Listen Iām only like 50 pages into enigma tales but. Aging gay reptile aliens healing themselves and their planet from trauma are actually something that can be so personal
I have a head cannon that Parmak’s glasses are technologically advanced and overlaying helpful read-outs onto whatever he’s looking at like telling him a patient’s blood pressure and heart rate and other useful data. Also they adjust in thickness, turning into reading glasses when he looks at something close - kind of like how a camera automatically knows how to focus.
my take on kelas parmak
kelas parmak is like the kind of activist that didn’t crow on twitter about maggie thatcher being dead, but did annoy their neighbours by putting ‘ding dong the witch is dead’ on blast for a full hour

Just fucking. I have so many feelings about this. I’ve read so many fics in which he’s doing admin. I’ve even written it! BUT ANDY ROBINSON’S MIND! Fucking hell. Search and rescue. With Dr. Parmak from “stared at him for four hours and got him to confess” fame. HAS ADMITTED HE STILL CAN’T LOOK GARAK IN THE EYES.
They end up a couple according to Memory Beta. I haven’t gotten that far yet in the book.
