Balance of Power by Jennifer Lyon, A. Manley Huff, and Sue Phillips (NC17)

Fandom: BABYLON 5
Pairing: John Sheridan/Jeffrey Sinclair, Sheridan/Delenn/Sinclair
Length: Long Story
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: http://members.aol.com/XFWRITER/stories.htm
Why this must be read: This story starts off with Londo being an ass, which is perfectly believable and has Sheridan and Sinclair enlisting the help of their friends to get back at him. This story is funny, has fun characterization, and is also totally hot. The Centauri apparently have an incredibly strong taboo against same-sex couples, so Sheridan and Sinclair decide to play a practical joke on him by pretending to be a couple. It all kind of snowballs from there...

I re-read this story often, I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Oh, I do like that story! I think my favorite bit is the dressing down she gives to the both of them!

I read this story years ago - and thought I had it saved on my hard drive. Perhaps I did at one point, two crashes and one computer ago. It was wonderful to see an old favorite again. This time, I made sure to save it. Thanks for the rec.

The (absolutely smoking) Sinclair/Sheridan/Delenn story appears to be at Blast Furnace, which is where I stumbled across it:
