Heee. I have a feeling they could be adorable given enough time. Like slightly older versions of Brennan and Booth where I don't despise both of them. (Bones and I have issues.)
I'm surprised they didn't occur to you as a pairing; I sort of figured I was just going with the really, incredibly obvious one, and felt a little embarrassed by how easily malleable I was. (Okay, so their relationship also has several characteristics that are complete me!bait, like the whole him-teaching-her-social-skills thing, the bantering, the way he's totally blase about her abrasive manner and she's kind of befuddled about why her bitchiness is having no effect, the way he's already kind of sticking up for her to everyone else... Still, I feel very Obvious McObviouserson.)
(P.S. Totally stealing *evilhetshipper*, because I definitely am one.)
On the other hand, I also wholeheartedly approve of Megan/Kate (WHOOPS, GAVE YOU HER NAME) femslash, because despite Jeri Ryan's criminally small amount of screentime so far, there is definitely something to work with there. Mmmm.
And OH GOD, YOU KNOW HOW I AM KIND OF WEAK WHEN IT COMES TO RPF AND NOW I MIGHT DO THAT EXCEPT THAT WOULD REQUIRE ~RESEARCH~ AND AND AND
RPF as a concept still kind of horrifies me, but I'm always up for enabling you to write fic, so I say go for it! :D
Speaking of your idea, here's some inspiration in the form of Dana Delany and the pilot's victim screwing around on the set.
