WIP Fanfictions:

Masterlist of the seven fanfictions I’m currently writing. Will be updated as progress is made!!

To see my published fanfictions, go here to my AO3

Green fics are being actively worked on while orange fics are touched less consistently. Blue are actively being published and are a priority.

.

1) Thorin Oakenshield x Bilbo Baggins - Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit - Cultural differences being abound as an innocent Hobbit is corrupted by our favorite dwarven king. (NSFW, gay, corruption kink)

2) Harry Potter x Draco Malfoy - Harry Potter book and movie franchises - An entire fucking rewrite of the book series where Harry is far more proactive and more of a BAMF in trying to not only thwart, but also go on the offense in the war between good and evil, as well as his life after. (NSFW, gay, portrayals of addiction, graphic violence, death and murder (but it’s only the bad guys cause I’m only capable of writing happy endings))

3) Julian Bashir x Elim Garak - Star Trek: Deep Space 9 - post-Dominion war ... it's incredibly fucking complicated. Nearly a decade ago, Julian Bashir, along with 12 other augmented children were rescued from a secret base on an asteroid, rehabilitated, and given the chance at real lives. When Dr. Zimmerman boards the DS9 having already realized Julian is an augment, Starfleet creates the lie that it was done by his parents in order to save face for the fact that they knew Julian was an augment before he ever even enrolled at the academy. But when the truth begins to come out, Garak is quite fascinated by just how good a liar Julian actually is.

4) Reader x Dr. T’Ana - Star Trek: Lower Decks - A dying cryo-ship is stumbled upon by the USS: Cerritos with only a single human aboard. Dr. T’Ana finds herself suspicious of the woman born four hundred years ago as her crumbling relationship with Shaxs leads her to a queer crisis.

5) Reader x Cicero - Elder Scrolls X: Skyrim - After the final battle against Alduin, something went wrong. Very wrong. The Dragonborn should not have been able to absorb Alduin’s soul. Yet, she did. What happens when the souls of a Dragonborn and a demigod combine?

6) Reader x Asterion - Baldur’s Gate III - The Nautiloid slipped from world to world, dimension to dimension, and universe to universe with all the ease of a cockroach squirming under a door. Until, shortly before the events leading to its crash, it crashed through the realm of the goddess of dreams, accidentally taking the goddess and resetting her to a weakened mortal form.

7) Sam x Gabriel - Supernatural - After Jack resets the world, all seems normal. Dangers are still abound, but not nearly as serious as they once were. A powerful mage trying to find eternal youth has popped up on the Winchester’s radar, but after investigating and finding the perp, Sam is hit with the interrupted magic ritual and is reverted back to who he was in his college days. Unfortunately for him, a certain trickster archangel was also resurrected by Jack. Even more unfortunate, Sam was quite the asshole in college. Just the kind that Gabriel had always taken a particular joy in humbling.

Sensitivity reader needed!

I'm looking for a sensitivity reader to check a few ideas for something I'm writing. It's for a Star Trek fanfic. The main character is a POC who has a mild telepathic disability.

More info:

The fic is kinda a romance (friends to lovers)/fix it fic for Garak.

The main character is agender, BIPOC, omnisexual, and has a mild telepathic disability.

If you want to go ahead and read everything I have so far, that would be much appreciated. It's 90k words.

A quick summary: this story follows the relationship of Garak, a former Obsidian Order agent and Mara, a young xenobotanist with a troubled past and a deep-seated desire to belong. Despite the rough start to their friendship and the many obstacles in their way, they find companionship and understanding in each other's company. Will they let their past mistakes define them or will they choose to forge a new path? Follow their journey to find love and redemption amongst betrayal and deception.

Other notable things: There's tons of mutual pining. They're both idiots in love. So much hurt/comfort. Also my personal favorites Unnamed Old Man and The Murder Trees.

In return I can offer to beta read or sensitivity read for asexuality, aromanticism, agender/nonbinary/(afab)trans identities, depression, anxiety, and chronic pain.

Or I can draw you a very bad drawing of Garak.

Wowie, what an all-star cast! Videogames, comics, movies, anime, cartoons, classic literature, and more.

So, I'm going to aim to get the ball rolling, let's say October 14th. I'll start with Men's Round 1, then the following week do Women's Round 1, and so on. I will post the actual brackets a bit closer to that date.

In the meantime! If anyone would like to submit any propaganda, images, complaints, objections, or what have you, the ask box will remain open. I know last time had a pretty rocky start, but I am wise for the experience, and I think this time 'round will be even better.

