odos complex around relationships always gets me as an autistic person. the constant yearning and observing of people he want to be close to. but never actually taking action, because relationships are not for him, hes not humanoid, hes too different, he doesnt need it. but he watches anyway and takes time out of his day to make his schedule follow the people he wants to be around. he'll never admit that he does this, because it would be acknowledging that he wants, or even needs relationships.

not to devastate the quodo crowd but odo promising a place of honor for quarks dessicated remains has me thinking about him leaving the link just to acquire it just as he promised

just standing there in solid form for the first time in decades holding that little disc and thinking about their last goodbye

i think star trek should write an in universe reason why some series don’t have swearing and some do. make it a universal translator glitch or something.

[textsfromstarfleet]

the captain of each ship can turn the swears on or off when they want to

[cumaeansibyl]

Kirk would have kept the swears on but any ship carrying Dr. Leonard McCoy is required by Starfleet regulations to turn them off

Anyone else think the reason ds9 deeply resonates with Queer people is because, at its Heart, its about a third space created but a group of patriotic people fundamentally alienated from their own people. Like obviously garak and quark but consider how were told in the first episode that Kira has been sent there to get her "out of the way" of the civilian government, how the things shes needed to do to both survive and secure their freedom seem deeply uncomfortable to all the civilian leaders. Dax considering both Joran and her eagerness towards reassociation make her basically a non entity on Trill. Bashir takes a while but the augment reveal puts him firmly in this Category. Obriens difficulty with his ptsd and moving passed personal préjudices puts him at odds with a lot of federation ideals. Siskos deep trauma around the loss of his wife and inability to move pass this, makes him very inconvenient to a federation desperate to pass itself off as a Utopia. He then becomes more and more unacceptable as he leans further into his role as in emissary, with the federation seemingly very uncomfortable with this religious expression. Jesus, Worf begins his tenure by getting himself exiled from klingon space.

Like idk, I dont think its all that shocking a Bunch of Queer people most liked the show about having a complicated relationship with your culture and never being allowed to go home.

this is how the show went right
