    I would pay some serious money to see an Elim Garak movie like John Wick. Paramount is sitting on gold and is wholly unaware.

      Dive into the seedy underworld of the Gamma Quadrant’s sewing circle. Elim Garak is forced out of retirement after his precious bonzai is destroyed, the last gift from his partner, Bashir.

        We absolutely must pitch this project as soon as possible.

          Write a collective fan fic. It will be better than anything paramount could come up with.

            You’re probably right, but I’ve never worked on a collective fanfic. How’s it work?

              I dont know.

              Everyone brainstorms the general outline, what needs to happen in a chapter and then everyone writes a chapter, edit the previous chapter so that it flows better in their chapter. Something like that.

    I don’t think Garak would be that direct. Had three men killed yes, kill them directly? Less so. At least by his time on ds9.

      Also, even if he did directly kill them, he wouldn’t let people know about it with that amount of certainty.

        Indeed, if he killed three men with a sewing kit and someone saw him do it, four men were killed with a sewing kit.

          But the stories of people sewn up would be legendary. If he wanted the bodies to be found

      Agreed, but this is just me being silly.

      He’d use his sewing kit to set up Rube Goldberg-esque traps, like in the film Sew Torn.

    He sewed offensive Gorn messages into the clothing of three Romulan diplomats who stopped off at DS9. Because the Gorn can see different spectrum from Romulans, nobody noticed the hidden insults until they landed on Gornar.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally “othering” of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That’s okay! Just don’t let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it’s free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not ‘inspire jamaharon’

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community’s expectations.

Fun will now commence.
