The X-Files Episode Fanfic Exchange (2020)
For The X-Files Fanfiction Exchange everyone writes a prompt for a story they want following a certain theme, and then using a randomization website, they receive someone else's prompt that they'll write while their own prompt gets written! These are the results!
Theme: Fans had to choose an episode from the series (excluding the episodes already used in the 2019 Episode Exchange) and write a prompt based on the events of the episode. Some are canon-compliant, others are canon-divergent.

One shot based on the quarantine that happened after season 2, episode 9, Firewalker.
