me when the emotionally repressed character is revealed to have had something happen in their childhood that was completely out of their control but changed them in a way they can never come back from
I've felt inspired by how little space Kira and Dax have when they're in ops. Also assertive Kira gaining a height advantage by making Dax sit down 10/10
[Image ID: A page of digital sketches featuring Kira Nerys and Jadzia Dax from Star Trek Deep Space 9. In the top left corner is a portrait of Jadzia. She's looking up and to the left. She's wearing her usual uniform. Beneath her is a sketch of Kira. She's standing behind a circular console. She's got her hands out on either side of her, resting her fingers on the console. She's got a very cocky pose, her hips tilted to one side and a smirk on her face. The biggest sketch on the right is of Kira and Dax together. Dax is sitting on a stool with Kira standing inbetween her legs. Kira has her arms draped over Dax' shoulders and her fingers are intertwined behind Dax' back. She's smirking down at Kira. Dax' face is mostly facing away from the viewer but she's gazing up at Kira, her eyes wide. The background is a dark reddish grey. End ID]
