i hate them

[magpieandpossum]

I LOVE THEM I just adore them so much….they’re my little lab rats….also this is my first time drawing garak so please be patient with me :(

[a-most-beloved-fool]

there are many neat reptilian characteristics that one can give Cardassians. I've seen shedding scales, tails and claws, scent marking, and people making them ectothermic.

but consider:

Color changing ridges. Just for funsies. We already tend to headcanon that the ridges and spoons (chula, if you prefer) turn blue when aroused, mimicking the make up they wear in canon, but it would be a bit interesting if the ridges were Fully color changing, a la chameleons. Especially if they changed color based on emotions.

Because their culture is very focused on the Good of the State, it would probably be taboo to have your emotions plainly visible (too much risk of your colors giving away the fact that you aren't 100% content blindly serving the state). I think it would be typical to wear make up to cover up the color changing scales, or to wear paint in 'positive' colors.

Soldiers and the Obsidian Order might even find a way to chemically neutralize the color changing, either temporarily or permanently - it could be far too much of a liability, if someone got captured and interrogated.

Most non-Cardassians would be entirely unaware that this was a normal part of Cardassian physiology. Novels might have oblique references to the colors when describing emotions, but any book that spoke too clearly of them would be almost sure to get banned. Bashir would be slowly taking notes about which colors in novels seemed to correspond to which emotions, but he'd have no idea that it was because Cardassians could Literally Turn Those Colors. He'd just assume their color theory was different, and that they were Really into color metaphors for some reason.

Could be interesting to explore the cultural implications and see what kinds of new mischief happens on the station due to it.

I've not posted anything about DS9 for a while, instead I've let it consume my existence in silence. No more. I'm sad bc Bashir is less silly goofy. Poor guy. I want to give him a hug. I know why he's less silly goofy. But it's still sad. He used to navigate through life with such vigor and zest and flare and aditude and infodumpingness and humor, and now its missing. Idk.

So called alien fuckers when middle age terrorist reptiles start flirting with them

Starfleet fires you, but your station has another operating force, and lord knows your coworkers will exploit any loopholes to keep you on as the station's CMO.

Kinda based on this post from @autisticburnham

Do you think Garak and O'Brien get competitive over demolishing Bashir's walls and do you think it's better or worse after Empok Nor?

[s-sputnik-k]

I absolutely adore the fact that when Sisko found out that a bunch of stuffy ambassadors would be visiting, his thoughts were 'hm, who can compete with people who can talk for hours on end, approach every situation with obnoxious specificity and be generally flambouyant? ah yes, doctor bashir' and proceeded to force him into awkward conversation for the rest of the day. I get the feeling that its a little bit of vengeance for all of the talking Bashir does, and Sisko also knows he can trust him to at least try to defuse situations if they get hostile. Who could resist the charm of their strange young doctor?

Girl, So Confusing

The Garashir fan edit that somebody actually did ask for.

@bugbashir, this one is for you! I hope you find it satisfactory. Also, hopefully you're in a country that doesn't block this.

[galactic-magick]

Star Trek makes me soooo crazy cuz you got Picard saying things like "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose."

And Data saying things like "I would gladly risk feeling bad at times, if it also meant that I could taste my dessert."

And Bashir saying things like “You can't go through life trying to avoid getting a broken heart. If you do, it'll break from loneliness anyway."

And Odo sayings things like "It has been my observation that one of the prices of giving people freedom of choice is that sometimes they make the wrong choice."

And I’m just supposed to be normal about it???

Their horniest gif. Julian has got to stop making that face while Garak talks about them going to his quarters and very pointedly puts a cork in a bottle

[frakes]

I continue to underestimate you, Garak. STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE • 2.05 “Cardassians”

Avery Brooks deliveries that make me smile every time single I think of them.
