Reactions and Reviews

Jintian gives us a Scully who's lost to everything but self-punishment and a Doggett who's just plain lost, sex and rage wrapped up in character revelation. When Jintian first posted this, I told her I wasn't sure I liked it -- but I was damn sure affected by it. I still feel the same way.[1]

I usually don't read DSR (just not my thing) but this was beautiful and painful. This is how I can see a DSR being possible in canon. Scully becoming bitter and almost unfeeling, Doggett just trying to help, hurting himself while he does it.[2]

(NC-17, XF, Scully/Doggett) Very uncompromising, beautifully written. As a very perceptive person on the mailing list where this was first posted said: "How can something be so hot and so cold at the same time?" *Highly* recommended.[3]
