Johnathen Archer/Hoshi Sato

OMG YOU GUYS YOU HAVE NO I HARD I SHIPPED THIS BACK IN THE DAY, WHEN I WAS JUST A WEE LITTLE TARI WHO DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHIPPING WAS.

For real.  This was my ship.  I hopped on board pretty much the first episode.

While gathering people for his crew to man the brand-new Enterpriseship, Archer pays a visit to an implied old friend of his, teaching alien languages to kids and adults in Brazil.  Said friend is Hoshi Sato.  Wee!Tari was pretty much immediately drawn in by their implied longtime friendship.  And Archer's protectiveness over her, and gentle encouragement of her abilities.

Ugh, I wanted them to kissso bad.

The show had some pretty good moments for them early on, then that kind of fizzled out as Archer and Trip started taking up way more screentime than the other characters and they tried to push a weird romance between Archer and T'pol, resident female Vulcan hottie.  (Though they kind of tried to push T'pol and pretty much every dude on the Enterprise.  Ultimately she wound up with Trip, and they were very sweet together.)  Then towards the end of the third season and all through the fourth season we got some more really goo moments between them.

Like the episode where Trip and Hoshi get infected by a silicon-based virus and nothing they do works to fight it and Hoshi flatlines and Archer doesn't hesitate to strip off his protective enviro-suit to do CPR on her, even though he'll be infected too.

Oh and the Mirrorverse.  The Mirrorverse episodes made me very happy.

For obvious reasons.
