Author Website: Not that I'm aware of
Why this must be read:
Juxtaposing the different values of the Ferengi & the Klingons has made for some of the most memorable & funny episodes of the series. In this short humour piece, Quark is being sued by Martok's wife, Sirella, over one of his more tasteless enterprises. Comedy is so hard to write well (as the DS9 writers have proved more than once), but I think Miggy really pulls this one off. I'd love to have seen this as the B-plot to an episode.
"Do not explain further," the lawyer murmured. "Simplicity has always proven successful with this judge."
[Quark] ignored him. On further thought, he'd realized that if his lawyer had shown embarrassment, then he wasn't a particularly good Vulcan. The whole reason he'd hired him had been for the Vulcan logic, and if that wasn't a sure thing, better to go with Ferengi cunning. "Your honor," he said in his most obsequious tones. "It is hardly a new business model to involve existing personalities in the pleasurable storylines of holosuites. When I expanded into a new line of products to expand my earning potential, I was simply following the path of many brave entrepreneurs before me."
