Of course, if someone wanted to write something *for* me, I wouldn't complain.
Hmm... say this again in late May, and maybe we could work a little something out.
You're right. He's evil. But you should see him naked. I mean really!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
You go down to Quark's and pay money for food from the same replicator system that you have in your room? His ambience is that good?
That's how bars work, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Your law firm might give you free alcohol. I still have to pay for the stuff I drink at home. If I go to a bar, along with ambience, I also get access to ingredients I might not want to buy for home, plus expertise in mixing drinks.
Gimme a replicator? Free any food or drink any time? So much less eating and drinking out.

They don't like give us a litre of Smirnoff to take home!
Well, the copy people do. But that's different.
But cocktails here are frequently over $10. It's all ambience. If the dude has got the only bar on the ship, it's a captive audience.

I think Odo might be my favorite character of the lot.
Oh, I think one of my favorite parts of DS9 was the Quark & Odo Show. Plus Rom and Nag. And the Miles and Keiko Show.
Okay, I frelling loved all of it. But the Cardassian characters were particularly enjoyable. I loved the ep when they accidentally set off an old Cardie security program that thought the Bajoran slaves were uprising, and Gul Dukat showed up to for the stay and gloat thing, only to have it bite him on the ass.
Ummm... I hope that's not too spoilery for you, Vonnie.

It's best not to dwell to much on Trek economics - that way lies madness.
Yeah, dwell on the science instead, it's much less prone to the crazy making.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Nah, Sean. That sounds like every third episode I watched. Not to say I dislike that facet of the show--the writers set up the conflict between the Cardassians and the Bajorans very well from the get-go. "Duet" was a particular favourite of mine out of the episodes I've seen thus far. (Good old Quentin. Harris Yulin rocks.)
Wait a minute. Is that the one about the Cardassian war orphan who was adopted by a Bajoran? I saw that one. Goooood episode. Lots of crafty Garak-ness.

I'm cross-posting this w/WX: Zap2it has an article about Mutant X that suggests that perhaps next year Shalimar may not be back. Unless, I read this more hopefully than others.

Vonnie - you are in for such a treat. Garak and Gul Dukat both had pretty amazing story arcs over the course of 7 seasons. Most of the characters went through some significant changes; most of them were interesting.
Though the arcy-ness doesn't really kick in until season 2 or 3. I was so glad at least one Trek show got to throw away the Roddenberry show bible.

I'm getting behind on Stargate: I still have 2 unwatched episodes on the Tivo, and it'll be recording more tonight. This is difficult.
But I did finally see the episode where Daniel ascended. Could the ending have been any more subtexty?
My viewing may have been colored by the fact that I read a story called Reveille yesterday, which Vonnie recced, which was both hot and believable Daniel/Jack. Mmmm, the fabulous "aliens made us have sex!" trope. Much superior to the XF version (considered a classic by many), which is icky and includes rape scenes. Bleah.
