shag chart rationale

the chart

• Angel-Candy: They are in a serious relationship by the time of X-Factor. We can take this as read.
• Iceman-Zelda, Vera-Beast: They were dating for a considerable period of the 1960s.
  
• Vera-Mimic: They appear to be lovers by the time of Amazing Adventures #16
  
• Scott-Jean: They initially just had crushes on each other, but started dating at some point during the 1960s, possibly around the time Jean's telepathy emerged, if we go by the version in flashback in Uncanny #138. All-New X-Men #1 has them be dating by the time of Uncanny #8 which on balance is probably a good thing because I don't think I could stand to read any more Scott angst. By the way, I'm not going to treat Jean and Phoenix separately here, because lolwut.
  
• Professor X-Moira MacTaggert: Former fiancees.
  
• Moira MacTaggert-Joe MacTaggert: They have a son.
  
• Professor X-Lilandra: Obv.
  
• Nightcrawler-Amanda: Incest ftw!
  
• Scott-Lee: What else is there to do when you're shipwrecked? #149
  
• Moira MacTaggert-Banshee: They shacked up on Muir Island together.
  
• Professor X-Gaby Haller: They have a son. If you need more information let me tell you about the birds and the bees.
  
• Wolverine-Mariko: Logan is simply not that much of a gentleman.
  
• Scott-Maddy: They married in Uncanny #174 and Baby X was born in Uncanny #200.
  
• Storm-Forge: This is I believe implied in Uncanny #186 (Lifedeath)
  
• Magneto-Lee: All it took was the love of a good woman!
  
• Cannonball-Lila: In New Mutants Annual #1, they are kissing and then the scene ends suspciously.
  
• Havok-Polaris: Even if they had been saving it, they shag between panels in Uncanny #218.
  
• Wolverine-Yukio (to add): They do it on a roof in Kitty Pryde and Wolverine. During daytime. The filthy perverts.
  
• Hepzibah-Corsair: At some point, surely.
  
• Rusty-Skids: Between the end of X-Factor #16 and #17
  
• Mystique-Destiny: This is clear by Uncanny X-Men #255
  
• Colossus-Shadowcat: In Whedon's Astonishing if not before.
  
• Wolverine-Tyger Tiger: Implied by the ending of "Save The Tiger", part 10
  
• Alex-Maddy (to add): Per Uncanny #239
  
• Beast-Trish: Implied by New X-Men
  
• Scott-Emma: they have a psychic affair during Morrison's run on New X-Men, and then start seeing each other for real. Wolverine catches them in bed in Astonishing #1.
  
• Emma-Namor: psychic affair during Avengers vs X-Men (as revealed in an issue of Uncanny)
  
• Magneto-Sue Dane: the current version, as shown in 2012 issues of X-Factor, has Sue be Lorna's mother and Magneto be her dad. This is supposedly the real version.
  
• Magneto-Rogue: As per the Carey/Gage run on X-Men: Legacy
  
• Rogue-Gambit: Oh come on they must have done at some point.
  
• Gambit-Mystique: From Bizarre Love Triangle. Not certain, but the Cajun acted funny after.
  
• Mystique-Wolverine: ?
  
• Wolverine-Domino: X-Force: Sex & Violence mini-series is basically the Domino Violently Shags Wolverine show. (literally, that is the plot)
  
• Colossus-Domino: Domino confirmed to be banging the shit out of Colossus in Cable and X-Force #4
  
• Mystique-Iceman: During Carey's run on X-Men, I believe.
  
• Iceman-Shadowcat: Aaron's run on Wolverine and the X-Men Actually, I'm striking this. They have a relatively chaste date in Wolverine and the X-Men #24. At some point they get it together before they break out, but there was nothing special there.
  
• Shadowcat-Pete Wisdom: Apparently in Warren Ellis's Excalibur
  
• Iceman-Polaris: They were seeing each other around the time of Decimation.
  
• Beast-Abigail Brand: clearly
  
• Psylocke-Angel: We see them in bed at the start of Uncanny X-Force
  
• Psylock-Fantomex: Psylocke bangs Fantomex in Uncanny X-Force #25 (at least, we think it's Psylocke for real because) in #26 Mystique dressed as Psylocke bangs Fantomex again



• Psylocke-Thunderbird 3: ?
  
• Mystique-Sabretooth: And Mystique is seen getting it on with Victor Creed in Uncanny X-Force #31

• Hepzibah-Warpath: yeah, I guess
  
• Multiple Man-Layla Miller: after she came back from the future as an adult
  
• Multiple Man-M: possibly just a dupe
  
• Multiple Man-Siryn: resulted in "pregnancy"
  
• M-Synch: ?
  
• Cannonball-Boom Boom: ?
  
• Cannonball-Moonstar: in Fearless Defenders #9 when some misguided but well-meaning misogynist club-members attempt to prevent Val & Misty carrying on with their Defendering both Jack Russell/The Werewolf (who?) and Cannonball turn up as Dani Moonstar's paramours. Good on that woman, etc.
  
• Boom Boom-Rictor: and I thought that last one would be explosive
  
• Rictor-Wolfsbane: as per X-Factor if nothing else
  
• Wolfsbane-Hrimhari: they set out on a merry bout of fucking from 10 onwards (until they're nearly killed by censorious Jotun)
  
• Wolfsbane-Elixir: which led Rahne getting sacked (I'm glad to see Xavier's installed some ethical standards eventually)
  
• Rictor-Shatterstar: as per X-Factor! yay Peter David! boo Rob Liefeld!
  
• Velocidad-Hope: Presumably?
  
• No Girl-Zero: depending how you interpret Martha's corporealisation in Generation Hope
  
• Cypher-Roulette: I actually disagree with this one, as per my post on the issue. I should strike it out.
  
• Magma-Empath: yeah, presumably
  
• Storm-Wolverine: Per recent Wolverine and the X-Men, if not before.
  

Things to add in future iterations:

• Captain Britain-Meggan: Per Excalibur S.E.
  
• Captain Britain-Courtney Ross: Per Excalibur #1
  

Things to look for

• Nightcrawler-Meggan: She has been trying to seduce him, but as far as Excalibur #11 hasn't.
