Can't you just see him sitting pointlessly alone in his quarters with Quark the only person willing to talk to him and endure his bitterness and self-loathing? At some point, I think Odo would have questioned whether he should be allowed to exist, though...he is his own worst security threat...and it blew up his life...any chance he had with Kira, his job, etc. I think that inexorably leads to either an attempted suicide or a decision to leave the station to figure out what went wrong. The link...was paradise...but I'm not ready for paradise...that seems such a bad way to conclude what happened. The link wasn't paradise...it was a PRISON for his mind...might have felt peaceful, but it was still a means to destroy everything he was. Individuality matters...and Odo should have come to realize that.SABR Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00879056167130238382noreply@blogger.com
