Hawkeye and Trapper: two mirrors reflecting into infinity until you can't see either anymore.

Hawkeye and Henry: the overworked under paid college dean and depressed class clown start drinking at the same bar.

Hawkeye and Margaret: they hate each other's masks so much that all they can do is rip them off and be themselves.

Hawkeye and Radar: what if your inner child saw all the bullshit you got up to and still loved you anyway?

Hawkeye and Klinger: a pair of caged birds trying to pick the lock.

Hawkeye and Charles: Symphony No. 7 in A major, Op. 92 / Entrance of the Gladiators Mashup. Beautiful music was made anyway.

Hawkeye and Potter: the soldier that became a doctor and the doctor that became a soldier. The man you never were and the man you'll never be in thirty years meeting somewhere in the middle and shaking hands.

Hawkeye and Frank: American, American't, American-can can you do the can-can?

Hawkeye and Father Mulcahy: God's smile looks something like a punchline.

Hawkeye and BJ: two mirrors facing opposite directions with their backs glued together.

“What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the open country, and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it?"

isn't it kind of crazy that mulcahy is enlisted. he isn't even drafted. do you think he enlisted because he's such a man of action that he saw where he was going to be the most needed and went, both entering the most hypermasculine space possible after being abused growing up about how he isn't man enough & risking life and limb, while hanging onto his softness and decency. a move that he keeps echoing throughout the show when he does stuff like stare down the soldier with the gun or deal with the black market to get supplies & echoing his people's devotion to continuing to secretly preach in the hills on rocks under threat of death by english priest-hunters. isn't it kind of crazy how he gets there and is basically the acting chief mourner as the sole person around for miles who is responsible for giving every dying soldier's last rites and spiritually processing the dead. isn't it kind of crazy to enlist as a psychopomp. isn't it kind of crazy how he does that and is so insistent with continuing to be helpful and assists in OR so much that the surgeons trust him to take over in triage or stand in for a nurse when there aren't enough hands to go around. isnt it kind of crazy that he does all that and still doesn't think he's useful
