One of the things I appreciate about Julian as a doctor is that he’s willing to use more of what we’d consider traditional or folk medicine. (See: Kira’s makara herbs, Kasidy’s Tarkalean tea.) I think sometimes in sci-fi there’s an emphasis on shiny future medicines, and don’t get me wrong, I would love some of those. I just like the little acknowledgements that sometimes you don’t need a multisyllabic drug. Sometimes the basics, or what our ancestors used for generations, are perfect.
Anyway, I think this sets Julian apart from other Trek doctors, and I like it.
Yes! “You’d be surprised just how often traditional medicine turns out to have genuine value”, as he tells Quark in “Rivals”.
Garashir post canon with their bb girl. She’s eating noodles, this is how i imagine kelas but ive only read about him from fics so idk. But they’re all listing to baby talk about her drawing but its getting harder and harder to understand her while she gets distracted with a bug.
People on here always talk about if they were in the star trek universe what part of Starfleet they would want to be in and??? I don’t know about you but all I wanna be is this guy from ds9
I want nothing more than to be a Klingon man who owns a restaurant and sings folk music for my customers on the promenade. What a life.
Me, trying to hype myself up for A Stitch in Time: It’s not ok to be jealous of Kelas Parmak- a fictional character- for Julian-another fictional character-, it is not ok to be jealous of Kelas Parmak for Julian.
Cecil. She/her. During the day I sit in libraries staring at books. During the night I write queer fanfiction with a historical slant.
Some not-so-random facts: Gay space lizards are the best lizards. Star Trek is my life. I have too many DS9 ships. Classic Who and the Eighth Doctor Adventures make me grin stupidly. Kelas Parmak is the best. I will defend historically accurate portrayals of Alan Turing to the last drop of blood.