Top five pairings!

BLESS YOU for giving me an excuse to post about my Blorbos. 😍🥺🙏 You have my eternal love and gratitude. I know I write mostly Reader fic, but that is a very recent development in nearly 3 decades of fandom and shipping (and mostly due to my need for adoration of Andy Serkis). I am, at my heart, a hopeless romantic that loves good chemistry and potential and yearning and angst and two idiots finding each other in spite of everything.

That being said, this was SO GODDAMNED HARD, HOLY SHIT!! 😭 I went with my current Top 5 because narrowing it down was too much. And I'm sure I missed something obvious because my brain is a scrampled egg sitting inside of a metal colander.

💚🩵 QuiObi

(Qui-Gon Jinn x Obi-Wan Kenobi, Star Wars)

***This is actually one I had in the 2000s, but the brain rot returned with a *vengeance* when I went to see the 25th anniversary of The Phantom Menace in theaters. I am even writing fic for it for the first time.

💜🩶 Starbreaker

(Jace Stardiamond x Porter Cliffbreaker, Dimension 20: Fantasy High Junior Year)

🧡💜 Shadowgast

(Caleb Widogast x Essek Thelyss, Critical Role: Campaign 2)

🩵💚 Dorym

(Dorian Storm x Orym of the Air Ashari, Critical Role: Campaign 3)

💚🤎 Lokius

(Loki x Mobius, Loki)

And now is the part where I fuckin cheat 😈😇

✨ Top 5 going back to ~1997

- MSR (Fox Mulder x Dana Scully, The X-Files)

- SanSan (Sandor Clegane "The Hound" x Sansa Stark, ASoIaF/Game of Thrones)

- Janeway x Chakotay (Star Trek: Voyager)

- Buffy x Giles (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

- Jaime x Brienne (ASoIaF/Game of Thrones)

✨ Top 5 slash going back to ~1997

- Aralas (Aragorn x Legolas, The Lord of the Rings)

- Hannigram (Will Graham x Hannibal Lecter, Hannibal)

- Aaron Hotchner x Spencer Reid (Criminal Minds)

- Gashir (Elim Garak x Julian Bashir, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)

Dang that's a lot of slash. 😅 I swear I have other ships! Like VillainEve (Villainelle x Eve from Killing Eve), J7 (Janeway x Seven in Star Trek: Voyager), Imodna (Imogen x Laudna, Critical Role Campaign 3), and Eyk x Maura (1899). ((LOOK AT ME CHEATING SOME MORE 😌))

[jojo-schmo]

Hey, can I see what your other Kirby ships look like?

Hahaha I'm going to be totally real, there really aren't a lot of other Kirby ships I actively think about other than metadede-!! -u-'

I don't know what it is, but that particular ship just happened to scratch an itch in my brain I didn't know I had lol. And I only really started shipping it around a year and a half ago! A King and a knight who have worked together through the ages and both have really interesting and different personalities and likes and dislikes... I have a lot of fun with them! I never thought I'd ever gain the confidence to regularly produce and share ship content on any platform. So I was happily surprised and grateful to find a little corner on the internet here to share my thoughts on them with willing readers haha.

Other than that.... I don't have a strict list of ships I stick to! I feel like I keep saying this kind of thing, but in most cases I get more enjoyment seeing other people's interpretations of ships more than producing them myself! The Kirby universe is rich with characters and a wonderful space to explore character interactions and relationships with each other (platonic or romantic or otherwise!)

I mean, I know everyone interprets Kirby character ages differently which is also cool and all! I just have my own set of established headcanons that I've been slowly cultivating since I got introduced to the series 15 or so years ago.

I personally see characters like Kirby, Bandee, the other Waddle Dees, Ribbon, Adeleine, Gooey, Prince Fluff, Elfilin, etc. as children. They're powerful and brave and very unique from each other, but still kids in my eyes.

And then there's the characters like Dedede, Meta Knight, Queen Ripple, Daroach, Hyness, etc. that are characterized definitively as adults. And other characters like Magolor, Taranza, Susie, the Mage Sisters, etc. that might be interpreted differently by different people, at least from what I have personally seen! (But I see them as adults, personally)

Again this is all my personal opinion haha. I quietly stay away from ships that mix characters from my personal child and adult categories above- (which are not exhaustive lists because this post would be ten million words if I tried to list every single Kirby character, and are my personal characterizations and not me trying to impose my views as the one, canon interpretation!).

