I don’t listen to podcasts, but I would if these three had one. Honestly would love to have a girls brunch with them. Bitching with these three would heal me of everything.

AU where Ishka and Zek are visiting DS9 circa season 7 only for Zek to have a heart attack during oo-mox. Bashir manages to revive him, of course, but Zek is shaken. He’s still supposed to have decades ahead of him! He’s as sprightly as a Caldonian sandhopper! Clearly he needs to make a lifestyle change for his health. 

At least, that’s how he explains to Ishka why he’s dumping her. 

She’s insulted, and furious, and more hurt than she’s willing to admit to herself. If Zekkie had just switched from fried to baked tube grubs like she’d told him to, maybe his heart wouldn’t be so fragile, but noooo. Quark is a poor source of comfort, but he does have the best alcohol on the station, so she finds herself nursing a very fruity and very potent drink at his bar. 

Enter Ambassador Lwaxana Troi, daughter of the Fifth House, holder of the Sacred Chalice of Rixx, heir to the Holy Rings of Betazed. 

Lwaxana had been putting off finalizing her divorce with Odo for a couple years (after all, maybe the poor, sweet, tortured man would tire of mooning after Colonel Kira eventually), but in light of Odo and Kira’s new relationship she felt it appropriate to sign the paperwork and be done with it. Lwaxana’s son is safe with his nanny on Betazed, and she’s a single woman once more. And happy about it. Yes, definitely, she feels only selfless joy at Odo’s obvious happiness with the lovely young Colonel. If she needs a drink, it’s to celebrate her status as a free woman. 

She couldn’t say if it’s the Ferengi woman’s elegant clothes or gorgeously wrinkled head that draws her in, but somehow they strike up a conversation. 

Ishka’s gratified to find her righteous indignation reflected back tenfold in this flamboyant stranger’s striking black eyes. “He can’t treat you like that!” Lwaxana tells her. “It’s hardly your fault if he’s hasn’t the constitution for canoodling. To blame you for his own weakness - men! All the same! I’d like to teach him a lesson.” 

That’s when Lwaxana gets the idea. 

Ishka is bemused by Lwaxana’s enthusiastic (and not a little tipsy) explanation of why they should pretend to be stepping out together - you know, courting! Having a passionate fling! No better way to make Zek regret being so hasty and dreadful to her. It will be great fun! 

As long as neither of them catch feelings. There’s no threat of that… right?

the whole point of these now is that at some point quark will dress just like ishka. more below whatever

i always liked the idea of quark being so much like his mother! like wearing the same makeup, behaving alike sometimes and THEN getting older and even wearing kind-of-alike clothes? They're so similar that pisses quark off so much but he cant escape ishka's influence anyways.....

some time ago i did this quark in a cloak thinking of it as a post-canon travelling outfit (with an idea of him never travelling without like a million layers in case of emergency landing on a freezing planet lmao) + skirt. had a feeling that post-canon quark would get a little less conservative at least about outfits, he wouldn't miss a chance to look fire... hes still fully covered very masculine (winkwink)

i had an idea to draw the suit (thats underneath the cloak), but really couldn't find the time UNTIL i got stuck in the place with no electricity and connection obv and well. went crazy. and then i did this ishka and i think ill redraw this at some point?

Not exactly proud of her looking like this BUT I WAS WORKING WITH NO REFERENCES.... pure vibes.... one eye opened only prob....

i got her fancy pants xddd

god help those reading it im not ready to reread this.

I’m tired of uggo weird alien man gets with normal attractive human or humanish woman, let Ishka date the hunkiest male model you’ve ever seen
