Touch His Tit Tuesday DS9 edition

TNG | 5.05

A bitey neck kiss for @schattengestalt <3. The bite marks were my idea, I couldn't resist :D.

If you like my stuff and want to support me: https://ko-fi.com/inessketches <3 Thank you!

Paul Wesley gets a lot of shit for not looking much like Shatner’s Kirk (even though he’s got the mannerisms down perfectly), which seems unfair considering he looks exactly like TAS Kirk

A recent commission of Worf’s son, Alexander Rozhenko, in a custom Starfleet uniform that reflects his Cossack heritage ✨

As someone with Tatar Cossack roots myself, this was such a blast to work on! I love when commissions let me get creative with all the details :)

Commissions are now open indefinitely, btw, so feel free to reach out if you’ve got an idea you’d like to bring to life!

This version is downscaled and watermarked at the client’s request. Please don’t copy to other sites.

Love that Bashir gives "head empty" vibes on account of "too many thoughts"

STRANGE NEW WORLDS ― S3 TEASER TRAILER P1

I modified a Supernatural meme

I had a lot of fun drawing out this little sequence from @alphacygni-8‘s Especially the Lies, though perhaps it’s a little bit spoilery!

Even the fiercest warrior needs a good skincare routine.

Why is this the cutest thing I've read??? I was going to link to the original post but it's been taken down, so it seems like they've found their home 💖

Elim Garak Personal Information

Star Trek Monthly, May 1996

congratulations to voyager for portraying the first gay teenager homophobic parent relationship through 2 middle aged guys played by the same guy at the same time

format:

We are sharing some of our favourite gifs each day this month for Antifa International’s fifth anniversary. Today: Nazi monuments being destroyed after the defeat of Nazi Germany.

One reason In the Pale Moonlight lands so well is that the show plants the seeds early on for Garak representing a sort of “out” for Sisko when he has to circumvent official procedures. There’s the bit in The Search where a holographic mental projection of Garak shows up to flirt with Sisko and enable his rebellion against Starfleet, and then The Way of the Warrior has the part where they’re wondering what to do about the Klingon invasion fleet headed to Cardassia and Sisko says “we need a third option” and it immediately cuts to Garak. In the Pale Moonlight picks those threads of Garak being someone Sisko leans on when he needs to take a more underhanded approach (and someone who, similarly to Quark, Sisko can put pressure on with no repercussions).

But Garak’s perspective on it is interesting, because of how much his dynamic with Sisko reflects the dynamic he used to have with Tain. There’s that part in The Wire where Tain tells Bashir “I never had to order Garak to do anything… that’s what made him special” and that’s pretty much exactly how Garak behaves with Sisko in this episode. He does what he does best - being maximally useful to someone more powerful and anticipating everything they want and need, taking an intention and shaping it into a workable plan with little direction. He comes up with the entire scheme pretty much on his own and puts it into play with minimal participation from Sisko save things he needs official sanction for, and anticipates all contingencies and variables beforehand. And then of course sees to it that the plan is carried out, in a way that Sisko would never sanction but that he knows that on some level Sisko wants - or rather, that Sisko wants the outcome while being spared having to order Garak to take the measures to see it through.

Garak molds himself into the role Sisko sees him as playing in a way that’s similar to how he made himself into the person Tain wanted him to be - in that case, as Garak puts it, he was a “reflection” of Tain himself. Except with Tain, that process involved Garak shaping himself to embody the values that Tain espoused, and expunging the parts of himself that Tain abhorred, namely weakness and sentiment. And with Sisko, Garak reflects the parts of Sisko that Sisko doesn’t want to face and wants to shunt off onto someone else. And that plays out not only re: Sisko’s willingness to make moral sacrifices for the greater good, but even just on a smaller scale - there’s the part where Sisko snaps and threatens Forgery Guy, and Garak steps up with that truly terrifying smile and promises to drop in on Forgery Guy to “say hello”. Just playing the role of Sisko’s Evil Henchman to perfection, and thus enabling Sisko’s loss of control and his cruel streak. He’s very subservient to Sisko throughout the episode! But it’s through that subservience that he actually gets the upper hand on Sisko, solely by reflecting his darker side at him and getting in that jab about Sisko’s self respect being sacrificed. It’s so utterly delicious.

Rewatching DS9 and I forgot how annoying Bashir was at first. Man both masked and masc-ed too close to the sun. I would die for him.

The irony is that with Star Trek not directly talking about the genitals of aliens to stay family-friendly, they inadvertently left the door open to our imaginations

Bashir in a skant for your Bashir in a skant needs

LMAOOOOO IM LISTING TO THE GARAK BOOK RIGHT NOW AND IT'S JUST HIM TRAMA DUMPING TO BASHIR FOR 20 HOURS STRAIGHT... I can't stop picturing Bashir listening to all of Garaks messages like:

Here is Garak subtly trying to make his strategic exit while trying to torture you by staring at you with his spooky blue eyes.

Does Dr. Julian Bashir from Star Trek DS9 eat pussy?

Star Trek Universe textbooks

so the other day I started thinking about starfleet academy and the kind of……e-textbooks bones would have there….because I…think about these things and basically I got kind of carried away?? also I am like 99% sure that mccoy’s thesis was over the management of aviophobia I mean come on

what people flagrantly misunderstand about culturally iconic ‘logicians’ like spock and sherlock holmes is that they are fuckinggggg annoying. like you canNOT write for nor adapt either of these characters properly without understanding that they are admirable in many ways, yes, but they are repeatedly and gleefully, ON PURPOSE, fucking massive nuisances to literally every sane individual around them, all the time. they love bothering people, they LOVE it, it makes them SO HAPPY, and THAT, not their brilliance, is what makes them the best. spocks a BITCH
