Title: Going Native
Author: Regann
Canon: Star Trek DS9
Pairing: Julian Bashir/Elim Garak
Rating: Teen [PG]
Word Count: 13,000+
Summary: An AU take on Season 5’s Doctor Bashir, I Presume. With no recourse but to resign from the service, Bashir takes a chance that he couldn’t have contemplated as a Starfleet officer. Meanwhile, the crew looks for a creative solution that will keep their doctor on the station.
Recommendation: I have to admit that this is a lot less hand-wavey than the resolution that was used on the show, a lot more plausible without Starfleet disregarding their own rules. But oh man Julian, that’s kind of a dick move. Thankfully Garak is distracted by being impressed with your lying skills.
