Elim Garak 🤝 Hua Cheng
You are really lucky the guy you like is as weird as you are and into the shit that you do, because goodness gracious
#cipher talk#Elim 'expresses love by cutting himself and others open before you even ask on the assumption it's what you want' Garak#Vs Hua 'I literally carved hundreds of very big statues of him and refused godhood partially bc he is my God and I am his Worshipper' Cheng#Tbf I think Hua Cheng is worse but that's because he's allowed to be canonically gay and can do things like give Xie Lian a pendant made of#His literal cremains and keep the lock of hair that Xie Lian tied around his finger as a magic amulet forever#If garak was canonically queer. Well one I'll be honest I do not trust the shows writing team to not have sucked.#It's like the reani conundrum. If it was canon it would have achieved the goal of boundary pushing in a much more meaningful way than just#nudity and graphic depictions of SA but I'm Glad It Wasn't because it would've been so homophobic. Seriously the second you remember#the AIDS crisis was going on outright villainizing a gay man obsessed with curing death gets way more fucked up#But Garak would certainly aspire to Hua Cheng's level of weird. I think they have somewhat comparable views of love/loyalty/devotion
