So I am halfway through B5 now! S3 is interesting because there are some things about it that I don't really like that much (the entire Franklin addiction arc, ugh) and things that --

-- well, I just watched World Without End last week... and I thought those of you who have watched B5 but who aren't following

selenak's rewatch would be entertained by my OMG WHAT JUST HAPPENED WITH MANY CAPITAL LETTERS flailing about :P

This is me watching World Without End:

Me: Well, I'll just watch a few minutes of this while I'm tidying up around the house before dinnertime --
Sinclair: *pulls back hood*
Me: WHAAAAT IT'S SINCLAIR???????
Me: ...now wait a moment, I've been told Sinclair comes back once and that is going to HAVE to be the episode where Babylon Squared is dealt with because someone would have WARNED me if JMS didn't close that loop --
Ivanova: They're killing us!
Me: OMG IT'S TIME-WARPED IVANOVA THIS IS DEFINITELY ALL B2 RELATED
Me: WHAT IS GOING ON
Me: SINCLAIR CAME BACK TO B5
Me: Sinclair and Sheridan are super cute together, awwww...
Ivanova: We assumed B4 had been taken into the future.
Me: WAIT! I ASSUMED THIS TOO! WAIT WHAT
Sheridan: Are you saying we stole B4?
Me: ARE YOU SAYING THEY STOLE B4??
Future!Londo: *appears on screen*
Me: LONDO????
Delenn: Our son --
Me: Oh, of course! [Not spoiled, but I had definitely gotten through rewatch osmosis the idea that Delenn has other motives, and ~child of destiny/two worlds/etc.~ is definitely a trope I grew up on, so this was probably the least surprising plot twist. I mean, still surprised! But not AS surprised.]
Me: IS THIS ALL REALLY GOING TO HAPPEN??
Me: LONDO??!!
Londo: Old friend...
Me: Old friend? Vir? That's not Vir? Who is that? G'KAR THAT'S G'KAR OMG
Me: THAT'S G'KAR STRANGLING LONDO LIKE IN THE VISION
Me: OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me: THERE'S VIR LOOKING AT THE THONE!! OMG HE'S GOING TO BE EMPEROR NOW LIKE IN THE PROPHECY
Me: THE LETTER WAS FROM SINCLAIR??
Me: Is... is Sinclair Valen?
Me: THE ONE IS DELENN?? [I was legit confused about this, as it turns out]
Me: A MINBARI NOT BORN OF MINBARI
Me: He IS VALEN
Me: THE THINGIE THAT TURNS MINBARI INTO HUMANS
Me: AND APPARENTLY VICE VERSA
Me: ALL THAT STUFF IN PARLIAMENT OF DREAMS STARTS TO MAKE SENSE
Me: JMS HAS BEEN PLANNING ALL THIS SINCE S1?????????????????
Me: HE IS LEGIT CRAZY
