Quite so! Did you know that Starlfeet makes their officers keep their snacks in just two pockets on their pants?! And that’s it? Humans need more snacks than we do! I bet a Vulcan did that to them. And the poor Bajorans have to attach little pouches to their belts to carry snacks. Tragic.

Many outside the Empire wonder why our uniforms are so… puffy.
While a more reputation-driven soldier might say it’s to conceal our exact silhouette from attackers, it’s really just more space for snacks.

There is a human saying. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.
Those who romanticize it may as well forget.

No, it’s… perhaps something I needed to hear.

I suppose… it’s interesting, the Starfleet and Bajoran officers I served with during the war seemed to have a different philosophy, I think a human I was working with called it “all for one and one for all”. It’s quite noble in a way, if perhaps naive. ->

It’s far from your fault. It’s how I was raised.

Ahh, you were a Starfleeter, yes, I remember now. Your family being accepted in the Federation is one of the reasons I thought it would be viable to apply for citizenship. The old guard were still decrying you as defectors of course.

Oh? What ship did you serve on?

That was hardly the worst of what I suffered due to the war… but thank you.

the concerns of my superiors at the time, I just wanted to be away from the front lines.
I do not care for being a priority target of the Dominion.

of our technology was no longer a concern, since they’ve abided the Treaty of Algeron for decades and they could get cloaks from the Klingons if they really wanted. Our devices are better suited to a ship with an overtuned warp core like the Defiant Class, but I didn’t really care about ->

After an incident where the crew and I were captured by the Dominion and eventually freed by Major Kira and Constable Odo, I… was a bit rattled, and requested transfer. Surprisingly it was granted, by Chairman Koval of the Tal’Shiar no less. Apparently the Federation’s possible replication ->

And you as well, I’ve come to respect pacemakers since the war.
Indeed I was, I was meant to oversee the cloaking device installed on the Defiant to prevent the Federation from learning too much about the Star Empire’s technology.
