HAHAHA. Yes, it had to be Talia. I really have always loved the idea of The Adventures of Young Talia And Lyta In Psi Corps Academy, and this was kind of like that, except with Susan!
The PSi Corps is rather fascinating, isn't it?
(And yet, the new ship is still not YOUR ship. But that always is the way of things, isn't it?)
Ah, well. It's all good; I've been shocked at the number of Michael/Susan fans coming out of the woodwork since I started writing them, both on LJ and FFN. I had no idea so many people shipped my alternapair! Validation, yay!
I REALLY MIGHT WRITE THAT. I'm so bad at Five Things fics, though, because I always write FOUR things and then can't write the fifth one.
Write a Four Things fic? (Mine was nearly a four things fic. Then I decided to go with the one-per-season thing, and really needed a fifth, so.)
I have SO MANY STORIES that just need a last scene.
OH, I HEAR YOU. Fanfic Amnesty Day? (Although most of mine are missing last scene(s) because I realized along the way that they were OMG CHEESY, and ran away from them, so I'm not sure how eager I am to put them up online. Er. Maybe I should've grabbed a Cliche Bingo card and finished up some things for it.)
So perhaps I will write "An Unspecified Number Of Scenes Where Susan Joined The Psi Corps And Talia Was Also There." Heee.
Doooooo eeeeeeeeet.
Actually, I feel like the fact that she didn't choose Garibaldi is the greatest case for how Control really didn't have that much influence over the direction of her life. Because really. It's so obvious. She could have had that man wrapped around her finger in no time, and would have totally been in their secret rebellion cabal, and caused great problems for everyone.
Oh, I like the way you think! That makes a lot of sense.
And for my New Ship Of The Week, it's also interesting to consider what would have happened if Talia had stayed around for the whole series, playing a lot of the role that Lyta played (presumably), except that Ivanova would have had this ongoing emotional relationship happening while all the crazy ish was going down.
Hmmm. GOOD QUESTION. I think one of them still would've kicked the bucket by the end, just because Susan's life is THAT TRAGIC.
And what would the Psi Corps have done once B5 pulled away from Earth with Talia still on board?
Probably kidnapped her. Or somehow taken down the station. They aren't letting her go that easily. :D
no subject
