ANON HI I’M LITERALLY ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT ANDY SO I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY. I love him so so much and I especially love the fact that when he wrote A Stitch in Time it was never really intended for anyone else to read, he just wrote it to get into character for Garak, so reading his memoir and noticing all of the similarities between his actual life and the backstory he gave to Garak because he was pulling from his own experiences bc that’s what he knew and that’s what made him into who he is now I love it so much and I love him. I love all the stories he tells I’ve compiled a top 10 Andy moments PowerPoint from that especially assaulting a police officer at age 10 and essentially gaslighting Irene into marrying him but in a cute way I promise I swear. AND I also love that despite Andy being literally the sweetest man to ever live, like he’s so kind and warm and gentle and anyone who’s met him will tell you that, he’s also hilariously stubborn and capable of being such an asshole, mostly and especially when he was younger, but idk I genuinely love the fact that he’s not kind because he’s a pushover and a people pleaser he’s kind because you deserve it which makes it more genuine and I LOVE how comfortable he makes people feel, I’ve heard from lots of people and experienced this myself, where you’re rly nervous and freaking out right before you meet him and then as soon as he talks to you it all goes away and you feel welcomed and valued and at ease and I’m going to fuCkING KISS HIM ON THE HEAD I SWEAR
