i don’t know if lyta is wearing a weird coat, or has a boob-window straight jacket, but wow that is wonky looking

aw, g'kar~  why is this man so lovely

everyone is slowly leaving the station.  this is maybe slightly less killing me than everyone doing it all at once like ds9, but jeez

Haha, I’m sorry, these are not terribly insightful.  

(It IS a boobwindow straight jacket.  Who the fuck does this.)

annnnd this episode is about garibaldi (yawn) and lyta (yawn) with a hint of g'kar (~*~*~*~)

i’m mostly okay with this

I don’t think my heart could have taken more of Londo this rapid fire. But I’m constantly like ‘but what is happening to him? how MUCH MORE HORRIBLE is it???' 

I still wish this confrontation between the Captain and Garibaldi was him and Ivanova instead.

The biggest songs of 2014 were “Let it go” and “Shake it off” so I think everyone agrees that whatever “it” is, sucks.

“it” is probably 2014 as a whole

aha don’t worry not your distress so much but your thoughts and opinions and reaction and whatnot. I think you posting in the same way about DS9 is part of what got me to watch that so maybe I’ll put B5 into the To Watch pile.

Do it, do it

Share in my misery

You have followed me through legit nearly every major fandom I have done on Tumblr, that has been remarkable as fuck to me. You were there for 2/Jamie, we did original shit together, you got on the DS9 train… I am always so happy to see that you are still here and that we share so much rad shit (Johnny still blows me away every single time I consider it).  

and with that sincere nod toward friendship, sentient carpets, space coffee, and Jamie rubbing history for your pleasure, I invite you to watch something else that will wreck your life, because ds9 was not enough

(you have no idea how useless i was at work today, it is REALLY GOOD that I didn’t have anything to do because I legit got up this morning and wondered if I could fit an episode of this show onto my phone to watch over lunch)

lostthehat replied to your post:this episode’s alternate title is ‘Everything You…

I’ve never watched B5 and have no idea what’s going on but I’ve enjoyed reading your posts on it in a way.

I am glad to hear that my distress is entertaining, haha.   

I have to see if my grandmother still has her action figures.  Maybe she’ll be willing to part with them now that she’s nearly 20 years divorced from the thing and super into Buffy

Then I can flop on the floor dead with plastic effigies of this show and the shattered wreckage of my wounded soul. 

i haven’t even fucking finished it yet

but you should all do this too

“Yes, we won the war, but what did we lose?" 

*show cuts to Londo alone in the dark*

*I throw things*

*except not really, because if my friend knew I was this invested she’d be concerned and I’m not prepared for that level of shame, but I AM IMAGINING IT REALLY HARD*

fucking hell it’s a londo montage to solemn ringing bells i hate everything oh my fucking god

this episode’s alternate title is ’Everything You Love Is Hovering Near Breaking Your Heart, And The Writers Are Laughing At You’

I’m finding some of this as distressing as the mirror episodes of DS9, and yet i have to keep going or it will torture me :C

everything is awful I can’t stop frowning deeply, like I can feel parts of my face aggressively folding over in despair

Lennier being lovely and -

oh no, here is Vir looking distressed and upset and he’s looking for londo because of course he is and nooooo londo i hate that this is happening my heart is broken

God, this is terrible.  All the shit with Londo is destroying me.  It’s so incredibly painful to know that no one knows what is happening with him.  Like he’s actually been super changed and is doing incredible shit and trying to do what he can, but there is no way for anyone to know this and my heart dies watching this.   Like the last thing he did before horrible octopus thing that was cracked off that other dude’s chest invaded was try to hint at G'Kar that shit was going down.  

i am dead from londo mollari, pretty much.   i need to scream about this and yet all i can do is frown deeply and comedically in the corner of this couch

Thrill in my adventures of keeping this so vague that anyone who has not seen this has NO IDEA what the fuck I am talking about. Yay.  

Isn’t it funny? You don’t know when you become invested in things, like, I couldn’t exactly say when I was like, ‘Yes, I think I am extremely tied up in this shit’, but I know it definitely happened.  I don’t know the exact moment when I said, 'Fuck, I need this,’ but I feel that way now.   I started this show with some real difficulty for a variety reasons that are still buried in my 'lady watches b5’ tag, but somewhere it became A Thing.   I think this is why it’s a good show to marathon?  You can sort of just let it be a thing for the first seasonish.  You get used to people, comfortable with them, and then suddenly there is some shit and you are trying to watch 20 episodes in a weekend. (You can do it!  You can do more than that, even. I may speak from experience.)

These posts are alternately broken up tumblr fangirl outbursts and answers to essay questions.  This is how I roll, Tumblr.

my video is paused on Londo talking through smoke and clouds and dressed in white bling and i am filled with ungood, but I am kind of pleased that I am so tortured over it.  It feels just as horrible-good as watching ds9’s final spiral of horrible shit left and right. 

god i hope someone is enjoying reading these, but on the realistic side of things, i’m sure you’re all blocking this tag, haha
