Fic: Though I Walk Through the Valley, chapter 2 [Babylon 5]
Second chapter has been posted on AO3! The rest of the story is slowly starting to take shape in my mind, although that also means I'm starting to realize just how many loose ends are going to need tying up before it's all done, eep! *takes deep breaths* One chapter at a time, and we'll get there...

As always, any feedback or discussion is welcome!
(All her life Timov had loathed being a nobleman's wife, a pretty trinket to parade in front of others. She'd long stopped thinking of herself as pretty, but the rest was no less true today than it had ever been. Except where once she had defied Londo openly, flaunting her insolence for everyone to see, right now she felt strangely protective of him. Centauri emperors did not generally lead long, fruitful lives.)
