the discussion of Garak’s childishness and malleablity has given me the funny mental image from an AU I play around with but probably will never right of like

Garakh, from a timeline where either Cardassians didn't completely conquer Hebitians or the Union crumbled during a crisis a few centuries back, his uncle had custody and raised him to be openly mixed race and follower of Oralius, probably has a chill job as a teacher and a side gig as a minor clergy member/low key counseler, looking at the other version of himself who hates himself and is neurotic like a beaten police dog on top of denying the most basic facts about himself. And realizing this bitch has the emotional maturity of one of his students

#cipher talk #Garakh has still been traumatized tbf. He still has daddy and mommy issues. But they've got nothing on Prime Garak #It goes next to-#Prime!Garak (offended by this Hebitian version of him existing and therefore implying ~disloyalty~): I am a good son of Cardassia!#Garakh (looking at his neuroses and general vibe): I'm sure you are (derogatory)#The AU is basically 'what if garak and Julian were raised by an uncle/aunt instead and didn't experience a specific trauma'#And spirals from there #So basically Garak was raised by Tolan and accepts his mixed identity and never was a member of the Order #And Jules was raised by his aunt who fled the Federation because she got sick of being harassed for being religious and was never Augmented #(His aunt is chill I need to actually use her in a fic. I've plotted fics with her and never finished them)