OC x Canon is also enjoyable in my book as long as the ages and dynamics are appropriate and consensual for both parties :)

And I don't need or want to make a list of everything I stay away from or anything. I don't feel that strongly about it. I guess my biggest personal example is that if someone ships Metakirby or Dedekirby (or their respective mirror versions), I'm not going to enjoy or support that no matter what their creator's justifications/reasonings for shipping those are. I'm just going to stay away from that ardently.

Anyway, I'm not trying to be controversial or say my opinion is fact either! These are just my personal thoughts and feelings and I curate my internet experience accordingly. My interests change all the time, I just enjoy seeing character interactions and stories written with love and passion!

....If I had to pick another ship that I like thinking about, I guess I'd pick Magoranza. It's fun to think about how they'd interact with each other, and sometimes I like to think of Magolor and Taranza as Garak and Bashir from Star Trek hehehe.

TL;DR: At the time of writing this post I only like creating metadede content for Kirby ships but I quietly enjoy a variety of other people's ships.

Santa Claus

Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Pairing: Constable Odo x gn!Reader Words: 1.3K Summary: Odo knows a lot of people however he never met a certain "Santa Claus". From what he knows, he might be a criminal

Not my gif !!!!

WINTER WRITING PLAN

Odo wasn't sure how exactly he had ended up in this situation, but at the moment he was sitting at a table in Quarks with the Chief, Doctor Bashir and Commander Worf. Actually, he had only intended to make his usual rounds through the establishment, but the Chief and Bashir had successfully talked him down to join them.

From the look on his face, Worf didn't seem to feel any different.

"So, Commander? How are you going to spend the holidays?"

O'Brien glanced over at the Klingon, who looked even a little grimmer than usual. "I'm going to visit my parents on Earth. So far I had been able to avoid that tradition, however, I'm afraid it didn't work out this time." Bashir and O'Brien grinned at each other before the latter took a sip from his tankard.

"But Worf, Christmas is a time for fellowship, family and love. You must be looking forward to seeing your parents again, right?" Bashir grinned at Worf and Odo could see the man's jaw working.

"I never said I wasn't looking forward to it. I merely think the traditions are ridiculous. Santa Claus, the presents. A fairy tale for children, nothing more."

"Don't say that too loud or Molly will hear you," O'Brien returned, sighing. "She's gone insane lately. That's all she talks about, and she's driving me and Keiko right crazy."

Bashir laughed. "So I guess you're going to stay here?" O'Brien nodded and raised his eyebrow. "And you?"

"Also. I promised Garak I'd teach him some traditions this year. He thinks it's absolutely ridiculous, but it's worth a try."

" How about you, Constable?"  Odo looked up at the question and turned towards the doctor.

"Are you going to celebrate the holidays?"

When Odo did not answer, Bashir suddenly blushed. "Oh, I'm sorry. You probably don't even know what exactly we are talking about, right?"

O'Brien chocked on his drink and started coughing. "Julian!"

"What?! Odo basically 'grew up' on Bajor. They do not celebrate Christmas here!"

Slowly the three men turned to look at Odo, who grew more uncomfortable with every passing second.

"Of course I know what Christams is. I don't live under a rock" he growled before standing up abruptly. "If you gentlemen would excuse me now? I have a job to do!"

~**~

They couldn't really help but twist their lips into a smile when they heard the familiar hiss of doors announcing the arrival of their partner.

They lifted their head from their book just in time to see the doors close behind the changeling.

"Hey," they smiled and reached out to him. "How was your day?"

Odo came over to them and took their hand in his as he settled down, however he seemed lost in thought. "The usual."

Already used to his short answers, they smiled. "Oh, yeah? Well, you were gone longer today for that. Did you have to fill out any reports that were left behind?"

He snorted lightly. "I don't leave anything undone. My work routine is efficient enough to avoid such things." Slightly he rolled his eyes, however they knew he wasn't serious. "When I did my last round in Quark's bar, I was stopped by Doctor Bashir and Chief O'Brien. I tried to talk my way out of it, but it seemed impossible after they convinced Commander Worf.

"Wow," they said, straightening up so they could turn their body to face him.

"Julian and Miles have accomplished what I had always wanted to accomplish with you."

"Talking to me? We do that a lot."

They laughed. "No. Taking you out for a drink at Quark's."

Odo wrinkled his nose, though they could see the corners of his mouth twitch in a desperate attempt not to give in to a smile.

"Perhaps you'll be reassured to hear that I haven't taken a sip myself."

"You hardly ever drink."

"Then you should begin to realise that your great goal will probably never be fulfilled."

A laugh escaped them and Odo felt deep satisfaction in having made his partner laugh. He leaned back as they turned their backs to lean against him.

