EXTREMELY funny how talia’s first reaction to ambassador kosh is just “this fucking guy.”

everyone else is (rightfully) intimidated by the incredible power and mystique of the vorlons, but until kosh starts really fucking with her, he’s just the most annoying customer she’s ever had. fucking hour of scampering. are you kidding.

@ god are you hearing this shit.

DAAAANG. He doesn't just look otherworldy, he sounds otherworldly too! I love that mysterious droning that happens before and during the times he speaks.

Also was he a disembodied light for some time or something? Really gives the vibe of a superior being, but he sounds so gentle despite that. Really, REALLY sick character lol, holy crap.

also did he just do the yes meme agkmglm

I was unfamiliar with kosh so I had to check him out and...

Damn. I really get you. This is sick

Oh hi Val xD

OH MY GOOOOD YESSS

This is all I can find to show!!! He always speaks in riddles and had such chemistry with the protagonist of further seasons of the series, Captain Sheridan… My mom didn't get why I was so excited when Kosh was on the screen... xD

some thoughts about Deathwalker:

my favorite thing about babylon 5 has always been the conversations between the ambassadors and their aides. the show is not always a story from the perspective of the human characters - sometimes you get a window into how the aliens interact with each other when humans aren't around. I really liked the scene between Na'Toth and G'Kar about why she attacked Jha'dur. if it had been her explaining herself to a human like Sinclair or Garibaldi, the cultural practice underlying her desire for revenge would have been portrayed as "alien" and less legitimate. but instead she tells it to G'Kar, who understands her completely and tells her that her behavior was right (he says that she wouldn't be narn if she felt differently, and that he's proud of her!) and therefore we the audience are reassured that her motivations are not to be dismissed. it was refreshing to see G'Kar take her side and only tell her to wait because it was necessary for political maneuvering

the plotline with Talia was kind of upsetting - I don't think I appreciated when I watched the show for the first time in college how violating that experience would be, and Sinclair and Garibaldi were so nonchalant about it at the end. Talia was like "Kosh hired me under dubious circumstances, exposed me to terrifying stimuli, and recorded my thoughts without consent presumably with the intention of using them later to hurt me" and Sinclair and Garibaldi were like "lol yeah he's a wild one". I guess there's nothing they can do about it but still yikes

why was Garibaldi allowed to go through Jha'dur's stuff when she was unconscious, seems ethically questionable

my opinion of G'Kar is so heavily influenced by how he is in the later seasons, I forgot how slimy he is in season 1. I think he experiences the most character growth of any of the cast.

Lennier is the guy we all know who's way too into military history
