#oh thank god #Star Trek #DS9 #(for those of you who don’t know:) #(at one point this character is kidnapped and replaced with a shapeshifting infiltrator) #(Doylistically the writers only decided this at the beginning of the two-parter in which it is revealed) #(but they retconned it as having been about a month) #(but the thing is) #(there are *so many time cues* throughout the preceding handful of episodes) #(that it really looks like you’re *supposed* to go back and figure out which episode he was switched in) #(and rewatch with the shapeshifter’s real identity in mind) #(but you’re not) #(and if you try it doesn’t make any sense) #(because they weren’t actually writing him as a shapeshifting infiltrator at the time)

in the communist utopia of the federation, class differences are so taboo as to become kinks. what i’m saying is,

julian bashir, wearing a tuxedo and carelessly holding an artisan wineglass, eyes half lidded: oh miles, say that again!

miles o’brien, in a greasy mechanic outfit, putting on his best show of Righteous Rage:  labor is entitled to all it creates

Y’ALL. i need your help with ds9 fic recs that are not spoilery beyond the end of s5! tumblr user @replicarters beloved of this blog is like starving and we need to help her. she especially wants kira fic and kira/dax (or kira & dax) fic and fic about dax and sisko. probably also just dax fic in general. 

i have already recommended to her @singlecrow‘s ‘malice aforethought’ one of the best ds9 stories of all time, @starstarship‘s brilliant series ‘not for money and not for food’ among others, and recommend them to you also

help us out!

I can mostly only recommend shortish fic but here are a few ideas off the top of my head:

Old Habits by @mylittleredgirl, a cute first-season Dax and Sisko story

Confident Sutures by pipistrelle, missing scenes from Invasive Procedures

Trompe L’oeil by @brinnanza, Kira/Dax loveliness set during The Way of the Warrior

The Ache in Every Song by Thistlerose – more nice early Kira/Dax

What You Will Know by @little-brisk – delicious Kira/Dax set early in canon

Rebuilding by @eponymous-rose – sweet Kira/Dax earlyish in canon

I have nothing to say regarding the actual topic, only this: what is it with people named Brin (or spelling variations thereupon) and terrible name puns? Other Brins I have encountered include “brinconvenient” and “Brynncognito”. I don’t have a pun in my username, but my blog title is “Brinens and Things”.
