i don’t know how to insert a readmore in mobile so you’re going to have to deal with this post. bear with me. i don’t understand why ds9 fandom casts garak as some sort of suave oscar wilde daddy dom when he’s clearly the kind of older man who gets trashed at a casino at 3pm on thursdays and tips dabo boys extra to hold him while he cries
the first thing we ever see him do is beeline over to the very shiniest twink from a nation comprised solely of shiny twinks (while he’s fucked up on space oxy btw) like “hey, i usually don’t approach people from space grindr in crowded public places before noon like this, but i haven’t had sex in nine years, so hmu if you ever want to…. ‘visit my tailoring shop’……… as they say.” he’s not that smooth.
imo that’s the very thing that makes g/b so great. like while garak IS technically a dangerous feminine powerful enemy spy, which as we all know is julian bashir’s charmingly bisexual fetish, even when bashir runs into ops for the first time like “I THINK GARAK IS A SPY AND WE CAN LEARN ALL MANNER OF SPY SECRETS FROM HIM” jadzia is immediately like “bro maybe but i’m pretty sure he mostly just wants to s your d.” and it’s actually incredibly magical that it even works!! ONLY fucking julian “teach for america” bashir would look at this portly middle-aged disaster of lizard man like “holy shit, i finally found my very own bond girl, holy shit, my dream.“ i honestly honestly just don’t think people understand the central themes of star trek: deep space nine at all
“the only issue I have with The Best Post in the World is that Oscar Wilde, while suave, was also the type of older man to get trashed in a casino at 3pm on a Thursday and pay a young man to hold him while he cried”- me
I’m going through my own ds9 tag because its gold and god, its a fuckin’ tragedy that OP deactivated, because they were a visionary
changed my url but im still here and my posts are worse than ever b4
I love this early DS9 cast photo: taken with flash, nobody looking in the same direction, some definitely uncertain a photo was even being taken, looking 100% like a photo your parents took of you before prom
there are FIVE eyes looking at the camera out of a possible sixteen
our house has four fridge poetry sets: erotic fridge poetry (gift from my mother), star trek fridge poetry (I bought it on etsy), aphorism fridge poetry (gift from @swordfern’s mother), and s*pernatural fridge poetry (swordfern bought it). @pirisquills has not yet contributed a weird set, but has authored many delightful dirty refrigerator poems for us to enjoy.
must a sport be entertaining to watch?
