Jem’Hadar is talking to Sisko like “You should have killed [Worf] for disobeying your orders,” and I really think Sisko should’ve been like “Listen, custard fucker, you glorified meat cannonballs may be able to grow your babies in test tubes and have them fighting in three days, but our fuckin childhood is EIGHTEEN FUCKING YEARS long. We’re children longer than most of your people live, so I’m not about to twist a dude’s head off for getting into fisticuffs with a gnarly fucking Predator/dragon hybrid ninja like your crusty-ass selves, so I suggest you go back to shooting Founder semen into your necks and back the fuck off.”
I love how the DS9 tag is something like:
"love for Garak" "episode reviews" Garak garak, "OMG HOW DID I MISS THIS SHOW!" Garak. Kira! Kira!
SOCCER! WTF?
Garak, Odo, FEELS!…
I know I know but jfc. If I ran into Alexander Siddig I hope I wouldn’t accidentally be like GAIUS because he would not appreciate that.
Illogical
I want to know what happens on DS9 when the most important members of the crew are aboard the Defiant. I mean, even the doctor, chief engineer and chief of security tag along on Defiant missions for no apparent reason. Bashir’s at the controls (?) and Odo just stands there saying, “Captain, all commination signals are standing by." Couldn’t some unknown Ensign have said that as well as our dear constable?
Meanwhile, each time the Defiant departs DS9 Ops threatens to blow up, sickbay becomes overrun with patients, and Quark gains so much profit from illegal sales the FCA has to investigate him.
Okay, wait, so the season 6 episode order goes:
Waltz
Who Mourns for Morn
Far Beyond The Stars
One Little Ship
That is some weapons-grade whiplash there.
‘Doctor Bashir is with Chief O’Brien. He should return at fifteen hundred hours. Unless it’s an emergency.’
I assured Nurse Jabara that it wasn’t, nodded my thanks, and walked back out to the Promenade. I stood there for a moment, trying to deny that I was upset. This was the umpteenth time I had come to invite the doctor to lunch, only to find that he was already engaged with the Chief. Playing darts. Building models of old wars. Battling ancient enemies in ancient flying machines in some holographic fantasy. Or the latest diversion, listening to the insipid ‘lounge’ music at Vic Fontaine’s. Child’s games. That’s it, I decided, if he wants to have lunch he can damn well ask me.
A Bajoran lout nearly knocked me into the perfume display and continued on his way without so much as a glance back. I controlled my temper and followed him. The Promenade was crowded, and I quietly negotiated the crowd until I made my way directly behind him. I slipped my left foot between his two legs, hooked his right ankle and pushed him hard in the small of his sweaty back with my left hand. He went down like a demolished building, taking two or three innocent pedestrians with him, and I peeled off to Quark’s bar. […]
I sat down at the end of the bar instead of going to my usual place on the second level. I wasn’t sure how long I wanted to stay; I just had to get out of the crowd and a grip on my feelings. I was in a dangerous mood. Ever since that ridiculous holosuite program, I thought. The spy game. Well, of course it’s a game. It’s all a game. But it’s not a holosuite program. And yet, the moment Julian wounded me with his ridiculous weapon, everything changed. I thought it was a magnificent moment. He showed me that he had the spine to play the game as it ought to be played. But why then did he back off? Why couldn’t he go beyond that moment? Why did our relationship end?
oh my god sorry for the wall of text but i’m reading a stitch in time (the ds9 novel that andrew robinson wrote about garak) and it’s fucking incredible. garak (a) got upset that bashir blew him off for o’brien, so he (b) went and tripped some random asshole in the promenade and ran away, then © sat at the bar and fretted about why bashir doesn’t love him anymore. this is the best thing that’s ever happened to me (via skinchanging)
sometimes when i’m driving and my GPS gives me bad directions and i yell at it
i pretend i’m tony stark
one of the things about having an ‘invisible disorder’ is that most of the time it takes an enormous amount of mental energy to keep it that way
