The Goren/Eames thread got me thinking:
Excluding professional partners (no Goren/Eames, no Benson/Stabler), who in the LAW AND ORDER universe would you pair up in a relationship?
I've read some very good fanfic suggesting a Benson/Goren relationship, for example.

For me, this kind of topic will always be "Oh, wouldn't it be cool if..." while still doubting "Would ti really work that well in the overall show?" And lord knows I'm not up to writing fan-fic, I'm much better at regurgitating than creating. But since the topic started...
I don't want to actually see much on screen, but I think that Alex Eames and Ed Green would be an interesting pair. Both respectable cops, both have their own sense of style, separate precincts so there's no workplace awkwardness. Besides, it's Jesse L. Martin. Enough said.
Much as I hate to admit that Eames and Logan would keep each other honest, for the love of all that is good and holy don't let it happen. Logan is too old and smarmy for her. I really would ride the porcelain train if CI showed that. Keep it as workplace snark-buddies, maybe a drink at the end of the week to roll their eyes over their partners.
As to SVU, we'd have to get rid of Dr. Warner's husband but Fin Tutuola and ME Warner...hmm... My mother and I independantly came to this conclusion, I didn't realize she thought the same thing til we watched a rerun of a scene together and she suddenly announced "Those two need to get together". CATBIRD: "I think so too, Mom, except she's mentioned a husband once or twice." MOM: "Well, dump hubby and get with him!"
They already have a solid respect for each other as professionals, Warner has been unobtrusively sympathetic when Fin had a rough time with stuff ("Haunted, Denial, Careless"), and it's not like they're in the same office to cause unprofessional trouble. Both have a sense of humor, there is personality present. Again, don't wanna see the necking sessions on screen, but this has potential for some "Avengers" type ambiguity--or at least Jack & Claire "are they or aren't they?". But at the same time, I don't want Mr. Warner to turn out to be a jerk and make her go through a rough painful divorce just to pave the way for audience squeals...oh, farkle. I'm too nice, aren't I?

"For me, this kind of topic will always be "Oh, wouldn't it be cool if..." " Yeah. I've always thought it would be cool if I happened to be in an episode of The Twilight Zone and gOren stepped out of my TV and into my bed!! Now that would be really cool! ;D Sorry, I digress.

I can envisage Benson and Goren for a brief fling, but I'm sure whether they would potentially end up killing each other in a long-term relationship. Way too much emotional baggage between those two.
I don't know enough about any of the other characters in the mothership, or RVU to be able to speculate.

I haven’t seen much of SVU or the Mothership, but from what I’ve seen I can’t imagine any crossover relationships. In any case, I’m pretty sure the powers that be would never do that kind of thing – too much potential for soap. The Finn/ME connection might not have that problem, though – except for the husband. Oh well... other than that it sounded like an interesting possibility...
Along those same lines, there was a tall, competent-seeming female detective on one of the Criminal Intent episodes last season who struck me as an interesting potential date for Goren.
