(I hadn’t done one of these in a long time!)
Long before it was revealed that you were genetically “enhanced,” I recognized in you an intelligence, a capacity for understanding that I found lacking in other humans. As much as the subject irritates you, you have not been so much genetically enhanced as “arranged.”
The people who did this to you had specific reasons, which you have long since outgrown. And having assimilated these changes you’ve accommodated yourself to this “arrangement” according to the demands of your life. For me, this means that in a sense you are more Cardassian than human. Which is why I am able to share this document with you … and why I sat down to lunch with you in the first place.
Before you cringe with horror at the thought of being a Cardassian, let me give you an example. Human memory is selective and linear. Simply put, a human remembers the best of times in progressive order, beginning with earliest childhood. The rosy memories are only challenged by nightmares.
A Cardassian remembers everything on every level all the time. For us, past and present are not neatly separated. We live with everything in the moment—including the nightmares. And so do you.
To a human this would be chaotic, unbearable. For us it’s just the way it is.

A Deep Dish Nine G/B commission from cosmictuesdays, who actually gave me the pairing, medium, price, and an mp3, and told me to go forth and let the rest of it be a surprise! This is the result of a request to work with I 4 U U 4 Me and Julian/Elim~
Glasses!Ponytail!Elim were not part of the original request, but they are here regardless!

This was a sketch commission from bmouse for Julian to meet Mila after the war because honestly it’s terrible that it can’t happen and I am NOT happy!
And then I just did a little bonus because I seriously feel like Garak sneaking into people’s rooms while they’re sleeping was one of those things Mila was referring to when she mentioned him getting into trouble a lot as a kid.
“I know that we have grown apart and that’s as it should be. We learn what we can from certain people, then we move on after we’ve taken what we need. When we learn nothing new about ourselves in a relationship that’s when the relationship is over. Or it’s over the moment when we’re afraid to learn something new about ourselves.”
