DS9 and YOU

1. Which character of DS9 (no matter if main cast or guest star) would you say is most like yourself (personality wise and/or appearance wise..or two characters, one for personality, one for appearance) and why?
Appearance wise: Ezri Dax.
Personality wise: Jake Sisko in the later seasons. He's a writer who doesn't want to be in Starfleet and also slightly nerdy.
2. And which character is as opposite from yourself as possibel and why?
Leeta and Quark. She's a stupid dabo girl. I'm very intelligent and I'd hate being a dabo girl. He's a Ferengi bartender. I'm introverted and nothing like the Ferengi.
3. Which character would be most likely become a good friend of you, if you would be a character in DS9? Why?
Bashir, Jake, Kira Nerys and Ezri Dax.
4. Which character would most likely never become a good friend of you, why?
Quark and the Female Changeling.
5. What would be your job on DS9? Why that one?
A civilian job. Starfleet is not for me.
6. If you would not be living on the station, but be in that universe/timeline..well you know...where would you be living instead and what would you be doing there?
A civilian scientist and an author living on Earth.
 
1. Well, I don't look like anyone on the show, but I think that personality-wise I am a combination of Jake Sisko, Ziyal, and Ezri Dax.

2. Hmmm, Gul Dukat?

3. I would probably become friends with Bashir, Garak, Nog, Jake, or Ezri.

4. Probably not Kira, because I would be scared of her. Not Winn because I can't stand self-righteous religious touchy-feely types.

5. Nothing dealing with science, mathematics, engineering, or security. I think I would to be Garak's assistant like someone else suggested. I would also like to be an alien cultural historian or author - maybe I could write holosuite programs :)

6. I would be living on an alien planet married to a hot alien and have lots of adorable little hybrid babies.
 
1. Which character of DS9 (no matter if main cast or guest star) would you say is most like yourself (personality wise and/or appearance wise..or two characters, one for personality, one for appearance) and why?

Appearance-wise I was closest to Ezri--small, built about the same, and Dutch-looking. :) Personality-wise, I can see similarities there, too.

That said, though...I would not want to be part of the Federation, so I might be more comfortable (well, in a certain sense, because obviously the guy has a short, rough life) as someone like Tekeny Ghemor. Ziyal, too, though the "short, rough life" thing applies to her, too.

While I would have picked Kira, in the end she never fully relinquishes her bitterness or her racism, and since I would be very likely to pop into the Trek universe as Cardassian...

2. And which character is as opposite from yourself as possibel and why?
Dukat. (And by that I mean the canon version, NOT the good version I created.) The self-delusion, self-aggrandizement, sexual sadism...just...NO.

3. Which character would be most likely become a good friend of you, if you would be a character in DS9? Why?
Ziyal, though when the show was on the air, she would've been older and more mature than I was. I think she would've been a good mentor, though, and very accepting--which would be very important because I was usually the kid that got picked on mercilessly. I can't see her ever inflicting that on someone else.

Ezri might be a possibility, too.

Jake...no doubt I would have found him VERY attractive (again, remember the age I was at the time the show was on the air--he would have been an appropriate date then), but his directionlessness wouldn't have appealed, as he got older and clearly didn't have a plan for his life.

Odo I think I would have enjoyed for his cynicism and his ability to see through the Federation's elitism and pretenses. Garak could too, and I would be nice but keep him at arm's length because of his ruthlessness.

4. Which character would most likely never become a good friend of you, why?
The canon version of Dukat. He has no idea what friendship really is, for starters, and frankly I would never let him that close because how would I know his "thing" for Bajoran women wouldn't extend to human women? (That is, if I ended up appearing in that universe as human, which is VERY debatable. But even if I showed up as Cardassian, I'd still be very worried.)

Which could make for an awkward situation if I made friends with Ziyal. Let's just say I would be very careful never to be alone in the wrong place at the wrong time.

5. What would be your job on DS9? Why that one?
Most likely not in Starfleet, because I don't think I'd be able to make it in PT. I imagine I'd be working for one of the merchants (though NEVER for Quark).

