Summary
Julian helps the changeling impersonating him.
It wasn’t like the other time, on the Founders’ planet. The connection was much more direct, and there was no point in hiding what was happening. He didn’t have exact control over his- its body. He couldn’t have controlled it anyway; the signal was too laggy, throttled down to a trickle so it could slip through the wormhole disguised as background noise.
Still, it let him leave his quarters and play darts with Miles.
He considered spelling out some sort of message. Nothing overt, nothing that would be obvious in one meeting. Perhaps clustering the darts to one side, or in some other odd-but-not-impossible pattern. The clacking of the dabo wheels stuttered across the connection. Miles lurched from one position to the next, not quite as smooth as he would be in person. He didn’t even know if this was happening in realtime, or if it was some composite scenario the changeling was researching for later. But he could see Miles, and Leeta, and Morn, and even Quark, and they were alive, and the station was peaceful and he was home.

Summary
"Garak." It started, voice even, still as metal, but gentle, as if speaking to a wounded predator. "Put down the phaser." It's eyes lifted to his, and Garak knew it couldn't be him, his eyes were more full of stars than the great beyond outside the station, this thing had it all wrong, the eyes looked dull, and as soon as it lifted, it was back in the ground, ashamed. "Please, put it down." it finally pleaded.
The changeling wearing Julian like an ill fitting jacket pleaded softly, and the voice broke all throughout the sentence, Garak had to squeeze his phaser tight and bite down at his tongue again to get his heart to stop to ache.
"Tell me." Garak demanded, and pretended it didn't sound like a plea. "What in the hells did you just said to me?"
"I said..." It tried, eyes refusing to meet his and body bent in on itself as to convey discomfort, finally it raised it's head to look at a point in the wall just behind Garak's head. "I said I love you."
Or: Garak is sure that Julian has been replaced by a changeling once again, and this time, he won't fall for it's cheap manipulation, but the changeling is too good, it almost looks like the real thing.

Summary
"I understand love better than he could."
The Changeling has been observing his mark for years. When Garak proves difficult to deceive he deals with the distraction in the best way he can - in the way Julian might. To take the form of an object is to become it, after all, and he has become Julian Bashir. Only better.

Summary

He fails to notice how thoroughly the changeling that replaces Bashir deceives him.

The Federation reached its long limbs across the ink of space, unendingly planting itself with shallow roots in a thousand worlds. A Cardassian needed nothing outside of the nourishment of the homeland. They sustained the motherland, and in turn, she sustained them. Humans could not truly know isolation, for should they try hard enough, it seemed they could create a home anywhere, fickle creatures that they were. -

Summary
Instead of having reverted to his original species, Odo is still a solid. The actions take place between the events of "The Broken Link" (S4 E26) and beyond “A Simple Investigation (S5E17). The end of "The Begotten" (S5E12) is rewritten. There are references to other canon episodes as the chapters are posted. This is a multi-chapter work in the making (26 chapters have been outlined).
(Oct 2023 update): Resuming writing this novella.
Check my "Speculum" (27 ch) and other short pieces in my dashboard. Odo and/or Kira Nerys are the main characters in all of them. Thanks for reading. -

Summary
Life has been difficult of late for Julian and Garak. They were both imprisoned at Internment Camp 371 (in which Julian was held in solitary for some time, and Garak had to work in extremely stressful circumstances to reprogram Tain's transmitter to effect their escape); Julian's genetic status has been revealed - and anyone could know, now, what he is; and Garak is still suffering the effects of a concussion as well as a relapse of his addiction to triptacederine. Yet perhaps things will become easier, if Julian and Garak help each other.
