And the Great Maker said let there be cats

He suggests a cup of tea. Not even booze or anything. Just tea. And diaries. And a pit in her stomach when she knows what they need to discuss. She has had this talk before. More than once. And while it is hardly his fault that the Minbari chose him…

“I will need you to guard the station and wrangle the diplomats,” he smiles weakly. “I know you can do that, but I hoped to stick around until my replacement arrives.”

“We received an invitation to a party, Ambassador.” Lennier’s eyes are cast to the floor. “The humans wish to celebrate the anniversary of our surrender.”

“You disapprove.”

“I will attend if you wish for me to escort you.”

“That you will,” she rests gentle fingers beneath his chin, “Lennier, they wish to celebrate their people’s survival, not our people’s shame.”

“Do you want me to select gifts appropriate to the occasion?”

“Yes, and it is time to ask the seamstresses to meet us. We should show how much we appreciate their gesture of reconciliation.”

It will happen. It must happen. It already has happened. And it will happen again. They have to steal Babylon 4. He has to take it to the past. Give up everything about his old life to begin a new life on a world where his destiny is already written.

Sorry I forgot to post this list last night - I was FaceTiming my mom in preparation for the model horse show next weekend and forgot.  ><  Thank you to everyone who continues to send in drabbles, and I’m excited to see what you have in store this time.  As always, feel free to send drabbles for any prompt, either past or present.

For those of you who are new to the project:

How It Works: Every  other Friday (don’t hold me to this, please, but I’m going to try my   best), I’ll post a list of five prompts (most of which have been sent in  by you guys!) to write drabbles on.  A drabble is exactly 100 words.   Not 99, not 101.  100 on the dot.  You may write on one prompt, all   five prompts, or any number in between.  You may also write as many drabbles as you want on a particular prompt.  While I am asking for fics of 100 words for this challenge, if inspiration strikes you with a   particular prompt, I won’t be offended if you take it and run with it.

In  order to have your drabble posted to the blog, please MESSAGE ME WITH A  LINK TO THE DRABBLE ONCE IT’S POSTED ON YOUR ACCOUNT!  I’ll then reblog  it to this blog, which serves as a place to keep our drabble collection.

Drabbles are to be Babylon 5 related.  Obviously.

The Rules:
 -Rule  #1: BE NICE. No pooping in other people’s Fruit Loops. If somebody   wants to write about two characters smooching who you don’t think should  be smooching, that doesn’t give you the right to be mean to that person  or make negative comments about their work or views.   People work  really hard on their writing, even when it’s only 100 words, so keep  your comments NICE.  Be nice to all participants, be nice to yourself,  just basically be nice to everyone.  (Exception: you don’t necessarily  have to be nice to the characters.  Because if y’all have ever read my  fanfictions, you know just how much I looooooove to be mean to the B5  characters…one in particular…) -Rule #2: No NSFW. Mainly, I really  don’t want to read about nekkid Minbari or Vir’s tentacle dicks (can I  get off this example train now?  I regret so many things) or anything of  that nature.  If you are unhappy with this, feel free to start your own  B5 NSFW drabble collective.  No judgement. Just here is not the place. -Rule #3: Tag your triggers.  (Basically, see Rule #1.) *Also,  please leave (positive) feedback for other people’s drabbles -   sometimes a little nice comment can make all the difference! *And,   please message me with prompt ideas!  We ALWAYS need more prompts!  You might not see your idea immediately, but it WILL come around. Please contact this blog or me personally (Mod @traveller19) with any questions.

Here  is the prompt list for 3/29/19!  The official writing period for these  will end on 4/12/19, although you’re always welcome to write on and submit  for previous prompts.

Prompts:

1. Party

2. Tea

3. Orange (from sysanya’s alphabetical prompt list)

4. Pivotal (from sysanya’s alphabetical prompt list)

5. Cuddle

Thank you guys so much!  :D :D :D  Also please reblog this post so #b5drabbleproject gets more visibility!

“Come in “

She enters the ambassadorial quarters, and studies the floor.

A soft sigh greets her.

“Five of your caste now outnumber two of the warrior caste and two of my own. Will you not look up?”

“We were honored by your decision, Entil’zha Delenn.” But it has not changed our nature.

“Have you been told why I asked to see you?”

She inclines her head.

The humans loathe her. The Minbari despise her. What she has become. It is perhaps the first time that her people and their former enemies are of one mind about anything. And each slight, each insult… is it deserved? Has she acted rashly once more, without thinking?

Prophecy appears so much wiser before one faces the consequences every day in the mirror. But Kosh supported the decision… How could he be mistaken?

“Delenn?”

She smiles at her young aide. “Yes, Lennier?”

“Valen said that ‘Revenge is a Wild Justice which we must seek to weed out among ourselves’ as he explained why we must not kill other Minbari…”

“I am aware of this.”

It’s time for another round of drabble prompts!  Sorry for not posting any of my own this time - I’ve had a lot going on and am trying to focus on other projects at the moment, but hopefully I’ll get caught up soon.  Thank you to everyone who continues to send in drabbles, and I’m excited to see what you have in store this time.  As always, feel free to send drabbles for any prompt, either past or present.