6. If you would not be living on the station, but be in that universe/timeline..well you know...where would you be living instead and what would you be doing there?
I would probably be a Cardassian religious dissident, studying in secret to become a Guide.

(Obviously Treklit is NOT canon, but I said it anyway.)
 
1. Which character of DS9 (no matter if main cast or guest star) would you say is most like yourself (personality wise and/or appearance wise..or two characters, one for personality, one for appearance) and why?

O'brien. What can I say, I'm a normal guy doing his best (and none of the cast does look like me).

2. And which character is as opposite from yourself as possibel and why?

Quark seems like the opposite of being a regular guy.

3. Which character would be most likely become a good friend of you, if you would be a character in DS9? Why?

I'd like to hang out with Bashir and O'Brien, the kind of stuff they do is the kind of stuff I like doing.

4. Which character would most likely never become a good friend of you, why?

The gruffest, Odo, Worf, Kira. I'd be a looney idealist to them.

5. What would be your job on DS9? Why that one?

If Starfleet, Councilor, if not then Anthropo/Xenologist. I like people and studying people, or maybe I would bartend (but not at Quark's there's no way I'd sign a working contract with him).

6. If you would not be living on the station, but be in that universe/timeline..well you know...where would you be living instead and what would you be doing there?

I'd do those same occupations, on a ship or not in starfleet or not. I would try the academy as starfleet is a huge research resource, I'd rather be planetside or starbase posted than aboard a starship, I prefer long term research than hoping from new stuff to new stuff.

I have a love/hate relationship with these kinds of threads. I love reading everyone else's answers. I hate trying to answer the questions, myself. But I'll give this one a shot.

1. Which character of DS9 (no matter if main cast or guest star) would you say is most like yourself (personality wise and/or appearance wise..or two characters, one for personality, one for appearance) and why?
Personality: Odo. Appearance: Jadzia.
Odo. Because he seems to be like me in being kind of a loner and wanting to keep to himself. Jadzia. Because of the way I pull my hair back.

2. And which character is as opposite from yourself as possibel and why?
Kira. Because she's confident. She doesn't mind saying what she thinks. She's strong/tough. She could probably hold her own or even beat Worf in hand to hand combat.

3. Which character would be most likely become a good friend of you, if you would be a character in DS9? Why?
Jake and/or Nog. I seem to get along better with people younger than me then I do with people my age or older.

4. Which character would most likely never become a good friend of you, why?
Quark and/or Garak. Because I don't want to be friends with people I don't know when or how much to trust.

5. What would be your job on DS9? Why that one?
Security. Get to work with Odo.
or
A medical assistant. Get to work with Dr. Bashir.

6. If you would not be living on the station, but be in that universe/timeline..well you know...where would you be living instead and what would you be doing there?
Earth of the 24th century. Historian. I'd be from this time period...right here and now, you might say. I could teach everyone about late 20th century and early 21st century Earth.
 
1. Which character of DS9 (no matter if main cast or guest star) would you say is most like yourself (personality wise and/or appearance wise..or two characters, one for personality, one for appearance) and why?

Appearance wise, probably some nondescript Starfleet type in the background, although I do have curly hair like Colm Meany. Personality wise...I probably come off like Bashir, or used to: "proper", intelligent, idealistic, and entirely too smug at times.

2. And which character is as opposite from yourself as possibel and why?

Leeta. I'm serious, she's...playful, almost ditzy.

3. Which character would be most likely become a good friend of you, if you would be a character in DS9? Why?

Bashir, O'Brien, and Kira. I'd probably spend a lot of time at Vic's: I like lounge singers with charm. ;-) I'd be too intimidated by Sisko's authority and Dax's extroversion. I'd probably get along with Odo, but can't see him bothering to be social with someone he doesn't work with constantly.

Which character would most likely never become a good friend of you, why?

Winn, for...so many reasons. The female Changeling.

5. What would be your job on DS9? Why that one?

Probably a minor science or engineering station involving the transporter and cargo bays. :lol: I like things quiet.

6. If you would not be living on the station, but be in that universe/timeline..well you know...where would you be living instead and what would you be doing there?

Historian/librarian/museum curator, serving either as a civilian or in the Starfleet.
