Summary: “Julian and Garak reflect on their new happy life together raising their daughter.”

Garashir nation???? We're back???

If you really think about it Julian’s the one, who has it easy if they ever get married. He won't have to go to Garak’s parents asking for permission to marry their son, and technically Garak doesn’t either, but Garak does have the challenge of trying to convince everyone in ops to let him marry their doctor. Imagine having to go on a bunch of side quests to get each of your partner's coworkers blessing and even after all that The Benjamin Sisko is your final boss. Tougher done than said.

Concept of Julian Bashir on Cardassia working in hospitals and constantly having like 12 Cardassian babies hanging off of him for the heat that he radiates. Then he goes to pick up dinner after work from a local restaurant and the cashier’s hand lingers when handing him back his food and just kinda holds his hand for a long time marvelling at his warmth. Then he goes home to his lizard man husband who attaches himself like an invasive species as they lie in bed to fall asleep together. Julian Bashir is content.

Okay I’m asking the real questions here:

I think the formula for my favourite ships are Person A whose pretty chill guy about everything and is just going about life and Person B is just an obsessive freak who has probably a list of the full names and ages of all of Person A's ex-partners

Does anyone else ever think about Garak cold-blooded-reptile-lizard-man-thing and Bashir warm-blooded-human-who-runs-like-a-fucking-furnace cuddling together at night. Cause I do. A lot.

I’m begging everyone to go back and re-visit the s1e15 “If Wishes Were Horses” on ds9 because oh my god-

Julian’s whole part in the episode is his crush on Jadzia but there’s a scene early on at like 10 minutes where everyone’s imaginations come to life and the whole scene is with him and imaginary Jadzia waking him up and kissing him and I cannot listen to the way he’s whining and whimpering into the kiss without imagining a garashir situation swap where Garak’s the one who runs his hands through Julian’s hair and kisses him non-stop and being all seductive and eventually pulling Julian down onto the bed-

And then later the real Garak seeing the imaginary Garak and Julian being very flustered meanwhile he’s just a smug old lizard.

The symbolism of Garak being an assassin who has taken many lives and Bashir forgiving him for it.

Paired with Bashir as a doctor who saves and heals lives and Garak falling in love with him for it.

Words cannot describe how much I love this image. Look at them. Homosexual👆👆👆🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈

NOTHING fucks me up more than “has it ever occurred to you that i might be getting exactly what i deserve?” “nobody deserves this.” garak is trying so hard to punish himself and be disgusting and unlovable and julian just says “no, actually, i will love you anyway, i will love you despite your pain, i will love you despite the lies you tell me, i will love you no matter what” i will ALWAYS go crazy for that

Maybe it's a good thing garak hasn't been born yet, he'd be fuming at the state of modern fashion.

Star Trek: Lower Decks 5x9 - GARASHIR SUPERCUT

so uh guess what i watched

(prints!)

Given that this gifset was one of the reasons I made my whole tumblr account, and in light of current beautiful Star Trek events, I’m reblogging this work of art

Andrew Robinson on playing Garak for the first time. 

Something something something Andrew Robinson and Alexander Siddig’s convention performances walked so lower decks could run something something

Also damn, spirk and garashir in like a month? We’re eating so good

So is there any overlap between the Star Trek and Gravity Falls fanbases?

Ford could have visited Deep Space Nine while he was in the multiverse, right? To get parts for the quantum destabilizer or something like that.

Garak whenever someone accuses him of being a spy

Rick Berman: Garak is straight Andy Robinson:

space airport show :-)

"There's a scene where Rene's face is peeling off and kind of wasting away. And I don't think I've ever had more fun in terms of the intensity of the scene where [Odo and Garak] are huddled together. And, in fact, I kept telling them to put their faces closer and closer together. So the intimacy of it was incredible. It was almost like a love story in a nonsexual way." - Director David Livingston re: the interrogation scene from the Star Trek DS9 episode The Die is Cast.

This episode was just on Pluto TV. And I thought it an appropriate time to fully capture the director's exact words about the scene above.

*To the tune of "Uptown Girl"*

Lizard spy! He got exiled and he won't tell why!
