intro post! 𖦹

hello! I’ve finally got round to looking through my archive and rediscovering everything that’s on this mess of a blog, so here’s a (somewhat) comprehensive overview!

#sakaar yaps #my art #sakaar edits

indescribably obsessed with the julian bashir/victor frankenstein parallels because you just know if julian read frankenstein post-augment discovery (likely, considering what we know of his literature knowledge) he’d completely latch onto the creature - someone created through unnatural means against their will who is hated by society for being the way his parent made him… sound familiar? - and hate victor, and yet there’s so much about victor that finds a kind of distorted reflection in julian, most obviously his near unnatural level of power over life and death as explicitly explored in Life Support, and the numerous times where, coerced or not, julian uses this power for dubious means.

#i think this can relate to internalised ableism on julian’s parthis ambition/huge capacity for care often stretching #and his ambition/compassion’s tendency to stretch his moral boundaries when it comes to medicine #AND how frankenstein is much more complex than clear cut hero/villain #(even if you consider victor the villain)#this has been: more reasons why bashir is My Favourite #ds9 #deep space nine #julian bashir

unfortunately my story needs a middle. i personally think this is excessive

fantashic

Average Deep Space Nine A plot: "What are you willing to sacrifice for the chance at a better world? Who are you willing to hurt? Will the pain you cause now outweigh the peace that it might bring? When both choices are bad, and you do what you think is best, can you live with yourself after? Could you live with yourself if you made the opposite choice?"

Average Deep Space Nine B plot: "What do we do with all this hot sauce!?"

And sometimes, with DS9, the A plot is about the hot sauce and the B plot is about the moral complexities, and I love it either way round.

#did you mean: Life Support #ds9

obsessed with whatever dodgy backroom extreme cosplay gig julian’s got going on. sure it vaguely makes sense that they’d go to a doctor to forcefemme quark (as much as that episode can make sense which i fear isn’t all that much) but i’m still hung up on him being in charge of disguising everyone as klingons in Apocalypse Rising. okay mr CMO who specialised in paediatrics why the fuck are you able to do this

#it’s one thing to have the medical team have this capability #yes i get it future advanced etc etc #but it’s always the same fucking guy #and ignoring obvious explanation of ‘he’s the one who’s a main cast member’ it’s genuinely hilarious #like can he just do ANY medical-adjacent thing??#enjoying the idea that he just learnt the cosmetic stuff for shits and giggles #and when sisko brings up the undercover mission and asks where they could go to get the procedure #he just goes very quiet #‘doctor. is there something you’d like to share?’#‘well i suppose that icouldmaybepossiblydoit.’#‘…i’m not going to ask.’#ds9 #julian bashir #deep space nine

googling ‘how many episodes of ds9 season [x] is garak in’ is usually not the most heartening experience. season 7, on the other hand… *rubs hands together gleefully*

#‘garak’s been gone for a while i wonder when he’ll OH. the entire rest of the season.’#ds9 #deep space nine #elim garak

the runabout flight back to ds9 after the episode puts them all through some horrific nonsense

redesigned the blog. decided that if julian stole my brain it was about time i stole his face. take that loser

oh also the title is a reference to frankenstein. it’s from chapter 9 when victor refers to ‘the whirlwind passions of my soul’. i’m not a prick just an english student

#and if i am a prick it’s because i earned it not because of a pretentious sounding blog title #frankenstein

redesigned the blog. decided that if julian stole my brain it was about time i stole his face. take that loser

#it’s important to me to make it known that it’s specifically julian from Rejoined #because a) it’s one of the best episodes of star trek ever #and b) he’s being silly and doing magic tricks on quark to make kira laugh #anyway rip ryland grace pfp #your time was short but sweet #ds9 #julian bashir
