I'm trying to think of dirty!wrong pairings I have in fandoms we share. I have a great one for Dragon Age, but it doesn't sound to me like you've played it.
...hmmm.
A part of me likes Harry/Molly from Dresden Files, but it's not something I actively look for. To me it's wrong on a lot of levels because he watched her grow up. It isn't even so much the teacher/student thing because that's really a case-by-case basis for me (some pairings in that relationship I love to ship, others I like to keep to friendship-only), and I know part of it is that this is Michael's daughter. Harry being old enough to be Molly's father doesn't bug me, but for some reason it does when he's such good friends with her dad. Also, she's underage for a lot we've seen so far. So, it comes out as a pairing I don't like admitting out loud that I like to read very often, and she isn't my favorite match for Harry either. But I have read a few wonderful fics that were just too fantastic not to love.
I always feel weird shipping characters who, in canon, hate each other. I'm not the sort of person who goes "zomg rivals = lovers!!!111!!!one!", but on occasion I do. I like the idea of a pairing like this in Dragon Age, and they aren't my favorite pairing but I'm sad that I can't find anything for them. It's hard because they really, really hate each other. (Morrigan/Alistair, for anyone curious.)
Oh! I also love the idea of Darken Rahl/Richard, and oh man, was my mind confused with itself on that one. This one bugs me because it would involve non-con of some sort to work, and I'm not usually into that. Also, because Richard loves Kaelen so much. I have no idea how it could work and keep them In Character, but my mind keeps on thinking it sounds hot. But all of the Plot Reasons keep coming up and that's why I think it's wrong on a number of levels.
Yeah, I haven't played Dragon Age. I'm actually not a gamer.
TBH, I'm NOT a big fan of Molly/Harry, simple because they seem to have such a huge power differential. While I do ship some student/teacher pairings, there is usually at least one element that balances out the teachers power... and Molly really doesn't have that. In power, life experience, and emotional maturity, Harry is Molly's superior.

Plus, they're brothers. Frankly, there are a lot of reasons why that won't work... but I am fair enough to admit that those two boys are SMOKING and sometimes, that's reason enough for a pairing.
