Emigre is a Star Trek: DS9 story by Mrs260.
Reactions and Reviews
Emigre presents a compelling and poignant post-series future for Doctor Bashir on war torn Cardassia. Mark draws on both the optimistic idealist of season one as well as the indignant realist of season seven to portray Bashir as a complex, caring and ultimately resilient human being. And just like the series at its best, this story disposes of the myth of the Federation as a Utopian construct. Instead, it is a political entity, struggling to survive and capable of both right and wrong. What's more, Emigre has one of the most realistic portrayals of a loving relationship between Garak and Bashir. One that is replete with conflict, banter, and affection, but doesn't contain a single ounce of saccharine. [1]
The Federation’s relationship with Cardassian post-Dominion War has got to be complicated, so this fic by @mrs260 makes me happy, exploring one potential complication, as it applies to Bashir and Garak’s relationship.[2]
an established-relationship post-series garak/bashir. i don't usually like established relationship pieces, but this one's post-war-relief background is intriguing; the plot, dialogue and characterisation are good; and the tone and atmosphere are just right for it. [3]
