This scene is interesting because it reminds me that I’m a confusing and contradictory person.
Not in a “riddle wrapped in a mystery” way, it’s in the most ridiculous way possible.
I mean, part of me wants to say that this is an important character scene, for Londo and G’Kar, obviously, but also for Delenn, because she wants them to be a symbol, yes, but she also probably wants to shift the public’s focus, at least a little, off of herself and Sheridan and onto Londo and G’Kar.
But also because she probably came to regret her decision to matchmake fairly strongly, later on. Later, after Centauri Prime is attacked and they return to the station without Londo, and G’Kar leaves with Lyta in a much worse state, emotionally, than he had been before. She probably wondered how she ever forgot that G’Kar doesn’t do anything halfway, and even if he did, she is surrounded by evidence that devoting your life to someone is not something anyone does halfway.
She’d make peace with this, later, of course. After they’ve died, and she’d realized that really, it hadn’t been her fault. She had no way of knowing that it was too late to save G’Kar the second he’d first laid eyes on Londo, that he’d always been beyond help.
But like part of me also wants to go “lol the way I capped this makes it look like they’re propositioning Londo for a threesome”
