* ''Comments'': Not that I’m inclined to read a lot of it, but I’ve never seen a CrackPairing work so well. It’s subtle, doesn’t overstay its welcome and though Cartagia seemed oddly lacking in sexual deviancy on the show for a [[TheCaligula Caligula]] [[{{Expy}} expy]] - even Londo is surprised - the Emperor’s mercurial nature and love of coercing those around him for his own amusement makes it feel quite in-character. As does, strangely, Londo paraphrasing OscarWilde, which seemed just like something [[Creator/JMichaelStraczynski JMS]] would’ve thought to do.

* ''Synopsis'': With the Shadow War over, John and Delenn can finally plan their wedding... but as usual on B5, the course of true love doesn't quite run smooth. Especially when Delenn's mother shows up to evaluate the prospective groom... Slight AU from Season 4.
* ''Comments'': I very nearly put this in the Shipping Fics section, because this really has great John/Dellen, but there's so much more than the romance going on here. There's Delenns difficult relationship with her mother, Garabaldis growing distance from his friends, and some action packed scenes.

* ''Comments'': Not only is this a great Marcus/Neroon fic, but it is well steeped in B5 lore. While the story is about the romance, Neroon has some wonderful moments with Garabaldi, Lennir, and Delenn. Both Neroon and Marcus are perfectly in character, and their budding relationship feels natural and very sweet.

* Recommended by EDP
* ''Synopsis'': Set in a continuity where the Dilgar managed to stop Earthforce-League advance at Balos and a reduced Dilgar Imperium survived with Alaca as throneworld. Everything else continues as business, until the disastrous first contact between Earth and the Minbari. And as soon as they hear of this, and before Earth can actually realize how effective the Minbari stealth is, the Dilgar offer Earth blueprints and samples of sensors capable to break the Minbari stealth, giving Earth the one fighting chance it needed.

''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4136539/1/The_Deep_Sleep The Deep Sleep]]'' by Laurie M (technically-AU)
* Recommended by @/{{PandaFox}}
* ''Synopsis'': Garibaldi takes one blow to the head too many and soon finds himself living the life of a hard-boiled detective back on Earth.
* ''Comments'': A truly wonderful tribute to hard-boiled fiction in the vein of Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe. Laurie M nails every detail of the classic detective story from the first-person narration to the slang of the period in this fic. Every member of the main cast and quite a few of the supporting cast members make an appearance in one way or another. Despite being set in the 1940’s/1950’s of New York, the author does a great job of adapting each character’s essential personality to the story and tying them into the plot without making it feel forced. Definitely worth a read for fans of B5 and hardboiled novels. Some romance corresponding to in-canon relationships''.
