  2. Summary

    The stories in this series are a continuation of the XF after Season 11. Each story can be read as a standalone. They are canon compliant.

    What they have in common: Scully’s pregnancy at the end of season 11 resulted in the birth of a normal child, a daughter named Katie. Mulder is the father. Scully retired from the FBI to be a stay-at-home mom until Katie is no longer a preschooler. Mulder continues to work for the FBI with a new partner, 24-year-old Matthew Somers. Skinner recovered from his injuries in MSIV and is Deputy Director.

    Most of the stories in this series are MOTW case files with an occasional mytharc-related episode.

    Summary

    Deep down, Mulder knew that if they were entangled even more tightly, he’d eventually become more irritated than aroused by her voice. He’d hear it in reference to uneaten vegetables and unopened mail and unfolded laundry. That holy righteous rage of hers, that unquenchable fire that roared at him to be better and do better and live better, would illuminate not just his career but the entirety of his being. And he doubted he could live up to that scrutiny. After almost almost getting her killed any number of times, somehow Mulder knew that asking her to forgive more mundane betrayals would be the final straw. Abduction? Possession? Cannibalism? All in a day’s work. Leaving sunflower shells everywhere? That was a bridge too far. It was better, safer, sweeter, kinder to love each other the way they did. To keep some mystery alive, and with it her steadfast belief in him. Delaying consummation was delaying his inevitable disappointment of her.

    Inspired by Lepusarcticus' beautifully-written series "Incrementum," a series of interlinked, internally-consistent, episodic MSR vignettes in roughly canonical order.

    Summary

    Eddie Van Blundht, or rather, the tree that fell in the forest that both he and Scully had been pretending they hadn't heard... but it had definitely made a noise. A loud one. One that left a deafening echo, really, that lingered in the air between all of their interactions since. Some unspeakable sonic boom that made Mulder's ears ring so bad it had been keeping him up at night. He watched her now, across the office, the slant of the late afternoon light cutting her clean through the middle, only to be seemingly absorbed into its own wound. Scully wouldn't use a word like cleave to describe it, but it's how it looked to Mulder -- how it felt.

    (Follow up to Small Potatoes because if they're never going to talk about it again, I WILL)

    Summary

    “The issue, Mulder,” she interjected, before he could quote her undergraduate thesis to her, “Is that such things would exist outside the nature of the Universe as we perceive it. Alternate realities are absolutely improvable, so far as science can ‘prove’ anything—and so they’d have to remain hypothetical, regardless of their existence or nonexistence.”
    In the dark, she only felt him shift closer. “You know, Scully, when you say things like that, I just can’t help myself.”

    Mulder and Scully wait for daybreak in the White Mountains, retracing their steps.

    Summary

    There was something about sitting in the dark with someone, in the cab of a sedan at night. Two beings, side by side, collected together in shadow. Dim light cast from a half-moon or a distant streetlamp scarcely catching silhouettes, car parked determinedly out of sight, engine cold. There was something anonymous about it. Clandestine. As if time, and usual protective walls, ceased to exist.

    Follow Mulder and Scully, as their relationship unfolds then folds back in on itself, as they sit together - over many seasons of stakeouts.

    What can happen in the dark?

    Written for the 2021 X-Files SMUT exchange. Yes, it's that kind of story, so buckle up.
