Weyoun had left Quark’s an hour in favour of wondering the promenade. Sisko and Dukat were still... arguing? Debating lively? He doubted they’d even notice him taking leave. Their presence had put him off Dabo, which while he enjoyed, knew they didn’t understand his love for the game. 

He caught the tail end of a few discussions, ones about the Dominion/Cardassian alliance on the ships, a few insulting comments about him (but he got those every time he came), and just general discussions. He’d gotten a plate of  gagh out of curiosity, the taste was less important, but he could see why people didn’t like it... it wriggled, and moved unpleasantly. 

He passed by the infirmary again, before coming to a stop in front of the Cardassian’s shop- Garak’s, he remembered Dukat saying once. Weyoun tilted his head, stepping inside. The sounds of the promenade largely dropped off, muffled behind the door of the clothing store. 

The allure of the clothes was strong (not that he could actually register that any of it looked nice, but the mild hope that the sense of aesthetics would click. Since coming to the Alpha Quadrant, that desire had only seemed more prevalent). It was everywhere; clothes, gardens, buildings... everything was built to taste. he reached out, running his fingers down one of the folded shirts on a stand, it had a most interesting feel to it. he reached out for another, the silky purple of the first replaced with a darker, more textured feel.

Suffocate - Hayd

You said stay hereBut I’m running out of airI hope you knowAs I waitI suffocate

Should I chase you down?Or should I keep waitingShould I move on?Or should I keep waiting

Weyoun knows that the Dominion isn’t necessarily perfect. They are the best thing he could imagine, but he saw what they did to the planet with the Blight. ; he could understand a lot of things, and rationalize virtually anything else, but that was… there was nothing that could possible be gained from that in the way that forcing a planet to kneel before them would.

They are Gods, and should we worshipped as such, and he understands that they must have a reason for what they do, but it doesn’t stop him from wishing sometimes that they said more to him. He is but one cog in a wheel, one small person in the shifting glory of the Founders, but it’s hard sometimes to be in the Alpha Quadrant and to know that whatever you do, you are exactly as you are. If he were to make one small mistake, it would be all the matter of one decision and he would be dead, properly, and fully with no more clones. 

The Cardassians fought for power, but they also fought for their people, and for something greater than any individual. The longer Weyoun spends in the Alpha Quadrant, the harder it becomes to keep the unwavering, unquestioning dedication to the Founders. And it wasn’t before, but here there were other influences, and other views, and a world outside the carefully curated Dominion. 

He’ll never say any of it, and he’ll never openly question them, but privately, there’s a small part of him that wishes he could be more.

(kid meme) Weyoun & Dukat

@wordbound​ sent in some children!

Name: Kiras Dukat

Gender: male

General Appearance: Kiras takes more after the Cardassian side of his genetics. He has the same gray skin (though his does have a slightly purple tint to it unlike other Cardassians), and he has ridges and scales, but they’re not as pronounced as they might have been, had he been a full Cardassian. His eyes however, are all Weyoun’s. He has the same not-quite organic blue-purple of the Vorta. 

Personality: Kiras’ existence was only discovered during the Cardassian-Dominion occupation for Terok Nor, and his first few months were spent mostly sequestered away in Dukat’s quarters while they dealt with the shock of learning that they’re genetics had been experimented with, and running the station. That didn’t stop him from exploring the station though, and learning all the small conduits and access panels. He’s a curious child, and an absolute failure as far as the Founders are concerned. He’s smart– studious more so, and when he can, he spends time in the science labs watching and asking questions. (Dukat’s long gone when the war is over, but Kiras– pacifist and hopeful- ends up joining the rebuilding projects on Cardassia, and trying to help Doctor Parmak create a more democratic society).

Special Talents: Kiras inherited a lot of the elements that made Vorta such good diplomats. he has better ears than the average person, and while not immune to most toxins, it takes a little more of them to harm him.

Who they like better: Dukat was the one that was present. Weyoun was on station yes, but he didn’t take an interest in Kiras more than the cursory inquiry. 

Who they take after more: Neither of them really. Weyoun perhaps, he’s the more diplomatic of the two, but Kiras isn’t as sharp-edged, and he’s too hopeful to really be like either of them.

Personal Head canon: Kiras was a prototype engineered by the Founders to be a more successful fighter in the war with the Federation. They took Dukat and Weyoun’s genetics and grew him with the hopes that he would be loyal to the Dominion, but have the advantages offered by being raised in the Alpha Quadrant. he knows he wasn’t wanted, or expected, but that doesn’t stop him from wanting to make his parents proud, or to live up to the legacy of Dukat or his half-sister Ziyal who everyone seemed to love so much.

• BIOGRAPHY •

“Then receive this reward from the Founders. May it keep you strong.“

Loyalty to the Founders, and to the Dominion, was above all things, paramount. Weyoun knew that, and didn’t question it. He was good at his job. Most of the planets he was sent to would bow to the Dominion without military intervention, and for those that didn’t... well, the Jem’Hadar were nothing if not efficient.

The Gamma Quadrant had been all he’d ever known of-- the vast stretching planes between stars that belonged to the Dominion, and the few, single planets that would rebel before being crushed. Then of course, came the wormhole, and the Alpha Quadrant. 

For the first time, there was an actual force that stood against the Dominion in a way that could threaten their expansion, and that couldn’t be stood for. 

Weyoun is the most trusted of the Vorta when it comes to diplomatic missions. When the Dominion declared war on the Federation, he was the one put in charge of Terok Nor, and when they are driven back to Cardassia Prime, it is him to be the official representation for the Founders. It’s a great honour (so long as he can forget about the things he wishes he could have). 

(Weyoun 6 was defective, and was dealt with as a stain on the otherwise pristine line was meant to be dealt with).

It’s easy enough to push the minor annoyances away with the knowledge that it’s all for the good of the Dominion, and when they win, there won’t be any disappointing temptations.
