This is angsty, but at least they are holding each other at the end of it.

Bashir's first time, well, I kinda got squicked when he started talking about his childhood after that, it wasn't /that/ horrible was it?

...or does The First Time, in this title, refers not so much as to the virginity that Garak expected, but the first time they were just together?

Just first time together. I figured neither one of them would be virgins.

I've really missed these two - thank you so much for writing them. I love what you have done with them here. They are both fascinating monsters. Both alien to each other and to the world in general. This is just gorgeous work - thank you again.

Thank you for the feedback and praise. They are my favorite pair.

I've got to say, I didn't think I would like this at first, but I loved the way it got very dark very quickly. I imagine there's more than a little darkness behind Julian's ready smile, but what really sold this for me was your portrayal of Richard Bashir: a man who knows he's pissed away his life trying to vicariously capture success by pinning every hope he has on his child. Excellent work.

P.S. Much love on the Enterprise/Starry Night icon.

Thank you! I know my Richard isn't very canon, but I always imagine him this way. And after the Dominion prison and the revelations about his enhancements, I always saw Julian's smile as deception.

Aw, I really enjoyed this. Nicely angsty.
