That's because Piven+Cusack = OTP.
Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Which, frankly, is an odd reaction for me to have but the slash just isn't working for me with them.
Are you imagining them in period costume? It might help.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
My brain just got doubleteamed by ita and Plei.
I'll need some bleach if I'm going to get any more work done today.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So John Cusack and Jeremy Piven have made ten movies together (which is as many as John and Joan). That's a pretty strong argument for OTP. Affleck and Damon have 19, but a lot of those are appearances, not performances. Still, a strong showing, and off-project association counts strongly. Ben Stiller/Owen Wilson -- 7 movies, 4 appearances and 1 unpicked-up pilot. Also a dream pairing.
What other recent acting pairs are there?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan?
