"I can believe anything, provided that it is quite incredible."
"Now, the value of an idea has nothing whatsoever to do with the sincerity of the man who expresses it. Indeed, the probabilities are that the more insincere the man is, the more purely intellectual will the idea be, as in that case it will not be coloured by either his wants, his desires, or his prejudices."
Lord Henry Wotton, in Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray

Scheherezade (NC-17; G/Du, G/K):
Six months after WYLB, Dukat's back, and Garak's got him. One of my usual redemption fables, with a little bdsm and voyeurism to spice things up. A holiday, too, but not a festive one.

Eureka! (PG; O):
A speculation on how Odo might first have demonstrated his sentience and found his voice in Dr.Mora's lab. No Garak here, but there is a witty Cardassian stand-in.
