god its just,,,, do you ever think about how the level of intimacy that garak and julian have by the end of the show is so intense. even if you take canon depiction VERY seriously and assume they didn’t have many offscreen interactions that were substantially different from what we see onscreen, and that they seemed to grow apart in the last two seasons, they are just!!!! like, they obviously desire each other Sexually ™ but there’s a point at which it doesn’t feel like sex would actually be much of an upgrade intimacy-wise. they are so close. they are already physically comfortable being in each other’s space. and of course there’s “by inferno’s light” but i can’t get into that again or i’ll go feral. but like, the way they are just? so? connected????

I am here for Garak helping in the Infirmary and trying to stop Julian from overworking himself <3
