Garak

A discussion of Star Trek pairing codes and name abbrevations was posted by Aleph Press to rec.arts.startrek.current on November 30, 1995. It said:

B/G *is* Bashir and Garak. There are only two commonly accepted fan slash

acronyms in Trek-- K/S (Kirk/Spock) and P/C (Picard/Crusher.) You never

see S/K or C/P. Other orthographies exist for B/G, though (I've also seen

it G/B, and even G/J! A side note-- a lot of fans have taken up using

people's first names in their orthographies, for instance referring to

Dax/Bashir fiction as J/J, despite the fact that neither character is

commonly called by their first name on the show. I think this is

annoying. If I see J, I expect it to be Janeway, not Dax or Bashir.)
