So, yesterday I posted a list of fiction comms centered around various characters and pairings. I discovered that there are seven comms where John/Teyla is the ship or one of a limited number of ships accepted-- the most for any SGA pairing. Which got me to thinking, who has the greatest number of different pairings where someone decided to make a comm dedicated to it or limited to it and a few others. So, taking my data from yesterday, I counted. Multiple comms for one pairing don't count-- just different pairings. It's interesting to note that while he's a member of three of the most popular pairings in SGA fandom, John Sheppard came in 4th. Instead, it would appear that Carson Beckett and Rodney McKay, at 11 pairings apiece, are the top dogs for "Yeah, I could see him with X..." Elizabeth Weir, at 10 pairings, came in a close 3rd.
The data:
Carson Beckett: 11
Rodney McKay: 11
Elizabeth Weir: 10
John Sheppard: 8
Ronon Dex: 6
Teyla Emmagan: 6
Radek Zelenka: 6
Major Lorne: 5
Laura Cadman: 2
Steven Caldwell: 1
Aiden Ford: 1
Peter Grodin: 1
Kate Heightmeyer: 1
Dr. Kavanagh: 1
Acastus Kolya: 1
Sergeant Markham: 1
Lindsay Novak: 1
Doctor Parrish: 1
Sergeant Stackhouse: 1
So there you have it.
Discuss.
