Currently ruuger is hosting the annual Babylon 5 Love Month on livejournal: a month-long fannish celebration of all things related to B5 and Crusade! A bunch of lovely things have been posted already, with many more to follow, so don't forget to stop by babylon5_love and have a look if you'd like to join in the squee. 

This year I made two contributions, one of them a short Londo/Timov missing scene fic. I'd actually been planning on writing smut for this pairing, but the characters just kept talking and talking and refused to shut up - which, knowing it's Londo and Timov we're talking about, honestly shouldn't have surprised me - so I didn't actually reach the smut part, though I might remedy that in the future. Hope you enjoy this nonetheless!

Even though this isn't the last chapter yet, it almost feels like it is, because so much happens in this one. And that's only the abridged version - if I'd put everything in this chapter that I originally wanted to, I'm pretty sure I'd have been writing forever. That said, I hope I didn’t rush things too much; at one point, it felt like I was just racing from plot point to plot point trying to tie it all up without losing momentum, and I’m still not quite sure if I managed to avoid that trap. Also, because I was fretting so much about not turning this chapter into a huge melodrama, I might have overcompensated and made it too clinical instead. But chances are if I’d have gone for more drama, I would have ended up being just as worried that I took it too far, because that's me as well. :)

Anyway, after this chapter there’s one more, and then an epilogue, but I have good hopes (fingers crossed) that, now the toughest bit is done, it’s just gonna be riding the rollercoaster all the way down!

Title: Though I Walk Through the Valley (13/15)
Fandom: Babylon 5
Category/Rating: gen-ish (with some background pairings), PG-13
Story summary: What really happened during those sixteen long years in which Londo waited for the prophecies to come true? A multi-chapter story, intended to bridge the gap between Londo’s ascension to the throne and Centauri Prime’s eventual liberation from the Drakh.

(In which Vir is shocked; Timov has the last word; G’Kar makes a promise; and Londo prepares in the only way he can.)
