another garashir cuddle. wow! and it’s… for you!

[subspaceshenanigans]

I don't know if I smiled more at the line 'Don't first-name me, Doctor, unless you mean it,' or 'You may be the only partner I've ever considered, Julian.'

Oh, my heart. My poor heart.

”As his Doctor?” Nerys repeated, flatly. “You’re going to tell me that your feelings about this situation are limited to the professional ones?”

i know it was ultimately just a plot contrivance created to allow ds9 to dig quickly and deeply into julian’s past, but the fact that dr. zimmerman set out to create a long-term relationship doctor dating sim medical hologram that would be able to effortlessly and pleasantly interact with all sorts of people and starfleet medical pointed him specifically in the direction of julian bashir is hilarious to me for multiple reasons

[jvlianbashir]

like where do i even start

1) i full on choose to believe they picked him because he was pretty first and because he’s an extremely gifted doctor second

2) anyone who has ever met julian would tell you that he’s an acquired taste

3) zimmerman says that part of the lmh’s concept is that it is meant for scenarios where the doctor would never leave sickbay, yet his model is a man that wilts like a fussy orchid if deprived for even 5 minutes of social interaction or the ability to run to the bridge/ops to partake in the daily gossip

I literally automatically assumed it’s because he’s pretty. Like I didn’t even think about it, I was just like, “Oh yeah, that makes sense, look at the guy.”

[ierectthespineofcardassia]

Well, he DID almost get the Carrington award, plus he wrote several very important papers and is likely the most experienced Starfleet doctor when it comes to Gamma Quadrant species/disease, so I really would not understate the possibility that his credentials played a BIG role. But yeah… he’s so pretty. I bet he is featured regularly on the centerfold of each and every Starfleet Medical magazine. He even probably has several pin-up photo calendars featuring exclusively him… and he does not know about it. (Garak bought 50 copies. Because of reasons.)

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

Garak looked at him, and Julian could almost see him trying to decide what kind of lie to tell.

this caption from memory alpha is killing me. "consider reassociation" is THE funniest way to describe the most passionate kiss in the franchise. they're analyzing the pros and cons. straight up pondering their rapport. weighing various options regular style. iconic

[melorasalive]

Sincere question:

Why does the term service top exist?

Aren't ALL tops Service Tops?

Like if a top isn't a service top doesn't that just make them an asshole?

wait I get it
