~Oh, Worm~

The best thing to happen in The Reality War is still the Rani saying to Mel with 100% conviction "You thought of me every night." As if she's the source of all Mel's trauma and the haunter of her narrative, and not lucky if she makes it into Mel's top 10 monsters of the week. Hell, after Trial of a Time Lord she'd be lucky to make it into Mel's top 3 evil Time Lords. I'd be embarrassed for the Rani if she actually noticed how obsessed she sounds.

Honestly Daniel feels like that one meme. “WELCOME MORTAL TO THE END OF - oh it’s you again.”

we used to get christmas episodes of television. halloween episodes. valentines. we used to get television that felt like part of your life. like it was happening alongside your life. now we mostly get 8 episodes dropping all at once every two years and they don't have time for any of that. i miss characters living alongside us

i love how fussy picard is about letting people take runabouts for any reason, personal or private. like he makes everyone file 63 pieces of paperwork to just board one. but then there's my man sisko, who's too busy playing with his baseball and thinking about what he's cooking for dinner to even care. kira wants to go kill someone? sure, why not. julian needs to go on a homoerotic mission with his boyfriend? hmm? ok yeah whatever. quark needs to do literally anything? sisko is thinking about baseball so you're as good as gone.

I think everything that is happening to Doctor Bashir is so much more fun and unhinged when you remember that it's his first job ever. Like he was just writing his finals a week ago and now he's saving people's lives and flirting with a fashionable spy lizard (affectionately) on the edge of the galaxy
