Reminds me of the time in a reddit thread someone asked why the Enterprise never used shuttle bay one and Wil Wheaton chimed in with "one time Worf got drunk off his forehead on Romulan ale and took a giant Klingon dump in the middle of shuttle bay one and we haven't quite been able to get the smell out since" and I've accepted this as canon since.

What I'm saying is if either Alexander Siddig or Andrew Robinson suggest that Bashir and Garak might have hooked up at least once it's going to be official canon forever no matter how much Trek writers try to deny it.

And finally, last year — two decades after the series ended — the actors who played Garak and Bashir reunited for readings of fan-written scripts, including one on which their characters are married.

Good enough for me lmao
