I'm not even a shipper of any M.A.S.H. pairing, just generally enjoyed the show. But this fic... amazing! You are such a talented writer! I have no appropriate words to do justice to this amazing work of yours.
And I must say that Charles and Hawkeye were my favorites, in that order, of the show. I was so happy when Frank left, he annoyed me to no end. Charles is so clever and refined, but still snarky and vengenful and somewhat as mischevious as Hawk and B.J. The whole show seemed to take a new turn after his arrival. The jokes were more inventive, original, the dialog seemed deeper, more real somehow. And the characters seemed to grow more complete. Like the show finally had a track that it was set to follow, not just timidly testing the waters. it stood out from among the many other comedy shows as interesting as well as funny, which I consider a rarity. The relationships between the characters solidified, and there wasn't any more black/white, there were many, many beautiful shades of grey. The dream episode -if you recall, there was an ep where they all had dreams while waiting out the night (?)- is proof of that, and such a wonderful peep hole into the personalities involved.
Ugh, God, I'm rambling! So sorry, I lost it there for a moment. I obviously enjoyed the show very much, and I'm so very glad that I checked through your fics and found this one.:)
