i don’t know what the ds9 writers were going for here, but having julian flounce around, with a posh attitude, and a pipe constantly in his mouth did not read to me as umm straight.
HEY, WHATEVER YOU DO DON’T THINK ABOUT JULIUS EATON GOING OUT ON HIS LUNCHBREAK TO HAVE A QUEER RENDEZVOUS WITH ELIS GARRICK, AN OBVIOUS TRUMAN CAPOTE OR TENNESSEE WILLIAMS EXPY.
You wrang?
(Also maybe Elis was a war vet as well as a writer and has some scars to prove it. Maybe he was a cynical and torn up and thought no-one could love him and then he met Julian and it all changed)
