why was bashir a closeted homosexual in the 23rd century? like dude it's fine you can relax. actually wait the tense here is kinda funny. i used past tense because ds9 is from the 90s and i watched it in 2021 so in both cases it's from the past in my view. but when talking about a text you speak in the present: why IS bashir a closeted homosexual in the 23rd century? but the statement is half about how ds9 takes place in the scifi future: why WILL bashir be a closeted homosexual in the 23rd century?

Winter gift exchange!
Thank you @startrekwintergiftexchange for hosting this. I ended up making a gift for @lipstickonmylabcoat with the prompt being "Garak and Bashir on Cardassia Prime". I've recieved some really fun art from @britishbilliee and their brother (Thank you again, I love the art)!! Without further ado!
Rambling below!
I'll be the first to admit that the rendering is,, rough to say at least, but I'm still very happy I made this. It's definitely a result of a combination of 'ideas above artist's skill level', messy painting style and lack of patience lol. The two Cardassians on the left side were meant to be some students in uniform, but I didn't really give them justice here. I'm starting to enjoy drawing architecture, but rendering it is very difficult for me. Also this is meant to be like a good ten years after canon or really any amount of time, that would make it possible for the city to look like it does in the drawing again. Also also!! Sorry for the spam :)

I'm watching DS9 for the first time and I have one really big problem with it: see, there's this guy, Garak, and the issue is he's not in every single scene.

people in the 90s who hated julian simply didn’t understand him. he’s annoying. he cosplays. he makes his friends cosplay with him. he talks to his stuffed animals. he wanders the halls of the station like a dazed victorian waif instead of doing his job. hes in a psychosexual relationship with a war criminal who runs the local joanns fabrics. he’s the kind of guy that fights off fifteen kids at target for the last 3 foot tall bluey plushie. the haters are simply blind to his inimitable wet cat swag

[id: 8 gifs from season 3, episode 14 “heart of stone” from the tv series “star trek: deep space nine”, the gifs show julian bashir, and benjamin sisko walking through the promenade.
1st, 2nd gif: julian and sisko are walking in tandem, sisko asks “I see you've put in a request to reassign Ensign Vilix'pran from cargo inspection.” julian takes a breath before replying, “I think that would be best. Given his condition, I don't want him coming into contact with any hazardous materials.”
3rd & 4th gif: sisko asks, “his condition?” and julian elaborates, “vilix'pran is budding. his buds are undergoing individuation in just over a month.” sisko is elated with the realisation, “you mean, he's pregnant.” julian confirms, “twins.” “ah. reassignment granted.”
5th gif: “i'll have to make sure I offer my congratulations to the ensign the next time i see him.“ sisko continues.
6th & 7th gif: "well, o'brien and i are throwing him a baby shower in a couple of days. i think it would mean a lot to him if you were there.” julian informs sisko. “are you getting him anything?” sisko asks, “o'brien's building him a hatchling pond and i've put an order in with garak for some new baby clothes.”
8th gif: sisko and julian come to a pause. "count me in.” sisko tells julian and claps him on his shoulder, “aye, sir.” sisko walks away with a smile, he speaks to himself, “ensign pran... hmm.” /id end]
