Babylon 5 Update for 2 - 25 - 2018

[alexcat]

I update once every 2 weeks (or so) with fiction, challenges etc. Please feel free to contact me if you have news or anything you think needs to be featured here. Just send me a PM at alexcat or post it to the update and I’ll include it the next time.

Another fortnight has passed and here we are again, bringing you the latest update in the Babylon world. Hope you enjoy it. We are winding up our rewatch of the series at b5_revisited and will be beginning Crusade, which is a favorite of mine. March is approaching - those windy March days are a good time to watch Babylon reruns!
