Why this must be read:
"In an attempt to show some empathy towards a mourning ally, Sheridan finds himself in a highly uncomfortable -- and highly provocative -- situation."
This fic just tore my heart out. It's all about Lyta's fight for her humanity, to be recognized as something more than just a tool in the hands of the Corps/the Vorlons/the Alliance after she's played the part they want in their wars. It's also about Lyta and John Sheridan's mutual connection to Kosh, and how Lyta clings to that--and John's simple kindnesses--as a way to find that human connection again. There's a long, slow buildup of sexual tension, but it isn't just porn for the sake of porn. Read this for a fantastic character study of Lyta Alexander, or for the hotness amidst the angst, or for both!
