I really need to yell for a hot minute about a specific scene from the Babylon 5 episode Messages From Earth because it is a masterclass in storytelling via themes and subtext.
Sheridan is confiding in Delenn how when he was younger he couldn't sleep before his big exam, because he needed the sound of rain. Delenn's first question is, "and did it begin to rain?"
This is exactly what the Minbari religious caste ethos is based around. A few episodes earlier in Confessions and Lamentations Delenn is comforting a Markab child with one of her own childhood stories. She explains after being separated from her parents in the city that her response was to sit in an old temple and wait, because she believed they will find her. And they do. Because for the Minbari, as they say, faith manages. Their love and trust for one another and the goodness in the universe is what drives them.
But as Sheridan explains, for him it didn't rain. There was no divine intervention. Instead, his father goes out to the garden and sprays water onto the roof to simulate rain. His love and dedication to change fate itself for his son is the human ethos. Overcoming the odds for love, to take control of your own destiny.
In this one scene reflecting on a childhood memory, and with Sheridan once again in a stressful situation that brought it out of him, we see both his vulnerability and a reflection of the Minbari vs human ethos towards meaning and value. We learn so much about who they are as people and their different cultures, through stories and actions.
Sheridan confides, and Delenn makes the computer simulate rain noises. He reaches out for help from a loved one, and she shows him a kindness in his own language.
And none of this is said explicitly.

The woman who sold me this told me that I would definitely turn heads? Yeah well, if they turned much further, you'd be sued for whiplash.

If we had spoken out, if we had gone public with what we knew, most of the other worlds would never have believed us. It would have changed nothing. Your world would still have fallen.

I've been meaning to do a grey council delenn portrait since last year's challenge, I love the vibe a lot. I was thinking maybe in addition to the valen triluminary they also have other... triangle-based decision-making devices in the council? my personal lore is this one contains a piece of a destroyed ship, used to symbolize matters of war.
