Summary
In the aftermath of Amor Fati, Mulder and Scully seem to be on the verge of something new. Scully decides to spend a quiet weekend at home in her own company, in part to think over their changing relationship. Scully’s plans for time to herself are torpedoed by Mulder calling her throughout the weekend.
“Ma’am, I’ve had reports that an unlicensed plumber has been working in your apartment. Do you require any medical assistance?
He affects a southern twang, one that reminds her of an officer they’d met in Clover County, Texas, over the summer.
“Are you offering unlicensed medical assistance Mulder? I’ve finished the plumbing. Successfully, mind you. Now I’m baking.”
This is a completed story.

Summary
Mulder joins Scully for a family dinner at Maggie's house.
"It’s early December and there is snow on the roads as they begin their drive out to Baltimore, late on a Sunday afternoon. Scully drives; she's more confident than he is in the snow. He’s not sure she’s a better driver in bad conditions than he is, but she is more confident. She seems to relish checking the tread on her tires, continually assessing her traction. He likes having the chance to watch her a little, while she drives and they talk. She’s wearing a soft, dark-grey button up sweater, and the pearl earrings she often seems to wear to dinner at her mother’s house."

Summary
Late season 6, Scully comes to a sudden realization about Mulder's feelings for her while in the middle of a Bureau policy meeting. Part of my 'The Work of an Instant' series.
"It will never get old. Scully will never get over this: the feeling of walking down the hall together, of being in sync with one another, of walking into the fire together. Even when the fire is utterly mundane, an internal policy review meeting on the second floor of the Hoover Building. She listens to the click of their shoes on the floor and feels Mulder’s hand on her lower back as they approach the doors at the back of the auditorium and feels—as she often does beside him—that she is exactly where she is meant to be."

Summary
In 'Fierce Midsummer All Ablaze', Mulder & Scully develop a standing agreement to attend events as each other’s ‘plus one’ when requested. The story follows them as they attend weddings, minor surgery, funerals, and family events together.
'Certain Obscure Things' is an alternative ending to/extension of 'Fierce Midsummer All Ablaze'. In 'Certain Obscure Things', Scully agrees to go as Mulder’s guest on a trip to Oxford, to visit his old friend and mentor John.
This story diverges midway through Chapter 5 of 'Fierce Midsummer', at the point at which Mulder & Scully go to bed on their second night in Greenwich. If you want to read 'Fierce Midsummer' with the alternate ending, switch at that point to 'Certain Obscure Things'.
