Okay, sorry to hijack this post but it just reminded one of the main reasons I’m just SO ANNOYED the series didn’t end with Julian going off to Cardassia to help rebuild it, and it has absolutely nothing to do with my little Garashir shipper heart.
No, it’s because we were cheated of the scene of when Julian is saying goodbye to everyone, and someone mentions how tough it’s going to be since Cardassia’s been “bombed back to the stone age” or something like that, and then Kira says, “Well, I guess the Cardassians are lucky one of the best doctors in Starfleet still has a taste for frontier medicine” wink, haha.
but then Julian just gives this self-deprecating little smile and looks her straight in the eye and says, “It’s not a frontier. It’s their home.” And they just smile knowingly at each other, appreciating how much things have changed and how much they’ve both grown and learned and UGH I’M JUST SO M AD I DIDN’T GET TO SEE NANA AND SID ACT THIS SCENE CAUSE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PERF
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. Likes and asks end up in the name of @apolesens-otheraccount, because Tumblr doesn't have a way of changing which blog is your primary one. Nothing happens over there - this is the one to follow.
