Season 1 Bashir: This is BRILLIANT, gonna practice RUGGED FRONTIER MEDICINE and have ADVENTURES and do THRILLING HEROICS and PULL MORE TAIL THAN JAMES T. KIRK
Season 4 Bashir: Have been officially dumped by everything in a skirt on the station. Adventures are scary. Major Kira is scary. Captain Sisko’s shiny bald head is scary. Also am fairly certain I want to fuck a lizard.

FK: Yeah.
ELM: I’d feel bad. And I never feel that way when I’m reading or writing fanfiction about, you know, about…
I’ve recently gotten into Hockey RPF, so I have thoughts.
I have no illusions that the people I read about (or listen to someone read about, I’ve been on a big podfic kick lately) act at all like their RPF personas.