For some time they sat side by side in silence. As they went back to their book, Odo was perfectly content to rest his chin on their head and close his eyes.

In his mind, however, a question floated around that he did not want to banish.

"Who is Santa?"

They were mid-sentence when he asked his question, however, they stopped abruptly when Odo's question reached their hearing.

"Huh?"

" Santa Claus." They felt Odo shifting back and forth uncomfortably beneath them.

"Chief O'Brien mentioned in our conversation that Molly would not be happy to hear Worf talk about Santa Claus being a ridiculous children's fairy tale."

They sat up straight so they could look him in the face. For a moment they regarded him and with each passing second they realised that it made Odo incredibly uncomfortable not to have that bit of information and their faces softened.

They knew how discomforting it could be for the changeling not to know certain information, especially when it was natural or taken for granted by everyone else.

But the fact that he had confided in them instead of asking the computer warmed their hearts.

"That's what Santa Claus is, technically. A child's fairy tale, a made-up fantasy figure who is the symbol of Christmas."

"But what is his purpose? His function?"

They put the book aside. Probably they wouldn't get very much reading done in the near future.

"I'm not too familiar with the history behind all of it. Its origins are in Europe, with a man, a saint called Nicholas. St Nicholas, parents told their children, judges children's behaviour over the year and depending on how well they have behaved, on one day , usually the sixth of December, he brings them rewards such as small gifts, sweets or fruit, or a rod with which to punish the 'bad' children."

Odo's eyes widened. "He hurts children?"

"No! No he doesn't," they laughed. "That's what they used to tell the children, and in the very early days the children might have really been beaten, but definitely not today. Today the kids mostly just get little presents and stuff, at least in the regions where they still celebrate." Odo nodded slowly, understanding.

"And Santa Claus..."

"Is the American and, unfortunately, more famous version of him, even outside of America. He's usually depicted as an old man with white hair and a white beard wearing a red coat, red trousers and a red pointed hat, flying around the world in his flying sleigh pulled by reindeer.

Depending on the region, parents tell their children that Santa Claus comes to the house on Christmas Eve or during the night and brings the children presents, which they are allowed to open either on Christmas Eve, the twenty-fourth of December, or the morning after. As a thank you they leave him a glass of milk and biscuits, at least in America.

In England, I think they leave a glass of sherry outside. He then eats and drinks these things in the house. The gifts are probably the reason he is so popular. Although they still say that he judges their behaviour, it is hardly relevant to the number of gifts.

If you walk around anywhere on Earth at Christmas time, you can see him virtually everywhere."

They looked over at Odo, who looked plainly horrified.

"So, just to be clear," he began, looking at them from wide-open eyes. "Parents tell their kids they're being judged and stalked all year by an old man who breaks into their house at the end of the year and leaves stuff there that no one knows what's in it, which is a big security issue by the way. Much more, the children have to make sacrifices to him, in the form of alcohol and the parents make them believe that he drinks this glass of alcohol in every house and then manoeuvres a flying sleigh?"

They frowned. "I never thought about it that way, but you could put it that way, yes."

Odo only looked more disturbed than before and rose to leave with slow steps. A laugh escaped them, so loud that they almost missed him shaking his head and saying "humans".

Intro Post

Hello~! The name’s Ace or J. This blog is going to be for my attempts at writing headcanons or other x reader things. My main account is random-anime-freak. You can find all sorts of other types of fics over there that may also be up your alley.

Fic/ao3 Writing Ask Game!

Got tagged by @autisticwriterblog! Thanks, mate!

1. How many works do you have on AO3? 108 works in total, on my main account. Some more in another side account and then a few in anonymous collections.

2. What's your total AO3 word count? 232,664 words on my main account.

3. What fandoms do you write for? It appears that I have 16 fandoms listed on ao3. Currently tho, I am doing mostly SINF (Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel) stuff, and I wanna really get back into writing my niche pairs for other fandoms, like Kled x Heimerdinger for League of Legends. Or some completely new pairs, like Soval x Maxwell from Star Trek. My interests tend to bounce around, so who knows what I end up actually finishing in the end. But mostly it is just rare pairs. They intrigue me.

4. Top five fics by kudos? Oh boy, this is gonna be a blast from the past. - Number 1: Butter Cake and Pie, (The Shape Of Water fic) - Number 2: One of Those Nights (Simpsons fic) - Number 3: Infection (Pacific Rim fic I feel guilty for not finishing to this day. I really need to get it done at some point, it has been eating away at my already small storage of sanity) - Number 4: Night Of Terror (Spiderman fic) - Number 5: Movie Night For All (Spiderman fic)

5. Do you respond to comments? Always! I find it fun, I adore the interactions, and I feel it's the least I could do for people who were kind enough to leave a comment.

