Star Trek: DS9 - More ridiculous fluff
Mar. 10th, 2013 03:18 pmTitle: The Death of Dignity
Fandom: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Genre: Fluff
Rating & Warnings: PG (for fail!seduction oh Julian)
Words: 1768
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
Summary: Dr. Bashir and Garak learn that the ideals of masculine beauty are not standard across their species and experience the loss of the illusion of constant attractiveness.
Author's Notes: I've been reading A Stich In Time by Andrew Robinson lately--the post-series book that Garak's actor wrote to tie up his character's loose ends. Seeing that it's as heartbreaking as hell, I've been writing fluff for these two pretty much nonstop.
This is just a bit of silliness flavoured with my fascination with species differences, the way politics affect fashion, and how certain words and expressions hang on long after they're obsolete ("batten down the hatches," anyone?). Someday, I'll actually post one of my serious projects for DS9, but that day is not today.
Additional disclaimer: I am not an artist. I just couldn't get the image of my head (it actually turned up first and the fic came after), so have an illustrated fanfic à la Lady Yate-Xel.
( Right now, 'dishevelled' barely did justice to the state of Garak's hair. )
