Vid: "West of the Moon and East of the Sun" [B5, Sheridan/Delenn]

[icepixie]

One day I'm going to finish fiddling with my big B5 ensemble vid. For now, a shorter, sadder one that walked up to me and demanded to be made.

Title: West of the Moon and East of the Sun
Song/Artist: "A Good Day (Morning Song)," Priscilla Ahn
Summary: John Sheridan was an optimist to the very end. Based largely around "Sleeping in Light."
Length: 2:37
Note: Given how many similarities B5 bears to LOTR, I felt it only right that I get the title from Return of the King. The full quotation is, "A day will come at last when I / Shall take the hidden paths that run / West of the Moon, East of the Sun."

Nothing much to say except "Wow, well done." I haven't watched B5 in years and yet it still made me remember all of the... angst isn't really the right term, but that's the closest I can think of right now - of the last episode. Seriously, I don't care if a person dies, it's the memorials and seeing how everyone *else* reacts to them being gone that usually gets me. This video really captured that feeling.

I must now go watch something fluffy to cheer me up, though. Thanks a lot. :p~~~~~

Thank you! You've described exactly what I was going for here; not angst exactly, but the extreme bittersweetness inherent in the last episode and in how Delenn especially remembers Sheridan.

Heh. Possibly I should've included a tissue warning?

You've definitely captured that. ;)

And I, personally, didn't need tissues, but there was most assuredly heart string tugging. Of course, I am also not exactly known for my steller emotional displays, so I suppose it might be worthy of a tissue warning. :)
