Maybe? That's one of the (many) weird things about her transformation, I think - are we meant to believe that the transformation sort of "knew" she'd need to reproduce with a Human? Is she now more Human than Minbari? Or would she be able to reproduce with either?
This is pretty much Lennier's best episode, isn't it?
I think it is, yeah. Which... it's sad to me, how little that's saying.
I bet it didn't last very long, though, or things would've gotten really awkward in the however many years he was her mentor.
Yeah, I figure it was the kind of thing that melted away over time... which presumably is why she wasn't concerned when she realized Lennier had a crush on her. She figured he'd get over it as he grew up, just like she did with her crush on Dukhat. The difference being that presumably she didn't have to hover around watching (and helping!) Dukhat woo his wife and all that, and Delenn is so absurdly confident in herself anyway that it's kind of hard to imagine her not getting over something like that as soon as it became clear it wasn't her Destiny. Poor Lennier.
I'm not sure we're shown any Minbari/Minbari relationship that isn't teacher/studenty, aside from Neroon v. Delenn and Lennier.
Well, we do get Delenn and Mayan (fellow students), and then there's the whole Branmer and Delenn thing, which is ambiguous (I don't think we're ever precisely let in on what Delenn's relationship to Branmer was). But yeah, the teacher/student thing does seem to be a major theme with them.
I'm totally blanking on this. Is it from S5?
I am, too, and I have absolutely no idea. All I remember is flailing about how annoying he was... at some point. I feel like he was one of the Humans who... deals with Sheridan... somehow. Eh, it doesn't matter. *Headdesk*
