I love when trauma makes characters messy. I love when characters don't know how to show love. I love when they lash out. I love when they're vile and break down. I love characters who aren't perfect victims. I love when stories don't excuse behaviour but allow you to understand it

speachless about it tbh
thats a lie actually I have a lot to say on the matter
seriously tho garak had no /excuse/ he had a lot of very understandable reasons tho
and tbh I know full well that if I was in his place tain would say jump and id say how high too
and after a life of serving the state in that role yea of course youre gonna become desensitized to the atrocities youre committing
at least to an extent. until you really sit down and think about it yk. so you spend youre whole life chasing aproval instead of having to
face yourself and your choices
like he never wanted any of this. but he chose it anyway. and can anyone really blame him for that
the whole thing of being made into a weapon against your will but youve managed to convince yourself it will serve you. bc what else can you
really do. only to then have to relearn how to be soft and compassionate. and how could you even begin to try after everything youve done.
how could you ever face it all to atone for it
