got him off-balance!

#my art #ds9 #star trek deep space nine #julian bashir #elim garak #garashir #watercolor #image desc in alt text #i normally post on mondays but. today im breaking my pattern! getting a little silly. getting a little wild. garashir jumpscare #“tumblr user chitinleg garak would neot easily let himself be swooped off his feet into a hug like that” yes i know BUT!#look at his expression. look at how his arms r pinned. he didnt let this happen LMAO julian just surprised him. grabby huggy human behavior #if you look really closely you can see the tiniest frown in the world on Garak's face. because he's like “EEP !”#cant see bashirs face at all in this only his body but i think we can all imagine that whatevers going thru his head. he needs this hug bad #ALSO. for anyone wondering what the fucked up shadow is that starts at the juncture of the teal sleeve-cap where its set into the armhole #the jumpsuits have a bit of a fold of extra fabric (called an Action Pleat) there which allows for a little more maneuverability of the bod #AND creates a really sleek and flat back panel #because you can see the fabric twists along the side arent grabbing the flat back fabric theyre grabbing the fabric folded beneath it #often times i think about drawing out a dissection of kiras first uniform and this voy era one for other artists to use. bc god knows #i struggled at first to find full body references #they like to shoot ds9 very close to peoples heads. and the camera is so blurry. they smeared butter on that thing. god bless

the cardassian 'arguments as flirting' thing makes a whole lot of sense to me the more I think about it honestly. finding someone you not only feel safe to disagree with but can completely enjoy the company of even while you disagree seems as good a metric for chosing a life partner as any haha

#you owe your compliance to the state not to your spouse sort of cultural ideal I guess lol #built in test for how good you'll handle conflicts together during the courtship! I can sort of see the logic #star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #a cultural tendency towards tsundere nonsense. imagine #cardassians #quick someone hand garak a copy of much ado about nothing I want to know what he'd think

I rewatched Past Prologue and still can’t get over how gay it is. How did Rick Berman read “I’m at your disposal”, “interesting new friend” and “enhance my evening” and nothing flagged? Also Bashir’s “this relationship has gotten a little out of hand” was insane. Relationship? After knowing him less than a day? Is the word ‘acquaintance’ not in your vocabulary? Are you kidding me Bashir?

#star trek #star trek ds9 #elim garak #julian bashir #garashir #i’ve tried to imagine garak’s lines performed any other way and i can’t. they’re just too gay.

Un-augmented Julian Bashir who programs a special button on his AAC device just for talking to Garak. It makes a loud incorrect buzzer noise.

#I am once again thinking about Him (un-augmented!Julian my beloved)#Unfortunately Garak LOVES the buzzer. It's like a Pavlovian bell to him. The opposite of a deterrent.#garashir #Julian Bashir #Star Trek: Deep Space 9 #obviously the AAC devices of the 23rd century will be far more advanced than this but perhaps they still include buttons/typing as a backup #in case there's an issue with the tech that translates ur thoughts directly to words (I picture it working via a device #that looks like a modern-day hearing aid; it wirelessly syncs with UTs of course)#also the devices will surely be able to recite the words in your own voice (or any voice you choose)#but it IS funny to imagine the Majel Barrett computer voice flatly declaring ''Garak That Is The Most Ridiculous Lie I've Ever Heard''#Starky's text posts #Starky's original posts #oh uhhhh #autism

I love ds9 but everyday I die a little bc they didn't gave Cardassians reptilian tails. I need to see Garak slapping ppl with his tail and pushing stuff off the tables like a cat and then act like it was an accident

#elim garak #garak #cardassians #deep space nine #ds9 #star trek ds9 #star trek #imagine garak stepping on dukat tail #such a missed opportunity

murder on the road

#i was in oslo a month ago and i got to see a lot of my fav munch paintings #this one is quite obviously a redraw (in my style) of murder on the road by munch #elim garak #garak #ds9 #deep space nine #star trek #my art #tried to imagine a cardassian landscape that would've been similar to the original painting #messed around with different brushes and i honestly don't know what to think

Someone remind me when I’m on my deathbed that I want my last words to be, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to have lunch with you today,” to whoever happens to be there

#pithy silly and bittersweet #the perfect last words for a weirdo #imagination Garak dies the way he he lived #being a silly bitch #Garak suppresses his emotions like it’s going out of style #because it is #ds9 #elim garak #star trek ds9 #garak #garashir #ds9 garak #julian bashir #the search

Garashir but it doesn't work because Julian's in love/lust with the idea that Garak will treat him like an enemy spy and Garak's in love/lust with the idea that Julian will treat him as gently as a patient and neither of them actually want to bring their jobs into bed/a relationship.

