Hell, even some anime, such as Negima, have potential for crack pairings. How about Negi/Chachamaru? But nooo, its mostly Konoka, Asuna and Nodoka, with some Evangeline on the side.
Oh don't even get me started on Negima, that is one of the biggest let downs I've ever seen the fanfiction community make, I mean here you have this awesome anime that has ONE romantically-viable male character and thirty some-odd girls, all with different personalities and most with little to no character development, giving you a clean slate to work with. Animes like Negima are gold mines for people like Hawk, there are just so many options and girls to pick from that I think the only thing holding it back is that One) the leading male is a 10 yr old and Two) It's not very well know yet (compared to Eva or Love Hina). The age thing can easily be worked around in a variety of ways so really it just needs to gain a bit more popularity and people need to get off their butts (oh wait...scratch that, reverse it) and actually put some effort into putting some of the more obscure characters in a pairing, y'know what I would do to see a pairing like oh, Negi/Zazie Rainyday. If someone would do one, just one, pairing like that I think it would spur people to try them at least a little bit more. So please people, if anyone has any ideas for a pairing like that than don't hold back! Who cares what the general populace thinks, we, the silent minority, will be forever thankful to you for it.
Well, for SO3 a Fayt/Aquaria pairing isn't THAT impossible. I have a couple ideas on how it could work. Basically, here's the gist of it:
Aquaria is single (either she never married or she's a widow), and it doesn't appear she has any offspring. She's definitely older than any other woman in the game, except perhaps a couple of the inventors, but still looks to be at an age where having children wouldn't be impossible.
Now, the logical choice to ensure the Queendom's wellbeing would be to have her marry and have an offspring, but of course, whoever marries her had BETTER be a strong, dependable person who'll protect her should things go wrong.
Now, while she doesn't show much emotion at all towards anyone, Fayt DID protect her from the Dragoon Brigade rebels' attack on the way to Surferio and the Mosel ruins. What if... Fayt had gotten injured to shield her? Such an act should at least elicit some sort of response even from a calm, controlled person like Aquaria.
From there, it's all a matter of developing feelings on her behalf, as well as Fayt's (Aquaria may be a queen, but even at her age, she's quite beautiful). Hell, seeing how Fayt proves to be dependable, I wouldn't be surprised if Lasselle himself (The queen's aide) suggested him as a viable husband. Lasselle is concerned first and foremost about the wellbeing of the Queen, and I'm convinced he'd approve of such an union.
This is just a rough idea. I'm not too good at romance, but if no one else gives it a spin, I might try.
Regarding Negima, this isn't the right section to discuss it, but given how Chachamaru has started to develop human feelings of affection towards Negi in the manga, I don't see how a Negi/Chachamaru pairing wouldn't work. Hell, it'd probably be the one most likely to work - being an android, Chachamaru wouldn't be overly concerned by the lack of physical affection in a relationship with the still-young Negi, and who knows... such a fic might include their search of a way for her to become 'human'.
