Had a nasty little thought that the real reason Julian Bashir was allowed to stay in Starfleet was because Starfleet officers consent to be tracked. Even when on leave their commanding officer still knows where they are supposed to be in case they need to be recalled in a hurry. Civilian Bashir could go anywhere, Starfleet Bashir remains under legal surveillance.

nothing gets me quite like characters - who are incredibly relationship-averse and for whom saying the word “love” is equivalent to having their teeth pulled - fall irrevocably hard, and in a moment of breathless awe and clarity say i love you - soft and fragile - surprising both themselves and their partner. And when pressed further, instead of backtracking in fear, they gather their resolve and say it again
