Summary
"Remember when I said I hated you and you said you hated me?"
Quark slides his legs off the side of his bed and sits up.
"What the hell are you doing?" Odo snaps.
Quark stands on shaky legs, dragging the metal stand that holds his IV bag with him as he pads over to the side of Odo's bed.
"Get back in bed!"
"I'm trying to," Quark says. "Move over."
(In which Odo and Quark figure some things out after they go for a nice hike together.)

Summary
"You're not dying."
"I could be," Odo says, dubiously, crossing his arms. "I've had to regenerate every sixteen hours on the dot for my almost thirty years of existence outside a vat, and now I can barely make it thirteen!"
Quark quickly scrambles into a sitting position on the bed. "You're only thirty?!"
"I could be dying, and you focus on my age."
"You're not dying," Quark repeats, "you're seriously only thirty?"
(In which Quark and Odo have a baby. Sort of. Intended as a continuation of "sweet dream, saccharine, loosen up" but can be read stand-alone.)

Summary
There's a squishy, gelatinous something oozing down the side of Quark's face.
This is not an unusual way for Quark to wake up, nowadays. He just isn't sure whether it's his boyfriend or his boyfriend's kid.
He sticks one hand out. Odo isn't there next to him. He carefully feels the gooey mass draped over his cheek, head, and brow ridges. The mass is pretty small. Not big enough to be Odo. Okay, Quark thinks. He's probably doing security chief things. That means that the being lying on his face can only be--
"Clover," he mumbles, peeling her carefully off his face, "good morning. You sleep good?"
(In which Quark struggles to accept fatherhood, Odo makes a revelation, everyone is very frightened, and a changeling toddler has a lot of fun--not necessarily in that order.)

Summary
Weyoun blinks, dumbstruck.
Then he laughs.
Quark knows laughter. This is neither the laugh of a man who just won big at the Dabo table nor the laugh of someone amused at a joke.
This is unmistakably a nervous laugh--the kind of laugh that Broik always lets out when he knows he's about to lose a game of tongo.
"Not a changeling?" Weyoun says, laying a hand over his chest. "No. That can't be true. Founder Odo, you are confused."
"No," Odo says, "I'm not, Weyoun. For the first time I see things as they are."
(In which Quark and Odo take their kid on a vacation, Weyoun 6 has a full-blown existential meltdown, Damar learns some very interesting things, and Quark busts into god's living room... again.)
