Concept: Kira Nerys, CO of DS9, and Lt. Mekor Dukat, science officer.
So there was Dukat, droning on about how his youngest would look to the Federation and despise them (the Maquis were coming to destroy his home – the drama). But the truth of the matter is, after the Dominion war and the much-needed aid from the Federation, Dukat’s boy makes the choice of enrolling into Starfleet. And is then magically posted to DS9. Kira thinks she’ll have a problem with him, but she’ll end up demanding the adoption papers from the Cardassian government after a month.
I mean, they’d bond over so much.
“Your father was an arse, no offence.” “Colonel, you’re preaching to the choir.”
“She was brilliant. She could bring anything to life beneath her hand.” “Stars… Who was this?” “That, I believe… was Tora, her mother… I never met her, but Ziyal could bring her back to life with only a few paintbrushes and a canvas.” “She was quite beautiful. Father always did have an eye for beautiful things.”
And she’d end up teaching him baseball, and he’d probably get roped into everything else happening on the station as well; Julian’s holosuite programs, Molly’s botany projects, Quark and Nog’s weekly game of Tongo “Ah! Another Dukat. My god, he had them coming out of his ears, didn’t he?”
Also, Kira is a delight to draw, and Cardassian necks are a laugh.
Hell yes.
