The way sisko will hone in on the location of a baby on the station or whatever planet or ship he is on and go and coo over it is so dear to me. Like no matter whether something is human or not human, a federation species or an enemy of the federation, solid or gelatinous, if its a baby sisko will pick it up and go aww hellooooo. Guaranteed.

thinking about the time garak decided to fake an attempt on his own life with a real actual bomb that destroyed his entire store rather than ask odo for help directly

The kinda hoops I’ll jump through before I admit I need help.

I’m excited to finally get to the scene

during my Spanish rewatch

where Nog explains why he wants to join Starfleet. It’s one of my favorite scenes in the series. Nog sounds a little too young and Sisko is scary for a moment there, but the Spanish dub cast still go for those emotional highs.

See you next time when I’m watching this again but in Italian.

not a new thought c.f. the Eddington post and the Gul Duqat Work post but it’s so incredible that all through ds9 villains and baddies of various sorts long to be Sisko’s nemesis and he resists completely and is like “I don’t think about you at all” and then the VERY LAST SEASON we find out that he’s still hung up on his rivalry with some Vulcan he went to college with and once had a drunken and wildly unmatched wrestling match with. I love him so much

I used to hear about people learning Japanese to watch anime in its original dub and would think that’s nuts, bonkers, bananas!

Now here I am thinking it’ll be fun to learn every language DS9 was dubbed into just so I can rewatch it with different voices.

Gonna take out a loan to further invest in my education.
