Summary
Garak doesn't even think when he first uses the term, it just slips out.
A very silly fic about ownership.

Summary
When his long-time friend Dr Julian Bashir is caught in a building collapse, while working with the Federation relief Corps, Councillor Elim Garak is beside himself with worry. When it becomes apparent Bashir will not be recovering quickly or easily, Garak is baffled by Bashir's unwillingness to return to Federation space to recuperate. With the Cardassian medical system already buckling under strain and no other options, Garak is the obvious choice to help care of Bashir as he heals.
What Garak didn't reckon with is that proximity was a type of intimacy he'd scarcely had to deal with. -

Summary
"This thing between us is like a Cardassian novel. The ending is inevitable. But that doesn't count as a spoiler, because the fun part is seeing how we get there."
Julian has never been good at emotions, but Garak confuses him more than most. Figuring out their friendship is hard enough, but when he starts to imagine a more romantic association, it gets even more complicated.
Set concurrently with the final season and beyond.

Summary
Sequel to "When You Go Away." Julian's research project in speculative reproductive xenobiology is turning out to be a little more complicated than he'd hoped...
Silly and fun and very light. Highlights: second-season Bashir; flirtatious, fascinated Garak; Cardassian manners; lack of sleep; too much coffee; when when when can I see him again??
Note: this is a sequel, but can easily be read on its own.

Summary
“So, I’m to understand that you’re upset because — barring further daring heroics in the name of frontier medicine — you may only attain the average human lifespan?”
Julian inspects his own toes. “A bit, yes.”
After a moment, Garak says, conversationally: “The meteoric trajectory of your medical career may have to be compressed, I suppose. Carrington Award rescheduled for, what, forty-five or so? Admission to the Interplanetary Consortium of Physical Medicine bumped up to seventy? Now, don’t scoff, my dear Julian. If anyone can do it, it’s you.”

Summary
Eight years after the Dominion War, Dr. Bashir—rather afflicted, unfortunately—is en route to Cardassia Prime. Meanwhile, Garak has re-established himself as a politician of note, and his methods may be the source of more than a little friction. Furthermore, Garak's comrade-in-arms from the Cardassian Rebellion, Kira Nerys, is seeking to define a correct path for the tumultuous planet of Bajor. Ezri Dax, conversely, is struggling with her role in the Federation. The O'Briens are the two people suffering the least, and let me be the first to say, good for them.
Features an absolutely staggering amount of politicking, as well as periodic descriptions of alien ecology. Definitely a ensemble fic. You liked Martok, I hope?
CURRENTLY: Quark is done with his interview. Interview with a Quark.
