i know it was ultimately just a plot contrivance created to allow ds9 to dig quickly and deeply into julian’s past, but the fact that dr. zimmerman set out to create a long-term relationship doctor dating sim medical hologram that would be able to effortlessly and pleasantly interact with all sorts of people and starfleet medical pointed him specifically in the direction of julian bashir is hilarious to me for multiple reasons

I literally automatically assumed it’s because he’s pretty. Like I didn’t even think about it, I was just like, “Oh yeah, that makes sense, look at the guy.”

Well, he DID almost get the Carrington award, plus he wrote several very important papers and is likely the most experienced Starfleet doctor when it comes to Gamma Quadrant species/disease, so I really would not understate the possibility that his credentials played a BIG role. But yeah… he’s so pretty. I bet he is featured regularly on the centerfold of each and every Starfleet Medical magazine. He even probably has several pin-up photo calendars featuring exclusively him… and he does not know about it. (Garak bought 50 copies. Because of reasons.)

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

He's so super into Jadzia that's he terrified of her kissing him.
