“If you’re happy, there’s something very wrong in the world. The center cannot hold.”

oh, Odo and your embodiment. Bodies can be tricky things.

a baby changeling! adorbs!

Bajoran birthing rituals are very ritualistic.

Odo’s adorable.

And Worf! We haven’t had enough Worf lately. “Why are you talking to your beverage?” Well there he put his foot in it didn’t he

Odo’s got his own parenting technique! Also, adorbs!

I appreciate Odo and his father-figure arguing about child-rearing “experiments.”

What a lovely moment for the little changeling family there :slight_smile:

Awwww Mora loves Odo in his own awkward way.

Shakaar and Miles are funny. And Nerys being like boys STFU it’s great.

Even Quark has read Yeats!

Poor Odo, so overjoyed with the baby changeling only to lose it.

Such a peaceful birth

“please don’t die.” oh, Odo. At least you got your shape-shifting back.

Kira’s enthusiasm about the baby is so cute.
And I like how Odo and Mora have reconciled.

That’s a lovely little beat at the end with Odo and Kira recognize reality but also mourning their loss. Evidently that was Nana Vistor’s suggestion. Smart woman.
