Boday felt very, very lucky to be eating gagh right now. He never thought that he would have felt that way, after all, it was gagh. But as the old Gallamite saying went, "You'd have to have an opaque skull to judge the food over the company,". They had a lot of sayings along those lines - but this one was seemed particularly useful. It reminded him to always make sure he was seeing what the real issue was. It reminded him to focus on the good and not the bad.
There seemed to be a lot of that going on at the moment.
He had seen past the gagh - that squiggly gross gagh, and Jadzia had seen past his brain - the squiggly slimy brain.
In way, Boday supposed, the gagh was Jadzia' version's of his brain. Many people found gagh replusive, but it was a part of her and she accepted it and loved it. He briefly allowed himself to entertain the thought that she had gone out with him because his brains reminded her of gagh. Boday knew it wasn't true, and it made him smile to think that.
Boday didn't go on a lot of dates, much less with girls who looked like Jadzia. He knew he was the envy of every man in the Klingon restaurant. And that felt good - for once he wasn't the guy who's brains showed; he was the guy with the gorgeous girl who was eating gagh.
