Morden: “What do you want?”
Vir: “I want to live just long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike, as a warning to the next ten generations that some favours come with too high a price. I would look up on your lifeless face and wave, like this. Can you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?”
- Vir’s proving that he’s not just a pretty face, “In the Shadow if Z’ha’dum”.
Also:
1. The plot is turning out to be nearly identical to that of Neverwinter Nights.
2. The show’s constant references to 20th century “pop” culture isn’t making me enjoy it any less. ‘Cos he Earth transports Asimov and Heyerdahl, and a technomage named Elric who quotes Gandalf as “a saying”? Almost worthy of a nerdgasm, in my little world. (Also, there is a point in The Geometry of Shadows where Londo gets stuck with 500,000 shares in Firefly Incorporated. Man, I’m looking forward to watching Firefly again this summer!
)
3. Sheridan is a walking, talking cliché, and he makes me miss Sinclair.
4. The show’s just getting better and better. Sure, Loki’s point about the foreshadowing being a little too obvious when the show’s watched at a pace faster than one episode per week, but my crappy memory for these things gives me a couple surprises anyway.
5. It’s still far from as good as BSG, a show whose second season I have to finish before next Wednesday, when I believe NRK is gonna start airing season 3.

The Firefly-thing has NOTHING to do with Joss, as season 2 of B5 is nine years older than “Firefly”.
Sheridan grows on you, I strongly disliked him at first, too. Then again; I liked Sinclair, so what do I know.
NRK is airing season 3? From the voice-over on the ending credits last night, I assumed they wouldn’t.

Also, I’m not sure on what authority you have it that Vir has a pretty face, but I guess I’ll take your word for it.

Of course it doesn’t, I just thought it was a funny coincidence.
“NRK is airing season 3? From the voice-over on the ending credits last night, I assumed they wouldn’t.”
That’s the kind of things not keeping up with my favourite shows gets me. Crap.

What, you don’t like chubby little Centauri?

The voice-over, as I remember, was “…and that was the last episode of this series.” So not a guarantee they’re not airing the rest, but it certainly seems like they won’t, calling the episode the last of the show when it isn’t.
> What, you don’t like chubby little Centauri?
You mean, like, for food? ‘Cause dude, that’s gross and also slightly disturbing.

There’s no BSG next Wednesday, at least…
“Cause dude, that’s gross and also slightly disturbing.”
What? What if they taste like chicken?

Then even more so, chicken’s not good.
