My main rarepairing is Carson/Teyla and I also like Laura/Lorne.

I've come across several Laura/Evan fics, but like it or not - if it's considered for the SG Rare Pairings ficathon it's still rare.Heightmeyer's Lemming -- still the coolest Lemming of the forum

Oh, I do like it, because I'm generally more of a rare pairings (and minor character) person. I was just wondering if it was simply my perception or if they were really starting to get a larger fanbase.I'm a 60%er.

First off, thanks for this thread! I often get caught up in the Major character ships, and then feel guilty about leaving the little ones in the poverbial dust. I must say I am a huge Carson/Teyla shipper, I guess that counts as minor.
And after seeing this thread I thought I might as well type about the one ship that has been on my mind constantly since yesterday. It is like one of those werid niggling thoughts that refuses to go away
What about Kavanaugh/Simpson?
Yes, yes I know...Kavanaugh, everyones favourite little a**hole. But once you get over any mutal dislike for the character...(Yes he is annoying, and a weiner, but really if you think about it, he makes everything interesting! Not to mention he does end up saving their butts more often then not) And I know the two character only appear a handfull of times, Kavanaugh more then Simpson, but after rewatching "38 minutes" I thought their could be some potential chemistry in there.
Actually, that gives me a fic idea.Lets just say Radek Zelenka can be my Mad Scientist any day!

Thanks to Humanityspotential for the awesome Zelenka Siggie!

I think it becomes easier to be a fan of a rare pairing if you sort of one-true-character ship or slash like I do with Sam and Daniel. I'm willing to give nearly any pairing involving one of these two a go. Sometimes, it's off one or two scenes out of the entire show and films. Sometimes, it's with a guest character that has limited screen time. And sometimes, with characters that have barely met, you read something where the fanfic writer has mastered both characters individually so well that the ensuing relationship is actually rather plausible.
I read a few Daniel/John, Daniel/Teyla and Daniel/Ronan not too long ago that seemed completely plausable, even though they haven't really had scenes together.
I've been reading Daniel/Rodney for years, so it was just great fun when they actually had some good meaty scenes together this year to work with.
For Sam, Femmeslash is relatively rare still I'd say, comparatively. And there's not enough Daniel/Sam out there at all. In fact, I think it's harder to find Sam het pairings because of the total domination by Sam/Jack. And if it's not Sam/Jack, it's Sam/Rodney or Sam/Cam. Finding Sam/Teal'c is difficult. Finding Sam/Teal'c that isn't a side pairing to Jack/Daniel is darn near impossible.
I'm glad they have the Isis awards for rarer pairings though. I wish I could write some of these pairings to contribute!sigpic Heliosphere- multi-shipper, multi-thunker

I ship/slash Daniel with everybody. Literally, everybody. I have never met a Daniel/somebody fic I wouldn't read, from the regulars like Daniel/Jack and Daniel/Vala to the freaky ones, like Daniel/Maybourne and Daniel/Cassie, to the crossovers, like Daniel/Ronon or Daniel/Zelenka. Yes, I have found all those. :O
I am a little bit weird, yes?sigpic
