Summary
INCOMPLETE. This is NOT my work, original author metis. Posting here for preservation and archival purposes only.
Summary: Post Earth Alliance War. Assumes Ivanova and Talia were intimate pre-Divided Loyalties.
After a botched assassination attempt, Ivanova is obliged to accept a government appointed Psi-Corps bodyguard. A bodyguard who turns out to be none other than the Control personality wearing the body of Ms. Talia Winters. Neither of them are happy about this. Shenanigans ensue. Part political thriller, part psychological mind games (telepathic or otherwise), and all angst.

Summary
Each entry is going to be a tagalong of some sort to the episode of the same title. Ideally, there will be one for each episode, but I doubt I will be able to pull this of with just a single rerun of the show. We'll just have to see how things go.
As I've started to lag behind my viewing schedule, I had to start skipping episodes. That doesn't mean I’ve given up on (all of) them, but rather that updates will be erratic and all over the place. I will reorder this series whenever necessary to keep the entries in the order of the episodes on the DVDs. This means you should not rely on the "Next Work" / "Previous Work" links at the bottom as long as the series is marked as incomplete.
Not betaed.
See note in the beginning of the first entry for a more detailed description.

Summary
A subset of my Revisitations series containing all of the Susan/Talia stories therein.
As such, it's a collection of one shots following them through canon. It does stay canon compliant so don't expect Talia to make an appearance after Divided Loyalties. She still features very heavily in the one for Exogenesis, but after that the references get a bit vague. Keep that in mind when reading them, so as not to get disappointed by a lack of ship focus. (They're all tagged accordingly.)
I've marked the series as finished. I'm not completely ruling out that another story might creep up on me, but I do think it's rather unlikely.

“If the Talia you knew is dead,” whispers Control, into the disheveled collar of her uniform’s undershirt, “why did you come back?”
“I don’t know."

Summary
The Psi Corps is all about control. It was founded as a way for normals to control telepaths a hundred years ago, now grown into a cult of telepaths controlling one another, and its leadership holds ambitions of controlling all of Earthgov and even the future of humanity itself.
To this end, the Corps has planted sleeper agents deep within the minds of unsuspecting officers in nearly every agency and military outpost. Each reports in while their oblivious host is asleep, waiting for full activation upon a single telepathic command. The one within commercial telepath Talia Winters aboard Babylon 5 is no different, and as one of the more useful spies, she has been given the fitting codename Control.
But on the same day the rogue Lyta Alexander arrives with a stolen activation key, another fugitive from the Corps has come as well.
