the Star Trek fandom always acts like either Riker or Kirk is the god of rizz in the Star Trek universe, and it's bullshit, when Quark exists right there.
he was literally pulling klingon widowers, cardassian enemies of state, trans ferengi, vulcan terrorists, amorphous he/they shape shifters. he constantly had men chasing after him too.
Kirk's womanizing ways were vastly overstated by people whose memories are clouded by age, and Riker's repertoire was the most generic humanoid hotties out there, whose personalities were basically omg i'd love to have sex with you do you like my skimpy outfit.
Quark was pulling much harder just by virtue of the fact that all of his pulls were people who had a good reason to not get involved with him at all, but couldn't resist in the end.
seriously. cardassian political scientist that hates him, ferocious klingon warrior who just wants to use him for political reasons, a trans ferengi who doesn't want to be outed, a Vulcan terrorist who REALLY shouldn't be helping him but does, and a cop.
he has that much rizz, mk?
trust me. I'm a scientist.
I have the qualitative data to back this up.
Lena: Uhhh... Kara, when did you get a giant back tattoo of a tiger? And WHY did you get a giant back tattoo of a tiger?
Kara, looking sheepish: So you know that icebreaker they make you do for corporate bonding? Two truths and a lie?
Lena: Yes...
Kara: Well, I kind of forgot that me being Supergirl is meant to be a secret, and so my three things were that I plan my travel routes so that I'm never more than 1 mile away from the nearest pizza place, that sometimes when it's hot I like to use my freeze breath to make myself a roof top ice rink, and that I have a giant tiger tattoo. I was just trying to make my facts fun! But then everyone assumed the ice rink thing must be the lie and wanted to see my tattoo. It sort of spiraled from there, and, well... I named him Hugo.

Prompt-based fandom events are when you really learn everyone’s colors like you’ll find the people who take the prompt “death” and come up with some smarmy ship-art of character A and character B walking over dead leaves while wearing scarves and drinking hot cider and then you’ll find the people who take the prompt “sunshine” and write how a bright glint of sunshine reflected off the barrel of a gun is the absolute last thing character A sees before taking a bullet to the chest
you can lead a content creator to water but you sure as fuck can’t make him drink