Because I love these two but I also enjoy the idea that they could be in love with the other's public persona, but actually that which attracts the other to them is what they want to relinquish in private.

#Star-crossed Garashir #Julian Bashir #Elim Garak #Idk if I've worded it quite like I'm imagining #But I hope it makes sense #my trek musings #Wsb

If it’s not too much to ask…could we get a garashir grand babbe roll call

GARASHIR GRAND BABBEES!

NO GENETIC RELATION TO EITHER OF THEM. BUT THEY'RE GARAK-BASHIRS IN THEIR HEARTS!

Lim and his wife have like.. 5 or 6 kids...... on purpose........ there are many family running jokes about it with varying levels of crudeness. They just want a big family... If everyone was like them the planet would regain its prewar population in a few scant generations. Besides, Lim is a stay-at-home dad and house manager, so there's someone to wrangle them all full-time.

Jocasta eventually gets married at the spinsterish age of 30 and has a reasonable amount of children. There's such a dearth of young Cardassian men after the war that nobody thought it was too unusual that she took that long, but still, societal expectations and whatnot. Garak is heartbroken when she moves out (last one to leave the nest.) He visits a lot especially after he retires.

Idk if Idan has kids! Probably eventually. He's a student though, he's got too much to do right now.

But he is a favorite uncle!

Also idk if Iskra and Rulada have kids haha I don't know if they're the 2.5 WPF type... but very funny to imagine their Klingon/Cardassian hybrid. WHAT kind of chaotic mommy energy is Iskra going to bring to this endeavor

#dee s 9 #garashir adoption au #ME DRAWING LIZARD BABY AFTER LIZARD BABY YEEEEEES HAHAHA! YEEEEES SICKO FACE!!!!#omg i didnt draw julian in a pile of grandbabies. need to #hes a busy man later in life he's like Cardassia's Doctor/pet alien celebrity #garak's retired and trying to enjoy obsolescence and julian's still pulling 80 hr workweeks #garaks enjoying his oldmancore lifestyle. like tain but you know with a family that actually loves him and a legacy worth being proud of #you knowwwww garak is just bonkers about the idea of having a big family. being a Patriarch. being the lynchpin of a big community #he was FAMILYSTARVED and now he is being FAMILYFED!#klingon cardassian babies would be so ugleeeee omg can you imagine #bashir removing iskras test tube baby from the amniotic goop tube: hes beautiful...#iskra: no he for real is not hes so ugly but thank you :')#thank you for giving me a venue to talk about lizard ocs...

I love gilora so much and it's a shame she's a one episode wonder in destiny. 'chief o'brien I would never neg you for being a human! goodness, can you imagine. I'm negging you for being a man in STEM'

she's such a funny window into a side of cardassian culture we haven't been allowed to peek into before this. 'I'm here to do science eat alien food and more importantly eat alien p -- ' *ulani hurriedly claps a hand over her mouth to avoid a diplomatic Incident*

#star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #she came to this station to fuckboy it up and Lounge and by god I support her so much fhsdkdsa #also obviously the garashir implications it immediately invites. good stuff all around #I adore the cardassian scientists in this ep #also I just imagine the obisdian order agent and garak meeting each other's eyes accidentally on the promenade and being like #'O_O okay. but that is frankly none of my business' at each other. see entek a little bit of obsidian order solidarity goes a long way

On the one hand i think star trek not really having an internet equivalent is cool cos it shiws we developed an entire new and possibly better system, similar to how holosuites replaced film and tv, and it slso lets me speculate about whether internet connection as we know it works in deep space or 9ver long interstellar distances (idk how the internet works so i get to just imagine). But on the other hand it would be funny if data was a twitch streamer.

