#babylon 5 #b5 #for once it's not an incorrect quote #source: @therighthandofvengeance #in this house we respect value and cherish the women of b5 #Ivanova was the inspiration for this post but it applies to basically every female-presenting character that ever appears on the station #and president luchenko #“could” is the operative word here #maybe not julie mustante. but her *position* would could be used to bring down earthgov.#but also: Delenn & Lyta & Talia & Na’Toth &—#just sayin’

#Babylon 5 #b5 #for once it's not an incorrect quote #b5 alignment chart #in this house we respect value and cherish the women of b5 #lyta alexander #susan ivanova #delenn of mir #elizabeth lochley #here’s my reasoning:#lyta’s been societally conditioned to be a hugger #Ivanova can’t ask for anything from anyone- especially as it pertains to emotions and emotional well-being #minbari aren’t super tactile with each other but Delenn is part human… I think she genuinely forgets that Hugs do in fact Exist #and lochley only denies herself personal space in order to prove a point #like following Garibaldi around the station when she offered her help with his alcoholism

Yes, Delenn started a war. Yeah, that's objectively bad. But do we really think that EarthGov would have given anyone the courtesy of asking about why they killed a significant (political) figure before committing massive violations of the Geneva Convention?

Obviously we shouldn't condone this behavior- but let's at least give it some perspective:

It's literally her first day on the job. she just finished her internship the night before

she's been trained for this role and this role alone, her life experience is limited at best and nonexistent at worst

her mentor just died -> that's essentially going from training wheels on flat and even ground, with a helmet to a unicycle on a mountain during fire season... uphill

nobody really cared about what she said until 20 minutes ago when she became One of Them

there were four other members of the Grey Council that were pro-war, she didn't decide to go to war by herself

#babylon 5 #b5 #delenn of mir #satai delenn #for once it’s not an incorrect quote #grey council #earth minbari war #i am having thoughts #in this house we respect value and cherish the women of b5 #and dukaht was also a religious leader #but my point still stands #I feel like so much blame is thrown onto her when half of her co-workers completely agreed with her #she's hamlet prince of denmark when you think about it #impulsive as anyone else but has to ponder death at every opportunity #the one character that can't make a rash decision but makes many rash decisions in the process of abstaining from the larger one #and yes I know the Geneva convention is for human wars but there's got to be some equivalent or another #feel free to add on

G’Kar: you really like to cause problems.

Na’Toth: that’s not true. I don’t cause problems, I *am* said problems.
