Watching "The Wire"

[Quick explanation: Every Sunday, a tumblr friend of mine gets sci-fi fans together and we geek out about Star Trek. Last night was interesting because we watched the "The Wire", and two of the people had never seen DS9 before were pretty sure about the whole Garak/Bashir thing within like... the first five minutes.]

Anyway, without further ado, here's the best of our livestream:

Scene: Garak and Bashir go out to lunch. They get in a fight
about his health
.
TheHanSoloist: It's because he's in love! Clearly.
Boom: OMG Han, look at you going all Sherlock on this shit.
Scene: Garak gets drunk and Bashir
is called to take him home.
TheHanSoloist: Oh my.

Scene: Garak faints after resisting Bashir's attempt to take
him to the infirmary.
Boom: I don't think this is how his seduction plan was supposed to go.
BotheringTrees: Well we all have those days.
Boom: lol. True. It's always embarrassing when you faint after hitting on someone.

Scene: Bashir get pissy about Garak
asking Quark  for help over him.
geeksaurus: Bashir is in a jealous rage.
BotheringTrees: Bashir is hot in his rage.

Scene: Garak collapses after taking happy drugs.
Boom: You've almost got him to bed. Just a few more inches, dude.

Scene: Garak explains what is happening to him.
geeksaurus: Wait... is Garak wearing leopard spots?
TheHanSoloist: Leopard print and a doctor in his room by the bed? aww yeah.
BotheringTrees: Punishment device? Kinky.
Boom: Garak's like, I can think of a few ways for you to stimulate pleasure.
BotheringTrees: Immune to pain means no need for a safety word.

Scene: Bashir refuses to let Garak die even after hearing
Garak's tale of willful murder.
TheHanSoloist: kiss kiss kiss

Scene: Garak does not go cold turkey very well.
TheHanSoloist: He meant to say "touch me", not "don't".

Scene: Garak and Bashir roll around on the floor,
and much testosterone is involved.
Boom: lol @ classic Cardassian hate!flirting.
BotheringTrees: They like to wrestle.
Boom: How sweet. He doesn't want to hurt him.

Scene: Garak tells another lie.
BotheringTrees: Let's think. What's closer than brothers?
Boom: Siamese fuck buddies?
BotheringTrees: Hahahaha!
Scene: Upon meeting Bashir, Tain offers him a drink.
geeksaurus: I swear that 70% of the drinks in this show are blue.
BotheringTrees: They're biased to science. I guess that department gets drunk the most.
TheHanSoloist: Blue is the drink of the future.
Boom: Hooray for vodka and Kool-aid then!

Scene: Tain tells Bashir how much he hates Garak.
Because of this, he gives Bashir the information he needs
to save the dying Cardassian.
Boom: And now Bashir meets the dad.
TheHanSoloist: Is he gonna ask for permission to wed Garak?
Boom: This relationship is getting super serious.
geeksaurus: You could say that its.... already out of this world.
BotheringTrees: Ba dum che!
Boom: Does Bashir even know that Tain is the most powerful man in the quadrant, and kills for seemingly no reason?
TheHanSoloist: He doesn't care. He's being brave for love.
geeksaurus: Love conquers all quadrants.
Boom: I like to think of Tain's speech at the end is him giving permission.

Scene: The happy couple are reunited at lunch once again.


TheHanSoloist: In HIS bed.
Boom: "Why would I be in bed if you're not there?"
geeksaurus: haha
Boom: Wow. One brain, Han. One brain.
TheHanSoloist: We're like Bashir and Garak.
BotheringTrees: You're siamese fuck buddies?
