Garak: The temperature is always too cold. The lights are always too bright.
Julian, an autistic man with these same problems: Yeah, that’s rough, buddy.

I know this doesn’t matter because he’s the best anyway but do you think Garak fits into like problematic (sorta) villainous gay character stereotype so common in 90s media
kaelio:
He’s 100% that, but a protagonist. which rules.
That scene where garak tries to set odo up on a date is perhaps one of my favorite scenes of him, simply because it’s a side of garak we hadn’t seen before (and odo being the object of that lady’s affections is sweet). here’s friendly Garak, he has actual customers and tries to play matchmaker with his buddies ! And odo has to work his way through a social interaction and think about his feeling!! Dimension! Characters!
he’s a fictional character to you, i know him personally
what if garak made little build-a-bear-esque outfits for kukalaka. but he doesn’t say anything about it. just one day julian walks in his quarters and kukalaka is wearing a tiny little outfit that looks suspiciously like something from garak’s wardrobe. julian questions garak abt it but he’s just like “why would you think I had something to do with your bear’s charming little number, my dear doctor? I’m just as confused as you :)” while wearing an outfit that is identical to kukalaka’s
uhhh honey? your poor little meow meow just committed murder

why must life have a grand purpose? is it not enough to have some coffee while admiring the stack of unread books beside you?
Looking at those gifs of Jim and McCoy and wishing Garak and O'Brien could have been better friends.
It would have been nice to have that sort of triad dynamic? Not necessarily romantic, but maybe open to interpretation enough to allow theorizing the way Jim, Spock, and McCoy can be sorted into all sorts of combinations.
I just think it would have been nice. Like it would just be nice to see Garak having more friends tbh. But I think Julian would have been happier if his two favorite people liked each other a little more.
I believe in fat garak supremacy
