Also, Londo could not possibly have managed to find a friend who is more likely to punch the future in the throat if it gets in the way of what he feels is right or threatens the people he loves.

This is a true fact and I also love this sentence.

[edit] I'm sure that Delenn fully empathizes with the entire feeling of "This himbo, war criminal, and enemy of my people is now mine, and anyone who even thinks about laying a finger on him can fuck right off before they find my teeth in their throat." She and G'Kar should have a nice non-alcoholic drink sometime.

Seconding this motion.

[edit edit] Actually, this parallel pinpoints a major reason that Sheridan made a much better partner for Delenn than I can imagine from Sinclair, by which I mean that even though the doubling of the rebirth ceremony as a marriage ceremony in "The Parliament of Dreams" was clearly supposed to point to Sinclair/Delenn, Sheridan/Delenn is so much more complicated, interpersonally, politically, interculturally. Sinclair always had that contemplative element which translated so well into his reinvention as Valen. Minbar was planetarily allergic to Sheridan and when confronted with most of its customs, he returned the favor.

Adding it promptly to the ever-growing list.

Huzzah.
