Beckett Mariner shipping Deep Space 9 characters

BohandiAnsoid

I’ve been thinking a bit about Deep Space Nine ships and pairings and then I remembered that Beckett Mariner served on that station… And I began to wonder, if she were to ship people on that station, whom would she ship with whom?
So, I would like to ask you that question: what people on Deep Space Nine would Mariner ship? Answers don't have to be very serious (because it's based on Lower Decks).
 
Might depend on how well she knew everyone but Bashir-O'Brien would be my guess if she only interacts with them in the context of Quark's Bar.
 
You know, they should have had an episode where they encounter an alien society whose entire culture is built on the idea of shipping each and every one they meet, however far-fetched or unlikely. Slash fiction is the highest art form in that culture and the individuals who can come up with the best pairings are highly venerated state officials. Let’s call them … the Bohansoid. :shifty:
 
She'd have to wait in line for Morn, given the number of lovely ladies he has hanging off him. Mariner doesn't strike me as the patient type. And besides, she'd get distracted by the Ferengi, organize a game of tongo, and clean them all out.
 
Maybe I’m totally off, but this isn’t about a relationship Mariner would be part of. This is about whom she would ship on the station.
 
So Becky is just sitting in Quarks with her bestie and they're just going "Bashir and Leeta." "Quark and Ezri" "Rom and Morn" as people pass buy?

Oh wow. I would be their PRESIDENT :lol:

But honestly I can see this shipping scenario happening - I guess for Mariner this would be real person shipping, which IS a thing that happens these days and also has a lot of fics and readers on AO3 (look this up at your own risk). Would she also write or read fic on whatever the future equivalent of AO3 is? lol

As for DS9 pairings I'm pretty sure Garak/Bashir stands out, as always.
