Inspired by @teacuptribbles good wholesome post. Who doesn’t love a good pirate adventure?
In which Dukat’s been a bit of a shit dad, so the team™ decide to take Ziyal to the holosuite for a pirate adventure. In a twist, Kira and Garak really get into the zone for Ziyal’s sake (they are not in fact enjoying themselves), and Julian stands around complaining about the new costume that Garak has slaved over for days. No, okay. He is the supportive dork nerding out over everything happening around him, explaining every little plot detail to Ziyal, Garak and Kira until he’s blue in the face. Jadzia simplifies everything once Julian falls down one too many rabbit holes. And despite the fact that she’s nearing 20, Ziyal actually gets to be a child for once, and feel the holographic sea breeze on her face.
"Have you ever heard of the phrase 'Keeping your cards close to your chest'?"
"Why no! Do enlighten me."
"It's a Human idiom. It refers to what one does in a game of Poker, when they want to keep their cards secret, they play them close to their chest so no one else can see the hand they possess."
"Ah, and it's some kind of metaphor for hiding the truth, I take it?"
"And how did you come to the conclusion I was talking of that my dear Mister Garak?"
"My dear doctor, was there ever such a time we didn't discuss this?"
