Garak.

Kosh should stroll up and say something really cryptic to Garak.

In fact, I demand a Garak/Kosh crossover episode.

DS9 Gal AZ · July 26 2012, 03:33 AM

Tell me you have an idea how that conversation would go ...

Jeff O'Connor · July 26 2012, 03:43 AM

KOSH: "Understanding is a three-edged sword."
GARAK: "Delightful phrase. What precisely does it mean, good sir?"
KOSH: "Yes."

BASHIR: "Even the lies?"
GARAK: "Especially the lies."
KOSH: "Then the willows must scuttle carefully."
BASHIR: "Suddenly, Garak, you make a lot of sense."

GARAK: "All this so-called democracy... frankly, Kosh, it offends my senses."
KOSH: "The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote."
GARAK: "Exactly! Exactly. With the Dominion looming over our heads, there's no time for such... idle fancies."
KOSH: "They are alone. They are a dying people. We should let them pass."
GARAK: "Who? The Federation or the Dominion?"
KOSH: "Yes."
QUARK: "I really hate it when he does that."

^ Yeah see, all I could think of was:
*Kosh glides up to Sisko*

Kosh: You have always been here.
*Kosh glides away. Sisko raises his eyebrows at Sheridan.*
Sheridan: *shrugs* Yeah ... he does that.

Come to think of it, Sisko and Sheridan should meet ... or certainly Sisko and Sinclair:

Sinclair: So ... you're basically Bajoran Jesus, then?
Sisko: Yeah, pretty much.
Sinclair: Hmm. I'm Minbari Jesus myself.
Sisko: Cool. *they shake hands* *Long pause*
Sinclair: Sooo ... you wanna talk socks?
Sisko: I'm beginning to see why they replaced you.

Jeff O'Connor · July 27 2012, 06:50 AM

Hahaha.

Imagine if Kosh were in the wormhole in the pilot episode of DS9, forced to explain linear time to the Prophets. I think that would be the most confusing, convoluted, longwinded and ultimately, seemingly completely aimless script a writer would ever be tasked with.

Londo starts out friendly and boisterious, more of a comic relief character, gets much darker, and eventually becomes an almost tragic ... when, maybe not hero, but certainly not a bad guy.

Londo was definitely a tragic character and he knows full well what he's done, and had no illusions about what he deserved in regards to that. He lucked out and was able to escape his due for awhile, but in the end.....

At any rate, I think Londo and Garak would've been entertaining to watch in conversation. They were probably the most fun to watch.....Garak with his cryptic wording, Londo with his comedic wit.....the conversation might not be long, but it'd be classic, that's for sure.

Is that a challenge?

Oh what the hell, I'll give it a go:

Kosh: You do not understand, but you will.
Prophets: Will?
Kosh: In the future.
Prophets: Future?
KosH: Yes.
Propehts: But you exist here.
Kosh: Yes. I have always been here.
Prophets: Always ... never ... these have no meaning to us.
Kosh: You are a closed circle. You are returning to the beginning.
Prophets: Beginning?
Kosh: .....You do not understand.
Propehts: No, we don't.

*Approximately five billion years later ... or yesterday.*

*Kosh exits the wormhole, muttering what sounds suspiciously like a string of Vorlon expletives. He fetches Sisko from the station and brings him back into the wormhole with him.*

Sisko: Why am I here?
Kosh: You have always -
Sisko: Oh don't give me that crap. You couldn't figure out how to explain linear time to them, could you?
Kosh: Impudent!
Sisko: Up yours!

Jeff O'Connor · July 28 2012, 08:07 AM

Excellent!

Rhubarbodendron · July 28 2012, 09:24 AM

Aww yes, Kosh is such fun. I miss that cryptic ol' so-and-so. "Interludes and Examinations" gets me everytime.
