what they dont tell you about adulthood is that it’s startlingly easy to go long periods of time without having any fun at all not even a little bit. btw this causes ur brain to try to kill you with knives and hammers.

Okay, this post got me thinking about how so many DS9 episodes have a Turbolift Conversation, and how wildly they ping-pong between torrid gossip and Galaxy Altering Espionage. Now I desperately want an episode that only takes place in the turbolift. There is clearly a regular A plot and B plot happening, but we only jump into those plots when they enter the turbolift. Featuring iconic scenes such as:

  • Kira and Dax talking about their sex lives
  • Odo and Sisko discussing security for Kai Winn’s visit
  • Bashir and O’Brien talking about their sex lives
  • Worf absent-mindedly singing Klingon opera
  • Jake and Nog plotting Shenanigans that Definitely Won’t Interfere with the Kai’s Visit
  • Garak talks to Extra:  unclear if espionage or just a really tense promenade shopkeeper’s rivalry
  • Kira and Odo enter mid Kira rant, leave before rant concludes.
  • Sisko calls for a halt and silently facepalms in his hands for 2 minutes
  • Kai Winn and Bareil have Ominous Conversation about the Future of Bajor
  • Is this Flirting or Station Business?: Odo and Quark edition.
  • Rom and Leeta make-out
  • Wait, What’s Weyoun Doing Here?
  • Jake and Nog enter lift, furious and covered in mysterious syrup.  Jake tries to speak, but Nog cuts him off:  “Jake, for the sake of our friendship, this never happened.”
  • Uh Oh, That Rando That Keeps Entering the Lift is a Changeling
  • Kira, O’Brien, Dax, and Worf have dramatic techno-babble conversation about fixing the tetrion emitters before the countdown concludes, or the station will be taken over by pah’wraiths.  Kira has a giant phaser.  O’Brien is dressed like a WW1 soldier.  Worf is carrying a badly injured Molly O’Brien.
  • Sisko appears in a flash of golden divine light and gives dramatic non sequitur speech to a wall panel. Everyone agrees it is some of Brooks’ best acting, but no one knows what prompted it.
  • Is This Flirting or Station Business?: Garak and Bashir edition. Bonus points if Bashir is pinned to the wall.
  • Kai Winn enters the lift, outraged and covered in syrup.
  • Jake and Nog enter the lift, covered in syrup and grinning ear to ear.
  • Quark and Morn get stuck in the turbolift.  Morn opens his mouth. Cue end credits.

lol, thank you! Apparently the secret to writing fanfic is PROMISING yourself you are going to work instead of getting on AO3, then outlining a fic in a Tumblr post. XD
