Quark for being the first sentient being who could befriend the asshole fascist goo man.
Heh. I like how you phrased that.
Though, there’s a social-commentary subtext to them that I’ve long picked up, that lends more colour to that friendship, in that it’s a (albeit tense and fraught) relationship between (… to put at least some wording to the idea…) capital and state monopoly of force.
Awwww, lovely. Look at that beautiful friendship instigated. What could go wrong…
(… though they never did press heavily on that. … Mainly, I suspect, because they cornered themselves from being able to, because Odo’s been made too much of a stickler, not corruptible enough.)
Right?? Their friendship is all about subtext, they’d never admit that they’re friends or have developed a bond or schedule revolving around the other.
Though since writing that previous comment I’ve seen more episodes to learn Odo has had other more traditional friends for far longer
