Julian Bashir things I Love
- the venom in his voice when he’s forced to use the word “healer” in reference to someone he doesn’t think deserves it
- his complete disregard for everything, including the timeline and his own health and safety, when he is presented with people who are suffering
- and that strong protective energy he’s got. I can’t explain it but you know what I mean
- the way everyone uses “bedside manner” as a euphemism while goading various characters about being in love with him
- his pretty, pretty hands
- the way he manages to be soft and kind and gentle and compassionate while simultaneously a fearless badass and literal war hero
- those few times he got all his fancy 24th century tech taken away and was still an absolutely fantastic doctor with what whatever was at hand
- Tarkalean tea, extra sweet
- that one time he apologized to a tribble
- the way he reverse fire pole slides down ladders
- Kukalaka.
- he has every possible fantasy available to him and he just wants to be James Bond
- when he gets hyperexcited about complex science things
- when he’s in Doctor Mode™ he tiptoes so perfectly on the line between being no-nonsense and being consoling so he always comes across as concerned and comforting but also not patronizing
- incidentally, the way he is in Doctor Mode™ 100% of the time and if someone so much as sneezes near him he’s gonna fix it or else
- you could just leave your life in his hands and know you’d be okay
I love you all for every single one of these notes
