Kira: Don’t you ever touch me again. 

Rusot: I guess I hit a nerve.

Kira: No, this (Kira presses her arm around his neck) is hitting a nerve. Stop pushing me or I’ll make you realise just how many nerves you have in that miserable body. 

(Kira lets Rusot go)

Rusot: When this is all over and the Dominion is defeated 

Kira: You won’t have any trouble finding me.

You can always count on Garak to tell you the important stuff

I want to know you the way you really are.

Especially the Lies...: sophiagratia: Guys. The thing about early DS9 is that I cannot deal...

sophiagratia:

Guys. The thing about early DS9 is that I cannot deal with how Kira is twenty-six years old.

And how she doesn’t know how to do anything or how to be in the world and she makes mistake after mistake after mistake after mistake because nothing makes the kind of sense she is used to and she is twenty-six years old and has no frame for the world but the immediate frame of violent resistance she grew up with and she does absolutely everything wrong, over and over, and still her peers and her commanding officer and her subordinates let her be herself and let her learn and let her have her own set of feelings even when they don’t make sense and they trust and respect her for it.

And she is twenty-six years old.

 #AND THIS SHOW UNDERSTANDS ABOUT FEROCITY AND FEELING #AND HOW YOU HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO BE IN THE WORLD #AND HOW THAT IS ALL TO THE GOOD #now if you’ll excuse me #i’m going to go cry about sisko and kira #and how he trusts her #over and over #even when she’s wrong #and how she gets to be wrong #and still be a hero #and #AUGH #SHOW

DAX I can’t believe you did that.
KIRA He didn’t leave me any choice.
BASHIR What did she do?
DAX She knocked out Lancelot.
KIRA He kissed me.
DAX He’s supposed to kiss you.
KIRA But I was playing a married woman.
BASHIR Lieutenant Commander Worf, this is Lieutenant Commander Jadzia Dax, and Major Kira Nerys, our first officer.
WORF (to Kira) Nice hat.
KIRA (defensive) I don’t always dress like this. We were in the holosuite…
WORF So I gathered. (turns to Dax) You used to be Curzon Dax.
DAX That’s right. (smiling) And I don’t usually dress like this either.
WORF Curzon’s name is an honored one among my people.
DAX (mischievous, in Klingon) Louk, a jeek CHIM-ta law. (Yeah, but I’m a lot better looking than he was.)

holosuitebuddies:

Kira Nerys is so fierce

she fought in a fucking resistance movement as a child and was partly responsible for liberating her entire planet and even acknowledged that she personally killed a shitload of people

but when she smiles

I mean

if you are not emotionally crippled by her smile you need to check your pulse
