    Four times having a governor module fucking sucked, plus one time [REDACTED: FILE MISSING].

    (Or: Murderbot has Emotions for 8,000 words. ART tries to help. So does Dr. Mensah, but like, in a decidedly less assholish way.)

    Summary

    Written with MustangSally, who is not yet on the archive.

    Painted across the barren and desolate reaches of Texas, the shadows of the Project put additional pressure on Scully and Mulder's already fragile relationship. After a hostage crisis raises more questions about the Project's breeding program, Scully begins her own investigation, leaving Mulder to choose between saving her and saving himself. Finally, the investigation leads to tragedy and Mulder and Scully find that more questions have been asked than answered.

    The title reference was to an island mentioned in Medea, to which we turned for fairly obvious reasons.

    Take the warning seriously: extreme violence, including the death of children.

    Summary

    George Miles is a refined, discreet tailor raised by English parents during World War II. Since immigrating to Brooklyn in the '60s he has lived the American Dream by working hard and treating others well. He is a very talented stitcher, wonderful mentor to his assistant Eduardo, and devoted fan of ridiculous American television dramas.

    There are only two things even remotely out of the ordinary about Mr. Miles. To start, he was born under another name, one he presumed was lost forever. Secondly, his clientele are the most exclusive assembly in the world.
    The entirety of George's life may be condensed in this simple question:

    How on earth does somebody become the tailor for the Avengers?
