People Joke About DS9 A And B Plots But This Cut Was Bonkers

getting all dressed up (totally not just for the mall cop that visits him multiple times a day, every day. that's just a coincidence)

Sooooo guess who started watching Deep Space Nine…

I’m so mentally sane about them, guys.

rip to this kira from something nsft i'm probably never going to finish

anyway garak canonically calls julian “darling” and “my love” let’s all think about that

Niners ⚾️🌌

if your girl looks at you with surprise and delight as you transform from a bird back to a human (ish) shape and you regale her with how it felt to fly, that’s not your girlfriend. that’s odo’s girlfriend

EXPLAIN THIS IMAGE? WHAT? WELL - I think baby harnesses are hilarious. AND ADORABLE? BUT MOSTLY HILARIOUS. 

also as previously explained I like the idea of Odo being a super gung-ho dad. Odo brings this baby around EVERYWHERE. It makes everyone kind of uncomfortable. What do you want me to do, leave it playing around the bizarre vaguely sexual jungle gym that occupies most of my room??? HMPH

Quark is wondering if the baby harness is a harness or an extension of Odo’s terrifying goobody. Quark is wondering if the baby is A PLOY TO RUIN HIM FINANCIALLY. 

and Morn’s there because I just realized I’ve never bothered drawing him before. WHICH IS CRIMINAL, BECAUSE MORN IS FUN TO DRAW

i love you and your ridiculous puffy musclesuit, Morn

Julian Bashir meeting an alternate universe version of himself who still goes by Jules. Jules doesn't fake eye contact as well as Julian. When he speaks, it's mostly in short direct sentences, as few words and as to the point as possible. He can still ramble for an hour on a topic he's passionate about though.

Julian realising in slow horror that Jules is also a doctor. Jules also works for Starfleet. Jules is also stationed on DS9. Jules is friends with his own Garak, who thinks he is delightful and intelligent and interesting. Jules is still friends with a Miles O'Brien who thinks he is a little weird and off putting but will fist fight anyone who talks bad about him. They still play darts and racquetball, though Jules isn't quite as good, he and Miles still treat each other as friendly rivals.

Jules, who is still a diligent and dedicated professional, who takes pride in his work as a doctor, and whose parents were arrested and charged before he ever set foot on Adigeon Prime. Jules, who mended Kukalaka and continued to stitch him up for years to come just like Julian.

The slowly dawning horror Julian has at realising that this is who he might have been, and that Jules is, in fact, fine. He wasn't top of his class, but he's still a damn good doctor. He can't work for three days straight without sleeping, but he's no less dedicated. He's not as physically adept, but he's doing fine. He's loved. He's fulfilled. He's happy.

Julian Bashir isn't sure how any of that is making him feel about himself at all, nor does he know why he finds himself crying himself to sleep that night.

Before I started watching DS9, I had read several bad things about Keiko, and I wondered what might make her character so disliked. Turns out it was just being a woman in a misogynistic world xddd

If you ask me, the problem with Keiko is we don't get enough Keiko.
