So I guess that with Beowulf signing on it might send you into a coma?


Oh, the GA itself caused the coma. Beowulf killed me. I'm secretly a ghost. (Who apparently retains the capability to drool...)

I could be blown into subatomic particles and erased from the collective memory of the universe before I lost the ability to matchmake.

No wonder why you like paranormal romance. It all makes sense now. :mrgreen:

Another favorite is Chien-lu Anderman; Herzog von Rabenstrange, and Honor's relationship. I think it was always very humerous to watch the two of them interact. I'd love to see a meeting between Chien-lu and Sarnow.

Speaking of Sarnow: Honor and Sarnow! They had such a wonderful relationship before RFC packed him off to Silesia, and while I'm well aware that Silesia desperately needs Mark Sarnow, so do we!! Wouldn't it be lovely to pair him up with his old flag captain and watch the missiles fly??

Hmm, let's dip a toe in here...

On the "conventional" side:
The Alexander brothers - they so love to pick on one another... makes me sorry I am an only child :mrgreen:

Hamish and Tom Caparelli and how that one developed over the years - and they still have so much boyish bravado despite being almost a hundred years old :roll:

Kevin and Ginny Usher - that one is... well ... let's say the Mexicans are probably capable to do it some justice, in 150 episodes or more :D
Although there might be some unintentional consequences considering the Kleenex supply /possibly blood pressure too/ of certain people...
*determinedly,if not entirely succesfully tries not to look at roseandheather*


A slightly ... well, actually a very unconventional one, although I am surprised how our :geek:s and :ugeek:s missed it :
Shannon and computers /well any machinery, especially of the military type/ - that is a magical, mystical union of unknowable origins, unimaginable power and consequences I am afraid even to dream about. 8-). Not to mention that a simple, harmless "Oops" can bring me to uncontrollable shudders just like that.

One of my favourite relationships is the friendship between Emily,Samantha and Nimitz. Emily calls Samantha and Nimitz her "furry henchmen" and the three of them combine to stop Honor and Hamish discussing work too much at home.

The relationship of treecats and children.
I still think RFC has something in store for the new generation of treecats living in close proximity to humans.

The hint, IMHO, was when Nimitz (I think it was Nimitz) sensed Raoul's mind glow, and passed it on to Honor after tasting.

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

The day I forget how much I love Helen Zilwicki's relationship with Bernardus van Dort is the day I should have my Honorverse books taken away and be sent to the Corner of Shame.
