    Your call sir, if you have the art and relative scaling already worked out, seems like an easy add.

    That smokey voice though.

    If we’re talking about best gal, it’s obviously Talia Winters. Aside from a too strong chin, which just seems to be endemic in American actresses for some reason.

    It was required for the Byron arc to make any sense. But yes, that particular failure of lordship was notable because of it was entirely out of character.

    Babylon 5 A Fighting Chance --- A Babylon 5 AU

    The king Of England’s Daughter romance is hardly an inhuman element of the story. In fact it’s rather more human than the Gnostic reduction of the war in heaven to purely materialistic ‘ancient aliens did it’ terms.

    That internal conflict just makes things even more delicious. As his duty is ultimately to the people not to any piece of paper, his duty drives him to act as a Caesar, with Jha'dur whispering advice in his ears. Mwahahaha! All your dreams, torn asunder and trampled underfoot by human nature...

    Babylon 5 A Fighting Chance --- A Babylon 5 AU

    It seems like a plot hole, except it was literally designed to fail, just in that way. To the shadows, the inevitable attempted PsiCorp coup and war between Teeps and Norms wasn't a bug, it was a *feature*. But yeah, if you wanted to head off a violent resolution of the contradictions you...

    Babylon 5 A Fighting Chance --- A Babylon 5 AU

    The PsiCorp *Was* the Shadows stepping in to drive a wedge between mundanes and teeps. It was designed to result in conflict, which the inherent contradictions of the EAs commitment to oligarchic rule only magnified. 'Justin': "When you look at a Vorlon," Morden says, "you see what they want...

    Babylon 5 A Fighting Chance --- A Babylon 5 AU

    The contradictions presented by the natural Aristocracy of the Telepaths will be extraordinarily difficult to resolve within the context of a liberal democratic paradigm that operates as a legitimization machine for the desires of the Oligarchs who buy and sell the EA Senators. The Oligarchs...
