Ships that I Ship: Day 53: Delenn/John

[coprime]

Canon: Babylon 5
Pairing: Delenn/John Sheridan
Canon Level: Married

When I was a bitty coprime, I used to watch this show every week with my mom, and both of us were rooting for Delenn and John throughout the series. Theirs was clearly a love for the ages, and they managed to make it work! There really wasn't anything more I could ask for. But to elaborate as much as I can given that the show is over two decades old and I wasn't fannish back then in the way I am now, Delenn as a character has always been one I've looked up to and admired--her strength and convictions, her desire to make things better, and her serene grace. And their romance reminded me of a great romance novel, complete with marriage and a kid (even if it was more of a happy-for-now than a happily ever after).
