Why this must be read:

Set near the beginning of season 6, a day in the life of everyone's favourite Ferengi (and his bar), and nobody understands Quark as well as Selena. Funny and touching, and with perfect pitch characterization.

Sharpening his teeth for the day, Quark mentally reviewed the profit and loss situation. He’d have to get rid of much of the kanar, there was no help for that; after all, Garak couldn’t be depended upon to drink it all by himself, now that Ziyal was gone. And wasn’t that another uplifting thought. Quark had liked Ziyal; she had been utterly lacking in either Bajoran condescension or Cardassian arrogance, and she had always paid her bill. If she had been Ferengi, he would have bid for one of her body parts, in respect and memory, but Kira had insisted on putting her in the earth somewhere where her remains wouldn’t be of use to anyone.

My most humble thanks.

(Quark, otoh, is not humble. He has been wondering why Garak got all the attention this month for ages.*g*)

It is a testament to the strength of Quark's personality and charm (as transcribed by you) that my attention was torn away from Garak :-)

Quark would like you to know you're always welcome at his bar, and he'll even sponsor your first drink (of kanar; any insinuations that he simply needs to get rid of the stuff are hereby strongly rejected). He's even considering hiring Avon as a Dabo boy, just for you.

I am extremely flattered by Quark's most generous offers, particularly the kanar. If he could arrange also for Simon Tam to be employed in some capacity, then he would find me even less likely to leave the premises and consequently more likely to spend.
