AU where bashir serves on the enterprise and crusher is CMO of ds9

Sisko & Crusher have a Solemn Widows Club, Jake has to convince Nog to not trick Wesley out of his allowance CONSTANTLY, and Crusher lobbies for a station counselor before season fucking 7

Meanwhile on the Enterprise, Bashir has a weirdly intense crush on Riker nearly gets killed in the holodeck literally 327 times

keiko wheedling garak into teaching her abt cardassian orchids...please

[adigeon]

good afternoon. i am “””working from home””” today and have decided there’s no way miles stays on earth post-canon, he hangs out there for like three years before he and keiko both get miserable and bored and fuck off to bajor. the bajoran state university is more than happy to take two experienced professors, after all, and keiko had been doing some really interesting research on bajor before the whole Galactic War thing happened

before kira knows it she has an entirely too complicated garden and every mechanical appliance in her house runs better than new. she teaches yoshi bajoran (keiko had been trying but her accent is atrocious, jfc.) please just let them all Rest

thought i had while driving: the cardassians we see in TNG are all incredibly lean/lanky. gul "considers himself real hot shit" dukat is similarly proportioned. garak isn't - he's pretty solidly built for a cardassian we see onscreen

you know who else is almost upsettingly lanky? julian bashir, who is 2/3s leg. please imagine julian and garak as cardassia's most confusing power couple. here's this human who's proportioned like the most perfect symbol of cardassian masculinity, married to a stout older man who is shorter than him. garak finds this hilarious. julian has no idea why particularly willowy cardassians keep staring at him balefully. to the average cardassian eye theyre the cardassian equivalent of one of those sitcom couples where one partner is super hot and the other one is just Aggressively Average and garak never stops being smug about it

it’s.......absurd that garak never wears fur during ds9. he’s dramatic and cold all the time and u can replicate anything, no need to actually kill an animal. wtf

[adigeon]

while doing background research for something i stumbled on an ostensibly bro-y forum where people were discussing whether or not garak and bashir were actually friends during ds9, but where i would have otherwise ostensibly expected some weird “they definitely weren’t a couple!!!” complaining, everyone just cozily shipped miles/bashir instead, which is both weird and fucking hilarious

[adigeon]

when julian bashir actually gets mad he sounds like jareth from the labyrinth when he goes NOTHING? NOTHING TRA-LA-LA? at hoggle

not that this is brought to you(tm) by the thing i just knocked out in one sitting but ezri being an ass to garak post-canon rules and should happen. he was a dick during season 7 and she’s like centuries older than him. once she’s more steady it should just nonstop be her sassing him and him grumpily putting up with it
