STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE (1993-1999)
“Emissary, Part. 1” (1.01)

It was an extremely cool and weird start to a new star trek to have the new captain (technically Sisko is a commander but who cares) be like “I know you didn’t mean to but you killed my wife >:(”

KIRA: What am I doing? I’m supposed to keep you awake, not bore you to tears. I’m sorry. I don’t know why this is so hard for me. All I have to do is talk to you. I mean, what do we usually talk about?
SISKO: We talk about work.
KIRA: You’re right. That is what we usually talk about. Even when we’re not working. I get the feeling it’s not that way between you and Dax, or you and Chief O'Brien. But then, you’re not a revered figure in their religions. I know you don’t like it when I talk about you as the Emissary, but that’s how I think of you. And maybe that’s why sometimes it’s hard for me to relax around you.
SISKO: Nerys?
KIRA: Yes, sir?
SISKO: Tell me a story.
