DS9 2x16 Shadow Play thoughts (rewatching, so possible future spoilers)
I really like jadzia being a gossip? Idk I guess I'm just a slut for consistent characterisation and character flaws. Also just seeing Jadzia in general
Is this the hologram episode?
Kira taking over security is WONDERFUL. I love how she deals with Quark
Sisko calling Jake "Mr Sisko" <3 and Jake being happy to have the badge
Julian's so excited! To spy! XD I have a feeling we don't actually get to see this though...
Kira disbelieving laugh at Julian's comment: "Garak has been lecturing me on surveillance techniques. This will give me a chance to try some of them out."
I'm glad Kira is happy to see Bareil, but WHY?! He is just so, so dry
I think it's super interesting that several people throughout the series so far have said changelings are make-believe. I can't remember if there's anything made of this later when we know more about them.
Taya is really very sweet
I do like seeing the different religious views, with Kira being more traditionalist and frustrated with his newer teachings
Okay, the springball thing is actually pretty cute
I really love this kid and Odo is very cute with her, this whole interaction has my heart:
TAYA: And then the great Minra said to the evil changeling, 'maybe you can turn into a mountain, or a ghergher beast, or a tornado, but those are big things and big things are easy. I bet you can't turn into something small, like a loaf of greenbread.' And so the changeling said 'Yes I can.' and he did, and do you know what happened? ODO: The great Minra gobbled him up. TAYA: How'd you know that? ODO: The changeling in your story wasn't very smart. TAYA: Could you turn into a loaf of greenbread? ODO: I suppose I could. TAYA: Show me. ODO: And let you gobble me up? I don't think so.
That was my favourite cloak! His outrage! I love this random guy
I knew it would turn to Kira leaving Bareil to deal with Quark once gambling was mentioned
Taya really is the sweetest little thing
"Because I love her", oh grandad. This is very cute and good feels.
This episode is nice :) I like a happy ending. More Julian spy content needed. (I know I'm biased. I always think more Julian is needed. But wouldn't you like to see him skulking around pretending to be Garak? Or Kira admonishing him later for not keeping a closer eye on Quark?)
