G'kar - Tumblr Posts

g'kar slowly rises from his seat and takes a step toward londo
a close up of g'kar's face: "no dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever."
the camera angle switches so that g'kar is in the foreground, in profile and we can see londo's reaction (mild disgust). g'kar continues: "there is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom." londo opens his mouth to speak but doesn't.
g'kar continues: "against that power, governments, tyrants, and armies cannot stand." the camera pans over to delenn and sheridan who are watching g'kar with a sense of admiration and respect.
the camera is back to g'kar: "the centauri learned this lesson once."
camera switches back to g'kar in profile with londo behind him. g'kar continues: "we will teach it to them again."
g'kar continues: "though it take a thousand years," he then turns to face londo and tells him emphatically: "we will be free."
g'kar lets that sink in for a moment there is a hint of fear behind londo's scowl. g'kar turns away from him.
the camera shifts to show an overhead view of the council chambers. everyone watches in silence as g'kar exits.

babylon 5 season 2 episode 20: the long, twilight struggle

I'm ever so slowly re-uploading my old vids that got lost when various older streaming or filesharing services died. Hoping Vimeo is going to last a while, and I can fly under the radar there better than on YouTube.

Fandom: Babylon 5 Song: "Apocalypse Lullaby" by The Wailin' Jennies Vidder: icepixie Summary: "In the end, it would hold--because what is built endures. And what is loved endures. And Babylon 5...Babylon 5 endures."

Originally created in 2011.

Bashir would absolutely love playing a Ranger and Kira and Ivanova would get along so well. 

But think - Kira and G’Kar.  Depending at what point in their character development they are at they would either be exchanging Molotov Cocktail recipes or having an incredible deep, spiritual and personal conversation about working with their oppressors against a greater threat, channeling anger in productive ways, the nature of forgiveness and that a person or a people do not necessarily need to forgive or give up their anger to find peace and healing and a new way forward. 

Oh my god. So I’m writing dialogue for Bashir, and I’m trying the lines out in my head in his accent, and goddammit if he isn’t morphing into Marcus Cole because, to this American’s ears, they have basically the same accent.

And then I had the thought–what if Babylon 5 were somehow historical in the Trek verse, and they had holoprograms of it? And Julian plays a Ranger, because OF COURSE HE DOES?

I’m trying to figure out if Jadzia would be a Minbari or a Centauri. Maybe a Minbari who sleeps with a Centauri. You know, for the appendages.

(Garak would ABSOLUTELY play Delenn, though. And I feel like Kira and Ivanova would ditch the plotline of the program and have a long, satisfying, coffee-fueled bitch session together.)

If tumblr had been around when Babylon 5 first aired, I swear this website would have been obsessed with Londo and G'Kar.

Listen. LISTEN. They are bound by fate. They circle each other like binary stars. When they're around each other, they flare like comets that get to close to the sun. They may well be destined to crush all life between them with the intensity of their will.

Tumblr would not have been normal about them, and I would have been HERE for it.
