Where do they go from here? Back to their separate apartments, their separate but entangled lives, their shared basement with one desk and windows that look up and out at nothing but a brick wall?

Summary
He pulled himself up straight and met her eye, a sheepish smile tugging at his lips. "You're right, o'course. Forgive me. It's just," he faltered, opened his mouth and closed it again, then made a helpless gesture into the air, "You're so..."
"Weird?" she offered jokingly when he didn't finish his sentence. "Stubborn? Big-mouthed?"
"No," Erend rasped, his steel blue eyes gleaming with equal parts alcohol and affection. "You're beautifully fierce, and fiercely beautiful."

Summary
She could stop this right now, and their partnership would remain beyond reproach. There would be a few awkward weeks, but they'd put this night in the box labeled 'Things Never to Talk About,' and they'd move on. Like they always do.
Except, she'd die an old, lonely maid because there would never be another man who could set her soul on fire the way Mulder does.
She'd always be chasing that fire.

Summary
He’s all too aware of the realization that Scully would’ve kissed him– Eddie– had he not interfered. In the seconds after he broke into her apartment and saw his doppelgänger hovering over her, he was almost in disbelief at how willing she appeared to let him kiss her. In the aftermath of it all, however, he just kept telling himself that it wasn’t really him that she wanted to kiss. It was some romanticized version of him made up by Eddie, coupled with her lowered inhibitions from the alcohol.
Originally posted on Tumblr. Rating changed from Teen to Mature because of chapter 2.

Summary
It's Scully's birthday and the day before they leave to investigate the case at The Falls of Arcadia. This is basically my take on what could have happened to explain why Scully wasn't entirely happy with the case in the beginning.

Summary
“I’m a woman, Mulder, a flesh-and-blood woman, and I need someone to see me that way, because even I… even I…,” suddenly she’s dwindling, turning inside herself like blouse tumbled too long in the dryer. She blinks to keep the tears from flowing, looking to the ceiling, the floor, anywhere but to his face.
“You’re wrong, Scully. You’re so wrong,” he can’t keep the tortured tone from bleeding into his voice, seeping into the air, “I see you as a woman, Scully. I see you so much as a goddamn woman, it devastates me. You take my fucking breath away, Scully. I HAVE to compartmentalize my view of you, I have to pull back and look at you as my partner, my friend, because if I didn’t, it would completely overwhelm me, it would absolutely ruin me every damn time I’m in the same room as you.”

Summary
The lines between reality and dreams, truth and lies are blurred to the point that Mulder and Scully cannot distinguish one from another and how to right a world turned upside down for their professional and personal lives. The only thing they know is that life is short and the only thing they have is each other.
