Ronald D. Moore about the first draft of episode 6x22 - “Valiant” (via startrekds9)
They literally had to rewrite an entire episode because Kira’s badassery level was too high for the plot.

“Have you ever had a moment of pure clarity? A moment when the truth seemed to leap up and grab you by the throat?”

I meant to post this for femslash February, but I was lazy. Also, Fallout 3 happened.
So anyway, here’s a sketch of Jadzia Dax and Kira Nerys that I coloured.
I actually really like Winn. Not because she’s a great person, but because she is a believable, flawed person. I see a lot of my own struggles in her. I know what it’s like to pretend to be the kind of person you want to be, but all the while you keep falling further away from what you are trying to reach, and you don’t know why. I think there’s something beautifully human about her character arch, something more important than the polished examples of courage and righteous struggle we see in the show’s main characters.