#star trek #ds9 #like done well it has such funny implications #like those people who make star trek character tweets #or garak and bashir beefing it out on goodreads #i think odo would have face book #but also i love the soace retro vibe if 90s trek and i feel like if i watch the newer stuff and someobes got like #a deeply misunderstood version of Instagram #like omg this videos getting millions of hits #i won't like it #i think they should have internet but weird like something to fo with subspace frequencies #i like to imagine little starship kids with a subspace transmitter just going thru unsecured channels #like the equivalent of 13 year olds going on omegle #tng

"No one returns from exile, ever. My country was no more, neither were the people the same people, nor I, Augusto."

-Augusto Boal, 2001

#yes i'm posting this because of garak i have a problem #but also! everyone is so enamored of boal and to #and yet no one ever told me the man was tortured by his state #no one ever talked about what it meant that so much of his work was developed in literal exile #and of course i'm thinking about it in conversation with the ilya kaminsky quote #the country i left no longer exists except perhaps in my imagination #something about: those exiled become the record-keepers #holders of memory #the nation moves beyond them and the people left behind change with the country #but it is preserved as it was in that moment in time in the minds of /as perceived by those it cast out #and so okay yes fucking fine garak #as the memory keeper in exile #of a cardassia that existed only in the moment of his exile

During "In Purgatory's Shadow"

Garak: Like I said, lying is a skill. One that Starfleet sadly neglects to ensure its officers have command of.

Worf: There is rarely any honour in lying

Garak: Well there's a Starfleet and/or Klingon viewpoint if ever I heard one. You know when I think about it, I don't think many of the Starfleet contingent on the station would pass the muster when it comes to lying.

Worf, sighing: We have no need of it

Garak: Nonsense. And I believe that Captain Sisko may prove to be an adept liar if the circumstances demanded it. The same goes for Chief O'Brien - he's quite the pragmatist so he'd at least keep an open mind.

Garak: Then there's you and Dax. Both utterly useless at lying, I mean you won't lie and Jadzia? Well I mean she's incapable of keeping her mouth shut for more than a-

Worf, glaring:

Garak: Anyway…moving on. I think the worst would have to be the good doctor. I mean, as you know, I am rather fond of him, but I don't believe that man would be capable of lying if his life depended on it!

Worf, irritated: If you say so…

After "Doctor Bashir, I Presume"

Garak: I'm not talking to you Julian

Julian: ...Someone told you, didn't they

Garak: Yes

Julian: I'm sorry you had to hear about it from someone else, and I'm sorry I couldn't talk to you about it. But your friendship means a lot to me. Please give us a chance to move past this.

Garak: It's not that simple, my genetically enhanced friend.

Julian: Can I please ask you why?

Garak, upset: You made me look like an ass in front of Worf!

Julian: ???

#garak #elim garak #julian bashir #worf #imagine garak's shock and surprise when he realised julian was an even better liar than he was #star trek #ds9 #deep space nine

Pythas Lok, before and after the Fire

#researching his injury has been soooo fascinating. medicine is so fucking cool u guys. if a little bit viscerally horrifying #I imagine that eventually he grows to trust parmak enough to let them do some secondary reconstructive surgery to fix the scar contractures #but depicted is all nal's handiwork. absolutely miraculous considering her complete lack of medical training #narcissus's echoes #narcissus draws #pythasposting #asit #a stitch in time #star trek fanart #pythas lok #eight lubak #ds9 #cardassians #elim garak

theres a scenario in my head where Julian gets abducted (again) but this time Martok, Jadzia, and Worf team up and go get him because I think that would be very fun

#star trek: ds9 #julian bashir #martok #jadzia dax #worf #ive read my fair share of 'Julian gets abducted and Garak rescues him' fics and also the. actual fucking comic #shoutout to THAT btw #but have we as a fandom considered Martok going apeshit because someone stole his favourite doctor #Jadzia also going apeshit because they took her friend #and Worf gets dragged along because theyre going so so is he #imagine being the people who are holding Julian captive and these three break down ur door #they get back to the station before anybody put together what they were doing #Sisko: alright ive contacted Starfleet theyre sending a team to-#cut to the gang standing there all roughed up #Martok is cradling Julian in his arms #Sisko: ah #Worf: we have acquired the doctor. sir #I will probably end up writing this
