Fifteen wild badgers living in my trousers

This is a Marcus Cole (from Babylon 5) appreciation blog. Blog title originates from the quote "And they have much to be concerned about. There's always the threat of an attack by, say, a giant space dragon—the kind that eats the sun every 30 days? It's a nuisance, but what can you expect from reptiles? Did I mention that my nose is on fire, and that I have 15 wild badgers living in my trousers?"

Marcus Cole Appreciation Post.

Ivanova: *to giant floating head thing-y* The enemy you have fought before has returned. In order to fight the Shadows, we've formed an alliance with others. The Great Machine on Epsilon 3, the Minbari, the Vorlons-

Head: *flashes lights, thunders and yells gibberish*

Marcus: I think you've just hit a nerve. The Vorlons must owe them money or something.

Ivanova: At least it tells us they understand our language; they're just not willing to speak to us in it.

Marcus: Who knew they were French? Sorry.

Marcus Cole; master the Minbari fighting pike, sass, sarcasm and sorry/not sorry.

Bad Guy: *groans*

Marcus: Excuse me. *crosses to Bad Guy, leans down, shouts* Hello?! *grabs Bad Guy in a head lock* This is your wake up call!

Bad Guy: Aww, c'mon, gimme a break...

Marcus: Certainly, what would you like? An arm, a leg? We're fresh out of broken hearts; we've just had a run on those. How about we start with your fingers and work our way up?

Bad Guy: Uhh... Maybe, maybe, um... Maybe I have some information. A name?

Marcus: You see? It's like I've always said. You can get more with a kind word and a two-by-four than you can with just a kind word.

Most of the time, Marcus is an eager yet sarcastic puppy bouncing around Babylon 5 - "play with me, Ivanova, Garibaldi, play with me!". There are times, however, when he gets really fucking scary. And his hotness factor increases by a factor of ten, in my opinion. =D

I may or may not have told Jason Carter I run this blog when I met him at Space City Con last Saturday.

And I may or may not have been hugged by him.

Touch passion when it comes your way, especially when it calls you by name

Oh, and the other reason I love “A Late Delivery from Avalon"

MARCUS MARCUS MARCUS MARCUS MARCUS

Also Dr Franklin.

They have an interesting dynamic in this episode. The main question - is it better to live in a pleasant delusion, or face an unbearable reality?

I don’t know who came up with these animorph menus but they are an endless source of hilarity.

there’s an AU somewhere these two characters actually got together and had pretty pretty pretty children

It’s like I always say, you get more with a kind word and a two-by-four than with just a kind word.

We live for the one, we die for the one.

So I’m re-watching Babylon 5 (I have reasons don’t judge) and can we just take a moment to appreciate this beautiful beast.

[fyeahmarcuscole]

Take all the time you want, love, we're appreciating too.

Susan and Marcus both had brothers that died in war, and they both took up their mantles when they passed on.
