** Aversion: the Sheppard/Weir pairing is called "Sparky". The person who started the Sheppard/Weir LJ community hated portmanteau ship names and said something like "We're not calling this pairing Shweir! Anything but that! We can even call it 'Sparky' if you like!" and it stuck. This also appears to be an allusion to the character Sheppard's obsession with having to name new things/concepts himself rather than allowing anyone else to coin the terms.
