I don't know what I'm doing

- siddig has confirmed garashir is real

- andy has repeatedly and profusely said that garashir is real

- one of the producers saying garashir was real

- andy and siddig wrote and performed that comic-con garashir play

- andy wrote a whole ass published novel that includes garashir

- And now: lower decks making au!garak x holoprogram!bashir canon

SIDDIG: A lot of gay men at that time, and maybe even gay women, kinda responded to the Bashir character. I think that was because of (Garashir), and maybe the bravery of not only that, but also an implicitly Muslim character being potentially gay, potentially bi, potentially gay if they’d explored that route. That is something Garak brought with him to the party, a bottle of implied homosexuality…

LLOYD [interviewer]: So were you aware in the 90s that it was homoerotically charged and on board with that? SIDDIG: I was aware of it in the back of my mind, yes, absolutely, and encouraged it. At my first meeting with Garak I became visibly flustered. That was entirely my choice. It wasn’t written into the script. So I set off in that direction right from the get-go. And Andy (Andrew Robinson) obviously loved it, and that character became a series-long character because of that first scene…

I'll be taking 3 (THREE) Star Trek imagine requests for now.

Please refer to my Characters I write for post about my preferences and guidelines. Please ask about anything that's not specified!

Rule is first come, first served, however I do reserve the right to choose requests for characters listed in the characters preferred list and decline requests for characters I don't know well enough to write for!

Expect around 500 word imagines, I will try to do my best, I am very rusty.

As always, I work with a character x reader format, that can be either romanic or platonic (not smut!).

I usually work with prompts, so this time I would like to use THIS prompt list.

What your request should definitely contain: name of character, number of your prompt/the prompt itself. If one of these is not specified, I won't be able to accept the request.

I am currently in the phase of my summer holidays that I’m doing nothing and sitting in bed all day so I need some motivation to do stuff!

Is anyone interested in some Star Trek fics by yours truly?🥺

this wasn't an invitation to send in requests just yet. I was just trying to see if there were still people interested.
