i think its interesting how ppl sometimes seem to think parmak practicing intentional forgiveness means he doesn't still harbor trauma and anger and pain about what garak did to him. his forgiveness necessarily is different than what julian can offer because julian was not harmed by what garak confesses to him. and of course it's julian who ultimately gets through to him, julian who starts him on his journey to become a better person. if i were parmak id be sitting over there like "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???" while also knowing that fundamentally of course julian can give garak something that i can't - a fresh start, a love that of course is not devoid of pain but is mostly based on hope and joy and mercy and finding light in the darkness. where was that mercy when i needed it from you, elim? you come back now, ready to be a better man, but for someone else?

and he thinks all that, feels all that, but still forgives. that's what i find so fascinating about the idea of parmak

[Image ID: A screenshot from ds9 of Garak and Bashir smiling at each other. There is a screenshot of a text conversation between them. Garak says, "hai. Sorry for not responding was in jail". Julian says "why". Garak: "Arson". Julian: "Oh. Are you bi". /. End ID]

it is what it is and there are more important things at play here. i can live with the one 90 minute episode ending if it means more women are safe. if it means it’s not a complete cancellation. i’ll take it

Cardassian side profiles are my favourite thing to doodle :)

“why is garak Like That” well for the first two seasons it’s because he’s on drugs. after that it’s because he’s not on drugs. hope this helps!

Garak is such a fun character because after a while everyone is just. Chill with him. Yeah that’s Garak he’s an ex spy. No he’s fine he won’t hurt you. Unless we ask him to, haha. Yeah he’s fine. Yeah he’s like our pet freak

Julian being hit by the brick wall that is that he wants the strange Cardassian tailor who is almost certainly a spy and is like, 10 years older than him. I don’t think that was on his Star Fleet bingo card when he signed up.
