starfleet ds9 crew: we only have two morally compromising options before us here... what we need is a third option
the third option:
he's like if the trolley problem could be solved by a mentally unwell gay lizard jumping onto the trolley and blowing up the track before it got to the junction where the switch could theoretically happen
I'm surprised that I haven't come across anyone else talking about how fascinating it is that Julian Bashir and his father do not have the same English accent. Like, the implications, y'all.
Julian sounds much more upper class than his father, which would seem to indicate one of two things, either:
a) Julian adopted his accent to deliberately distance himself from his father.
or
b) Julian learnt his accent at a young age at the insistence of his father to further his air of sophistication.
Either way, it certainly adds another facet to Julian's Parental Angst.
I love how Odo is a shapeshifter who can look like pretty much Anything he wants. and he chooses to be entirely beige. every day he gets out of his bucket and makes a conscious decision to be a 100% beige man. I love that for him.
wait how does Odo speak? like humanoids and animals and stuff have vocal chords in order to speak, but Odo's just goop pretending to be humanoid, and im pretty sure he's just fully liquid inside... so what is he using to talk?
do shapeshifters just have the ability to talk/make sounds even as goop? or does he have to create a separate little voice box for him to be able to speak? how is he creating the sound??
like i understand that he doesn't really need eyes to see and stuff (they're sort of just for looks, aren't they? he doesn't actually need a face or anything. it's just to look more humanoid), so is it sort of just like that?
how do shapeshifter's senses work???? how is he talking?????
