Summary
Julian has been working far too hard. Someone needs to ensure he takes a break—even if it breaks him.
There is a whistling snap as Garak tests it in the air, and every primordial instinct in Julian leaps to attention. His hair stands on end and he kicks, pure instinct. “Garak, what—”

Summary
The choices we make, or others make for us, change who we become. Or do they?
Julian Bashir was meant to be a doctor. But when his augment status nearly comes to light at Starfleet Academy, he pivots—quietly, strategically—into engineering, hiding among Starfleet's remote outposts. His latest assignment: a contested Class-P planet, where the days stretch to 27 hours and the company is limited to a handful of observers… including one Garak. Charming. Cryptic. Dangerous?
Cut off from the rest of the galaxy by atmospheric interference, Julian finds himself navigating more than the frigid planet surface. As he and Garak find themselves in close quarters—and closer conversations—the outpost begins to fail. Hidden agendas surface, and a fragile alliance may be the only thing standing between survival and ruin.
A ‘butterfly flaps its wings’ AU where Julian and Garak cross paths years before the events of DS9.

Summary
Julian's heart pounded. Garak's eyes searched his face, and then his lips parted and a rumble emerged.
His eyes were too wild, too unfocused. His weight pressed Julian into the hard ground, and Julian felt every sharp edge of rock beneath his shoulder blades, his spine. A piece of gravel bit into his hip, and when he shifted to ease the pressure, Garak's grip tightened. A low sound built in his chest—a primal growl Julian had never heard from him before.
Oh God, Julian thought, his pulse thundering in his ears. What have I done?
The DS9 crew crash-lands on a planetoid that has a strange effect on Garak, reverting him back to a feral state. Thankfully, after all their holosuite hunts, Julian knows what to do.
... Julian hopes he knows what to do.
(Can be read standalone, but if you like Cardassian hunt/chase sex games, this is the series for you)

Summary
Garak broke the kiss with a ragged breath, eyes locking onto Julian's with that raw gleam. "You ran so well, my dear," he murmured, that low rumble that vibrated through Julian's chest. "So fast. So agile. And yet here you are. Caught."
-
Julian notices the way Garak looks at him sometimes during intimate moments, like he wants to follow him, chase him. It makes sense; Cardassians evolved from a predator species, after all.Who is Julian to deny him the hunt?
