Oh, hand me another set of unicorns -- I still owe this meme to Magnavox, so I might as well do an omnibus!

ETA: Hee, I answered before I looked to see which icons you had picked. Once I had your caps in hand, I went over to the Memory Alpha wiki and looked for good Q quotes -- from there, it was just a case of seeing which ones worked nicely with the requested images.

As for a pairing: how about MacGyver/Sam Carter.

Answering the memes in separate comments, for tidiness. Here are your five icons:

Hmm, some interesting choices there! One overlap, so I'll end up posting about nine icons total. *now wondering why you picked those*

[justice_turtle]

Pretty much at random? I knew if I went for anything resembling "favorites" I'd have way more than five ;-) so I chose ones I hadn't noticed much before - except "heterodyning ur frequency", which was just too cute to skip. (And, looking at them now, I think I got a nice assortment of ages and expressions in.)

MacGyver/Sam Carter:

1. What they most commonly do during sex snugglytiems

Mac seems to prefer an either/or split between sex partners and long-term relationships, in canon, so I've landed Sam on the relationship side because she has too much personality for a one-off fling. ;P

(Besides, they would make an adorably cute snuggle-pair. I see it as being kind of like this Four/Romana II story; they'd go on ostensibly romantic dates that somehow involve a lot of running and/or explosions, and have to rescue each other from kidnappers every so often, and cuddle and debate science and do a lot of maths. Yes, I have a huge thing for intellectual-debate-as-intimacy. *g*)

2. Who has prettier hair

Sam. Just barely. Mac's S5 hair is pretty nice in a floppy wind-blown way, but NOTHING is cuter than early!Sam's slightly curly credits-hair.

3. What they argue about most often

Proper safety parameters and protocols. Mac is so sloppy sometimes. ;-)

4. Who'd cope best if the other one diedSam, I think. Mac tends to angst about things; look at

Hee! Love #3 especially.

Mac didn't have any long-term relationships in canon, except for friendships. He could quite obviously maintain any number of friendships, happily, for decades, especially if no pressure to ZOMG Make This Formal was applied. (Rather like RDA -- what a coincidence!) I like to think that, given how marvelous Sam is, she could quite happily maintain a fine snuggly friendship with him (with 'snuggle' taken to mean as much as one likes) without getting too messed up. Especially since she wouldn't make any attempt to domesticate him.

And, speaking from experience, intellectual connection can be very intimate.

'Mac didn't have any long-term relationships in canon, except for friendships.'

Yes, that's approximately what I meant; I just didn't phrase it very clearly.

'given how marvelous Sam is, she could quite happily maintain a fine snuggly friendship with him'

I agree. :-)
