I'm stuck with the hilarious but awesome mental image of Delenn just sort of up and picking up Sheridan at some point, and him being all "BWUH?" Because of course she'd have spent the past however-many 15 or so years pretending that she was a Delicate Flower of Femininity because her research indicates that Human men might get a little freaked by the idea of a girl half their size who can, you know, pick them up and throw them over her shoulder.
I had to run downstairs in the middle of the night to turn off my computer because we were having a thunderstorm, but I of course had to check my email first, and let me just say that this is not the type of thing one should read in the middle of the night vaguely asleep. I laughed hard enough, I'm surprised I didn't wake the neighbors.
Can you imagine? God, can you even imagine Delenn, teeny, tiny Delenn of the series, just picking Sheridan up and carrying him around somewhere? Because we can't just ignore The Gathering, it's totally canon and referenced throughout the show, so that means that Delenn totally could just pick up grown men and carry them around.
Ugh, thanks for reminding me of that scene in "GROPOS." That is one of a scant handful of moments from the whole series where I'm just like, "Mira, honey, no." Much like your reaction to her vaudeville "gasp!" the other day. She's playing it like she's very angry, but the script has her being this scared little girl, and it's just the weirdest disconnect that doesn't work at all.
