What if...? Joel and Maggie...

I'm not a writer. But some scenes make me think about... (click to enlarge)
Maggie O’Connell (Janine Turner) and Joel Fleischman (Rob Morrow) (Northern Exposure)

(Edited to add: for those who didn't watch the show, the dialogues are transcripts from each scene, to inspire you... )

2x01 Goodbye To All That




Joel: Sex should be wild, shouldn't it?
Maggie: Wild?
Joel: Unfettered and free. I mean, we're animals, aren't we? I mean, finally, basically, we're all wolves in sheep's fur. Well, I always wanted more.
Maggie: More?
Joel: Yeah. I mean, not frequency. I am not talking about frequency. Although that would've been great too. But, I want more intensity. I wanted to be out there. Outside myself. Outside my skin. I wanted sex to be like robbing life out of the jaws of death.
Maggie: Wow.
Joel: Are you okay?
Maggie: Why?
Joel: Well, it's 20 below out. You're breaking a sweat.

What if she wanted to see all that he talked about?

3x03 Oy, Wilderness




Maggie: Fleischman, what do you think you’re doing?
Joel: Just a little exploratory surgery. (…) It’s only an engine, O’Connell. Actually, it’s not unlike the human heart. (…) The thing is, the valve seemed stuck. It had this gunk on it like a pulmonary stenosis.(…) The heart has a valve. It gets stuck, and the blood doesn’t move forward. It gets backed up, and then you have a major problem, hence, our situation here. (…) At least you can try and start it up.
Maggie: You’ve gotta be kidding.
Joel: The thing was stuck. Now it’s not stuck. Maybe it works.

What if she wanted to thank him for being so smart and fixed her beloved plane?

Just simple romantic scenes! No drama, no complications. Good for that 100-limit kind of fic? Any volunteer to write it? Pretty please? :)
