If I could find it I would point you to a discussion of sex on the continuum I got into at one point on my LJ. Suffice it to say, I can imagine almost any pairing, but do think that some are just not indicated in canon (not that I've ever let that stop me. Lennier/Ivanova anyone?), and definitely there are some that don't DO anything for me. Your mileage, of course, may vary. Londo and G'Kar are shown in canon in heterosexual relationships solely. Does that mean nothing else could ever happen? Of course not. We don't even know their culture's attitudes towards homo or bi or omnisexuality. Might be totally accepted. Might be okay for the upper echelon. Might be okay for males but not for females. Who knows? Have at it! There's certainly enough emotional entanglement there. Not enough for me, but it is there.
Short answer, you're not guilty of anything in particular.
I will quibble with this: "Because, much as I enjoy the sex, I'm just as happy to read and write fic about them that sticks purely to friendship - as do most other fans of the pairing." I do find plenty of slash fans who insist on their interpretation over all others, and as a result, there's a lot more slash than gen out there...but as I am not keeping a tally, I could well be wrong.
There was more to this rambling excuse for a comment, but my brain's fried tonight.
