Codenameregnar - Cardassian Sympathizer

normal things to say to your lunch buddy

"I want you to take that rod... and eat it." - Garak, 'Improbable Cause'

I was about to add commentary to the nice art I just reblogged but thought it would probably come off shady by accident fkckfk.

But Julian is canonically 28 in S1. We don't know Garak's age- in Improbable Cause he says Mila has worked for Tain for over thirty years, which could technically imply a thirty-something year old Garak, but A) we don't know how long Cardassian years are relative to Terran years and B) Garak is a notoriously evasive liar. Andy Robinson is 23 years older than Alexander Siddig, so I always head canon Garak as at least 20 years (or the sci-fi equivalent thereof) older that Julian- solidly middle aged, late 40s/early 50s. So yeah, Garashir insane age gap is real and makes their Whole Deal very funny to me.

Also I was curious so I looked it up just now and O'Brien is canonically 41 in S1 which also makes their Whole Thing very funny to me as well kxkckc

imagine living on ds9 and dropping your pants off to get hemmed and a few days later you get a notification that they won’t be finished on time because the tailor got put in jail for attempted genocide

There should've been a virus causing universal translator malfunction episode on ds9 in which Bashir either knows everyone's languages or only speaks like an obscure dialectic of Arabic and nothing else. Garak and Bashir spend the episode making heart eyes at each other while everyone else tries to stop the space station from exploding

real reason for their beef
