#I was just joking at first but. he did eat the baby. he absorbed it into himself. obviously not intentionally#he wanted it to live so very much#but it wasn't possible#but he got a part of himself back by absorbing his child. familial cannibalism!#and it parallels mora who refuses to acknowledge odo's right as a parent his capacity for it almost to the last#I *am* your father and I know best#not only about you but also about your child#acknowledge your debt to me#be dependent on me#that also is a form of cannibalism#I am the eternal father and I will not be succeeded#I am always stronger than you and if you have something I lack I will take it from you eat it out of you#and odo is forced into this role through no fault of his own#he really wanted his child to be free and loved... I confess I cried#elevated shitpost fr#ds9#🫀
