My name is Grilka. Kozak was my husband. I've been told that you are the one who killed him.

One of the things I find most interesting about Quark is his tendency towards self-sacrificing behavior. He purposefully antagonizes people and forces them to confront their own vulnerabilities. He does this by painting himself as the bad guy and hoping people will be more upset at him than they are at themselves and speak openly about their problems.

I think a good example of this is in The Ascent when Quark semi-correctly points out that Odo finally got what he wanted: to be a solid. Odo angrily denies this but also recognizes it to be true in a way. But it's the antagonism that makes it an effective way to broach the subject with Odo. Quark knows that his reputation is poor and people don't trust him, but that doesn't mean he can't help them. He'll gladly become the villain in any scenario so that people can save themselves. Another example is in The House of Quark when he helps Grilka regain her honor and the title to her family's property. He literally sacrifices himself in this case, manipulating D'Ghor into dishonoring and exposing himself, once again relying on the same antagonistic behavior to draw out the truth.

I find Quark's behavior interesting not only from a narrative perspective (where he serves as a vehicle for the self-actualization of the other characters) but also because it enriches his own character arc. Quark's deep affection for his friends is purposefully masked behind a distrustful facade, both to protect his own feelings and to uphold the patriarchal values of Ferengi society. He consistently demonstrates to the audience that the opposite is true; he's someone who cares, who is invested in the well-being of his community and of his friends. I think an appropriate analogue is Garak, who in episodes like In the Pale Moonlight chooses to damn himself in Sisko's place by killing Vreenak, knowing that he is capable of committing atrocities that others cannot. But unlike Garak, Quark chooses takes the fall because he has hope.

The episode where Quark gets married to the Klingon and when his wife shouts “ENTER HUSBAND!” and Quark runs in and does a fruity lil pose for the Klingon council, that’s what life’s all about

"my main ship and crack ship are all about Quark: Quark/Grilka, Quark/Natima Lang, Brunt/Quark, Elim Garak/Quark, Keiko/Quark, Lwaxana/Quark I really think Elim Garak/Quark is kind of spicy. I also think Quark probably had multiple crush on Romulan women like Kimara Cretak. He's a disaster."

Do you ever think about the fact that, in spite of Quark's misogyny, he only actually seems to be attracted to women who are basically the complete opposite of what a Ferengi female is supposed to be?

since it’s been a while, I’ve been rewatching ds9 now that I’m older and.. how dare quark share a taste in women with me. he hits on a lot of women, but I’m specifically thinking of Pel, Natima Lang, and Grilka. Pel, who crossdresses for fun and for profit, Natima Lang, cardassian equivalent of an antifascist, and Grilka the certified girlboss. dream blunt rotation. high efficiency polycule. another rung on the ladder tempting me to write ds9 lesbian fanfic.
