RITUALS

John Sheridan was tired of rituals. Delenn’s people had more of them he could count. Courtship rituals, rebirth, eating, sleeping, praying, dying… you name it, the Minbari had a ritual for it. He loved ceremony as much as the next guy, but it got old.

He was having dinner with Delenn tonight so he send her a message that he needed to shower before they met in the Zocalo.

“I should come to your quarters,” she said.

“Why?”

“Your mind should be cleansed as well as your body and we have a ritual...”

“Fine,” he answered

His laughing puzzled her.
