Alcoholic drinks I think the DS9 cast would like:
Sisko: he’d like a good whiskey drink, probably an old fashioned
Jadzia: she’d crush Margaritas down at the replimat
Kira: hard seltzers (she could fuck up a white claw) or sangria
Bashir: gin and tonic or the occasional light beer
O’Brien: almost exclusively beer. Always orders a classic Guinness
Odo: Jack and Coke or a generic beer
Quark: he drinks pornstar martinis or vodka cranberries like the whore he is
Garak: absinthe or everclear. Absolutely insane liquor choices
What does everyone think is their best hot take about Star Trek? One that you think more people should agree with, I mean.
For me personally, my hot take is that the first few seasons of DS9 were actually pretty good.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the dark and intertwining story lines of the later seasons, and I do think a lot of the characters (e.g, Dr Bashir and Jadzia Dax) we’re not that great of a character and lacked likeable traits and fleshed out personalities, but I mostly say this because of the story lines.
The thing is, I also really like the first 2 seasons on TNG as well. I love a good story line that doesn’t really mean anything, and the characters are just goofing off. Of course, it’s better that DS9 didn’t stay like that, but I deeply enjoy watching them doing useless shenanigans like Odo trying to direct an ostrich off stage, or everyone saying random words for 40 minutes because of some illness, or the fact that almost every episode had a moment between Quark and Odo, I honestly really enjoyed these stories.
There’s also some stuff I miss as well, like I feel that Garak should’ve had more episodes where he was still on the drug, or that were less episodes that were just Odo falling in love Kira but not being able to be with her (because the writers hate him I guess) as I honestly was never interested in the storyline.
Not to say that there isn’t goofy more silly episodes as the show goes on (who doesn’t love a good ferengi episode), but I do appreciate the series where there was no real danger, and you could just sit back and relax until the show started to actually get going. What do you think?
THIS IS SO SILLY I LOVE ITTTT. THE HAIR BRAIDING EXISTS :333
[EDIT: deleted scene from Vision Awry.]
“Ugh,” the trill huffed in frustration. “You need to grow your hair longer, Julian, this is impossible.”
Miles laughed, and he wasn’t the only one -- Kira was chuckling at the scene, and Julian was too, shaking his head in response. “That’s not going to happen,” he told her.
“Don’t move your head,” she ordered. “Maybe if I try this…”
“You’ll never get it like that, old man,” said Sisko, earning himself a glare from Dax.
“You think you could do better?” she challenged. From the look on the commander’s face, Miles wouldn’t have bet against the man.
“I could certainly try,” replied the commander. “If, of course, you don’t mind, Doctor?”
Miles did not know what his response would be if Sisko ever offered to braid his hair, but he imagined there would be a lot of stammering and turning red involved. Julian, of course, was a completely different breed of man.
“If you’re going to braid my hair, sir, you should probably call me Julian,” his friend responded, and Miles felt his cheeks growing pink on Julian’s behalf, because casual dinner or not, that was not how you spoke to your commanding officer.

Garak: why does everyone in this station trust me? I was one of the most feared spies back in my day!
