Despite the fact that I have too much to do and this is the last thing I should be starting, I can't seem to help myself. (grin) I have been unable to locate any archive dedicated to the sparking chemistry between Skinner and Doggett, and so I've been forced to do it myself.

There's only one criteria for inclusion here: A Skinner/Doggett Chemical Reaction. Whether it's mild UST or hot smut, if Skinner and Doggett find themselves feeling what many of us out here see between them, then it belongs on this page.**

Spoiler and content notes: Assume that all stories here could include episode spoilers through the end of Season Eight. Read at your own risk. Please heed all content warnings and ratings, and remember that everything you see here will include slash content, so if that's not your thing, don't come cryin' to me.

Story submissions and suggestions are always welcome.

** This archive is for Skinner/Doggett pairings only — no /other dalliances, threesomes, and so on. UST between Skinner or Doggett and other characters is acceptable, as is mention of a relationship in the past (so it's okay if Doggett and Reyes used to be lovers, for example). Also, relationships between other characters, such as Mulder and Scully, are just fine.

SPECIAL NOTICE: Before I get to the stories, allow me to give a quick plug to the thank you efforts for Mitch Pileggi and Robert Patrick. These groups are raising funds for ads in a special edition of The Hollywood Reporter, thanking the actors for their work on "The X-Files." Interested? Stop by their web sites to lend a hand!
