Garak was late to lunch that day because he was building a bomb to destroy his shop. He was eating Delavian chocolates while he made it. He saw an assassin and knew for whom the bell tolled, but he still ate his chocolates, and he still went to lunch, just a little late. Because he was making a bomb to blow himself up with.

[cucumbermoon]

Just to reiterate, Garak’s to-do list that day looked like this:

1. Make bomb

2. Lunch with Dr. Bashir ❤️

3. Explode

[cucumbermoon]

I’m reblogging my own post again because I just remembered that Garak WASN’T HUNGRY. He went to lunch but he didn’t eat anything, because he filled up on chocolates while making his bomb. He also risked his life to go to lunch. There was an assassin loose on the Promenade and he wasn’t hungry. You know every second counted because he blew himself up the exact instant that he walked into his shop. He literally only went to lunch at all so that he could tell Julian how much he hated Julius Caesar.

I…. I can’t get this out of my head. I think I have to write a fic about it.

[knivesandteeth]

.... Maybe he just said he wasn't Hungry because he was worried about being poisoned ?

[hartlins]

Valid point but still. Someone was trying to murder him and he was like yes, yes, we'll get to that but first I gotta go destroy my crush in a literary debate over lunch.

Absolute diva. 💅

[knivesandteeth]

I dont even think he wants to win the debate, hé just likes getting Julian hot and bothered

[yourfaveisintersex]

what if I just made my profile picture a male calico cat or something. hurm

[icewingassasin]

Could I suggest a picture of Dawntreader Texas Calboy? He is a beautiful male calico cat who is a chimera. He's also somewhat controversial among some cat fancy associations since he is a male cat with female colors, and some people are strangely transphobic towards him, despite him being a cat? There was even a rule implemented to keep him from competing in a cat show. If you look up his name, he made a few news articles.

[yourfaveisintersex]

Oh my god?????

Yeah you're right about beautiful I'm squeezing him until he pops!!!!! I love this guy I think I'm going to make an edit real quickly Calboy I love you I'm so sorry people are calling you a freak??????

Cosplayers at a Star Trek Convention, 1976

[foone]

in this house we have endless respect for cosplayers from the days before VCRs.

You couldn’t just rewatch the episode to look at all the details of the costume. You got lucky with press photos showing up in magazines or you just watched the episode/movie while sketching furiously

[silencedrowns]

thinking about that one woman who made a Star Wars flight suit in 1977 entirely from trading cards and sketching details in the theater. or stories I’ve heard about old school Trek cosplayers getting the bizarre seam placements right by photocopying magazines onto overhead transparencies and projecting them onto butcher paper.

I’m a semi old school cosplayer (started in 2001) so some of the old school techniques are still things I learned on (I’ve sketched from stuttering VHS tapes on pause and used the overhead transparency trick)… what we have access to now for costume recreation blows what they had out of the water just in terms of reference material, let alone specialty costume supplies like thermoplastics and cosplay wigs.

[meeedeee]

That Star Wars fan who made the flight suit from trading cards and movie sketches is TJ Burnside and she is still with us. In fact, I am adding to her Fanlore page with info about the flight suit (and how it went viral on Twitter and Redditt a few years back). Fanlore.org, is a fan run fandom history wiki. Stay tuned.

Her (sadly) barebones Fanlore page is here: https://fanlore.org/wiki/T.J._Burnside

if you are a parent, or may become one, or you are otherwise likely to arrive in the situation of caring for a child while they eat, promise me this: if a child doesn't like a certain food or food group, you will ask them WHY. and specifically, you will pay attention to either confirming or ruling out "it makes my mouth itch" or "it makes my stomach hurt," both of which are medically important info that children may not provide unprompted. which i know because this PSA has been brought to you by "i spent my entire childhood and much of my early teens eating peas and lentils while wondering why everyone else liked the Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation so much, like were they a bunch of legume masochists or something, before i finally realized that Violently Itchy Mouth Sensation was in fact a sinister demon appearing only to me, and her true demonic name was: Legume Allergy"

[paparoach]

🥲 sorry to do this but um I dont think im going to have enough money to cover my monthly charges before I get paid. I've been trying to be careful with my money but I send half my recent check to my mom to help with bills and. Completely forgot about my own.

I'm not sure what I'm aiming for. $30-$50 should be good enough to help with what I need. Sorry.

Imagine that your knowledge of the once-lost Earth is limited to religious stories, legends about the past, rare and hard-to-find texts and images, and one tree you've seen in person... And then you're given access to nature documentaries. Would you choose sleep over watching movies?

Simon rejected sleep.

Simon is afraid that everything will be taken away from him again(((
