ziyal survives the war -> is unofficially adopted by both garak and kira separately (Very Separately.) -> asks to spend time on cardassia during the reconstruction -> kira comes along because it’s a disaster out there and she’s not letting ziyal go by herself -> comedy of errors where kira keeps getting mistaken for garak’s quite young wife (but what a lovely daughter you have together! she looks so much like you! divorced, you say? what a shame…) -> kira’s head explodes. the end

If they were drunk enough, both Garak and Kira would not only roll with this assumption but would take it to the absolute extreme. IF they were drunk enough.

Spitballing with the fellas on discord and we've come up with a Star Trek character we want to see: A 200-year-old top Vulcan diplomat attending a function and laughing boisterously and slapping backs with everyone and then just relaxing into resting bitch face the moment nobody is watching him. He takes his job deadly seriously and studied parties extensively in the diplomatic academy. Every year he's brushing up on new developments in party theory. He knows every party nuance you could possibly think of, for the sake of intergalactic relations. Peace in the galaxy depends on it. It's weird but you gotta meet people where they're at, he thinks.

Sarek fucking hates this guy and it's 100% envy

This moment is such a good example of why Garak stayed loyal to Tain: because sometimes a neglectful parent pays attention, sometimes an abusive parent is kind, and sometimes you forget they aren’t always loving. That’s why their relationship in ds9 is so compelling; it’s an excellent example of how Garak himself is a complicated, but ultimately understandable and relatable character.

Wait I love this actually
