Chapter 2 of my cursed “In the Pale Moonlight” Siskarak fake dating fic! Featuring rewrites of the turbolift scene and the scene where Sisko requests biomimetic gel from Bashir!

I’ve finally decided to start posted my de-aging fic! 

Note: This is set in my ‘This Be The Verse’ AU. Plotwise, I think there’s enough exposition here that it can be read without prior knowledge of the series (you will either come into it with a good idea of what world the de-aged characters are waking up in, or you will learn about it as they do). Emotionally, there are some scenes that will probably be more effective if you’ve read at least one of the other works in this series. Chronologically, this is set about 15 years after Tell Me You See Me (which is itself set a few months after the finale), and between chapters 1 and 2 of This Be The Verse.

cause everything you heard is true your poor little heart will end up alone cause lord knows i’m a rolling stone so you better run, run, run away, run away, baby
