bashir and garak dracula book club. garak has no idea what a vampire is (he’s never even heard of count dracula before now, he didn’t even know what genre the book was until he saw the tags on the file bashir sent him) but even HE can spot the red flags and he keeps insisting that jonathan is a dumbass for not leaving or trying to kill the count immediately. julian keeps trying to explain that for most humans, especially in the late victorian era, “my host is a supernatural being and i need to get tf out of here” is NOT your first conclusion when a guy throws your shaving mirror out the window, and garak responds with something about humans lacking a self-preservation instinct. his whole argument basically boils down to “if i were in a spooky old castle and my host gave me bad vibes i would simply leave. rip to jonathan harker but i’m different.” they argue about this in the replimat for 3 hours
