hey since changelings can survive without an atmosphere what if odo just yote himself out the airlock sometimes when he Needed A Minute and just kinda hung onto the side of the station and vibed. feels in character for him

I need some art of Quark in his Onesie jammies in his quarters and all of a sudden Odo just slowly floats by with his arms crossed and an “I’m watching you” look on his face and Quark is just befuddled.

I’M SCREAMING OMG

While I have this on loop, let’s transcribe:

[scene: actor Andrew Robinson (Garak on Star Trek Deep Space Nine) is seated on a couch across from actors Dominic Keating (Malcolm Reed on Star Trek Enterprise) and Connor Trinneer (Charles ‘Trip’ Tucker on Star Trek Enterprise) as they record an episode of Dominic and Connor’s podcast, Shuttlepod Show]

Andrew: And then the next thing that happened, was when I walked on set to do the very first scene with Sid, I saw Sid. And he was one of the most beautiful young men I have ever seen in my life. And I thought, “Wait a second… wait second! I wanna f**k this guy. This is what this is about.” You know, forget about the spy shit. I have no idea what that means. That’s no action–

Connor: You can’t play that.

Andrew: And you can’t play that. But I can play… if I wanna get–if I wanna f**k somebody, I know how to play that.

Connor & Dominic: Right.

Dominic: Now they had no idea that this was–

Andrew: No idea.

Dominic: –some back thought.

Andrew: And Sid, god bless him, ‘cause the moment I put my hand on his shoulder…

Dominic: He felt it.

Andrew: He felt it. And he picked it right up.

Connor: Ohh, brilliant.

Dominic: Isn’t that great?

Andrew: Yeah, that’s why I got the job!

ds9 missed the chance to do an episode of the daily lives of the promenade merchants. quark and garak get into a disagreement when quark puts up an obnoxious new sign in front of the bar. garak declares it an eyesore that’s ruining business for everyone. the entire ep is them quipping at each other and seeing who can get their petition signed first. cut to crazy shenanigans of them making their case to a wide range of merchants with increasingly hilarious results. the number of signatures remains a tie until the klingon chef is all that remains. he sides with garak after garak says something that could either be a threat or a proposition for sex. the episode ends with quark taking down the sign, and he and garak commiserate over their shared businessman woes.

and idk maybe the b-plot is sisko and lwaxana switching bodies

ties of blood and water is one of my favorite ds9 episodes of all time do u remember anything from the writing process from that!!! the part where kira’s dad keeps talking about how the cardassians destroyed his garden as he died and then we see kira bury him in this like patch of rlly rough desolate ground and then when she returns to bury ghemor Its Literally A Garden . She Turned It Into A Garden . that part had me actually in tears. i love the way the cultivation of the burial plot almost mirrors the treatment of the space station imho, the way it was this like rough around the edges place but so much love ended up being put into it that it turned into a place of love and everything. and im so glad ghemor got to come back for another ep! one of my fav characters <3 you guys really did a lot of great stuff throughout the series with the themes of loss and grief!!!

“Ties of Blood and Water” was very much about me processing my own guilt for missing my mother’s death. I was at grad school in L.A. She was fighting colon cancer in S.F. The last time I called her to check on how she was feeling, she said she was feeling good and I should stay for finals week, then come home.

She died the next day.

I’ve always regretted not coming home early so I could see her one last time, and that’s the basis for that episode.

As you can imagine, it was a tough and deeply personal story to write, and I’m glad it ended up as one of your favorites.
