How we thought Martok would be: infuriating AF, basically Kruge II.

How Martok actually was: ultimate hype man who rambled about the songs that should be sung about Worf and acknowledged that Garak facing his claustrophobia took the same level of courage as going into battle.

fucking love worf and martok's dynamic so much they really do think the most of eachother. martok's a successful general who worked his way up from a low social standing when we meet him, his troops have faith in him, he has the ear of the chancellor, he's a popular guy -- and he's completely obsessed with world's biggest weirdo social outcast worf. and it's not like a charitable kind of "oh this guy's got no friends, i'll look out for him" kind of thing, he fully looks at worf and sees the klingon ideal of a warrior. and i think he's perpetually surprised by worf's extremely heroic tendencies like he'll be watching him do some main character of an epic fantasy kind of shit embodying the values of their people in the way you long give up on expecting once you're an adult in the real world, and he's thinking "is this guy real?? is he real???" and not only is he real, he pretends he's not hiding behind martok at parties to avoid talking to people.

Trektober Day 2 - Monsters & Magic. I think Worf would enjoy D&D but be a bit of a nightmare player.

This is something I've been thinking about for a while: a list of who should have been at Worf and Jadzia's wedding.

Picard

Data

Geordi

Riker

Deanna

Sergey and Helena Rozhenko ( Worf's adopted parents)

Nikolai Rozhenko (Worf's adopted bother)

Any of Jadzia's family

I know the in universe explanation for them not being there is because of the war going on and in RL they probably weren't able to get all the actors, but I think it would have been cool.

Seeing Geordi, Data, and Nikolai participating in the Kal'Hyah with the other would have been fun. Data having no trouble with any of it, Geordi and Data reuniting with Miles, and Nikolai telling them stories from Worf was a kid.

Helena and Sergey meeting Jadzia for the first time. I think they'd like her.

I could see Sirella and Helena butting heads over a couple of things.

It would have also been nice if they could have incorporated some Trill and Human customs into their wedding. Maybe a Trill vow and an exchange of rings.

If anyone knows of a fic like this, let me know.

It's the end of Pride month where I live, so here are the DS9 crew reacting to Bashir coming out

[sirellas]

General, perhaps you should return to Qo'noS and make your plea in person. The Chancellor has great respect for you. If you cannot persuade him, no one can.

STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE || FAVOUR THE BOLD

[maintitle]

love love love LOVE how they use By Inferno's Light to show not only Garak fighting his claustrophobia, but the Klingon reaction to claustrophobia. A weak writer would've implied that such a thing was cowardice, but both Worf AND Martok (who is first to the Chancellor himself) see this as the ultimate act of bravery.

Martok: There is no greater enemy than one's own fears.

Worf: It takes a brave man to face them.

This is just so... I love Klingons. I love what DS9 brings to Klingons. Phobias and mental health alike, they're not weak, they are the ultimate enemy to wage continuous war against, and gain honor through. That's so much more powerful than what a weaker writer would've done with it.