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? This would be much easier if I actually remembered half the stuff I have written xD But I would venture a guess that the fic I did for @three-two-six's OCs called "From Start to Finish" might be the one. It has actual death in it, after all.

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? I really can't say, looking at this list I have up for my ao3, most of these have a very happy ending. Of the ones I remember writing. No idea what goes down in half of these, to be honest.

8. Do you get hate on fics? I cannot recall ever getting any hateful comments. I write for such niche pairings that usually people are very pleasant and fun, and seemingly greatful to get fics written for their pair. Very nice folks all around.

9. Do you write smut? ... Maybe. Shh though!

10. Craziest crossover? I don't remember ever writing a crossover. They are not usually my cup of tea.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Hah, no :D I don't think they are really succesful enough to be worth stealing.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? No, again, they are not really good enough for that. Plus the fandoms and pairs are I write for tend to be quite small, and/or the original content is already in English, so most readers can read them in the original language.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? No but they do sound like fun, if you manage to find a fitting writing buddy.

14. All time favourite ship? In general, or from the ships I personally write for? Either way, I find it very difficult to pick. They come and go in waves; one month I can be obsessed with a ship, then move on to another one, then come back like half a year later, and the circle just goes on. BUT few of the most permantent ones are: - Hermann & Newton from Pacific Rim - McCoy & Spock from Star Trek - Ackroyd x Strickland from Vampyr (... does anyone else ship them? Come on, they are RIGHT THERE, enemies to lovers! ... no?) - Soval x Maxwell from Star Trek - Julian x Garak from Star Trek ... Considering I have never watched a season of any Star Trek series from start to finish, or written any fics for that fandom, it is quite heavily featured here.

15. What's a wip you want to finish but doubt you ever will? I've had this HUGE and long CONTROL fic in works, focusing on getting Dylan saved and using Hartman to do it. But I kinda lost steam on that one. Maybe when the sequel to the game comes out and I see the characters again, I get the shot in the arm that pushes me to actually finishing it.

16. What are your writing strengths? I wouldn't call it a strenght necessarily (because I am a Finn and bragging is something we can't have) but I do like to write dialog and character -focused pieces.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Discipline, to actually get ANYTHING on the paper, and in terms of writing itself, moving the characters around. You can only have so many basic "X walked across the room" sentences in one paragraph before you and your readers want to cut your fingers off.

18. Thoughts on dialogue in another language? If another language is a vital part of the character and they generally use it in the original material as well, I feel it's important to add. I usually try to find a person who actually speaks the language I wanna write, because Google Translate can be a real imp at times, and people in places like here in Tumblr tend to be very friendly when asked for help.

19. First fandom you wrote in? Star vs The Forces of Evil. Another show I never finished but managed to write stuff for anyway.

20. Favorite fic you've written? Butter Cake and Pie. It is such a niche pairing (Dmitri x Giles), for a small fandom, but I feel on technical level, it is the best fic I ever wrote. Now if only I could somehow recapture that skill, please. Please. What do I have to do?

This was really fun! But for the life of me, I cannot remember which ones of my mutuals are major fic writers :D SO if you follow me and are a fic writer, consider yourself tagged!

Two-Part Drabble Game: 35 (not wanting to be alone) + 7 “I can’t help it. You’re just really warm. Like a giant heater.” + Garak ?

{ This game is truly funny! }

>> Everyone can ask

🐊 ELIM GARAK 🐊

You did not understand why he was with you.

If Garak was pretending, he was doing it very well but it was what he did mostof his time. “Mr. Pretender” was his secret middle name, you would say.

Or maybe he was sincere for the first time in his life.

Or neither of these things.

Maybe both.

Maybe Garak didn’t want to accept that your company was really pleasant andso he lied to himself, thinking it was just a hobby, spending time with you wasjust a hobby.

Too many “maybes” anyway. Too many doubts, unspoken and wrong words. Alot of “what ifs”.

Garak was so mysterious but also so fragile, alone, scared under his hardCardassian armour.

Even the future was mysterious, fragile and scary. Just like him. Garak feared for the future of his planet, his people, sometimes even for himself.These were the most important things for the Cardassian man, nothing else, or maybe there wassomething else he was hiding, something else he cared about, after all Garak wouldn’thave been a mystery if he had been so easy to decipher.

