Summary
“Human memory is selective and linear. Simply put, a human remembers the best of times in progressive order, beginning with earliest childhood. The rosy memories are only challenged by nightmares. A Cardassian remembers everything on every level all the time. For us, past and present are not neatly separated. We live with everything in the moment–including the nightmares. And so do you. To a human this would be chaotic, unbearable. For us it’s just the way it is”- A Stitch In Time, Andrew J. Robinson

Summary
Post-canon Cardassia vignettes, inspired by The Cure's "Mint Car."
Very light, very fluffy, very self-indulgent.
Hey, the world may be half-destroyed, but Cardassia rebuilds, Cardassia survives - and in the meantime, infatuation is a power unto itself. Even survivors fall in love, as Elim Garak is finding out. (Julian Bashir is pleased to assist.)

Summary
"It doesn’t matter," he says. "You never remember anyway. No matter how many times I tell you, in the end it’s just me."
He can practically taste the silence that stretches between them after that, as Garak is trying to puzzle out the meaning.
"I’m stuck in a time loop," Julian explains unprompted. "In a bit over a day we are attacked, and die, and then it starts all over again."Bookmarked by especiallythelies
