Summary
The Garak-Bashir family happens to spend the holidays in England. Garak is not amused.
Julian’s choice of Christmas jumpers doesn’t help.
I love fanfics portaying Garak’s cold-induced grouchiness and the ones where Garak and Julian quarrel about fashion and I had to write something that combines both for Christmas. Enjoy! -

Summary
At the end of the Dominion war, Julian leaves for Cardassia with Garak. They will have to build their relationship while facing the hardships of a war-devastated planet.
This story is a sequel to "what we are meant to be" and starts a few hours after its ending. You don't need to read the prequel to understand this fiction but it is probably helpful. Anyway, the prequel was canon-compliant until the end of season 7.

Summary
Follows Garak and Bashir's relationship from after "The Wire" to post-canon Cardassia. Canon-compliant until the end of the series... but romance will come, don't worry ;) EDIT: I am changing the last two chapters because I was not entirely happy with the results. Romance still coming!

Summary
Julian Bashir had his happy ending.
They won the war, his friends found their own paths, he got the girl. He should have been happy. He should have focused on his victories and learned how to be content with Ezri. He really, really should have let it go when he heard the rumor that a ghost from his past was in the deep end.
But Julian was never good about doing what was best for him, and he couldn't stay away from Garak, even if he tried.

But Garak has secrets of his own, and they impact every choice he makes. Will he escape the shackles of his past and become the man his Doctor thinks he could be?
Or are they both just decaying...?
