#this is such a siskoshir scene though; it would actually make sense if there were Big Feels going on

[walkingstackofbooks]

I need people's thoughts on this scene from Waltz because it feels like Julian's done such a massive turnaround from "we need to surrender to the Dominion to save 9 billion lives" to "we need to save Captain Sisko even if we fail to protect 30 thousand troops" and I'm going mad for it.

BASHIR: I couldn't understand a word Kira said. Too much interference. Looks to me like we're on our own. DAX: I could understood what she was trying to say. BASHIR: What about you, Chief? Did you understand? O'BRIEN: No, I couldn't understand a word. DAX: Well it doesn't really matter what we think. Commander Worf is captain here. WORF: We all know what Major Kira's orders were. It would be dishonourable to ignore them. BASHIR: You will forgive me if I don't consider your honour to be worth Captain Sisko's life. WORF: You may leave the bridge, Doctor.

Like, he is going so hard here, and I wouldn't have said he was the closest to Sisko. Just, what's going on with him?