Among all the souls of the station, Garak had chosen you to warm his night,to fill his nefarious dreams. Looking for a light in the dark, a hope even ifit was an illusion. A fake lover. The usual lies he said to himself and othersbut as long as they were beautiful lies to hear, you would have been glad tolisten to them and believe in them as well.

He always complained about how cold and inhospitable this station was.Then you, with a joking and alluring tone of voice, told him that you would beglad to warm him up, he was always welcome if he wanted some company, warmth andsomething more. You were the one he might have called.

You said it so, at least, Garak would stop complaining, since you got tiredof his complaints, or maybe you wanted to provoke him. You wanted to amaze,embarrass and confront him but it was impossible to break down the wall of icethat he had built. It was too cold, resistant and high, perhaps, it was not thestation to be too cold, and his own heart was glacial and it froze him from theinside.

At your proposal, Garak smiled in his usual mocking way, accepting yourkind invitation. Why should he have to refuse such an attractive and sweetoffer?

Your playful declaration did not turn out to be a lie since Garak was herewith you now to get warm with your body heat. He took you literally. Or maybeit was the irony of fate. Whatever it was, it was fantastic. What you wantedfor a long time.

Garak leaned closer to you, gently wrapping one arm around your neck, andthen he whispered in your ear, “I can’t help it. You’re just really warm.Like a giant heater.” His voice was velvety, almost affectionate, awhisper before going back to sleep, laying his head on your shoulder.

You chuckled and found his words childish and so tender, inadequate,certainly they did not suit to a tough man like him, a master liar, a dark spy,but perhaps he was really cold. Maybe Garak wanted to joke and be romantic, tothank you in his way for having welcomed him in your warm arms. 

Still a littletoo much “maybes” and so few answers.

Then you decided not to think about it anymore, the truth did not matteranyway.

You closed your eyes, sleeping, dreaming and forgetting about youranswers, the mysteries hidden in his heart and you just enjoyed this raremoment of peace before the life would have returned to be turbulent and cold.

DS9 imagines: Imagine dating Garak

🦎 Dating Garak would include: 🦎

• he flat out rejects you at first, then shows interest in you (maybe just to mess with you? maybe he’s lonely and bored? maybe to get Federation secrets out of you? who knows!)

• debate sessions about every topic (he’s always right)

• long discussions about literature (and why Cardassian literature is best)

• every conversation with him is a game of cat-and-mouse

• his casual racism here and there against Bajorans, Romulans, Klingons, Humans, etc.

• trying to figure out how his labyrinthine Cardassian mind works, and mostly failing

• dates where you play kotra and chess

• sometimes you ask him to go to a holosuite for a picnic, etc (nothing x-rated) but he always says no because he doesn’t want anyone to know about your relationship and he knows Quark will blab about it to everyone

• you meet up at Quark’s or the Replimat for dates sometimes, but always maintaining a public façade of “friendship” (no affectionate smiles or PDA)

• always hearing about the greatness of Cardassia and all things Cardassian

• getting him to try “Human stuff” (food, literature, drinks, music) and enjoying hearing his opinions and critiques on it

• him getting you to try “Cardassian stuff” (food, literature, drinks, music) and while he listens to your point of view he dismisses most of it with “you’re not Cardassian so you just can’t understand it”

• feeling like there’s an edge of danger and unsteadiness being with him

• it takes a long time for both of you to feel truly comfortable with one another

• at first you never know when he’s being sincere, later because you’ve spent so much time with him you learn to tell when he’s lying

• once the two of you have gotten to know one another, you find that he can be sweet and romantic, in a sincere way

• loves surprising you with a new outfit he designed especially for you

• the “forbidden love” aspect of your relationship makes things extra passionate and steamy

• he has unpredictable moods

• he pushes you away from time to time (sad!)

• when he wants to push you away, he waffles between “stay away, I’ve done terrible things and I’ll only corrupt you” and “how could I, a Cardassian, really want a simple-minded Human like you?”

• unsolicited fashion advice

• intense paranoia

• daddy issues

• being sworn to secrecy about your relationship

• lies, lots of lies- big lies, small lies, silly lies, pointless lies- but after a few months you’re able to tell what’s true and what isn’t

• you’ve never met anyone like him before

• he always has to have the last word in every conversation

Star Trek: DS9 characters x male reader

Scenarios based on oneliners, and quotes from my old, discarded fanfics… Part 1

{My original lines will be a different colour and no, I’m not giving you any of the original context–]

[All of these can be perceived as romantic, platonic, or familial etc, etc, everything is up to you.]

