One thing DS9 does extremely well is showing how close the average person is to being a defector. It's not just Gul Dukat waffling over his shit. It's a Vorta lamenting that his species wasn't given a sense of aesthetics by The Founders. It's a Gem Hadar soldier ending a fight before he kills his opponent. And million other little examples. It shows extremely well how the people on any side of a conflict are people and if they just pushed a little more at their doubts how different they would see the world.

And it goes the other way as well. Showing how close average people are to crossing to the wrong side of history. Kira realizing she's making excuses for The Dominion occupation. Odo struggling with where his loyalties lie and his own actions while working for an occupying force. Worf joining the morality police briefly on Riza. And so many more examples.

Such a huge part of why this show has lasting power is that's it's not idealist in the way it treats it's characters actions even though it remains committed to Star Trek optimism.

How many times can the same thing break your heart?

the whole point of a zine is that it's cheap to produce, amateur and homemade. if you're being asked to apply to participate in a print project, it is not a zine. if the final product is being printed and bound professionally, it is not a zine. if you are being asked to enter into any kind of licensing agreement more complex than "my work can be reproduced as part of this publication" it is not a zine. nine times put of ten if the final product costs more than $5 you have left zine country. im so serious about this.

You, a heroic paladin have successfully slain a fearsome dragon. But the dragon warns you that death is but a door, and dragons don’t die, they reincarnate. You paid it no mind….until your son was born with golden, slitted eyes.

I was today years old when I learned that when you type “otp: true” in AO3 search results it filters out fics with additional ships, leaving only the fics where your otp is the main ship
