All you fanfiction fans out there roll up roll up!
What pairings (if any) do you like between character/involving characters?
I'll write a few down to get the ball rolling:
Hawkeye/Margaret
Charles/Margaret
BJ/Margaret (it has been done)
Potter/Margaret (scary but done)
BJ/Hawkeye
Trapper/Hawkeye
Hawkeye/Kellye
Hawkeye/Radar
Frank/Margaret
and the one i invented Mr Sock(out of major topper)/Margaret -----it was unrequited love on the socks side

I'm sure that your definition of pairing in this thread is perhaps different than mine, but I think it would be neat to somehow get Trapper and BJ together. Just to see how they interact, strictly on a friend basis.

Just to see how they interact, strictly on a friend basis. I like BJ/Hawk on banter basis, its good for flow. I like the meet ups of characters that haven't met like BJ and Trapper. As for romance, i range all of the bases as long as their well written. Heck i even wrote one myself about Mr Sock (from Major Topper) and Margaret as a joke and i had good reviews for it! "Pairings" in this thread can range from romance to friendship, just to clarify...i didn't make that clear in the start. |

[glow=green,2,300]i think a Frank/ Charles interaction would be VERY interesting, what with Frank being a bumbler in the OR and Charles being superior to just about every other doctor the 4077 has ever seen[/glow]

just by looking at the fanfiction here, i find the H/M line to be overdone. why does it have to be Hawk and Margaret? hasnt anyone seen how she acts around charles? or the scene when she revealed her feelings for Trapper?

I agree. But then again I really like conflict in pairings and when the H/M thing is done you don't usually get to see the angry side of Margaret at all and I love her attitude! Both Frank and Donald get her angry all the time, but when it's Hawkeye it seems that everything is always perfect. Or maybe i'm just not reading the right fan fiction. |

That's what I'm seeing with the H/M Fiction. they are reunited and live happily. all margaret really wants after so many years moving from station to station in the army is security, so she could just as easily hooked up with any doctor from the 4077. i would like to seee her with Trapper, but then i guess he was married. but still... |

H/M is easier to write situation-wise. As you said Trapper was married which leads to stickiness.
Theres wars waging over C/M vs H/M with decent arguements for each.
I like most pairings, i will take a BRILLIANTLY written Potter/Margaret over a very poor H/M any day, as long as it has everything there to make the plot acceptable.

That's what I'm seeing with the H/M Fiction. they are reunited and live happily. That's something I've noticed with most romantic MASH fanfic, irrespective of pairing although H/M is the worst culprit. There seems to be a sub-genre which involves marriage, babies and white-picket fences in Crabapple Cove. On TV, Hawkeye and Margaret are a complex relationship with petty annoyances, long-standing banter and frequent infuriation with the other. And also mountains of affection, attraction and - in the end - trust. So seeing that reduced to "they argue a bit, they marry, they have babies and a white picket fence" seems to over-simplify the whole thing. If you're looking for non-sappy H/M, try Samantha Caldwell ( www.geocities.com/sams_mash/welcome.html) or Kalina (her 'Custom Fit' ( www.geocities.com/kalinalea/customfit.htm) is one of my favourites). |

I'm trying to write a Trapper/Margaret fanfiction. I have it saved onto another computer, and that one doesn't have internet (because I'm switching service providers), so when I get internet on the other computer, I'll try to get it up someway or another.

I personally do not like the Hawkeye/Margaret fanfics, although some are interesting, I just dont see them ending up together. Romance wise- I prefer to think of Charles/Margaret. I don't like the idea of BJ or Trapper leaving their wives. What about one with Margaret and Frank reuniting? Maybe I'll do that one day. Just a thought... cheers applemartini  |