🚫female-aligned people DNI🚫

[If any of these are out of character, I’m sorry. I don’t know what I’m doing ;-;]

-----

1 - *Quark, Odo, and Kira fighting at the bar*

Kira: “We found you scamming your customers.”

Quark: “Who said I was? I–”

Odo: “You have a history of scamming and these actions will no longer be tolerated.”

Kira: “So, either give back the money and refund all these people or come with us.”

Quark: “You mean, I can choose?”

Kira: “Listen here, you little bitch–”

Quark: “Seriously? Can you get more creative with the names? You’ve called me a bitch three times. Where’s the variety?"

*Kira straight up sucker punches Quark square in the face*

Y/N, in the background: “GodDAMN–”

2 - *Y/N to Dukat, at literally any point, any time they ever meet*

Y/N: “If you weren’t a disgusting motherfucker, I’d be sorry for what I’m about to do. But you are one, so I have no regrets.”

Dukat: “Wait, what?--”

*Dukat gets absolutely destroyed by Y/N and his boots (Basically, he gets repeatedly kicked in the ribs in a hallway somewhere-)*

Sisko, appearing out of nowhere: “That’s some good shit, right there.”

3 - *Bashir, narrating to himself, just minding his own business*

Bashir: “I made breakfast… Well, I poured cereal into a bowl and ate it, not really ‘making’ it, really…”

*Bashir, cereal bowl in hand, looks up to find Y/N staring at him from the couch*

Y/N: “… Girl, what is you doing??”

4 - [Season One] [Y/N is a teenager just like Jake and Nog were in that season]

*Jake, and Y/N taking Nog somewhere to teach him how to read*

Nog: “Where exactly are you taking me?”

Jake: “Somewhere secret.”

Nog: “You’re not going to teach me in public are you? That’s kind of embarrassing.”

Jake: "It's a secret place, isn't it? If it was in public, it wouldn't be secret, would it?"

Nog: “…”

Y/N: “Makes sense to me.”

5 - O’Brien: “Y/N, you could just give me the present. I could just give it to Julian for you.”

Y/N: “No, I want to do it myself…”

O’Brien: “At this rate, you’ll never give it to him.”

Y/N: “I’m trying, okay? It’s just… I never have the right opportunity…”

O’Brien: “It’s been so long, I might as well break into your quarters and get it, myself.”

Y/N: “You break into my quarters, I’m going to break your nose.”

O’Brien: “Bro, chill–”

6 - *Y/N picking up Bashir from the Infirmary for lunch*

Bashir: “I’ll be with you in a second, let me just sort this out.”

*Y/N nodded and walked closer to Bashir to see what he was doing*

Bashir: “I’m sorry this is taking so long, I can’t seem to find a specific…”

*Bashir trails off in concentration and Y/N looks at the mess of his database*

Y/N: “Oh, darling, we need to get you a filing system.”

Bashir, close to tears: “I know ;-;”

7 - *Sisko and Dax talking about introducing Y/N to Garak*

Sisko: “Do you think they’ll get along?”

Dax: “I’m not sure. Garak’s quite welcoming and open and all, but he has some rather strange tendencies. And Y/N… He’s Y/N. Lovely man, but… Y’know…”

Sisko: “I see what you mean.”

Dax: “Well, one thing’s for certain.”

Sisko: “What’s that?”

Dax: “Their arguments are going to be absolutely fantastic.”

Sisko, who knows that Cardassian’s flirt by arguing: “You what?--”

8 - *Non-Starfleet Y/N trying to get a job at Quark’s*

Y/N: “Quark, I need a job. I have to pay a debt.”

Quark: “A debt to who?”

Y/N: “An academy on Bajor.”

Quark: “Ah, student loans. Yeah, good luck with that.”

Y/N: “I know you won’t pay me much, but I’m working like three different jobs right now.”

Quark, looking Y/N up and down: “I see that you’re desperate.”

Y/N: “You think?”

Quark, sighing: “I could do with another waiter.”

Y/N: “Don’t trust me with the food, I could poison someone.”

Quark: “… Accidentally or intentionally?”

Y/N, shrugging almost too casually: “Depends on who it’s for.”

Quark, now not knowing how to feel: “… I’m scared if I say ‘no’, I’m going to get shot.”

9 - *Worf, training Y/N for combat in the holosuite*

Y/N: “Can we load in more enemies?”

Worf: “Y/N, we’ve been at this for three hours. You almost passed out 20 minutes ago.”

