kira nerys, a menace to society. ( one little ship // 6x14 )
Kira’s role in the teaser of this episode was written specifically to act as a surrogate for the audience; according to Ronald D. Moore, “It is an absurd premise, and Kira’s reaction acknowledges that. It’s like a signal to the audience: ‘This is kinda silly folks, and we know it’s kinda silly, but try to run with us on this one’.”
Have some gay aliens ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
4.06 Starship DownKIRA: What am I doing? I’m supposed to keep you awake, not bore you to tears. I’m sorry. I don’t know why this is so hard for me. All I have to do is talk to you. I mean, what do we usually talk about?
SISKO: We talk about work.
KIRA: You’re right. That is what we usually talk about. Even when we’re not working. I get the feeling it’s not that way between you and Dax, or you and Chief O'Brien. But then, you’re not a revered figure in their religions. I know you don’t like it when I talk about you as the Emissary, but that’s how I think of you. And maybe that’s why sometimes it’s hard for me to relax around you.
SISKO: Nerys?
KIRA: Yes, sir?
SISKO: Tell me a story.
