Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

one

  • Founders - Change shape
  • Thing - Change shape

two

  • Founders - live in a giant soup and can split off from the soup at will
  • Thing - Can divide up the shape at any time into autonomous functional groups

three

  • Founders - Fly in space ships
  • Thing - Flies in massive space ship

four

  • Thing - Doesn't like fire
  • Founders - who likes fire?

I posit that the founders are the Thing, but perhaps a group of founders operating in special operations mode. Or they could be children out on founder Rumspringa like Odo was.
