I often think about how Flagg was a Showgirl for six whole weeks. Like, what transpired there? What made him stay for so long? He said it so casually to Hawkeye knowing what the dude is like so it's either that a) he's That Proud of It, b) he knows half of the shit he says isn't taken seriously at the 4077th so he figured he could just slip it out to self-satisfy and it won't be taken as fact, or c) It is bullshit.
I'm omitting C because: boring.
And combining A and B for the ultimate, and totally-wild theory that Flagg is proud of it but because he's performing G.I. Ruggedness ™ he can only really talk about it under the shield of it not being taken as a serious fact.
I say he did enjoy it because he's just that theatrical and showmanship-like, and that he was even a favorite and that's why they even let him stay on for 6 whole fucking weeks. Like, do you know how quickly showgirls get on the chopping block!? Bro ate. I don't care.

A Priest in Korea is Moving to the AO3
Many years ago, I was friends with Scarlatti on Livejournal, and I found she had written a whole lot of M*A*S*H fanfiction (twenty stories! That was a whole lot back then!) using the name Iolanthe.
Tumblr media
I read all her stories - mostly Hawkeye/Mulcahy: as far as I know, she was the very first person ever to write Hawkeye/Mulcahy slash stories - and I loved them and I started seeing Hawkcahy in the series and one of her stories gave me the idea for the story that eventually grew into Sins and Virtues.
Tumblr media
She read the final part of S&V only in first draft - I started sending her sections as soon as I had finished them - because Susan had cancer, and she died, four months before she would have turned 40. Her website, A Priest In Korea (William Christopher's description of M*A*S*H was "Oh, it's about a priest in Korea") fell into the Wayback machine, and last year, thinking of her stories again and looking for them, I found a complete snapshot of her website, and I thought "I could transfer this over to AO3 and let everyone read them: I bet they have a process for that".
Tumblr media
They do. Julie was my Virgil as I walked through the Open Doors and now a priest in Korea has moved to AO3: A priest in Korea03. The longest story on site isn't even a Hawkeye/Mulcahy story: it's a Francis Mulcahy & Margaret Houlihan story, Polarity, which uses "a creaky old sci-fi plot device" to put Francis into Margaret's body and Margaret into Francis's -
He grew even more uneasy under the appreciative once-over with which Dickinson now favored him, and a blush warmed his face. When he caught sight of Houlihan's sidelong glare, he wondered how she -- or any other woman, for that matter -- would normally handle that kind of attention.
"Well now, Major, I can see you're a take-charge kind of gal," Dickinson drawled. "Meaning no disrespect. But your C.O. would have my head on a platter if I sent you off without an armed escort. Ain't that how you got into this mess in the first place?"
Tumblr media
And the next-longest is also not precisely Hawkeye/Mulcahy, Playing the Game: The night air was pleasant and warm, and I was enjoying the mind-fuzzing effects of several beers, so my pace was unhurried. I'd almost made it to my tent when a man stepped out of the shadows behind the nurses' tent and latched onto my upper arm. "Hold it right there, Mister Vatican," he hissed.
I knew who it was without needing to see his face. No one but Colonel Sam Flagg, alleged CIA operative and all-around loose cannon, had ever addressed me in that fashion. I froze obediently, though my heart was racing and every instinct was telling me to flee for the hills at the earliest opportunity.
"Got a few questions for you," Flagg went on.
(sadly, now and forever unfinished, but rather in the sense of "there should have been more" than "ends on a cliffhanger")
Tumblr media
She wrote what is still (as far as I can tell) the only Henry Blake/Trapper story, one of the few Radar/Hawkeye stories, and also Trapper/Mulcahy.
Tumblr media
But mostly, she wrote about Francis Mulcahy falling in love with Hawkeye, and Hawkeye's gentle reciprocation.
Tumblr media
Between us, we somehow managed to get the tent door open and cross the threshold. At that point, I expected Mulcahy to say goodnight and go pass out in his bunk, which is what I would've done, but instead he had a surprise for me.
As soon as the door closed behind us, he turned in my grasp until we were face to face. Before I had time to fully register what was going on, he'd looped his arms around my neck and was pulling me forward into a kiss.
It was, I think, the softest, sweetest, most tender kiss I've ever received...and one of the most inexplicably erotic.
Tumblr media
What can I say? I loved her stories. She inspired me to write Hawkcahy long before that shipname was invented. I never got to meet her. I'd like you all to read her stories, and thanks to Open Doors/AO3, there they are.
Tumblr media
They told me, Heraclitus, they told me you were dead, They brought me bitter news to hear and bitter tears to shed. I wept, as I remembered, how often you and I Had tired the sun with talking and sent him down the sky. And now that thou art lying, my dear old Carian guest, A handful of grey ashes, long long ago at rest, Still are thy pleasant voices, thy nightingales, awake; For Death, he taketh all away, but them he cannot take.
This is sort of a sad post, but it shouldn't be: Susan was hilarious, and it's been a pleasure and an honour being her archivist.
Tumblr media
Thanks, Susan.