Y/N: “How am I supposed to get better if I don’t train?”

Worf: “If we do another round with more enemies, you’re probably going to die.”

Y/N: “What’s a little peril?”

Worf, staring at him, confused and concerned: “… You are strange.”

10 - *Keiko’s going on a short trip and has left Molly with her husband and his two friends, Bashir and Y/N*

O’Brien: “Have you got everything?”

Keiko: “Yes, I do. But have you got everything?”

O’Brien, nodding to Bashir and Y/N, who were just standing there like the clueless idiots they were: “With their help, we should be just fine.”

Keiko, looking at them all: “Let’s hope you will be…”

O’Brien: “Go on, or you’ll miss the shuttle.”

Keiko: “Alright, alright. Goodbye, Molly!”

Molly: “Bye-bye :)”

Y/N: “Have fun, Keiko!”

*Keiko walks out of view and Bashir looks around*

Bashir: “So, uh… You want to go the holosuite and play the pirates simulation?”

Y/N: “Julian, we have a babysitting job to do. We can’t just leave Miles here on his own.”

Bashir: “Y/N… That’s his daughter, I think he can take care of her just fine.”

Y/N: “I wasn’t talking about Molly.”

O’Brien: “Oh, you mother fu–”

Molly, from across the room: “Daddy! Watch your language!”

O’Brien: “… She learned that from Keiko.”

*Suddenly, the quarter’s doors opened to reveal Keiko*

Keiko, pointing a finger at O’Brien: “And don’t forget to water the plants while I’m gone! Last time I left, I came back and my ivy was dead.”

*With that, she was gone*

Y/N: “Well… We’ll leave you to it.”

Bashir: “Good luck.”

*They both start walking out*

O’Brien: “Guys, please–” -----

Hope you enjoyed it. I had fun remembering old fics and reading the stuff I used to come up with.

Hopefully, got the characterization right.

Yeah... So, that was that.

See you next time :)

[deepspacedukat]

Alrighty, @android-boyfriends​, this is 2 + 10 For Garak! 🖤 The way that these 2 struck me made me wanna put them in the same drabble. I hope that’s alright, fren! Based on prompts from this post. Cross-posted to AO3 here.

2. “Wait a minute. Are you jealous?” + 10. “I’ve seen the way you look at me when you think I don’t notice.” + Garak

Deflection

Elim Garak (ST:DS9) x Reader

[A/N: Yeah, I know I’ve touched on the beef between Garak and Dukat before, but it’s fun to write about so... *shrugs* ]

Warnings: This is fluff, but there’s mild jealousy. Interspecies kiss, human/Cardassian kiss, pda, pre-relationship fluff.

~*~

“Will I see you at the reception later, Ensign?” Dukat asked, still leaning obnoxiously on my table as I tried to eat my lunch at the Replimat.

“I haven’t decided if I’m going yet.” I figured a diplomatic answer would be less inflammatory than telling him to sling his hook elsewhere. It was all I could do to keep from rolling my eyes at the way he leaned in a little closer.

“Well, I would be most gratified to see you there,” he said before finally leaving me in peace to finish my food. No sooner had I let out a sigh of relief than I was joined at my table by a familiar, welcome face.

“Are you alright, my dear?” Garak asked moving his chair closer to mine. “I thought that posturing fool would never leave.”

An involuntary huff of laughter gusted out of me before I could stop it.

“I’m fine, Garak, I promise. He does bluster quite profusely, doesn’t he?” I mused taking a sip of my drink.

“Yes. The pompous idiot. What makes him think he has the right to bother you of all people?” He grumbled, looking decidedly irritated. The Cardassian slid his chair just a little bit closer to me, and I was struck by a thought I’d only considered a few times before.

“Wait a minute. Garak, are you jealous?” The Cardassian’s eyes widened as they met mine.

“I don’t know what you mean. What reason would I have to be jealous of Dukat?” He asked shifting in his seat, but he’d already told me enough by his deflection. 

“Well, he does tend to seek me out for his flirtations despite the fact that you’ve been doing the same for months,” I answered as confidently as my inference would allow. Garak’s eyes darted away from mine and he let out a quiet laugh. “I’ve seen the way you look at me when you think I don’t notice.”

“Ridiculous,” he scoffed.

“Then I guess you won’t mind if I go to the reception as Dukat’s plus one,” I replied as I stood and made to leave. Before I took a single step, I felt a hand tug me off-balance. When I landed in Garak’s lap and his lips slanted hungrily over mine, it was clear that I wouldn’t be going anywhere but to Garak’s quarters tonight.