Suddenly, I want to do this for MASH.
What would you change in a MASH AU?
Everything's the same but Radar is a telekinetic instead of a telepath/clairvoyant? Everything's the same except that Henry Blake likes poetry instead of fishing?
Everything's the same except that Hawkeye is houseproud and cleans the Swamp daily?
Everything's the same except Trapper dyes his hair bright green. Everything's the same except that Margaret Houlihan is a surgeon and Frank Burns is Head Nurse. Everything's the same except BJ dyes his moustache red. Everything's the same except that Colonel Potter has a tame lion called Sophie.
Everything's the same except Sidney Freedman has a goatee. Everything's the same except that Max Klinger is a best-selling novelist in Arabic.
Everything's the same except that Charles Emerson Winchester is a socialist.
Everything's the same except Samuel Flagg is English. Everything's the same except that Francis Mulcahy is a rabbi.
i want there to be more fanfic aus where everything is the same but for one minor detail. everything is the same but there’s sentient animals wandering around. everything is the same but everyone is called gerry. everything is the same but two characters are siblings for no reason

Colonel Flagg, boy do I have a lot to say about you. A man who's so committed to the military and hanging onto that G.I. image for dear life to the point of literal self-harm. A man whose idea of masculinity is claiming you've trained yourself not to smile. A man who, for all intents and purposes, has been consumed by a system that doesn't give a fuck about him.
The reason that I liken him to Frank Burns a lot is that he's just as much of a propaganda-driven man as the former. The main difference in them lies in the fact that while Frank fails at conventional masculinity and lacks the charisma to actually have a G.I. temperament, Flagg is masculine and charismatic. He's a hunk. Which, I would go so far as to argue makes him an even worse case of a man desperate for purpose. When the war's over, Frank's going to be back to his (mal)practice and to the misery of whatever awaits him in civilian life. It's the shittiest sorry-excuse-for-a-life but it's still a Non-Military Thing He Has. Fake and miserable as it is.
But Flagg? Flagg's CIA. He's part of the damn system. He's deep into it. He, in achieving what Frank couldn't, dug a deeper hole of self-repression and denial for himself. He's barely a person anymore. He talks like a cartoon character hopped up on steroids and squints his eyes like an action movie star trying too hard.
In The Abduction of Margaret Houlihan he shows up and does fucking nothing. Yet somehow maintains this illusion of self-importance. He's silly as damn fucking hell, calling himself the wind and jumping out the damn window only to break his leg. But he genuinely doesn't realize it. And, again, unlike Frank, his self-assurance stops him from even registering it when other people point it out. Hawkeye makes fun of him and he's prissy about it but he doesn't look or feel bullied. Without, at the very least, registering the repulsion others seem to have for you ( which though sometimes evades Frank, is actually intrinsic to his character. He knows they don't like him. ), then how are you meant to improve? How are you meant to escape that trap you've shoved yourself into?
And can we take a moment to talk about his self-harm? Even if subconscious, there must be some part of him that is desperate to escape the life he's paved for himself. A reflection of the horrors he, too, sees both during the war and as a result of CIA conduct. Hurting himself for the sake of the army, the CIA and America™ might be the only way to feel worthwhile and alive at the same time. Just getting hurt, in his eyes, is losing. Doing a "mission" without sustaining any injuries? Why, that's just not noteworthy enough for him to get any attention from big strong Uncle Sam. But getting hurt on a mission? Now that's impressive. Now that's his purpose. Now that's what he should live for and, if all else fails, die for. What wonderful mixture of narcissism AND self-hatred must you have in you, Samuel, to feel that way.
I know this post is all over the place but the point of it is to say that in spite of being a complete and total beefcake, Colonel Samuel Flagg might be M*A*S*H's most pathetic character. Or at least the one who's deepest in his own shit. Unlike Frank, whose development demands an internal trigger to work, Flagg's might just be in dire need of an external one first, because internally he's been programmed to crumble.

Quo Vadis, Captain Chandler
I'd really like to watch this someday.
It's the only episode with Sidney Freedman that I haven't watched in years, AND it has Samuel Flagg, and as I recall, they have a lovely set-to in Colonel Potter's office.

First 10 Line Challenge
Tagged by the wonderful @wonderofasunrise
Rule: Share the first lines of the last 10 stories you wrote
In her spare time, Margaret absolutely loved to read so it was only natural that she was disappointed when the library, which was once a tent of its own was moved to what could barely be called a closet that could only just fit herself with room to look at the sparse selection of books.
It’s All Wrong, But It’s All Right - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Samuel Flagg (M)
Margaret had been trying to take her R&R for two months, however, every time Colonel Potter had signed off on it they would be inundated with waves upon waves of wounded.
This Time Tomorrow - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan & Sidney Freedman (M)
From the day she turned four to the day she turned eighteen Margaret Houlihan was enrolled in ballet classes.
At The Ballet - M*A*S*H, (M)
Margaret looked at the freshly written letter on her desk, she stared at it for a few moments before crumbling it into a ball and throwing it away.
How Hearts Mend - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Hawkeye Pierce (M)
“Major!” Klinger yelled as he ran out of his office when he saw Margaret make her way out of the mess tent.
I’d Give Up Forever To Hold You - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Helen Whitfield (M)
“Pregnant?” Margaret asked, her breath shaking as tears pricked her eyes.
We Are Forced To Recognize Our Inhumanity - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Donald Penobscott (M)
Susan cursed as she dragged the Christmas tree into the apartment.
Underneath The Tree - ER, Susan Lewis/Kerry Weaver (T)
It was Carol's first Christmas in Seattle and the first Christmas that Doug and the girls were all together.
Silent Night - ER, Carol Hathaway/Doug Ross (T)
It had been days of almost non-stop casualties and everyone in the 4077 was physically and mentally exhausted, when they eventually stopped coming no one was quite ready to sleep.
Your Hand In Mine and Your Head Resting On My Shoulder - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Trapper John McIntyre (M)
Hawkeye walked out of the officers club into the cool air of the night, a smile hung on his lips as he thought of Radar dancing with Lieutenant Nugent.
Prologue: Korea - M*A*S*H, Margaret Houlihan/Hawkeye Pierce (M)
Tagging anyone who wants to play along 🫶
